Hi Mummies,
I just brought my baby for her 1st 6-in-1 jab today. Read that you all also took the rotavirus too. As I missed the rotavirus today, can I still let my baby take it at another time?

Sputnik,
I give my BB 120ml EBM + 30ml FM on 3 hrly feeding. Nowadays her intake seems to increase to 180ml cos I change her formula from Enfalac to Frisco. Realise that Enfalac is too heaty and she cannot poo for days. Once I change to Frisco she poo everyday but Frisco is too easily disgested so she gets hungry easily.
Anyone interested to buy Enfalac from me? I still hv 1 tin unopened willing to let go. I hv 2 tins which I just opened but hv to throw liao cos cannot keep for more than 4 weeks.

Jgal: Great I will bring the bottle caps along for our outing.
Lochia and menses: I think i am having menses now already, am in my 7th week. Seems like i am the only one coz the rest is not having as heavy discharge... hope its normal.
bb weight: byron was 3.91 kg at birth, when i brought him for his 1st month check up he is 5.5kg! I suppose it the common growth spurt now for most of our babies. Anyway i noticed that most babies now are very big very fast

Calamari - I eat fish too, guess it doesn't work for me. I heard papaya can help to increase the production. Well, will have to try that I guess.
Okiedocie - how many months is your bb? Mine is turning 2 months next week but he's taking 110ml every 2 hours.

veronica...u must cook papaya(unripe ones) n fish bone soup...that is suppose to help...
calamari...ur supply is really a lot leh...i latch my bb on abt 3x a day n rest is express can onli get ard 500ml onli...din manage to freeze a lot of EBM....must work doubly hard now so that BB will have milk to drink when I go back to work...ha ha ha...

milk supply: this works for me but i dunno if it will for others. I happened to take chives flower (gu cai huay) and found my milk supply seem to increase the next day. My malay massage lady was telling me for malays, they take beansprouts fried with chives to increase their milk supply too.
anyway i went to robinsons expo sale, its not crowded at all so dun worry if u wanna bring ur bb...... but not much offer for baby stuff. Loreal is having expo sale in the same hall too and they have very good deals
Koori: so your bleeding stop? mine is going on for about 4 days already... hope it will go off soon

Veronica,
My BB is 5 weeks old. Ya she drink a lot.. her demand is more than my supply.. tsk tsk ! so no choice I always hv to supplement her with FM.
Koori, I bought the Frisco that is suppose to help in colicky and constipation bb.. not the normal one. You might to try that. That formula contains a lot of fibre in it suppose to help in her bowel. Can find that in Guardian Pharmacy they sell the small tin. I bought that to try out 1st.

calamari,
maybe u can go and buy the bigger teats hole to try... my MIL normally is the one feeding her she told me that when she realise that the BB suck for long time and tries to suck very hard then fall asleep.. so I bought the bigger hole teats and she drinks faster now.. in 15mins she can finish 120ml of EBM.

I'm dead tired. Hardly have time to come online these few days. No more free time. Frm monday, i've been sick, until now. Plus my girl is awake most of the time in the day now! She can stay awake from 8am to 8pm !!! It's killing me! Now i know how most of u mummies feel.
Plus, i was having this teats problem. She had prob with the previous teats. e hole was too small. So my mum cut a little bit. But she's too fussy. Sometimes ok, sometimes not. Then went to buy nuk latex. She hates it! she cries and cries whenever she is drinking frm that! Then last straw, i changed to Dr Brown's Level 2 teats for babies 3 months + ... now so far so good... sweat!
calamari, will u be going for outing? Can i pass u e extra money for e OSS item? seems like something wrong with me IB. dont have e time to call e bank these few days.
So sorry for e delay.
blessed, give me ur a/c too. Thanks.

Re : NTUC bag
Just need to bring along your baby's birth cert. Better to make a copy first as they need to keep a copy, if not they will have to take some time to photocopy it. They did not ask for my or my hubby's NRIC. Whether need to collect within 2 mths, i not very sure. The info above was extracted fr somewhere else. When I went, the person did not ask if baby is less than 2 mths old. But I thik the items are pretty good, esp the tin of milk powder. The bag is not too bad also.

calamari - what kind of soup do you drink to increase supply? is it the normal kind of soup or the herbal soup?
Does eating papaya help? or we have to drink papaya soup to increase supply?

Esther,
I think amazon has better pricing for bb bjorn. I am still contemplating whether to invest in ergo or bjorn. HB says not suitable for our climate. Haiz. If i want to buy, maybe get from amazon, got free shipping domestically in states, but shipping to spore will cost a lot more as i hear it is bulky packaging.

Simp,
Thanks for the advice. Me also choosing between ergo and bjorn.. Already got a sling and stroller but still not satisfied with the portability. Hehe.. but will buy before telling hubi. Thinking of going to motherhood fair 5-8jun to check out ergo, but by then if price is right, probably will just get it coz expo really far from my house and may have the must-buy-something mentality. ;p

Lynn,
The package is only for 6 in 1 means 3 jabs for $440. The rotavirus is $95 per dose and pneumococcal is $180 per dose.
Zishumo,
I using avent milk shells. Erm, dun think can be worn to sleep at night coz lying down position cannot collect the milk...
Ladies,
My baby is too used to my nipples liao. Having tried pigeon, NUK teats, my baby now accepts the new type of pigeon teats. i think its coz the way she sucks using that kind of teats is the same ways as per sucking from the breast.
Sherin,
I top up the difference for shipping during the gathering?

Have emptied out the bag already, but think the following is inside it:
- 400g of Mamil Gold Step 2 (From 6mth onwards)
- Sample of baby laundry detergent
- Diaper Samples, think there were abt 3 diff brands of samples
- Sample of bodywash
- Handwash etc
No need to contact anyone before going down. Just approach the reception counter.

Koori,
My baby same as yours... brought him to doctor last nite too due to vomiting of his feed.. .doctor also said its due to overfeeding and wind.. my doctor prescribed dentinox and we are advised to cut baby's feed to 120 ml (from his current 150ml)... My doctor is concerned cos my BB growing at very fast rate - putting on almost 200g in 3 days! Now very stressed!
