birdy:
wow.. must be quite pricy to go citispa.. i very budget one le haha...
Mummies: wat is cost of ur bb vaccine at 3rdmth? my doc charge me $105 the other dae which i tink is so expensive.. can anyone share which PD charge lower rates for vaccination.. i thought of bringing my boi to other clinic for vaccine.
 


jovial,

i took a package previously and each session cost about $48 - 3 treatments (electric something to breakdown the fats, G5 to further breakdown the fats and sauna).

which PD are you seeing? i'm seeing dr heng at kidslink near chinese garden.

are you staying in jw?
 
hi mummies,

just to share to prevent fever, my aunts recommend giving ricewater 2 days before the jab. just scoop 2-3 tablespoons of ricewater when the rice is cooking (boiling stage),cool it & feed for 2 consecutive days before jab.HTH

Yanling- maybe ur boy needs more time bah.. mine also used to wake up at least 2-3 hrs in the nite but when he turned 3mths, begin to slp thru liao. also tink cos he slept v little in the day, at most 2-3 hrs. but stil he like nt getting the slp he needs for a 3mth bb leh. Shd be slpin abt 15 hrs but he only slept like 12 or less.

Jo- I also dun like express. Haha! Realize my nipple nt the normal shape after prolonged pumpin. See liao v sad. Me too lazy to wake up to pump. So I jus latch him, even if he feeds only 1 side I go bk to slp tog w him instead of wakin up to pump the other side =P

Pooh- wow! U did a gd job in feedin ur boy! Hehe.. my boy shd be abt 8kg too liao. gg for his nxt jab nxt mon. shall c hw much he has grown.

Diamondust- initially I also tot he pooped cos kept farting. Haha… but after tat, realize tats jus his normal routine of farting non-stop. Last time no smell one, nw so stinky!!

Felval- yeah.. reali amazing to see them grow rite? Keke… nw I buy 12 mo clothes for him n keep. Tink he can wear soon liao. haha.. he has a long body so most of the rompers too short n tight for him alrdy. Recently I bot Disney rompers frm one of the BPs at $4 per pc. V cute designs! My wt also stagnant for v long liao. sighz… I also doin sit-ups every nite nw. heard wearin binder helps. I got but nvr wear. Finds it v uncomfy.

Re: watchin tv
My boy also loves to watch tv! He wil stare so intently at the screen, as if understood wat was it abt. Haha… smtimes he kept cryin thn I put him on my lap n face the tv, he instantly stopped cryin =D wil it spoil their eyesight at this age? My mum says beta dun watch for too long….

ant ,

Ya .. i veri lazy to pump and two weeks time me going back to work . Dunno my mum or mum in law can handle him . Cos he seem to be more sticky to me nowadays .

I think i will be very sad and sure miss him alot after spending 12 weeks with him
sad.gif
 
jovial,
i dont think so ... coz i lost most of my weight when my #1 was about 2 yrs old.
for citispa, im going to the jw branch.
im keen to try the tuina leh...can you tell me more? like how many minutes and what does she do to your tummy?how about the butt? does she also massage? is it painful?
sorry for the many many questions hehe :p
 
Hi birdy:
Actually tuina is a way to improve our blood circulation, it relieve my stiff shoulders n water retention. Usually aft giving birth our body will have slight water retention.Whether it has slimming effect i'm nt very sure, but previously when my MIL having her menopause she gain weight n aft several session of tuina, she go back to her size again, so i believe it shold have certain effect. According to the lady, she said tuina can help firm up our flabby skin, so in a way u look better.
happy.gif
the way they do it is similar to our postnatel massage. usually i do 1hr and once per week, she said once it regain my figure then do it 2 times a week to maintain gd health as i'm desk bound so shoulder always v stiff! it a whole body massage so butt included... u can telll her ur target areas so she can work more on it! but bear in mind it painful!
happy.gif
 
jovial,

did u take up a package? and is the oil very sticky and oily type? usually gotta wait for a while before you can take a shower, correct?
 
i didnt took the package, although it cheaper, don like to be restricted..the oil is nt very oily, it jux normal baby oil they using.. i always bring my own firming oil. haha .. u gt to wait 1 to 2 hrs to go shower, if nt nt time "hong sip"
 
panpan,
yes i believe that BF-ing can makes one return to figure faster. I returned to my weight to be4 pregnancy 1 mth after delivery. But then i oni gained 8kg this pregnancy so getting back to pre-preg wt maybe more easier for me.

buttercup,
wow that 7yr old nephew of yours is scary lar. hv to seperate them leh. He is maybe jeolous bah.

muzicgal,
for ur messy hair.. i tried this Korean brand shampoo which is fantastic leh. My hair din do rebond but after washing it seems straight &amp; neat in some way lar. the brand is Henna ar.. I bot from Chinatown one.

