feifei
Avril also has a gap between her 2 front teeth. My colleague say is like that will get better as they grow up so dun worry.

Tell your MIL only inexperienced mummy will say that hahahah
 


Hi Roxy,
Thanks. Will check it out with my husband, he's a scaredy cat. Always asking me to avoid dangerous places. Don;t wan him to nag me abt it.
 
roxy,
yay, sounds like isaiah's starting to walk!
happy.gif
btw, where did u get the FP table? i just went to their website and saw this laugh and learn with friends table? did u get this?

i am also looking at getting an activity table since my boy prefers to stand and play most of the time now.

feifei,
dun be too bothered abt ur MIL's comments regarding charolotte's teeth. the gap will usu close up and like wat the rest of the girls say, its good cos allows space for other teeth.

actually, i also dun quite know how to wash lucas' hair, hehe. think i will try war_angel's method. use shower spray.
 
roxy,

yah best place is baby cot for him too. but nothing much in the cot, he gets bored easily.

Looks like i am a bit slow! Mine only playing with hand toys lor.. hee. hb want to save money, keep tinking dun buy those complicated toys cos he tink bb dun seems to like them.
 
Tera,
tks ger..ya lor, i tinkingof getting e plastic ring frm daiso =)...I also tinking of getting an activity table...Noramlly during the FP warehouse sales, there will be good buys de...my frenz bot 1 of e tables at a good price wor..
 
Re: Bathing

Oh dear.. I bath my ger the wrong way for 11mths! I use the same water for washing off shampoo to wash off soap on her body. She's not using head to toe shampoo. O_O

Warrior, u mention u use scoop to rinse off before putting her into the tub & shampoo her little body. So when u washing her hair/face where do you put her?

Re: Red dot spots
Mummies, I notice many days when comes to evening time, my ger tighs will appear many red dot by morning it will disappear. Seems like not allergic to food. Till now I still couldn't find out what causes those spots appear. Anyone knows can advise?
 
sharon,

dunnoo. is it sensitive skin?

Yah PD clinic nurse say to wash hair with separate basin with shampoo, then bathe in bathtub.
 
feifei,
Ivory teeth also got grip. Is normal. Dun worry, be happy.

Ellysia,
She got minor eczema but this problem only start last month. I not sure is it she sticky or floor/toy/bed dirty. But all these we clean it everyday. Aiyo.. headach.

hi tera
We hope now, he's been making mad dash from 1 side of playpen to the other side, recently making slow steady steps, hope can walk soon
happy.gif
Strongly encourage u to buy activity table for him, can entertain them for long periods of time
http://www.amazon.com/Fisher-Price-Laugh-Learn-Learning/dp/B00023HVKC Dis the one I have, bought it at FP sale, original price was $100, sales was $40. Grand piano was $140, sale was $60... dat time isaiah haven even deliver yet, i insisted with hubby to buy, luckily make right decision :p Super funny whenever he play on piano, when music comes, he will hold on to it and shake his butt and dance but he spoil his piano le



ellysia
Those toys are life savers... we let them play since he was 5 mths old n really entertains him while we can finally relax for a while... yes, play pen is best but very small space

help/advises needed.. TIA..
happy.gif


Floyce has became a light sleeper.. she'll wake up 2.30am.. stand or stand in her cot, sometimes, she'll throw her pacificer away.. after which, she'll cry..

This happen frequently for the past few nights.. every half an hr or 15 mins..

But then, when i pat her or touch her and say, "Pls go to sleep".. she'll lie down and sleep.. then again, she'll wake up 15/30mins later.. over &amp; over again...

Is this some kind of separation anxiety?? I dun see this happen when bbsitter came to fetch her in the morning ley..

How?? I'm getting tired and zombie each day..
sad.gif
 
Tera,
They just reply my email on my enquiry for courses at Tanglin Village. They ask me to send info of lucas over to Tanglin and they'll call me once there is opening. Or i can start lesson in Suntec and transfer later or wait till there is opening to start. I'm still considering. Most prob go direct Tanglin.
U might want to try their trial before deciding the location.
Pop them an email, but got to be patient with their reply. I just run through the registration form and saw their tel: 64635554. Just called but no one pick up.
 
War_angel,
Lucas is also like light sleeper jus like me. A little noise he wake up at night and at times he jus suddenly jump up. But when I tell me I'm here, he'll lay down n fall asleep again. Past few days he woke up at 6am to play ball, then another day he woke up at 3am saw his father eating supper n ask for 'mummum". I too became a Panda and feel tired..
Some ppl told me cause they play too much in the day. They advise me not to play too exciting games with him toward the night.
 
bizznow,

Tera,

feifei,
i couldn't find the one roxy and bizz has in fisherprice website. so i went to see amazon spree. i saw that amazon selling $92. after conversion, its about $139 wor. then i think its cheaper to get it in SGP since its $119. the FP sales was around Nov/Dec right? Haiz, can't possibly wait till then.

yups, we need to get the 12-24 mths warmas!
happy.gif

Kris

My boy is also a light sleeper and will wake up with little noise. Actually can't help playing more during the day bec he is active also.

