for my girls they have a variety in terms of different kind of grains - white / mixed / brown / cous cous / pasta / bee hoon / etc
another base you can try is mashed silken tofu
in that way they have a different base so not so boring in terms of solids.
i avoid giving outside food due to the sugar and salt content. But depends on personal preference.

5pm is a bit tough cos clash with both kiddos' nap time. It's no big deal for Chelsea to miss her nap but I just insisted she naps since that gives me free time haha but Tommy boy usually gets v. cranky by dinner time if he misses his afternoon nap...usually morning time is best or early afternoon the latest
hard to coordinate group outing due to these naps *haiz*

my dd got fever since last sat afternoon. Until this morning still abit feverish. Decided to bring her to see the PD. Visited PD and was told is normal for bb who took their MMR vaccine to get fever within the two weeks from date of vaccine. Also for chicken pox vaccine, is normal to get fever within the three weeks from date of vaccine. My dd took MMR and chicken pox vaccine together on 19/6. PD checked everything and there is no infection found. He told us the fever should come down today since it is the fourth day today.
btw mummies, my dd is not drinking milk...give 5 oz, drink 2 oz only. Whole day, did not even complete 10oz. How? Any advice? Try to change milk powder but still the same. Basically, she does not want to suck, keep on bitting the teats. I am really at a lost what to do to make her drink milk.

sometimes they may just dont feel like drinking, i call it milk strike and usually happens when they are sick. maybe can give more frequent meals? this happens to lele a few days after her stomach flu, was quite worries like you but after that she is back to normal and eating with a vengence now.

Happygal: For the part on biting teats, might be due to teething? Phoebe did that few weeks back then her molar surfaced.
Clover: Congrats. Now Alex is offc a toddler. I'm still waiting leh, Phoebe still prefer to walk holding something/anything. LOL.
Btw, found her to be super cranky these few days. If you dun hold her hand and walk, she scream. If you dun let her touch things (hp, credit cards etc), she also scream. Now her voice a bit sexy (coarse) from screaming.

Hi Reena, Kais, Aly,Kell...
Thanks for sharing... well i didnt introduce rice & table food as yet cos ryan tends to choke easily on grains if is not porridge... u know why? coz he doesnt like to chew his food but swallow all times...HOW ? I am wondering cud that points down to the fact that he has only 8tooths at 15mths now... Is that considered slow or normal ? as it had been more than 3mths since his last tooth erupted till now. Btw, how many tooths do yr kids of same have now ?? I am just curious. thanks for all - RAR

Hi Happygal & mummies....
Is sth new to me that Chicken Pox and MMR vaccine can be taken tog at the same time ?? cos my Pd had only last advised to take separately at 13mths onwards and the latter at 15mths to 2yrs period. Btw, hope yr bb is getting fine now... My Ryan is due for both. In anyway, i shd be bringing him for the MMR jab first in 1-2 wks time... is there any knowledge or advices that u gals cud shower me with on that ?

RAR,
For toddlers, they don't have full set of teeth and they chew with their gums, not their molars. There is a window period for them to learn how to chew and that is between 9 and 12 months. Which is the reason why most books/sites recommends you give coarser food during this period.

rar, alexander was born on 27 mar. He started walking on 15m2d. =) He's the cautious type alright. Each kid has his own internal milestone, so for the mums with kid who hasn't walk worry not. He has 11 teeth now. I brush his teeth with soft cloth or finger toothbrush.
Save your stuff for no. 2!? Lolz

Good Morning!
Yeah, jeans diapers is really weird. They still gotta wear pants/shorts/skirts over diapers, so its a poor selling point. Anyways, huggies pants give Phoebe a damp bum, so its out.
I finally caught Transformers. Soo happy.
I'll KIV 3 Aug.
Mummies enjoy the outing tml!

rar, i'm bored too. Alex is stimulated enough but not the mummy. Hur hur.
I like the milk taste. It's whole milk and richer than meiji fresh milk. Alex took abt 60, 70ml during his breakfast whereas he has never took to fresh milk or fm so i think this is good for a first try.

i do agree to give coarser food to encourage chewing. i only started to intro rice to my son when he is 2 and at initial stage, took a long time to finish as he is quite lazy to chew. so now i already intro rice to lele so that she can exercise her jaw haha
clover
hmm $18 for 2litre really very expensive and i think short expiry period right as it is fresh milk. zac is on meiji milk and i give it to him chilled, immediately out of the fridge. i heard it is better to let it cool down a bit before letting the child drink but in the morning i simply have no time to do that. so far so good, no complains from zac too. try to get lele to drink meiji but she took one sip and keep shaking her head hard. i think she still prefers her gain iq.

AdeL,
There is a nice place to bring our toddlers. It is called Royce playgym. It is at Liang Court, lvl 2. it is very safe for toddlers.
many toys for 0 to 3 years old. there are slides, swings, ball pools, see saws, play kitchen, trolley, mini scooters.
parents can sit around and chit chat while the babies roam around safely in the enclosed area.
all babies and adults must wear socks. they will ask u to use the disinfectant before going in and when you leave.
They also wipe the toys with disinfectant every hourly. They have a few air purifiers around each corner.
however, the registration fee of $50 is the thing that make parents hesistate. can check out the place first before signup.
I signed up on the spot cos i liked the place at first sight and will bring my gal there often.
Aside from the $50 registration fee, u need to pay $10 per hour. nt sure if it is considered exp.

aly, i went to fidget n go go bambini which doesn't require any registration fee n the entrance fee is cheaper. Oh i registered n paid for explorerkidz at downtown east, but that place is more suitable for older kids.

Good Morning all!
I passed by Liang Court and saw the playgym. Look like older kiddos playgym to me cos I don't see those not steady ones walking around.
I prefer to let them play in gardens/park. LOL. I feel its more "natural" even though there's dirt.
