cool_d: The booklet did say that 750ml is a guideline for the child's requirements. Since the booklet also mentioned that milk and other diary products (cheese, yoghurt) is an important source of calcium for our babies, I guess 750ml of milk will contain the amt of calcium needed for baby perday.
Currently lele only takes 2 feeds of milk perday. I think this is grossly not enough lor, esp since he dun even take cheese or other diary products daily. So I worked out w MIL to reduce porridge amount and feed milk in between porridge meals, so that lele can have at least 3 milk feeds per day!

milk requirements: Any mummies going to visit PD sometime soon? If yes, can shun bian ask about the 750ml/day requirement?
My personal opinion is, even if the amt of milk/day is not 750ml but there are other dairy products (such as cheese) in the diet at least some of the nutrition requirements(like calcium) are taken care of. Cos one slice of cheese=250ml of milk's calcium content.
I think baby needs lotsa milk at this stage cos they have wide range of nutritional needs that are found in formula milk...

for milk powder bought in Abbotts, do you all know that you all can collect the points and change for FREE milk powder? up to you to choose from a list one.. i think each bottle is 100 point.. when you have 1000 point, you can exchange for a FREE 400gm GAIN IQ (for example).. but you have to submit the receipt to Abbott if you are not buying online la.. 
they only accept receipts from stores like FP, shop & Save, etc..

hi... so what do I do if allergy comes out after eating egg white? Any advise?
I had him eat my egg when we were in Tokyo and he was 7 months, his face turned red!!!! Didnt know what to do.... I am a bit afraid that it happens the 2nd time.
aprilmum- let her try the cheese. At first, my boy did not like it until he tried it 2nd time. I bought edam cheese which we adults also eat. Avoid goat cheese, blue cheeese. I would give my son a thin slice every morning and he is taking 2 - 3 thin small slices by himself every a.m.
he is beginning to hate porridge so i stopped it, lately, he has been eating rice with dish (chicken, pork, fish, meat) with a bit of soup so it is not dry at all. He enjoys it more than porridge. I feel so rejected when he stopped eating porridge but now happy since he eats like us hahah

most kids take d mmr vaccine well. nowady most vaccines are very well improved to reduce chances of side effects. unless d child is 'confirmed/proven' to hv real alllergy to egg, d mmr vaccine shd b safe.
2 milk feeds a day now may seem a little but usually wen u ask pd n now tat they can eat solids beta, they wld tell u is ok.
some bb/kids are jus not milk lover.
i alwy tell my pd tat cher is so small size (like not growing much), he assured me is ok, she is healthy, happy, milestones are met. she eats right? then is ok..
sources of nutrients:
calcium: tofu, beans, green vege, other diary pdts
iron: beef, green leafy vege
vitamins: whole / mix grains rice, cereal
dha/aa: grains, fish
carbo: rice, bread, pasta
protein: chicken, meat, fish, beans
Sahms:
what do u all eat for lunch? i dun mind cooking (if i hv more tx) but i dun really like washing hinting to hb to consider buying a dishwasher if we move hse
becos i m bfg, i hv to eat. so usually is porridge, 1 vege (me vege lover) n somtx stir fry chicken or steam fish (depend on wat is in d fridge). my menu n schedule v much depend on cher's schedule. some lazy days, i ta bao fr coffee shop. once a while, i brg cher out for lunch in town.
i do miss lunching out w colleagues, go to amoy for famous fish soup, some days travelled to shopping malls n enjoy jap food etc. n wen boss gd mood, buy us gd lunch at crystal jade, jack place etc... if even beta mood, gave us $100 n ask us (2 to 3 of us) to buy ourselves gd lunch. keke..

disney,
my older boy definitely loves rice more than porride too. once he started to eat/chew well, i gave him rice n fr then on, porridge is 'yucks' to him. wen he wa syounger, i hv to cook a soup to go along w d rice. most food he can take well excpet hv to cut into tiny pcs till he was older.
7m is a bit early to start egg. egg is a highly allergenic food. u can try agn now but give very small amt. best is try w egg yolk 1st for 3 days. if ok, u can try d white.

aprilmum,
i try to 'experiment' w different ingredients n porridge menu for cher. wen ash was older then n can chew well, i even 'create' my own meatballs, oven baked mango chicken etc etc... very fun but w no. 2, i seem quite lazy....
i try to ensure is a balanced meal tat is i include food fr different food gp n varieties, so tat she gets a variety of nutrients.
eg: porridge is carbo, fish is protien, dark grren vege is iron n calcium. fruits is apple. next day is plum or banana. i try not to hv combination of potato or sweet potato w rice/porridge in 1 meal as too much carbo, heavy for their digestive system.

