the problem is parenting BACK THEN is different from NOW. the ILs and parents hv to first accept this. it is true - many more allergies and bugs around now. that's why we are so careful with diet & introduction of food. back then everything also can eat. then they need to hv someone whom they believe to tell them this. otherwise they will tell u -- "last time all the children also like this give water/honey/sweets one! all no problem" ... LOL
i had same problem over water issue. but my PD say can give a little so we r happy with compromise - boy drinks abt 1 oz a day only anyway - quite a safe qty (MIL win). PD say cannot give honey cannot give glucose so MIL guai guai don't give (yay, I win!) . PD suggest give apple juice - which suits MIL and me cos healthy (my concern) & can help with bowels (MIL concern). i win some and lose some.
sometimes i take the health studies with a pinch of salt. it is based on children in UK/US- the climate here is v different, it is scorching in Sg on some days!

haiz also have similar problems with my mil. say that only she know how to carry baby. all of us carry him wrongly. then she carry and put him sit on her knees adn only one hand support baby under his right armpit. bb almost fall twice. then say bb must learn like that then they can sit on their own very fast. haiz
after that my boy don dare to have people carry him with only one hand. he will grab our clothes when we carry him.
hubby see his mum like that, never say a word. *faints* but at least he say that his mum dangerous so from now will only bring bb to see his mum after bb can crawl on his own. hahha think will only see mil during their birthdays in october.
but at least my dad listens to his friend who is a dr. says that bb now still young so cant feed any thing yet, only can drink bm.

Sputnik - agree, must factor in causing of electricity, water and time spent on pumping
Maro - hi5. My MIL too. I think she is sore over the fact that I stayed at my mum's place for confinement, keep telling me that my bb cried during bathing, bcos during the 1st month, my mum didn't do this and that..... Argh!!!! And keep saying my bb is naughty, and her daugther's children are guai..... When her daughter's children cried, go and carry, hug and calm them. When my bb cried, it is only ME who go and carry, hug and calm him, CAUSE it it MY BB!!!!

Mummies, here is my two cents worth:
Re water:
So far I produce enough milk that I never gave water to Maddy. However, my PD the other day (from Baby n Kids) told us to start give her water every once in a while so that she'll get used to it and won't refuse. But we still haven't given her water cos kept forgetting until I read this thread hee....
MIL/Mom:
The first thing that I thought was, it was never their duty to take care of our baby. Thus if they do help we should be grateful. I guess I am among the lucky one who has very good MIL (so far) who agree with my philosophy on babies as well as FIL who will do extra babysitting at weekends when they think we are too stressed out and need to go for a date. Yes, I disagree with some of her opinion, but as compared to what she has done for us, the disagreement seems very minor..
My mom, who is not in Singapore come over every 2 months and stay for 1 mo to take turn with my MIL. Of course I am more comfortable with my own mom. But I am just grateful that I have 2 mothers who cares so much.
I think (for those of us who have daughters) we might also be like our MIL/MOM when it is time for us to be grandmothers
. I sympathize with all of you who have a hard time with MIL, and I hope that it will all be settled. Don't worry no matter what our baby will react best to the mommies, and after all, we are the one who has all the rights in raising our child
Man... that was a long post

Thanks mummies for the encouragement. My boy still refusing bottle. From tomolo, I'm gg to ask my mum to try to feed him while i hide, since she is gg to take care of him when i go back to work. Last night hubby n FIL tried, but also cannot. And guess what my FIL say? He say aiyo, then must give him some 'holy water' to drink/ bathe ah, maybe got scared or wat. I almost faint! I dun like it when they always suggest all these weird methods. I'm glad my MIL not taking care of my boy, though we stay together, cos she always have a lot of weird theory one. During confinement, she tell me i must sit down to drink, if not next time will have urine incontinence. Then cannot squat cos the womb will drop out. Then on one occasion when my boy's poo was a bit greenish, tell me that my boy got a bad scare n must feed him some chinese medicine. Ever since confinement i very scared my MIL touch my boy. She'll play with my boy when my boy is obviously sleepy. Then she'll tell him to sleep this moment, and play with him the next. Then when he cry loudly, she'll complain to me why he so bad temper, then give back to me. Then at night she'll play with my boy, then tell him, now play with ah ma, later mummy make u sleep, k? Duh! Then now my boy learning to grasp things, she'll scold him stupid when he cant grasp!

