Tweety,
Regarding e tea session, feel like joining u all but i got a problem. Never tried to bring my elder son (19mth) n my bb gal out alone. Only on weekends when my hubby is free then we go shopping. Cos my son sometimes still nids me to carry him. Anybody has this prob?

Cindy, can lah. I asked both PD and lactation consultant before. So I need to colour lor..alot of white hair liao.
Tinkabel, aunty sadiah is good. She is honest and skilful. I recommended her to my cousin liao.
Cindy, donno leh. A little nervous. I donno why. May be I am afraid rejection of either bottle or breast subsequently. Very tense..sound silly I know
Tweety, where are we getting our cakes on 17th Dec?

ladies, for my previous confinement, i went for cut and colour the moment the confinement ended! was giving my son EBM that time. no probs lah.
adeline, i'm like you. Elder son is 19mths older than my girl. My son is very active so there is no way i am going to go out with both kids by myself. My hubby must be there to control him! i have seen some mommies out with 2 kids by themselves and i envy them. How do they do it???

rast, S@L looking for u?
did u say poly 5 in 1 costs $290
She checked out sengkang it costs $350
I think may be because u asked clementi which is under NHG. Sengkang is under singhealth and so there is a price difference. I suspect.
Tinkabel, is ok. I asked before. I am trying ebm bottle feed later this afternoon so that I can go to salon this week.
Rast, don worry as long as he is healthy. By the way, I asked the aunty sadiah on your massage lady 's comment. She said normal. She touched u so all the wind passed to her. So she burped. I still find it strange and unacceptable but Mdm Sadiah looks very sane so I have to trust her.

Sabrina / Cindy,
I checked w my hospital nursery and like Cindy said, once expressed, must consume within 4 hrs in room temp. But once fed to baby , must finish within an hour, or throw away after.
Rast, my baby's even smaller than yours. Now 3 weeks old and last weighed, was only 2.75kg. So sad and can't wait to get him to put on more weight.

Poissons,
My baby is now about 2.8kg or so and drinks 70-80ml every 2-3 hrs. That seems very little. And he sometimes cries one after after his feed. Does that mean I need to increase his feeding volume?

Adeline,
Try to come to tea session if you can handle it. There will be other mommies to help out. I think it would be good practice to try to take the kids out on your own. I have been taking my 3 out on my own for the past week. So far no major problems.
Cake & tea session.
Can mommies bring some cakes?? I will getting 2 platters of sandwiches and tea & coffee. So far we haven't ordered anything or organised anything on the cake front. I thought it would be good idea and fairer for mommies to bring a small cake to share. Maybe theres a brand that you like and would like to share with rest of us. Please indicate on your name if you are bringing cakes.

S@L,
i went to clementi polyclinic, they're under NHG. only NHG have 6-in-1 and 5-in-1 pkg, but singhealth only have 5-in-1, cos last time i called to check with both clinics. where u stay? NHG they have a few branches : ang mo kio, bukit batok, choa chu kang, clementi, hougang, jurong, toa payoh, woodlands and yishun. or u can also go to their website: www.nhgp.com.sg

Cindy,
That's right. I think once it's fed, you may be introducing germs into the bottle and must be finished within the hour or discarded. Cannot be rewarmed and refed. I wish it could.
Sometimes feel so heartache to see my BM being discarded.

Re: cranky babies
seems like its a stage they will go thru cos sinc yday my gal also wants to be carried and slept little in the daytime..nt like first few weeks....maybe she tuning her US timing to Spore timing liao...heehehe....
Dokie, u didnt intro btl for ur elder son? why so tense? hhehee...i already intro a few btl esp these few days cos she kept falling asleep when suckle and wake again to be fed..i cant do my things and cant pump /empty breasts properly....
but still prefer her to latch at night and when going out cos no need to bring so many barang...so far she is ok with btl and latch...but can see she still prefer to latch cos sometimes will cry for a while with btl in her mouth...but one opposite to some babies here, Mischa can drink quite fast with btl ard 5min she can finish her 100ml.

Hi Tweety,
My boy has the same problem, he is 3 weeks old and have neonatal acne (rashes) and new milia on his forehead, face & neck. Aiyah not handsome for his full mth celebration liao. According to the website http://www.babycenter.com/0_symptom-guide-rash-or-skin-condition_1196431.bc the neonatal acne and milia should clear up on their own in a few weeks to max 3 mths time.

Adeline, ya but i scared soon she will nt wan to latch cos she get milk slower than from the btl.
Dokie, i using Avent and no problem le. she only pushed out with her tongue a few times for the 1st few times i intro btl..but eventually will suckle the teat.
Avent is said to be the closest to mummies nipples le...i tried for my son also he took btl quite well.
u need to try a few times la cos u have nt intro btl till now he definately dun like. but i advise must try lo otherwise u really no life.
tt day luckily i put aside a btl in the fridge and my hb helped me to feed ...cos i was busy in the toilet (hahaha) and i took real long to come out...otherwise bb would have starved..
Re: mothers milk tea
my fren swore by it but it seems alot mummies here dun find it useful. i m still taking it as a hot beverage although also dun see the incr in BM. maybe i didnt follow 3bags a day i only took as and when i feel like it. perhaps only suitable for some mummies.
A&J, my gal also have the milia spots on the forehead and can see some cradle cap on her eye brows (hopefully it doesnt spread to the scalp) i apply the calendula cream on the cradle cap and aloe vera on the milia. hope they go off soon...cos she nt pretty liao...

hahaa poissons:: i got the pillow from centrepoint's robinsons. The new toys and infant department at the topmost level. It's by babysafe. and i also got the positioner too, for use when he learns how to turn. but for now the pillow is really good. ahahha. And he sleeps better and longer with it I feel. ^^ My boy also sleeps to one side too much and i akready can see a bit flatter on that side. Maybe i'm imagining things hahaha. but didn't want to wait longer and didn't want to put him in sarong so i gave him the pillow, plus each time though i put him on the side he didn't want to sleep on, he'll turn back.