Sanrio: Thanks for your detailed explanation on nutrition! Really appreciate it!
Lele is a milk lover, but my MIL will feed him one big soup bowl of porridge and then not feed him anything (except sometimes a piece of fruit) till FIVE hours later... ... ...
If you remember, I was quite worried since some time ago that lele is not taking enough milk. My main worry is that Lele might not be getting enough nutrients since he feed so few times. And it's not because he is a poor eater or what. He loves eating! But MIL has this MORTAL FEAR of overfeeding him, so only feed when it's "time".
Now after reading the HPB recommendation for milk requirements, I am more convinced that Lele really should be given more milk feeds than we allow him. So discussed w MIL to reduce porridge feed to about half bowl and then feed milk 3 hours later.

Augleo.. got some qn to ask you:
from the steps you posted.. do you steam pasta with water? or you meant to steam the pasta first then steam it again with 10ml of water? sorry , abit confused by your steps
Btw, mummies, can we juz place a piece of chese on top of pasta then bring it to steam?
think old ppl don't fancy giving cheese to baby yet.

sanrio- thanks. will try.
About Cheese, The "safest" types of cheeses are Cottage cheese, ricotta, cream cheese, processed cheeses and hard cheeses like cheddar and parmesan. Cultured dairy products like yogurt are generally considered to be safe for both a baby and a pregnant woman. Check the labels on the cheese products you buy and ensure they are wither cultured or made from pastuerised milk products!
Avoid Brie, Feta, Camembert, Roquefort, and Bleu Cheese They are called "soft" cheeses meaning made from raw milk.
Kate - i give to my boy every am, just a few slices or peel of cheese and he eats it plainly. It is dry for us but not for them. I saw one of the 11month old babies eating like that so i tried it with my boy and he likes it. I think it's just a trial & erros. He might not like it first but 2nd time he ate it, he loves it.

cool_d: I think if diff to hit 750ml it should be fine. Since it's just a guideline. How much does J drink per feed? Lele drinks 250ml per feed, 2 feeds per day, early morning and bf. If I increase to one more feed at tea and one more before sleep, then will be able to increase to 750ml le.
Disney, min: why dun they fancy giving cheese? I asked my MIL to give cheese to lele. At 1st she was hesitant but later she decided to give. Is it because it's something "western"? My MIL always say that nowadays we add all sorts of stuff to baby food but last time just porridge, fish, spinach, carrot, potato and some pumpkin/sweet potato.
min: so far I only tried giving mash potato+broccoli+cheese combo once to lele Last Fri brot lele to east coast park so prepared for his lunch.
I used 3 baby potatoes, 2 stalks of broccoli and 1 slice of kraft processed cheese.
At first I thought should be enough, but he fin le and cried for more food, so I gave some milk (150ml).
Disney: Okay! Lemme try some plain cheese on Lele by this week

min: now that you mention it, my MIL was a bit surprised when I gave lele brocco and cauli. But now she will give almost every day, after she see that lele suffered no ill effects from eating these foods. Even brinjal she did not allow me to give, so I dun give lor. But next day whe heard from radio programme that brinjal very nutritious but might be harder to digest (so dun give too often/too much). So she agreed to give brinjal.
It's a matter of getting used to new ideas...
Wonder how WE will react when we reach MIL/granny stage...... ...... will be interesting:S

kate - i dunno also. i just know they are conservative. Some things they haven't tried, they will not risk. I think they have good intention but shld be educated. For us, we just have to know the risk, pro/cons of the food before we give and if we find it rational, logical, then ok. But these days, we have to be more creative bec toddlers get bore easily with the food they eat. However, a few rules still apply:
- if you do not let them taste sugar, they will never know how a sugar tastes like So, stay awy from sweets at this early stage.
- if you do not give them too many choices, they will not know they have choices at this early stage.