raynsky, must hide wor, if not baby very smart will know one..
for the 2 days that my hubby managed to feed my girl evening time (she usually will refuse, only let him feed her once at 5am), he held her and play with her for about half an hour then attempt feeding, and i hide and not talk to baby for let her see me for that period of time. then no rejection. hiaz but she buay-zun one though. sometimes like tat also cannot.

lol... alot of "complaints" today .. same same .. hugs to all mummies facing those problems with their mil and mothers.. Me too.. Generation difference I would say. Maybe I'm luckier to be able to look after baby myself. I can only trust my elder sis to help me babysit. Definately for sure I will not ask my mil or mum to help me. Seriously cannot stand their way of handling BB no doubt that she brought me up using her way.
Little_princess & goodbb: nice meeting you babes !!
CHewy: Rest well ya !! We had a long day !! Hhahahaha... Meet up with you again !!

RE: MIL/MUM woes
Tsk tsk HB & I really think for our next BB, we would send them to the prenatal courses & talks!!! Babes think all the women in that generation have certain views on how to take care if bbs. They simply love to jump to conclusions too. hahaha sharing my latest "experince"
Eg 1: my MIL said my son's diarrhea is perhaps due to my medication during my op. Duh! I took 2 days only at the hospital & I threw the milk away since & 2 days later... anyway tt happened on 2nd July & my son juz got the diarrhea 2 wks ago. Hence, I shld feed formula milk.
Moral of story: To her-BM bad, FM gd. She forever has sthg to say abt BM.....tsk tsk tsk
Eg 2: My son has this green vein across the nose bridge since birth... MIL saw last wk said neighbour told her it's there coz the bb was frightened /shocked by sthg.
Moral of story: Any green to them is = shock!!!
Ed 3: Son has diarrhea for 10 days, & been poo-ing green stools. Really broccoli green. MIL said coz he went to my HB's boss hsewarming party the previous nite. Not all places r "suitable" for babies hence he must hv kena shocked there.
P.S The day my son had diarrhea was at my ILs plc which they failed to inform us immediately only until when we picked him up after half a day. So theoretically the last ' unsuitable' plc was theirs.....
morale of story: dun brg bb out to anywhere except ILs plc.
Sighz not EZ to be tactful when even our BM is boiling inside. Closing one eye too long is tiring & in fact straining my opened one too. At times, need to throw Ace Card & let the MAN do their thg. if Hb still can't improve thgs, I am prepared to print notes or borrow bks to RE-educate them

Eg 1: my MIL said my son's diarrhea is perhaps due to my medication during my op. Duh! I took 2 days only at the hospital & I threw the milk away since & 2 days later... anyway tt happened on 2nd July & my son juz got the diarrhea 2 wks ago. Hence, I shld feed formula milk.
Moral of story: To her-BM bad, FM gd. She forever has sthg to say abt BM.....tsk tsk tsk
Eg 2: My son has this green vein across the nose bridge since birth... MIL saw last wk said neighbour told her it's there coz the bb was frightened /shocked by sthg.
Moral of story: Any green to them is = shock!!!
Ed 3: Son has diarrhea for 10 days, & been poo-ing green stools. Really broccoli green. MIL said coz he went to my HB's boss hsewarming party the previous nite. Not all places r "suitable" for babies hence he must hv kena shocked there.
P.S The day my son had diarrhea was at my ILs plc which they failed to inform us immediately only until when we picked him up after half a day. So theoretically the last ' unsuitable' plc was theirs.....
morale of story: dun brg bb out to anywhere except ILs plc.

haha lynn, coffee brown looks classy & i do agree turkish blue is gorgeous! Hmmm... I often choose bright colours for prams as it's easier to c in the crowd fr far so my vote is turkish blue!! Nvm abt blue being boyish, I also hv red for my boy! Ur babe can be a Cool babe wat! hahaha
chewy, your "Any green to them is = shock!!!" is very cute leh..
my hubby won't tell his mum she's wrong leh, like machiam very afraid to hurt her delicate feelings! dun even get me started on how pissed i am over this.. think can write a 5000 word thesis on this alone..
hmm another vote for turkish blue..

Lynn - the coffee brown looks nice at one glance, after tat tik bit boring cos i scared brown becomes dull. The blue one at one look seems ERRRRRR, bt after i enlarge the photo seem nice and the color can last....I tik its ok lah for girls to have blue color but not for boys to have pink, tats my view to go for <font color="0000ff">Blue</font>.
