Since we are at the topic of porridge, just share what I'm doing with my darling boy. We give him a variety or fish, chicken meat and pork. Vegetables, like broccoli, spinach, peas, carrots, pumpkin, potato, xiao bai cai are also added.
Our method of cooking is very simple. we simply wash the rice (either brown, or white, or mixed) and cook it over the stove, when it boils, we switch it to the slow cooker and add in the ingredients. We cook fish/ pork stock to cook the porridge.
The pork/ chicken are chopped up with a cleaver till it becomes like minced meat. then added in. for fish, we just cut into slices and put in.
Root veg will be cut up and put in to cook. FOr leafy vegetables, I used to cook and puree them. but nowadays, i chop them up and add them in to cook.
I also change the menu by skipping the porridge, just simply giving meat with root veg.. he seems to take it well. Also gave him mee suah (must wash many many times) and kway teoh.
FOr mummies with babies yet to sleep thru the night, we must treasure the time when baby still needs us... hahaha... console myself.
Lentils... i bought a pack, yet to try.. maybe will do so next weekend.. this weekend is packed.
Poochi, did u call for the Gymboree?

my boy also fell and he bumped on the back of his head I think 2 months ago ... It was my fault: he was sitting on my lap, and I was tyring to grap the toy piano for him with both of my hands, and "bong!" he went backback and hit on the carpet. It was so loud that my hb could even hear from downstair. I was so worried that he may suffer brain injury or what cos' quite loud leh ....but my hb said it's very commone for bb to fall on their heads cos' that's the heaviest part of the body, and we brought him to the PD, and she also said that babies though look fragile, they are actually very tough, especially on the head, and the brain is protected by their skull which is pretty capable of doing its job in protecting the brain, and that's what's it is for. Was told that brain injury has to be very very high impact, normal fall is fine. She even told me that one mommy sent her bb about 9 months to her cos' she fell from the shopping cart with head down first and also no problem .....Babies are pretty "nai yong" as my friends say ...haaa.....I was told that if babies fall, especially on their head, as long as they cry out loud, they are fine....the worry is that when they don't cry ....it can be a concern ....
regarding baby food
I just dump everything inside,and make into one pot mixed with carrots, califlower, avocado, zuccini, banana, and pear ..... just throw everything in that I can think of ....usually I steamed all the veg and fruits first ...mash them with fork ...and cook the rice cereal separately and when done, put in the mashed veg and fruit and mix them up ....like a gluey paste ...yucky !! but he manage to finish all ... I gave him 4 meals a day the same gluey paste .....hope it's not too much though ...want Ethan to put on weight leh ..he is now only 7.5kg ...still under weight ...haiz .... I have not started using pork or chicken yet ...

mummies,
juz to check, how much porridge are you giving your bbs now? i measure mine by the little cup that comes with the DOM bottle, he takes abt 3/4 of that cup for every meal (one day twice), is it too much?
cooking porridge:
mine's very simple, i juz dump the lean pork meat into the slow cooker with hot water, then follow by 1 or 2 veg (usually it's sweet potato, pumpkin, carrot, butternut squash, carrot, spinach, broccoli) then 1hr later, throw in the rice grains (either white, brown or mixed)..the porridge will be ready in an hr's time. for broccoli or spinach, i will usually add in 10 to 15mins before i serve so that they are not overcooked. For fish, i only introduced threadfin so far, my mum will slice them for me and put them in the freezer, i will juz need to take out a piece, defrost and steam (or juz put inside the slow cooker for 10mins before serve), so far my boy eats whatever i cook. i haven't try chicken yet cos' he juz recovered from a cough.

BABY WALKER
Hi Mummies,
Kiros has been stepping on the 'x' of his walker and then lean forward to try pick things on the floor.
I can forsee that he is going to fall out from his walker if he continues to do that or if not under supervision. So if yr babies are using walkers, do watch out for this.

Hi Patty,
really been very long.. If i am not mistaken, you were the only mummy with twins when the Nov07 thread jus started right?
Yr gals are so fair. And identical. I couldnt tell any difference at all.
I have a pair of indetical twin nephew and a pair of non-identical twin nephew. And they dont look identical.

Kitty, u can bring Chloe overseas one! Look at Ueno, she is the most garung one.... Bought Leroy to Aust liao and now going to US in Aug! See, she gave us courage!
My Mum just lectured me on bringing Claire overseas! She told me no need to bring her to so many places coz Claire wont know about things. For me, i just wanna bring Claire to see things and be exposed to diff envt so that her immunity will be built up!

hi any mummy planning for bb 1st bdae bash??? whr to get to nice 3D cake... whr to had the party???
Hi Elaine,
I think ecreative has good range of 3D cake.
The blueberry flavoured cake is yummy. You can refer to the below link. http://www.ecreative.com.sg/
The only one thing i don't like is certain cartoon characters on their cakes look fake (like wrong colouring etc). That could be because they aren't the rightful/licensed shop to use that particular cartoon on cake.
Otehrwise all else are ok.

mambobb,
my gal likes tabs too! she'll purposely search out the tags in her stuffed toys and even bolster. geez. then also not so interested in toys as in the things we use..ie remote control, books, papers, hp etc etc
porridge:
my mil started Eliza on porridge a few weeks back and she's taking to it well. pumpkin & sweet potatoes are the preferred vegs. usually we cook the porridge in pork stock with 1 or 2 veg...and then i'll eat up the pork lo. i realized the spinach makes it taste a little bitter. also, after half bowl of porridge we'll have to distract Eliza to eat, ie open drawers to let her check out, use clothes pegs to distract her etc. hai....sometimes i feed until pekchek but she still eats, so it's good lah.

