i remember reading, a bb here waking up at 1am,4am,etc.. mine also has that pattern these few days.. its like 1+, 4+, 5+, 6+.. i dunno why is it like that..
btw, those babies sleeping thru the nite, wat r their milk timing n intake like.. time and amount.. eg: 1pm- 150ml, etc..
frisocrem, very nice smell and taste very nice.. ya books always say to give tasteless stuffs cos bb might reject bland food after tasting the sweet frisocrem.. but i tink as long they r young, we r the ones who control their food..

Hi hi.
I quite like Dr Ong from Aglow but he quite ex leh, more ex than Dr Ong EK
So still keeping an eye out for good PDs in the east (Any recommendations?)
I brought Caelen for his 4th month jab yesterday and boy was he cranky last night. Kept waking up (like hidayah's schedule) but refusing milk
Luckily got my PILs so they took half the night, we took half the night. This morning all cannot wake up, except baby. Urgghh!! I really hope it is due to the injection and not new pattern lor.
Hi low, I slowly increase the cereal from 1 to 2 to 3 or 4 teaspoons. Also increase it to twice a day too. The Heinz one, I added almost 1.5 to 2oz of milk in total to 3/4 teaspoons. Abit of aga-ration needed. But i added the milk in phases cos' the cereal consistency got thicker as time passed. As if the liquid was absorbed by the rice... didn't happen for the Nestle one.
I put him on the inclined bouncer. Tried putting him on the bumbo but he kept looking downwards and slouching so cannot feed properly. I don't have high chair yet, he is still too small for the chair. Looks very lost in it hehee..

I give Charlene rota, 5-in-1 n puconome jab all altogether maybe that is why she cranky and I agree Dr Ong is good but quite exp I spend 482 during my last visit!! My hubby was like saying so expensive but what to do.. I think baby health more important and maybe i am more careful and kasi mummy so prefer pd to gp hee..hee..

Hi Mummies,
I also go to Dr Ong at Aglow..He is really good compared to the PD at Paragon which my gynae recommended, and half the price.
Peapod,
Re feeding cereal, you really start very fast hor..on the 4 month dot!
What time did you feed Caelen the cereal? Do you feed his milk first?
Read that we are supposed to give them their milk first then give the cereal after they finish, coz otherwise they may not want to finish their milk which is supposed to be impt nutrients and main diet. And if they reduce their milk feeds too much they may be waking up in the middle of the night hungry.
Hi hidayah,
Could be yr baby is waking up so many times at night due to too much sleep in the day...my girl does that too when she has too long naps in the afternoon. Read that babies at 4 mths should only have a total of 3 hours of nap time during the day. Or it could be due to hunger...maybe its a growth spurt. Try to feed her more during the day feeds instead of feeding her in the middle of the night when she wake up, otherwise she will be encouraged to wake up at those ungodly timing.
My girl's feeding is every 3 hours during the day and she sleeps thru the night (usually) from 10.30pm to 7am:
7am - 5 oz
10am - 4.5oz
1pm - 4.5oz
4pm - 4.5oz
7pm - 4.5oz
10pm - 3.5oz

Initially I wanted to "upgrade" Jordan to the big bottles when he was taking 170 ml when he was 2 months +. But since then, his milk intake decreased and now we always feed him in "batches" (feed 100ml first and add another 30-50ml only when he finish) ... so end up still using small bottles.

Re bottles, I also switched to big bottle thinking that Jade will up her intake, but she is still eating the same amt, so switched back to small bottles for the time being. But dun think can use for very long already...coz 5oz almost to the brim already.
Pillow,
Agree with you! The big bottles are so gigantic...the milk only fill half the bottle like so little like that.
Atinarin,
Only pigeon has glass bottles I think. Or can get formula bottles from hospital, heard they give away. But I find them very heavy to use for feeding leh.
Hidayah,
Pinky's baby's feeding schedule is amazing...she eats only 4 times a day! Yet manages to sleep 12+ hours without waking up for milk!

Re: Cereals
I've also been given Nestle cereals sample from my GP when my hubby went to see him.... There's white rice and brown rice.... and its stated for 6 mths onwards.
Re: Fruits
So we can actually scrape the flesh of the fruit to feed it to baby? or to juice it and feed in bottle? If juicing it do we need to add water so its not too thick for baby or its ok?

When do babies have growth spurts?
Common times for growth spurts are during the first few days at home and around 7-10 days, 2-3 weeks, 4-6 weeks, 3 months, 4 months, 6 months and 9 months (more or less). Babies don't read calendars, however, so your baby may do things differently.

Rxsti,
Read its better to puree the fruits rather than juice it so that the fibre is taken too. You can use a food processor to puree fruits like apples, pears, bananas, etc. (take out the skin and cores). No need to add water. Feed by a spoon.

Hi charsiew,
My girl went thru that phase too! It could be the milk flowing too slow...try to use a faster teat and see how he reacts. Or it could be he is just in a slow growth phase and doesn't want to eat so much. I know how frustrating it is....it will pass soon.

hi angel, really? actually i hv tried searching for avent size 3 teats, but its out of stock at various places! can't find any.. we tried to poke some holes in the existing teats, but doesnt seem to help... any idea roughly how long will this 'phenomenon' end?? few wks? 1mth? haiz... tks!
charsiew, my girl also will get frustrated when drinking milk when shes about 2 mths.... cos she sucked till the teats went flat .... so i changed the teats to the next size #2. Shes ok now.
ANgel, i've got the combi feeding set, can use that to grind rite.... cos a small piece of fruit use a big blender it may not be able to blend. As long as the food is well smashed then its ok right?....
