goodbbb, i have e v busy spider flip flap, yes contents the same.

Btw, just want to share a v good book: THE RAINBOW FISH. I got my books (paperback) from kino, dont think there's hardcopy. A very meaningful book. Somewhat my girl loves that book. Perhaps because it's v colourful. Btw, it's v different from the littletouch's rainbow fish.
 
JrRain,
yeah, me too thinking.. my job can require me to work from home and need to be in office for a few days a week. but think definitely will have pay cut. would love to see his development instead of 'heard' from my mil and helper.. hehe.. also gonna ask my boss when an extra headcount in my section come in..

Happy Bellies Brown Rice
Mummies, how to get my ger like HB BR? Think she prefer bland stuff like heinz white rice or HT BR. These few days i wasted quite a bit of HB BR, either i eat or throw. How?
 
simp.. my baby same as yours! she rejects frisocrem too, only likes dumex plain white rice or HT brown rice, very headache..
 
simp

u may like to add in some fruits or veg puree into the cereal? my boy is currently taking frisocrem & nestle brown rice cereal. but i still add in these puree on alternate days for him.
 
Simp and Lynn, Dana loves her Frisocream but she hates the HT brown rice when I started her on Sun. So this morning, I pureed some organic apple and added into the brown rice. Surprisingly, she took to it better. You can try that too.

Mummies, when can our bbs progress from cereal and purees to home-cooked porridge?
 
RE: NESTLE GOODIE BOX
For those who want to change pick-up location, just email them. manage to change mine to HF.

jamie,

Maro
I will trsf the xmas bibs amt to u 2nite cos token is at home. Wow u can work from home, is good. I will definitely go for that if I can, hehehe.........
happy.gif
 
maro
yes, i add fruits/ veg puree to frisocrem. my boy finish whatever i gave him. my boy has been taking frisocrem since 4mths till now, no diarrhea.
u cant add boiling water 1st coz the mixture will become very lumpy. usually i will add some room temp water followed by warm water.
 
Cherish&Charis,
HB brown rice contains probiotics which aids digestion, HT brown rice doesn't.
Taste wise, I believe they should be the same.

Porridge:
I don't believe in there being any set age to start baby on foods.
Ethan has taken to solids very well so I'll start porridge perhaps next month or the month after, and I still plan to keep cereal part of his diet. I don't see a need to introduce it just yet as his diet is already quite diverse.. we experiment with many flavors
happy.gif


Some babies at 6 months are already on porridge, so it all depends on the parent's willingness to introduce it and the baby's acceptance of it. Add ground ikan bilis or boil with pork for extra flavor
happy.gif

If I remember right, Jamie is already giving Bryan porridge?
 
HT vs HB
i tasted both as well. in fact i tasted most things b4 i give bb or to find out y. HT taste blander compared to stronger taste in HB. Maybe it' e probiotic. in fact i mix nestle stage 2 nan ha w probiotic into HB BR n bb dosent like or not used to it. think i hv to try n error.

i feel more stressed feeding solids than bm.

plain Porridge my mum started bb 1 sat despite it's lumpy but bb can take it then. that was when bb was still 5.5m :p i think ok bah
 
Calamari - i already given my order to Stefy last nite...tis time round u slower lei hhaha. Quick quick before it get OOS.
 
jgal - thanks. Don't mind having another round of gathering. Let me know when all the stuff are in..CB cream (candula, lotion bubble bath,etc) n HB cereal
happy.gif


angel - shld be able to try porridge by now, puree the porridge...v yummy
happy.gif

for me, still hesitant to start porridge bcos going for a trip in nov...afraid she may want only porridge. so will only start porridge after the trip. Then again, i hope i can wait that long ! Like most of you, i m having trouble getting val to eat her cereal. Initially she was ok but now it's a battle! sigh!
 
maro
frisocrem is instant so no need to boil

porridge
diva: yeah, i hv started bryan on it last couple of weeks ago. currently i'm giving him abt 3x a week once daily, as i'm still giving him cereal. will probably do away with the cereal next mth, but will still stick to 1 meal daily as i feel their main source of food is still milk. so far he's taking it well.