Jo,
its good that ur bb slp thruout what. bb who can eat &amp; slp well will put on weight better leh.

WCT,
ya I think most milk bags are standard 160ml one. BUt then of cos i store beyond the 160ml line lor. as long as leaving a gap after zip lock the bag can liao.
Oh that bad leh so nw KKH dun give mommies glass btl liao ar. wow bian.. Lucky i took 20+ btl that time.
actually milk bag also not cheap calculate hor the price of milk bag is = to 1 tin of milk powder but then still BM is the best for bb.
 
jovial,
can u share with me which firming oil you used?

jen,
you only put on 8kg? that's fantastic!!

all mummies,
anyone wants glass bottles? i have about 6 Enfalac A+ bottles (milk still in the bottle). i took it for storing milk but not using them...so if you want them - either for the milk or the bottles...do let me know
 
birdy:
I used clarins oil. i bought it during my pregnancy, but was afraid of that smell so left inside my cupboard 4 very long.. so as nt to waste it, i used it now lor.. I jux went tuina yesterdae n the lady mention tat i slim quite alot on my thights n arms compared to 1 mth ago when she 1st massage me..
happy.gif
so happi.. haha
But bear in mind if u r nt breastfeeding baby anymore then must eat lesser n less oily food..usually I had 3meal a dae but mostly soupy food because diet plays an impt part too... lets jia you and soon can become pretty mama k... :p
 
Jen ,

What.. you only gain 8kg throughout your pregency ! Wow how you manage that hmmm .. I thought should be about 1 kg per month .

In all I gain about 13kg ... phew now have already go back to my pre-pregnacy weight

RE: Eating hand

RE: Weight loss
My wt is stuck @ 62kg and I'm 3kg away from my pre-preg wt. I'm hoping to go back to my previous wt of 51-53kg. I'm trying to wear the binder to slp. My aunt asked me to continue wearing the binder to reduce my tummy. My waist now measures 31, 3 inches wider. *Faint* I'm only having 2 meals a day, mainly soup and occasionally fast food. keke...

RE: Menses
Mine has yet to come.

RE: 'Eating' hands
My gal loves to do that, esp. when she wants to sleep. I tried giving her hanky, pacifier and washable soft toy to nibble. But still, she loves her finger. She sucked her finger until swollen. This morning, when she's drinking, I told her that her fingers are smelly. Tink she understand me, upon hearing that, she stopped drinking and cried, then I said, "nvm, mummy will clean your hands later." After that, she stopped crying and went back drinking. So funny lo.
 
Twinky ,

And is only few drops ...dunno isn`t normal ???

Hahah my son now also like to suck his thumb and playing with his saliva . Is their growing state .And he dun like his pacifier liao !!

hi mummies,

I am new in this thread. My son (firstborn) was born on 15th May. Today he will be exactly 12 weeks. He started chewing on his hand and anything he can get his hands on this week. is it normal? He was not doing it before.

About swimming: can 12 week old baby start to swim? What gear to buy?

I made a simple site for him. You can take a look. Very nice layout and free! http://www.totsites.com/tot//cristiano
 
hi Jas,

welcome to the thread ...

RE : Chewing and eating hands.

This is normal, my boy is 13th weeks, and has already been doing so for the past weeks, and like Baby Jorel, he also dun take pacificer now.

RE : Swimming

Baby are supposed to swimmer when they are borned. This place is quite highly recommended by some of the mummies, so maybe you can bring your boy there to try. I have yet to done so, and as far as i know, they do not wear anything when swimming as the water is warm.

I have added your website to my boy's blog : http://rayden-kwek.blogspot.com/