For course, i planning to wait until 18mths, then will maybe let my boy attend My Little skool enrichment classes. recently i just ask them for info, seems quite good. And best thing is its v near to my house.

roxy

my life saver is the jumperoo but he has grown tired of it now since playing from 4mths.

bizzsnow,

I did not get during the FP sale. But i bot a tricycle which can be used after he get 1 yr old.
 
angel,
do u have to join your hubby? if not, just come with sheryl?
happy.gif
i prob going on my own if my hubby cannot make it on that day.

roxy,
oh i see. seems like FP is replacing with this laugh and learn muscial table. but i think the one u bought looks better leh. :p

feifei,
i think its using velcro at the back of the straps.
happy.gif
 
sharon,

eczema tend to worsen with dirt/dust contact. my boy rashes will appear if he touch dust/dirt.

or maybe yr air-con/fan is dirty if u let him sleep with these at nite. or maybe too heaty also can worsen eczema.
 
Tera,

actually i didn't see it at toy rus on last weekend i go. But their website have..

seems interesting. there another discovery table $79.90 also.
 
ellysia,
oh, toys r us dun have? heh, i was still thinking of going there to take a look later. is there another discovery table? can post the link pls?
happy.gif
 
Hi bizznow,

No problem.. I understand. Tough job for you to plan all this.

Then can i ask will it mess up the distribution of money if i bring more adults? I'm thinking if my husband can't make it, can i ask my mum n my bro along (my younger bro always follow my mum)? So that i can have more adults to help me. /but not confirmed yet, still need to ask whether my mum is free not..

Tera: To tell u the truth, i have not brought sheryl out alone beyond bukit panjang n cck.. cos i scare i can't handle sheryl alone for too long.. maybe i can consider take cab.. see how.. But you drive right? That helps alot...
 
ellysia: oh... you oso same huh? i thot i'm the onli one eh..

when i was typing, i was still thinking what a lousy mummy i must be.. many other mummies have bring their babies out so so many times loh.. sigh.. but until now i still dun dare to bring bb out to faraway places.. like you said, won't exceed 2 hours..
 
angel,

so far i only bring him to amk hub alone for 1 hr/1.5hr nia.

i scared if he cry or anyting, i dunno how to cope outside.

moreoever i usu dun bring stroller out alone, v heavy for me. i bring carrier, cannot carry too long else shoulders v pain.
 
<font color="blue">hey angel_z,
glad dat u understand my situation..hehe..i think bringing an additional adult is not an issue lah..cos i've oredi started collecting $$ so i dun 1 2 mess it up..if really no choice..i rather u come wif ur mum n bro too..
happy.gif
</font>
 
<font color="blue">ooh..n for the activity table dat both me n roxyz have hor..i think u can get it from kiddy palace..i've seen it there b4..maybe u all can try calling..i like the songs from the activity table..got 1 counting song n ABC song..hehe..</font>
 
roxy,
I also intereted in e leapfrog table but tink it will be ex if order frm overseas wor..

bizznow,
I also ever saw Kp has the table wor...But so far, haven seen e leapfrog one hor..
 
feifei,
leapfrog one which is good?

ellysia,
thanks for the link. i am goign to call suntec branch to check.
happy.gif


angel,
i also cannot bring baby out on my own for long time, hehe. think longest was 2 hours and somewhere nearby. dun mean to make u feel bad, u are not alone.
 
Hi Ellysia,
My husband insist to send Lucas to EtonHouse. But i felt its quite far from my place as the nearest is in Mountbattern and the school fees so X. Cause his sis send his son there saying that its quite gd. I'm still considering. Wat do you think?

Angel,
Don worry, ur not alone. I can't handle goin out with my son alone too. Got to ask my mum or maid to follow. Cause Lucas don sit in pram, got to carry him in Sling.
 
angel u very good le, brought sheryl out alone.. e most i ever brought him out alone is to my mum place 5 min away dats it. Im scared i cannot handle him alone in car and he start crying and im driving sure very stress...


feifei, yeah loh, sure exp.. i go see allaboardtoys got sale boh.. or any amazon spree going on...


tera, the leapfrog activity table seems not bad, im tinking of buying 1 more table for him also...and yes, i love the fp table, alot of tunes and i myself am very fascinated with it still :p even the grand piano is not so fun
 
<font color="blue">roxyz,
me too..i like the tunes in the fp table..so nice rite..sometimes i will sing to the tune to my boy also..hehe..
happy.gif
</font>
 
bizznow: ok.. will go ask my mum tonight..

tera: no lah.. no worries.. its not you.. its jus that when i was typing out my post, i thot other ppl read aledi might think i CMI cos me myself think i'm CMI ma...

kris, roxy: heehee... ok.. you all make me feel i'm not the onli weird one around..

roxy: no lah.. i not good lah.. i onli bring sheryl to go bukit panjang plaza or lot one walk walk nia.. near my house n my mum's house.. and i dun walk very long loh.. not more than 2 hours de..

i dun drive la... but i was thinking even if i drive, i oso dun dare to bring sheryl out alone.. how to concentrate on driving if baby starts fussing man?!? so very pei fu those mummies who can drive bb out alone..
 


I don dare to drive Lucas out alone. He never sit still in car seat, worst is when i put him in pram, he wan to jump out of it. I really envy those mother whose baby sits in the pram.
