Bena, think maybe it's because he hasn't drank milk lah ... cos his last feed was 7am. He was weighed at around 11.15 am. If he takes in another 160ml of milk, he should be 9kg cos 160ml = 160g = 0.16kg ... so if you add 0.16kg to his weight of 8.84kg, then it's just nice ... 9kg! Heeee
fitty nut: Tall meh? PD said he's proportionate leh ... didn't comment he's tall.

Vone: I am giving Jordan Nestle Brown Rice. Currently he's only tasted Nestle White Rice Cereal and Brown Rice Cereal ... these 2 are the Stage 1 cereals. Maybe when he's 8 months, I will introduce him other cereals like Nestle Fish / Chicken cereal ... will also be introducing him porridge then.
blueskye:
Oh! I havent tried Nestle Brown Rice Cereal. So far im on heinz cereal =D He likes it i finished 1 pack of it ^^ Moving on to the next pack ^^ Maybe i'll start feeding him brown rice soon

vone: i think the traditional thinking amongst chinese malay and indian pple is that u give solids by 3 months or so. THats why my MIL kept hounding me to give bb solids...really made it sound like im depriving my child....my own aunt added nestum to all her 3 kids' milk from 2 months onwards, she said then they slept through the night.
atinarin: my ILs also have been asking me when will i be introducing solids to dahlia, at every visit we make to their house. so far my husband has been standing by my side and telling them yes, eventually we will, just not yet.
a wise friend told me that if they say "oh last time i fed your husband chicken when he was 4 mths old!" i should answer "well last time policemen wore shorts, chicken rice only 10cents!" heh.
well i'll just breathe in and mentally tell myself theyre just excited to see their granddaughter grow up.

ecookie, atinarin & Fau Aiman,
Same here, when my bb was 4 mths my MIL already kept asking me when will i have to start my bb for solid.
So i told my husband to give the answer. Our answer is "doctor said our bb cannot take solid food now, must wait..."
Even now i just introduced my BB solid a week ago, my MIL already start saying today eat this tmr eat that, i told her "doctor said must eat the same food for one week
"
Whatever i always said "doctor said..." then this save lotz of arguement.

atinarin,
Actually i bought the one wif ikan bilis..
in fact no need to do the way my sis done...
She finds it no taste.. so she go n boil the water n then put in ikan bilis to let the real ikan bilis taste to "stay" in the boiled water..
(like the way to cook soup base).
after that then she uses the "water" to mix wif the brown rice n feed..
no need to cook the brown rice..

Mag,
Your sis use dried ikan bilis? Why hah? I thought it's quite unhygenic (have you seen how they sun them?), too salty, and also not as fresh as fresh fish?
Blue,
Wah your calculation so zhun one ah... hahahaha..
Atinarin, Vone,
Me too lor. Till today (I started Zac on solids 2 weeks back), my mum will still give me the accusing look and talk to zac sacarstically saying " Your mummy don't want to let you eat right?", as if I'm starving Zac. Very pek chek. Then now, when I insist on putting Zac on the high chair instead of the rocker when feeding him, my mum will complain and complain(at EVERY MEAL): "Why you put him on the high chair? He doesn't know how to sit yet lah. Let him stay semi inclined in the rocker. It's easier to feed lah." Tell you, I'm very pissed. Then she'll suggest that I feed this today and next tomorrow. When I told her the 4 day allergy test rule, she'll tell me : "Oh your dad's friend works in some hospital cooking for infants and kids, but she says we can feed the child anyhow we like because she followed all the rules and turned our her kids are skinny like monkeys.". Hello? What kind of logic is that?
When I was breastfeeding, she (my mum) had postnatal blues and insisted that I stop feeding zac from a cup when I couldn't latch on. In the end, I persevered and won the battle. Now she wants to interfere again. Dunno why she wants to make parenthood so difficult for me sometimes.

gingerleaf,
Yes, HT Brown Rice is much watery as compared to Heinz 1st Rice Cereal. I give my boy 10 teaspoon for HT Brown Rice, but only 7 teaspoon for Heinz 1st Rice Cereal to result with somehow similar consistency. I oso find that HT Brown Rice is much more coarser, more lumpy. My boy dun really like HT Brown Rice, so I put him back on Heinz. Only mix pureed to HT Brown Rice. Milk with Heinz Rice Cereal.

blue: i got some packets sample nestle rice cereal which PD gave me but i don't give nestle to Sam, if you want i can give it to u too, i must see the expiry date though. When want to meet to exchange the milk? I can meet you on wed or thurs for lunch.
Magoo: what type of brown rice you bought for Ayden?
Today i tried jar puree for Sam too as we went out 1 whole day. Tried Earth's Best organic jar puree, sweet potato, not really sweet, so i find it's good. Am going to stock up more, jar food for going out.

Hi all,
long time no post here already! Freaking busy with work since I went back to work in Feb. Hows everybody? I don't even have time to read the posts here...only peep a bit occasionally.
Need help! My friend is giving birth in August this year and she is looking for a confinement lady, anyone got any good recommendation? Mine wanted to charge her $2k which I find it rather expensive coz last year she only charge me $1.7k. So I told my friend I will help her ask around my forum friends. Can anyone help? Thanks in advanced!

Hi mummies
Re: Similac (Hey, quite alot of babies on Similac hor?)
I have switched Caelen to Similac from Friso. So far, his stool is much softer than Friso (texture is more of the BF type of stool) but not to the extent of lao shai
RE: Eu Yang Sang Brown Rice cereal
I also bought the EYS cereal for Caelen. ALternate between this and Dumex cereal. He is about to finish one tin already. Didn't have much problem cooking the cereal, I usually add 2 scoops of brown rice and 2 oz of warm water into a tiny saucepan and boil till it gets thicker. I then add 2-3 scoops of milk powder to the rice.
The key about the EYS brown rice is that it includes some Si Sen Powder which is supposedly good for baby's digestion. But if you buy normal brown rice, you can also just buy the medicinal powder and add.
Hi Blue, you have a good rest after your surgery
Hi arisz, hey, I also have a friend due in Aug! It's a baby gal
Hmm... I can pass you the contact for my CL but not sure if her price has increased also. She charged me $1.8K previously.

Hi mummies,
I've been feeding Faith Heinz rice cereal for over a week now and also started giving her apple puree. Will like to ask how much cereal do your babies take each meal? Currently Faith is taking 2 tbsp and about 140ml EBM after cereal. Wonder when I can just feed her cereal for 1 meal?
Also, Faith has been a notti girl at night. She wakes up almost every 2hrly! She will start making noise in her cot and will be tossing and turning but with her eyes closed. She can't be calmed down even after picking her up and carrying her, always have to resort to letting her latch on and then she will fall back to sleep. I don't think she is doing this bcos of hunger, she seems to be sucking for comfort. This has been going on for weeks! Is it due to teething? So far no signs of any teeth popping out lei...I'm so tired every night as I keep getting disturbed sleep and next week I'll be starting my new job so really hope to resolve this by this week.

Hi mummyfaith
I feed Caelen cereal in replacement of a meal. But I will add 3 more scoops of milk powder to the cereal so that it is more nutritious. I go by the milk powder type of scoops. Then must remember to feed more water cos' cereal has less liquid.
Caelen wakes up rather frequently at night for the longest time, for no apparent reason. I'm sorry I can't offer any solutions, I'm at my wits end myself. Please let me know if you found any sleep solutions. U would have saved my life heheee.
