JanBB, Kam, my #1 now also can sense, she loves to slam her head on my tummy. Then I got to gently tell her cannot, else will injure didi or mei mei. Dont know when she learn all the violent actions, either she slam herself, or she will kick me but sometimes she will also want me to hug her and she will lean on my tummy to sleep like a koala. I know when tum tum bigger then its going to be harder to carry her, but for now, will try to spend more time with her. Now before we both sleep, I will ask her to pat my tum tum and say good night to baby, which she loves.
Kam, I same as you le, for #1 I everything also avoid and try to cut down on cannot eat stuff. But for #2, either experience or bo chap, which I think is more bo chap, I everything also eat except raw food. Worse I have cravings for all the "cannot eat", like pineapple, coffee, soft drinks etc.
pixiepixel, you are very happening le. Bet your hubbie loves to go home all the time
JanBB, I also think my hubbie tired at work, even when he comes back SG for hols, its not rest its double hard work since got to entertain me and baby. Anyway, after #2, 1 boy and 1 girl very complete already for you
.
Superbee, wow June, thats really fast.

Sleeping pattern/position (only to those currently co-sleeping FULL time)
Would like to ask mommies who are cosleeping/bedsharing with your babies, how does ur baby sleep? For me, i nurse Rylee to sleep on our bed, then i'd roll off and have "me" time, like right now. But i watch her from the video monitor. She can sleep like a clock one leh, kept flipping, turning, say her original sleeping position is 12o clock, 2hours later, it's 6oclock liao. I'm wondering if babies sleeping in cots do the same or not? Is it becos she got so much space???

morning mummies!
mylife
xandall flips all over up down left right, sometimes slid onto the floor even...no clockwork turning. doesnt depends on time
fever
my boy has a viral fever last monday, and he recovered on thur, followed by cough and runny nose, even till today. but yest, my mil informed that his fever came back again, always 39.xx, just now she told me he was running fever between 38.9 to 39.4 throughout the night. bufen seems to help to lower down his temp but it will come up very high again.
issit teething huh? or issit virus came back again? if constantly high fever, and bufen doesnt seems to work, what can i do? sian, must take urgent leave and see doc again. if still cannot lower temp, must i go hosp?
1st time leh, high fever strikes within 2 weeks..super helpless

pixie,
It doesn't seem that it's due to teething leh. Anything >38.5C is considered high fever. Teething may, if at all, cause mild fever only. Do you monitor if the fever come and go at a regular time? If I were you, I will bring your child to see doc. Meanwhile, feed him lots and lots of fluid.

angelsky,
pineapple is okay leh (according to Mrs Wong, the lactation specialist at TMC). I eat 1 piece a day during weekdays.
My gynae told me it's safe for me to eat sashimi. She actually encourages me to eat more, cos I am instructed to eat fish at least 3x a week (so she didn't prescribe fish oil to me, get from natural source). But then the same gynae told my friend that she couldn't eat sashimi during her pregnancy. So guess it depends on individual, you may want to check with your gynae.

mylife,
i lie on the bed with lexie until she falls asleep then i roll off and do my own stuff.
she will flip and rotate everywhere on the bed. a couple of times she even flipped/rolled right off.
after i go to bed she still does that so she frequently kicks me or uses me as her pillow or wall to lean on.
i'm convinced it's because she needs so much space thats why she can't sleep in the cot and not the other way round.

mylife,
my hubby & i co-sleep with Jayden, i noticed that he also like to turn like a clock. Almost every nite, i will wake up (NOT 1 time is many times) to turn him back cos he can roll until legs hitting our face (which is your 6o clock position). Guess they juz shift & move their body to a more comfort zone. I realised if i hug him, he sleep better cos warmer as i onz aircon whole nite. Sometimes he flip here & there cos he wet his pants or hungry.
And also if my hubby or i wake up & wash up leaving him alone on the bed. He will just wake up after few minutes. Wonder how cum he so sensitive?? We always try to wake up quietly so as not to alert him but he still can sense it. Then he will get up & sit on the bed until i walk in & smile to me ; )

