(2008/02) Feb 2008 MTBs

i'm so sorry to mis the gathering...though i did see Qingling and Xiaoyun...heh.

My hb, ruth and I were at vivo, but ruth was still coughing so i thought it may be abit inconsiderate for us to bring her there to play and spread to other babies.

i did go up to get the calendula cream from xiaoyun...

really wanna meet up with some of u. hopefully ruth better soon and can make it for playdates.
 


hello all, tks Cheryl for organising the gathering.

hope bb vernon & ruth gets better ya.

re:gathering

esp the gals... thy made me so jealous of the socks n the cute cute dresses they wore.

stephie
my gal din come along cos she went shopping with my mum... sori din go over as i am in the super engorge mood(din express before coming)

re:kate's hair band
yes!!! veri cute.... my hb was amazed with the carrier that yr hb is wearing

re:arielle
garfield, she really lived to her nick"ah pui"

jass
thanks for all the pic taken
 
cheryl/mrs loh - how come suddenly so bad? didnt sound so bad when we saw you on sat. take care - drink lots water & barley. and thanks so much for organising.

re: silverfish/ikan bilis being too salty - i read in some weaning book that you can soak the silverfish or ikan bilis in milk to take away the excess salt. for me, i don't bother, because i put very little of the powder in the porridge - maybe only 1/4 teaspoon, so i think it's ok. but it sounds like a good idea to use the silver fish and cook stock for porridge.. shall try.

re: porridge, today i tried pumpkin & apple porridge. read it in some website - sounded nice. steam and mash up the pumpkin & apple, then stir in the porridge. my gal kept gagging and wanting to 'vomit' it out. i suspect she don't like sweet stuff. sigh. anymore ideas for porridge pls post. this week i will try sweet corn, broccoli, and maybe peas.
 
happy,
thanks! she must have been drawn to aunty may's happy face and warm smiles! =)

erlene is such a sweet angel. now i know what you mean after meeting her!

dor,
ya lor, i oso dunno why. she's only 7.7kg, probably abt 500g heavier than most of the other baby gals. i think she has "look fat" genes *shake head*

oscar,
hee...i was just thinking of adding apple to porridge too! sorry, no recipe to share. me v lousy, one recipe cook 4 days. so far in one week only two recipes and you have tried both liao =P
 
oscar
could it be the pieces are too big? first time i fed my bb fish porridge also he threw up a bit then after that don't want, but later in the evening he ate up everything, so we figure he just choked the first time. your pumpkin apple porridge, wonder if can be lazy and just dump everything into the porridge to cook instead of steaming first? ;)

if you cook apple, does it turn brown?

silverfish
my MIL made some for me already, she just wash (she say wash can, no need to soak) then she grind. she say not salty, but then the family eat q salty things, hee. so think i just use a little bit for some flavour.
 
kitsune,
today my gal fussy le. didn't check forum until now.
sorry...

fed her papaya and apple today. she loves papaya.
planning to give her banana tomorrow.
hehe... all because she cried until tears come out when pooing on Fri night and Sat morning.
now the kan cheong mummy fed her all kinds of fruits.
also, replaced part of her rice cereal to barley too.
hope things goes well...
happy.gif
 
happy,
ya. in fact, she doesn't have much chance to play with the bbs around.
sleepy head lah.
she played with Ashlynn and Kate Lynn i think.
happy.gif
 
Amy,
Can i knw how does lao beijing does the silver fish dish...i've never tried it there b4. Btw,
i cooked porridge with fresh silver fish, carrot and peas today. Tastes pretty ok but personally i like the threadfin porridge better. Nonetheless, my son gulp up all the porridge...so i am v happy of course, effort not wasted
happy.gif
but now worried that he's not drinking enuf milk cos' ever since i've intro solids, he much prefers solids. eg for breakfast, i will attempt to give him 120ml of FM but he takes only 40ml and strongly rejects the balance. And in a few mins when i offer him cereal, he happily eats it all up. I really wonder whether i shd b happy or sad over his interest in solids. or is he manipulating mummy!!!!! Hmmmmmm.....

Oscar,
I've tried cooked apple but put into rice cereal. Tastes ok...at least to me n my son seems pretty alright with it. I wonder if i shd try the pumpkin and apple porridge too...thinking of trying celery, potato and pumpkin 2morrow for his lunch.

Iso,
I've tried steaming apples and pureeing it. I find it doesn't turn brown as easily as uncooked apples leh...
 
leila
ah ok.. when i try and scrape/mash the raw apple, it starts to brown when i haven't even finished mashing! so annoyed ;) u steam it whole or cut?
 
iso,
i cut into big chunks then steam...

xiao yun,
if u dun mind, if the discovery ball comes back into stk, cld u let me knw? M still keen
 
bkkgal, i also wan to know where to get cheap hair accessories for my gal
happy.gif
. i go quite often for work. but now political chaos, so dun dare to go.
 
Good morning mommies!
Hope you had a great weekend! Am on leave today and tomorrow..hehe...gonna go and run my errands..

Xiaoyun, your bb very guai lah...we all envious! she can sleep anywhere! Mine can only really sleep in dark room, cot, A/C...sigh...very jialat when have to go travelling.

Hair accessories
Qingling, you know Siam Square? In SS, there's a shop, which is stuffed two floors FULL of hair clips, bands, brush, ribbons, earrings, rubber bands, etc etc, you will see alot of school girls walking in and out. Hairbands between 15-20 baht, scrunchies 25baht. Aiyah, can go mad one lah. The shop is near the STarbucks (which is in its own building, not to be confused with the Kasikorn bank Starbucks). Lemme see if can find namecard.

But you really have time in BKK, should go to Pahurat...It's accessories WHOLESALE haven there. Very "luan" but if patient and have time to look, can find good stuff.
 
bkkgal,
i was joking with dor that my gal sleep anywhere because she's in daddy's arms -- too bored. :p
you on leave today and tomorrow ah? clearing leave?

leila,
ok. i signed up for the notification @ babycenter.
whenever the stock arrives, i will be notified.
happy.gif


re: babycenter spree
anyone interested?
hope can order today.
 
Kitsune,
My boy more chinese. Eat rice or porridge. Sat he only eat pizza. Pizza abit hard also. Almost lots of dishes are $15+. Only afew dishes at $6+

XiaoYun,
If you are ordering the discovery ball, keep me in the loop also.

Stopping BF
A few mummies stop or going to stop BF soon. I try and skip 1day without pumping. The next day I pump out cos of lumps. Instead of reducing, it cames up to 110ml! If I pump once a day, it's only around 50ml. Scratching my head now and wondering like that when I can really stop.
 
Morning ladies..

garfield/snowbelle,
i have emailed the gathering photos to you..
happy.gif


stephie,

re: baby weight
sigh, after carrying some of ur babies, i think erlene is the lightest one..
will be bringing her to take her 3rd jab tml and will update her weight then..
 
happy,
why does Erlene's 3rd jab so late?
7 month?
anyway, petite is good. easy to carry.
happy.gif

we are now scared that carrie will grow to heavy until no more strength to carry.
 
exploration station
i got mine from spree. cost me only $72 around there including shipping charges.

discovery ball was around $35 somewhere there.
 
crystal,
thanks for your assurance.
yup. it should be around this number.
$22.49 x 1.5 = 33.74
shipping $42

total is ~ $76

xiaoyun,
when i was abt to bring erlene for 3rd jab when she was 6 mth, she caught a flu. then my mum told me to wait for another week b4 we bring her for the jab.. so hv to post pone the date till tml..
 
happy,

happy.gif

re: exploration station