Cheesycake - my mom also give 3tblspn of frisocrem with 100ml....2-3 hrs later she will feed milk again, tik its ok.
 
Hi Jgal, can I place order too? thanks!!

By JGAL

Gals ... i going to stock up major on the happybellies and I suggest you do the same. Cos' I just read Lynn's latest email on the HealthyTimes. Seem like wealthy parents in china are getting large shipments of organic food due to the milk scare, so I forsee a shortage soon.. and price increase. Let me know if you want other organic food from amazon. I ship in for you too.
Note : Expiry date of the cereal is Apr 2009

Maddy's mum & princess J: our items at BDL already. But might delay as I will try to help Juniorrain order again. Cos hers is rejected... weird..

Cos' you gals are not regular.. So I dun know how to look for you. Please inform them if you know them.
 
Apple/Fruit Puree
I just steamed and pureed them. Then i fed a little to shevon and she gave me the sourish look/reaction during the tea break. I tasted too n found a bot sourish. Mummies, is that the taste or it's just the apples that arent sweet enugh? Wat can i add to counteract e sourish taste of apple of other fruits to freeze them? Papaya? Banana? Prune?

Veg Puree/stock
M thinking of doing that but realised mainly the root veg like carrot, pumpkin etc. How often can we feed them these as i read that too much of these r not advisable for bb.

M thinking of adding potato, sweet potato and sweet corn for the stock

cubes
Realised i only bgt the 2 oz cubes and some storage boxes from motehrcare. Dun seem to be enugh. Any mummies doing a spree on cubes?
 
Simp
Banana - pang jio - don't need to steam. just mash and eat fresh, is very sweet. same with ripe papaya (but of course u will encounter a few dud papayas that are not so sweet)
Prune by nature is sour. my boy reject prune juice. i was planning to try steamed plum for experiment.
Apple, Fuji is sweet. peel, cut, quickly steam before it turns brown. flesh should still be pale yellow in color. once soft enough, puree.


Vege puree
carrot, once or twice a week in small amount is ok. i read that the water after boiling should be discarded cos the nitrates leak into them. read http://www.wholesomebabyfood.com/ search for "carrots", "nitrates"
 
hi Jgal,
Im coogee.
Actually is your redhill neighbour.
Just let me know when is a good time to pick up the items
Thanks sabrina
 
Simp, i think apples once pureed are sour. Not sure why also. Juices also.
Mangoes will also be slightly sour. Perhaps it's just those i bought. Hee. But quite a few times already.
The other non-sour fruits will be avocado (summer's fav), peach , papaya n bananas.
Btw, bananas cannot be frozen, has to be eaten immediately.
While freezing the fruits do preserve it for at least a week, some nutrients are lost too. So i try not to freeze it. If you do not want to freeze it, they can stay in e fridge for 2 days, just like BM.
To counter the sourness, i mix them into the cereal. So it gives the plain cereal a boost in taste, making it more yummy for her and yet she gets e nutrients. Coz if i were to give it like that she will reject, too sour, i think.
I gave sweet potatoes, pumpkins, carrots, and potatoes. According to my mom cant give sweet potatoes too often. Others i think it's ok. She has sweet potatoes once a week. I also give broccoli onto of these root veg. But e smell is super strong i mix carrots with broccoli, she enjoys it alot.
Btw, any mommies tried porridge? we need to blend e porridge after it's cooked? Can we use brown rice to cook e porridge? Anyone started on fishes? Cook with porridge then blend altogether?

Simp, i got some storage cubes from howards storage. Much bigger than 2oz, cant remb e exact size but i find it more suitable for Summer's intake.
 
Yeah.. simp.. my mum also say.. eat too much pumpkim and carrot.. bb will turn yellow.. ha haha ;P

Aiya : sabbie .. just come to my place after 7.30 today.. I will be at home.

BTW, my gal call / try to call "ma ma" already.. ha haha .. She did that 2 days back.. and this morning.. ha haha .. want me to carry her..*So Happy*
