Re: Baby Crying
My boy also cry, and there were times when I carried him from 3pm to 6pm. The moment I want to put him down, he cry. So I used sarong (yao lan) and since then, I am free to do my chores
I know there are pros and cons of using sarong, but it works for my boy and that's all it matters.
RE : Amount of feed to BB
All BB are different, as long as BB do not merlion the milk out after feed, it is all right to feed them the amount they want. My friend's bb took 180ml before 1st month. Guess every bb growth spur is different.

whihc PD u go for 6 in 1?kids link?
My baby now sleeps on my bed with me and hubby, find it more convenient coz can latch her on at night without getting up. She sleeps better also with me beside her. In the day she usually will fall asleep on me then i put her down. she likes to be carried upright with her head on my shoulder then she will nudge herself downwards and crouch on my tummy with her head on my breast then she fall asleep... There were many times when i carried her like that both of us fell asleep on the sofa ;P
Tsukushi,

Have you tasted your own milk before?
As my baby was fussing over the bottle one day, I decided to picked up my courage and sipped a bit. Both refidgerated and freezed. The former still taste ok but the latter is really yucky lor, made me wanna vomit, rancid taste leh.. only put for 2 weeks nia...
So i think probably may just feed my bb with refridgerated ones and if no choice then freezed ones..

cheesycake, u not alone. I also accidentally cut bb's finger, husband even used camera to take down as evidence(but guess he just wanna tease me la). Really heart pain hor... I think is quite common using baby nail clipper. Even experience baby nanny like my mil also made the mistake before. Ever since I use baby scissors le, easier to cut and no accident so far. Dont't worry, it will heal nicely in a few days time.

i also accidently cut my gal's finger, can see a piece of skin being strip off, so heart pain & got scolded by my husband. my SIL advise me to use scissors & really is much easier.
whenever my gal cry, i'll try to carry her & she likes the upright position. if that doesn't works, i'll put her in the yao lan. But am trying not to let her sleep in the yaolan all the time during the day (at night, she'll sleep in her cot). but when i put her on the mattress, she'll not sleep, eyes open big big & after awhile she'll cry. how can i not let her sleep in the yaolan? my gal nanny said try not to let her sleep in the yaolan if not when we bring her out, she'll wants to "yao yao"... how?
as for cleaning, i try to reach as far in as possible when she cry out loud & do a quick one...though is really heart pain to see her cry out loud, but after a few times, got used to it. & now she knows that i'm cleaning her tongue, she'll sort of suck my finger, so that i won't be able to clean, so cute..

Re: Cutting of finger nails
mummies, maybe you would like to cut them while they are sleepingor latching them on? I often cut when baby is latching on so there is minimal movement.
Cloudeme: Motherhood fair is at Expo. But I wanna know what time it is open so that can avoid the crowd.
I have read up that some babies did not poo for 10 days and it is alright so long as baby does not contispate and the stools passed out are not hard ones. Probably baby has digested the milk? My boy always love to poo during feed, even if nothing likes to force out. Which I believed to cause a bit of bleeding that time. Every time he did that, I will tell him not to poo out.. lol

cheesycake, I cut my bb thumb too. Heartache but no choice. I braced myself and cut his fingernail again after an hour and this time, no injury
Esther, is the milk freeze together with fish and meat? Heard from friend that the frozen milk will absorb the smell from the fish esp, then it will be a bit stinko.

mummies, any tips to make bb sleep on tummy?
it's supposed to let them sleep better and help with tummy wind, but my girl hates being on her tummy
any idea how to make her like the prone position better? i read that most babies would like to be in this position but not my girl or am i doing something wrong? need any pillows or anything to make her more comfortable?

Hi all,
I am new to this forum.
Would like to share that my bb (just 2 mth old)sleeps better and longer when he is tummy down. when he is not asleep and i put him on his tummy, he will do the "push up" and will not sleep. wat i do is to cuddle him to sleep first then put him on his tummy to sleep n tap tap him on his back.
as for the swaddle me thingy, i use it to wrap bb after he has fallen to sleep and he will usually sleep for a longer time.

Esther,
I tasted my milk and fm before, fresh, refrigerated and frozen ones. The best is still bm, i think taste best esp if u take sweet things like cakes etc, bm will also be sweet. If put in fridge and temperature is not cold enough, it will taste fishy. So i usually put straight into freezer with a ziploc bag and the it taste like the fresh ones as it is very cold in freezer. Well there are fresh poultry in the freezer so ziploc bag is an added filter for me to put my milk bottle in in before storing. However i usually store less than 3 weeks.
Cherish,
I also cleaned a few times of my girl's tongue and that was this time that i was so pissed with my mum that i traumatized my girl by cleaing so far into that she cried for a while. Usually i just used hanky to talk to her and she thinks i am playing w her and she is ok. I think whenever i want to test if she is hungry, i usually use her hanky and test her lips instead of using my hands. Tired of having to keep washing my hands before touching her lips. So i think she thinks it is feeding or playing time.
Jgal,
I have not tried cutting my girl's nails yet. Usually my mum does it with the little fingernail clip i bought for her from kiddy place. It is really good as the cutter is so short and round which i think it is easier compared to clipper that looks like a normal scissor to me.
Sherin,
Dun think i will join the outing at botanic gardens food court. Think i cannt manage on my own to take bb there and nursing as comfortably as i would like. Yesterday i went for another outing in someone's home and i already couldnt managed w/o the help of my mum. carry bb, bag and food, very xiong.
If u girls are going for another outing in someone's home, do let me know before i go to KL in late june or early july.

Xiang,
OK can post to me. Let me have ur details and i transfer the amt to ur account.
Am thinking of getting a carrier seriously as i realised my bb doesnt really like to be in the pouch. Cant be in more than 10mins. And if have to carry bag, her and other things, i realli dun know how to manage. Currently havnt buy any stroller in spore yet, in kl, we have 1 as gift from friends. Haiz i am thinking of getting stroller end of the year and get carrier instead. Still deciding.

Hi Sputnik,
I used medela bfree bottle or pigeon bottle that comes w the PIS pump and pigeon steriliser to store as i heard that glass bottle may crack. BTW, i only ahve 2 glass bottle as feeding purpose nia. I am thinking of using sterilised milk bags to store as it is more compact and saves space in a freezer that is already full of things. However i still use glass bottle to feed ebm or fm w my bb. Havnt try milkbags yet, so am getting from xiang. Hear that the review on lansino milkbags are good as got zipper.
