Thankful n Garfield9,
It's probably just a phase that baby is going through. I call it a nursing strike. My baby went through one of those last month.
I suspect it was probably due to a few factors:
1) My milk supply was lower cos of menses
2) Upgraded her bottle teat size. (I use the bottle when I'm not around to bf) She probably finds it easier to drink from the bottle.
So I downgraded the bottle teat back to size 1.
In the day boh bian, feed bottle, let her realise that the flow is slower and breast is better. Then try to latch her on at night when she's seh-seh.
Well, my supply is back to normal for now and baby is latching on 'normally'. Keeping my fingers crossed that this doesnt repeat itself next month..
Though the aftermath of her nursing strike left her ONLY nursing from the right and impatient to wait for a let-down. She'll struggle, tug at my breast and swing her arms to hit me until let-down is achieved. Grrr...

i think weight gain will start to slow down, esp when they start to get active. from what i've asked around, most 1 year olds are abt 10+kg? so guess they won't be growing as much as the first few months.

my boy drinks abt same as yours, every 3 hrs also, and at the most ever ever is 150mls, but that's like once in a few days. usually abt 110 also. but he seems happy and it's sometimes a hassle to get him to even take 110, so i can't really be bothered, haha..

hi jac,
i've been using the CB aloe vera cream and it worked for my baby. i actually have a new tub of CB calendula cream which i purchased from the BP previously at a lower price than from the shop. If you're interested I can sell it to you as I realised I can't even finish the aloe vera one i'm using(her skin cleared up after i used it a few times and i stopped using since). if you're still keen on buying from the shop i can try to find out the store that sells it for you. its hidden in one of my many many bookmarked favourites! haha
anyway, i've been told by many people that aczema should go away on its own. just have to clean milk and saliva away with water so the skin doesnt get worse. the cream is just to speed up the process but isn't really neccessary. good luck!

Sweetpea/bx, RaeAnne also doesn't drink much, if bottle usually 110-125ml (until now, I'm still using Avent small bottle). If I latch her she also drinks only 1 side, esp if early morning. Sometimes I also can't tahan to wait and feed her the other side cos so sleepy and losing my grip on her. And she's older than most babies here cos she was born in end Jan. During the 2nd 6-in-1 jab, she was 6.3kg. 
Babyhope, the brand is called Konfidence. They also sell at departmental stores, I bought the pink adjustable one for my gal from Isetan Private sale.
Tubao, oh i see. Will try it out. She can't quite sit yet, maybe next month.

Jac:- Not Berry but I have tired the CB calendula cream on my baby rough face and it has become smooth and my sister-in-law used it on her daughter who has eczema and it works for her as well. Its much cheaper to get it from the website or the BP. But if u really want to buy directly from a shop, some organic shop carry it. The organic shop at The Arcade ground floor sell this cream and it cost about $25 (BP only $15). I have seen some shops (those shops selling toiletries) at Chinatown selling this cream too.

re bf
I agree tat it is not easy to keep up with TBF and certainly missing out moments with babies and sometimes results in frustration..... thus, not an entirely bad thing to give it up.... now i am pumping at 10am and 4pm, latch at 8pm, then pump at 9pm (sleep) then latch in middle of night, then pump at 445am.... cycle starts again...
but my boss has been hinting me to bring my note book back to work.... but at this moment i did not cos the pump is heavy and the milk is heavy.... thus, i am not sure how long more i can keep up with.
yesterday night was really storming man.

good morning mummies,
it seems like all your weekends are meaningfully spent.
on the contrary, my weekends are just waiting waiting and waiting.
my bb is taken care by my MIL now. so, I am overdosed with my PIL - weekdays (evening 7:30pm to 9:00pm) and weekends (fri night, sat, sun). I can't go back to my parent's place often as they are in malaysia.
If I add up the time that my hb spend on MJ weekly, it will be about 12 hours. Sometimes it's not because he wants to play, it's because his father doesn't want to play then ask him to join.
cannot say I am 'wu li qu nao' to quarrel with him right? I expected more quality time spend together...
I think from now onwards, I don't want to stay over at their place. see if I can insist.

xiaoyun,
i think you have been very patient. like stephie, i would have given black face loooooooong time ago already!
perhaps you can line up some specific activities for weekends and inform hubby way before the weekend? then tell hubby to inform PILs that this weekend your family will not be going to their place because you are going to xxxxx
at this age, parks are a great idea (i love botanic gardens and macritchie early in the morning). or does hubby have any favourite activity other than MJ that you can do together as a family?
sometimes, spending time together at your own place with baby can be very fulfilling. dun need to go anywhere also.

hi all,
just read from mar'08 that this thread have been exist for almost one year...guess many of us have just found our pregnancy around this timing of last year.
I still remember how my GP first told me " ya i saw 2 lines, so congrads to you" Although me and my hubby were quite active that time but it still come as shocker to me...din realise it can come so fast to me...but now my precious is already 4mths plus. There is a great sense of achievement to see her grow and mature.
However, me feel sad at time when she prefer my MIL than me..feel like a lousy mother to her...

xiaoyun,
some men ah....black face they will ignore. try being more assertive. my hb also like that sometimes - he will say if something really bothers me so much then i should tell him upfront and not just sulk
i'm also very afraid of heat. try going early in the morning. i dun recall botanic gardens having any mosquitoes but you can always spray insect repellant before going. the greenery is good for the soul

Erm, any recommendation for eczema-prone skin?
My boy has dry patches all over his body, now I'm using J&J Baby Lotion but doesn't seem to get better...
And recently the area around his genitals are very red and sore... have switched him back to cloth nappies in the day but doesn't seem to help much too.
Anyone has any idea?
