Wanna sell it ... who wants to buy? i post pic later.

Catherine,
Thanks!

Shint,
mine when I put the pacifier in she wail real loud. But i dun care just keep holding on the the pacifier until she suck. Very bad hor.
 
celyn,
each time i post, i am prob pumping .. haha, so can know my pumping schedule.
Now how much milk u all pumping ah?

Making icepacks for cooler bag
********************************
Share a trick for icepacks for cooler bags. If the cooler bag ice cannot last long enough, what i did was use the Lanosin milkbags and fill up with water then freeze it. It lasted about 8 hours leh.

Nonetheless, i oredi bought my Pigeon FTG and prob will make a pack to put on top or bottom.
This is a cheap and good method .. i think. So long the milkbag dun burst la ..... so be careful when u use tat (use another waterproof layer) ..... can recycle some more, if dun wan to carry the weight, just pour out the water once it melted. hee.

I tried once and it lasted me >6 hours outside ... without a specialised cooler bag.

This is if u find those blue icecubes too heavy to carry ... then can pour out those oredi become water if too heavy. I freeze some in case i dun have enough to keep cold, cos i haven;t bought the blue icepacks yet.
 
msapple,
mine will go oik oik oik (complaining) but we still hold it there then soon he ok liao.

Sometimes he looks like he is trying to hold the paci. Good if he can hold it then dropping out is lesser chance then waking up is lesser oso.
Next time must train him how to look for paci on his bed - i did tat for #1 and it saved me from waking up so often ;)
 
Thanks mommies who PM their contact. Have saved.

Hello mummies

Catherine
Yeah think you are rite, cos use the babybjorn cannot slouch... so thats why the ache comes on.
Yeah I also dunno why the drolling starts... sometimes worst, darwisyah will put her whole fist in her mouth and suck and suck, like eating drumstick lidat, tho she just finish her milk.. aiyo!

Snow
When I send my boy to cc last 2 weeks, when see him cry, I also.. : p Surely will one, cos we cannt bear to ma, but after some days they will be used to the school routine. Every morning, the cc got play the national anthem at 9am one.. somemore got say pledge somemore. Then you see all of them small small standing at attention, very kewt one!

Fariekim
Yeah most impt is convenient to pick yr gal up. So far LV at tp quite good lah. I am quite happy with the teachers there and my boy seems quite happy there, tho he still will cry when my hubby bids him farewell every am. But after that he will be ok.. its the goodbye part. Like initially, first few days, my boy even cries when he puts on his uniform and each time he comes back from cc, he will be super clingy to me and wants my attention. Now 2 weeks liao, he knows that he needs to go sch in the am and after he comes back, he like look quite happy, haha. So I think maybe give them about 2-4 weeks to adapt. When you starting?
 
okie mummies....eastern ladies..

tmr wanna gather at my place?
happy.gif
i got tea/biscuits lah..

Faeriekim, thnks for offering a ride again. Since i'm not going for the gathering (which is happening now haha), u enjoy k! Hehe...

val
Am really hoping & praying real hard tt she wld be able to fall asleep more easily as her sleep pattern matures.

Today she cried less before sleeping, i had to carry her but didn't rock nor pat her, just hummed a tune.. She woke up aft 30min cried badly coz i cldn't hear her, but aft picking her up & humming again, she's now asleep..

Btw, i bought the mobile sarong & sad to say, she doesnt take to it.. *faint* Easier to put her to sleep, but she cried when i stopped rocking, so jialat hor? But also gd lah, coz i want to train her to sleep in the cot.

Really hope things improve quickly, before my mum returns home & i've got to handle her alone..
happy.gif


amabel's mommy
Today i've tried what u mentioned, let her eh abit more before i attend to her, otherwise she wld expect me all the time. Where got time ah??

Only when she cried quite abit then i carried her & hummed till she slept & then return her to the cot. I hope to kick the habit of her requiring us to rock her, so now eliminating rocking, just carry & hum a tune..

