hello mummies, been so busy at work recently. Too many things going on. Then busy with playing with my baby too.
Re: Flipping
That time always hear mummies said their babies could flip then wondering why my boy doesn't want to flip. But he actually learnt fast. His daddy taught him to flip last Sat and he kept flipping on his own after that. LOL..
It's so amazing how babies develop. Now when we put him on his pram. He will sit up(Head no support) and play his toys.
peace, don't worry about your boy's development. Every baby got their own schedule. Don't stress yourself or the baby. Hubby's friend's baby daughter who is 9 mths old, don't have any teeth, doesn't crawl or walk. But it's actually quite normal.
Felval, I thgt your baby is quite big leh. But guess cos my boy is taller so look like smaller. My boy gained alot of weight cos at 2 months only 5.7kg now at 4 months during his vaccination was 7.2kg and 65.2cm. I have to say my boy's head is really big, measuring 42.5cm. My nephew when 6 months old last time only 41.5cm. Then I always sing, "da tou da tou, xia yu bu chou, ren you yu san, wo you da tou" to him. LOL.. My boy went for pneumoccocal also, paid around $180 I think. You got circumcize your boy ar?
Re: Feeding
My boy's feeding interval changed again. Now he only wants to drink every 4-5 hours, any mothers experiencing the same? Wonder if it's alright. We're giving him about 180ml every feed and for first feed mid of the night is about 200ml. And same, he's showing less interest in milk also. So when he doesn't want to drink, we never force him. Went united sq today and bought organic rice cereal for him but don't know when I should start also. Hmm...

Re: circumcize
Is it a must to do this? But I know it's better for boys to do it when they are still a baby cos it's easier to do and faster to heal. But am not sure if every boy has to do it. Any idea?
meira, when babies reject bottles, no choice one. It's a passing phase lo. Just need to keep trying on them eventually they will take. But try to get someone else to feed him instead of yourself and also don't be near him when someone is feeding him. Cos when babies smell you, they will want to latch on. Just try and try until he takes from bottle. Or perhaps can try different teats too. I'm not sure if that will help as I didn't have that problem. I bottle feed my boy since few weeks old, latch him twice at night only. Then now, he doesn't want to latch on anymore, he only wants bottle. *sad*
Re: Baby's skin
My boy's skin is dry again last week. Then apply hydrocortisone and cream again. Now alot better but around his mouth area always rashes. Haiz. Now after every feed, clean with damp cotton wool. Don't know why always on and off one. Then still have cradle cap after so long. Sigh.. I even go to the extent of using my breastmilk to bathe him twice a day. Now it's better but afraid that it will come back again. Sigh.. My friend recommended us to bring him to see skin doctor if comes back again.
alice, when you going India? Prepare all the stuff liao mah? Must be very challenging for you. I think I will be at lost if I have to go India.
Re: Tomorrow's gathering
Seems great to have a gathering again. Not sure if I can make it since hubby won't be very keen also. But then I'll see how. If can make it, I'll probably make some pancakes.
Kelcqi, don't worry about your girl sleeping on tummy. As long as she can support her head, and when she knows how to struggle and flip her head when she cannot breathe, it's alright liao. I read an article and it seems like SIDS happens to babies who don't know that they are in danger when they are are suffocating themselves(taking in more carbon dioxide than oxygen). When my boy only 1 month+, I let him sleep on his tummy on our bed and initially I also scare la. But after a while, realise he's alright with it then not worried already. Think you just monitor for a while and if it's alright, don't have to worry about it so much liao. As for cereal, try to start on white rice cereal first cos it can be digested much easier than oats/brown rice. And also the taste is more easily accepted by babies.