My PD said by now he should eat about 4 tablespoons of rice cereals but I only give 1 tablespoon, and the rest I mix with veg all about 3-4 tablespoon bah ....now you tell me your bb eat the DOM cup 3/4, then I must be given Ethan too much liao .....by the way , mommies , how much should they eat?

shane, to my understanding for babies now, milk is still their main source of nutrients and solids juz complementary.....so mebbe u shud feed him more milk than solids? i dunno... tat's what my mum tells me lah.
and compared to ethan, kaira drinking alot of milk leh ... aiyo ... now i worry if she's drinking too much! she drink 4x6oz a day sometimes 5x depending on how hungry she is! she has lunch and dinner (usually porridge, 3/4 of a combi bowl). and a snack mid afternoon (usually some fruit e.g. avocado/banana/apple. if she very hungry, then i give cereal.)

Hi Mummies,
then maybe i am overfeeding kiros? for 24 hour, he will have 6x milk, 1x fruit, 1x cereal, 1x porridge.
His fruits are pretty standard. Either banana, or apple, or pear or avocado. This i use spoon to scrap.
His cereal will either be nestle brown rice, or nestle rice and veg, or nestle rice and chicken.
As for porridge will go with spinach, or carrot, or potato, or pumpkin, or brocolli or plain with bovril.
I really run out of ideas on what to give him liao. Sooner later he will be bored by the same 'dish'.

pig, me so run out of ideas for porridge .... yesterday juz bot tofu... next week will try adding the tofu into the porridge.
today i tried to make something different....but not very successful ...heehee. i shredded potato and boiled then. then shred cheddar cheese over it and baked it for kaira.... but the cheese, when cooled...became quite sticky...i scared she choke... any mummies tried giving cheese, in particular cheddar, to your babies before? any advice?
maybe i shud juz grate the cheese and let her have them straight. but i wanted to "spice" up the potatoe cos she doesn't really like potatoes....

Hi dreamer,
for potato kiros will eat it either scrapped and spoonfed, or smashed and mix with his porridge.
The one time when it was scrapped was actually my portion from my carrot and potato soup. I suppose it's slightly salty hence he liked it. But i do understand that salt is out until at least 1 year old.
Last friday he tried whipped potato from kfc. Gravy only very very little.
According to my mum, potato is hard to digest, hence try to give it earlier part of the day.
If you want the cheese to melt, you can try mozarella cheese? I think places use such cheese for their potato gratin?

pig -- i bot the plain ones. i bot one soft and one firm ... dun realli know the difference...so going to try them out.... think the egg tofu will give it a miss...cos i dunno if they use whole egg or juz egg yolk? cos egg white supposed to be after 1 year old i think...
mozarella can give them? actually i also thinking of it. but dunno if can or not? maybe i try parmesan ... see if it works better.

Pig, salt is out till 10 mths old!
Dreamer, mabbe the weather in ndl makes Kaira wanna eat more? Assuming that its not as hot and humid in Spore?
Shane, mabbe u can try this with Ethan, I fed Claire rice cereal with equal portion of milk powder. So, i will feed her 6 scoops of rice cereal + 6 scoops of milk powder... Sometimes, i will add in mashed bananas or apples...

dreamer,
kaira has found her match, hee. My gal also drinks 4 x 6oz (first feed of the day is 7oz!) on top of her lunch + dinner and snacks! Maybe cos Kaira is tall, cos weight i think not so impt so long is of a gd proportionate weight. Mine also approaching 9kg
Shane,
thanks - she always hv some knocks here n there & we take it quite alright, but this time think i more gan cheong, glad its over and she is ok again.
Kittybride
sorry for the change of plans on my side too, hope to pick up the PP stuffs by then, cos one of the items is meant as a gift.
Re: serving size
I saw my measuring spoon says 15ml = 1 tbsp (tablespoon) so I suppose this is int'l standard? Cos i usually use 1 scoop of this amt rice grain and throw in at least 3 types of vege incl 1 fish to double broil. And it can amt to quite a lot. Sometimes I use 2 portions to cook 2 meals at 1 go, hee. But I realise she is harder to please now, so will hv to give some variety in order to entice her to eat more.

Matt seems to have grown. What's his weight now?
Poissons,
Aiyo, Garreth has this cheeky look. You are right, he wont be mistaken as a gal anyhow. confirm the boy boy look.
Mandy,
where did you bring yr gal to? She is all wrapped up and yet so happy. Btw, what's her name?

pig,
Matt's about 8kg now. He was 68cm and 7.7kg at 7 months. He looks chubby although he is actually not that heavy.
He doesnt like to crawl. Keep wanting to stand up instead. He just learnt to hold himself up on the sofa over the wkend. So active, I am so tired after every wkend when I take care of him myself.

shane,
you said "then Ethan will anyhow eat cos she will anyhow eat him", you meant feed him? hohoho...make me LOL!
dreamer & pig07,
my gal also drinks 5x 6oz of milk a day as well, with 2 meals (lunch & dinner), plus fruits in the midday. my friend commented that my gal is like eating all the time. milk, 2hrs later lunch, 2 hrs later milk, 2 hrs later dinner, 2 hrs later bedtime milk. but thank God she's not too heavy..i think it's cos she was sick twice previously, and that slowed her weight gain. now she's abt 7.9+kg.
aiyah..now she dio4 this fake measles virus and greatly cut her milk intake these few days..no appetite to eat her cereals also. so i think she'll stay this weight for a while...else i thought i was feeling that she was getting her double chin back.