Yesterday bo eng so never really come in, so much to catch up on!
QQ,
My colleague told me 子宫环 not good. She personally uses it and says easy to get infection especially UTI (urinary tract infection).
Kam,
Agree with Pixiepixel. No need to cut down all carbo but take the good carbo instead of all those processed carbo. When I had #1, my gynae also say can eat pineapple and watermelon...the key is to eat all food in moderation. But he say better don't eat sashimi cos we won't know how fresh it is.
Re: Sleeping
mylife, I don't co-sleep but my boy sleeps like a clock too.
Anyway, my boy has "graduated" from sleep training...yipeee! Took us about 3 weeks since we started with weekend naps and bedtime only and have just asked in-laws to follow our method as well. Happy to say that we can now put him in the cot for naps and bedtime and he'll sleep on his own within 5-10 mins...no protests or crying. When we first started, he would cry for 45 mins to an hour before he fell alseep but gradually the crying/protests reduced and now he's even happy to go into the cot to sleep on his own and he actually naps better and longer this way. Really glad that we persisted and he adjusted well. So sleep training really works!

i also dont think its teething
fever comes fiercely at night, which is standard among our babies. he takes bufen, then temp will drop to 37.xx, and then few hours later, it will come back again. daytime will be temp around 38.xx, at night temp will be around 39.xx
fever comes and go at clockwork, yes. seems like bufen/neurofen doesnt seems to work anymore. maybe hit a plateau? will babies get new bouts of fever in each week like mine?

How abt watermelon? I'm really craving for cooling watermelon or juices leh. But heard too "liang" can't eat also. Heng, i dun fancy pineapple or sashimi at all even before preggie.
pixie
If u dun want to bring your boy to see doc yet, perhaps u want to ask your mum to boil "Ling yang" & feed your boy a few spoonful? It will reduce high fever. Think more likely is virus fever & it will go up & down for few days.

Got another question! Need ur advices! Usually rylee wakes up around 7ish, I'd lie on the bed and half sleeping watched over her. She'd play around (I hv babyproofed the bed) until around 8ish and I'll wakeup, nurse her 1st bf and prep bfast for her. Bath around 1030 and naps at 11ish. Lunch will be when she wakes up from her nap (depends). Today I dunno wat to do liao. She wokeup at 7am, I nursed her at 8am and she fell back asleep! Slept until 10am! Routne all haywire! My fren say cud be sleep growth spurt...how ah?

Pixiepixel,
I think mine is considered the cry-it-out method. My boy has regular naps at 10am and 3pm and bedtime is at 9pm. What I do is tell him it's time to nap/sleep and put him in his cot. He will cry/protests/scream/stand-up/throw his pacifier on the floor/etc and I will tell him it's time to nap and lay him down on the cot again. I will leave the room for awhile if it's difficult to watch him cry. Then go back in every 5-10 mins to repeat the process until he finally sleeps. For me, bedtime was easier since the last bottle of milk will usually make him drowsy. It gets easier with each day. Nowadays, I will tell him to sleep and lay him down in the cot and I will also lie down on my bed to rest. Sometimes he will sit up for awhile but most times he will just lie there to talk to himself/clap hands/wave bye bye/flip around for a while and sleep.
It will take a longer time for the first few attempts - he cried the hardest for the first 15-20mins but gradually it became wimping and finally he gave up and slept. So we have to be persistent and a bit hard-hearted...no choice. He took about 2-3 weeks which should be shorter if the sleep training was practised consistently. I started with weekends and bedtime only so he still gets rocked/patted to sleep during the day at my in-laws' place. My in-laws have now started to follow our method and they are surprised that he slept almost immediately when they put him in the playpen. The results are really worth all the frustrations and efforts and we realised he sleeps much better and longer this way as compared to the past.
