[ecookie]

totoro_bb: heard that similac is a good follow up milk. but my boy drinking friso so not sure if continue friso 2 or switch to similac

 

[gingerleaf]

totoro, sept mummies seems to be raving abt similac, but like eccokie, my gal is dong fine on friso, so i might juz cont with it.

 

[babywoes]

ecookie,

my boy is also on Friso! Could that be the reason for their 'similar' symptoms? I'm also thinking of continuing Friso 2 or Similac Stage 2.

Nowadays, my boy will fuss alot when drinking milk. Have to coax him to finish. So I'm wondering if he's getting sick of the taste.

 

[ecookie]

bbwow: my boy has been drinking slower .. not sure if tired of smell or distracted by environmt or need to change teat. but so far still drinking okie..

 

[gingerleaf]

bbwow/ eccokie,
issit juz a passing phrase?

 

[joshmummy]

totoro,

my older boy have been drinking enfa since baby..he loves it alot duno is it the milk taste great or he just simply loves to drink..guess for jerric will proberly let him try enfapro when mummy has no more supply of BM for him.. Hmm.. i also heard alot of mummies give their babies drink similac..

 

[gingerleaf]

dodo, weather clearing up!
hehehe. Are u still going?

 

[totoro_bb]

Weather update
No more Rain in Orchard at the moment !! hee hee ginger let me know if u going hor ... I only want the thermal suit for my girl.

FM
My gal also drinking Friso 1. I have realized that Friso 2 was not a common follow-up FM and I did some comparision and really those SA, AA thingy are indeed different.
Anyone heard any feedback on the mamilGold 2.. ??

 

[sypt19]

i am giving my boy enfapro

 

[polaris]

Hi,
my boy is on Friso gold 1 now. can we just switch to a different brand (eg similac) for follow up?

 

[sypt19]

YL can ... no prob

 

[zinterz]

hihi,

been trying to follow posts but too bz..

my bb on friso gold 1 too, but only once a day, BM for the remaining feeds.. friso can only last till 6M.. wonder what's a good follow up milk?

 

[babywoes]

gingerleaf,

no sure if it's a passing phase but indeed my boy is drinking slower and longer too.

totoro,

what do you mean Friso 2 is different from other follow up milk? is it better? I dunno if should switch to Similac Stage 2 or stick to Friso follow up.

 

[gingerleaf]

Bought toys again >.< hehehe.

dodo,
where did u feed eventually? I had to sit down by the mannequin platform near the escalator alongside the uncle n maids to feed lyn!! Hahahahaha. So many ppl!

[junniezz]

hi all

many thks 2 all mummies 4your well wishes.

i jus pop-by office to settle some work, going back to nuh now. so grab sometime to go online.. really no time to read up &amp; i miss soooo much posts...

fyi, bb was admitted on 02 to 06.03.08 due high fever (40.5), they chkd &amp; said is 'lung infection'. so was discharged 06.03.08 &amp; given oral anti-biotic. but fever came back fm 06.03.08 onwards, but we were quite reluctant to send him back hospital cos he'll kanna 'plug' again which is v painful procedure for bb due his chubbiness as doc always has hard time finding his vein. unfortunately, fever swinging since then (39-40+ and side effect of anti-biotic = purging till his backside v pain &amp; v red, poor bb keep crying when passing motion), we got no choice but return to nuh nite of 09.03.08, &amp; since then he got admitted again. tis round they chkd &amp; told us is UTI (urinary tract infection) so he will need stronger anti-biotic for 10 days via plug!! bb kanna replug on 12/3 due blood clot &amp; foot swollen, now they plus his left hand...so far fever down, doc said will draw blood/urine tis few days to chk infection level...thereafter when he fully recover, surgeon will arrange to do scope &amp; see which method to opt (keyhole or cut) then will fix a date for operation... bb will need to go for surgery as he has left kidney urine reflux prblm grade 4/5 (tis operation is to prevent bad urine backflowing causing damage to his left kidney if future infection occur, we alr knw he has tis reflux prblm when sent bb for test 29/2 but doc didnt say need to operate jus told us bb needs take 5 yrs anti-biotic &amp; review condition, unfortunately, bb caught virus b4 anti-biotic cycle starts, hence, operation recommended). will catch up again when i got chance to nxt login.

 

[strawberrymum]