My ger doesn't take to the pacifier too!! Yest i tried for half an hr leh.. Dunno if what others say is true, BF bb dun really like pacifiers. I rather her taking pacifier than sucking her thumb, coz it's easier to wean

Ur ger's thumb must be finger licking gd!!

interrace
Well done man! Ur boy is highly adaptable, when he goes army in future, he wld hav no prob sleeping in the uncomfortable conditions!!
happy.gif


M2B
outgrow liao?? Tt's really fast! Maybe i take over fr u? *heehee*
Oh u also kind of use the cry-it-out method.. I shall try this weekend when my mum's not ard. She thinks we're torturing my ger to let her cry leh

shint
Sounds like ur boy's sleep pattern abit like my ger's.. Except, this terrible pattern has been for weeks.. *faint*
 
hisstory,
i don't think its true that bf babies don't like pacifier. my boy likes leh. sleep time must give. if it drops when he sleeps liao then its fine. if not, must return it back to him. sometimes, he will try to use his hand to prevent it from droping. heheh...
 
Re eastern gathering
I also want! But I cant
sad.gif
(
Cos I got to work...so sad!

Hisstory
My gal also will cry quite a bit when she wants to sleep.. worst is I dun give sarong nor pacifier.. so sometimes she will just fall asleep after crying for a while.. I did try sarong, tho I am not really keen but strange thing is that she dun like leh.. not all bbs will take to sarong one. As for pacifier, I never even buy, hehe! cos if buy cfm my MIL will give...So sometimes she end up sucking on her fist : p
Dun worry too much, sometimes bb also go thru patterns after a while they will be ok.
 
celyn
heheh, i also dunno if tt holds truth, but many ppl have this idea. How i wish my ger is as clever as ur Yu Ze, heheh, knows how to hold the pacifier!! So cute ;)

Medusa
Am trying to stay as positive as i can & find joy in whatever success i have in making her sleep as painlessly for her & myself
happy.gif
*heheh*
Really do hope she gets out of this phase fast..

Ur ger will fall asleep in ur arms or in the cot?
 
sure...2pm also can...bring the babies on...and the toddlers
happy.gif


okie later i pte message u my address okie?
happy.gif


catherine..how..now at home..u can come with bernice lah....and val also rite?

anymore?
 
hisstory,
hahah... i'm sure she will learn how to hold the pacifier soon. last time, he also don't know how. cos he sleeps on his tummy, so when he turn his head, pacifier will drop then he cry. slowly, he learn to suck and hold the pacifier when he turn his head so that pacifier will follow too. hahah....

he got new pattern now. he can suck pacifier and his thumb together. so he will have both pacifier and his thumb in his mouth. he can do the same thing when he latch too leh. clever right. sigh.... wonder where he learn all these tricks from. so now even when he suck pacifier, i must also make sure that his thumb is not in his mouth.
 
Thanks Megan! This is my last outing on weekdays wor! Next Mon start work liao sob!

Ya lohs anymore mummies joining? Hehe...
 
huichin,
hahah.... yah, really smart in the wrong way.

just to share how naughty he is. babysitter will bring him downstairs for a walk in the stroller, come back she will still leave him in the stroller and he is ok. he can stay in there for 3 hours without complaints. upon hearing this, we were so glad and went to get a stroller too.

guess what happen, he can only stay in there for 15 mins and he started crying and screaming. so i got to carry him, can't put him in stroller liao. i told babysitter about what happen and she is quite shock to hear that.

she did an experiment with him. she put him in her friend's stroller to try out. he also started crying and screaming and refuse to sit in there. you see how naughty he is. he only wants to sit in 1 particular stroller, the rest he don't want. babysitter says she will let him sit in different strollers and let him get used to it and not to be fussy so it will be easier for us.
 
Megan,
I wana go too leh... but gota make arrangemts.
Hope my mum doesn't spring some surprise like some handyman coming in tmrw then gota jagar at home.

If I go, its either me alone or myself with bb. Can I confirm w u later, cos duno if hv appt in aftn or at night but not yet cfm...
 
Hisstory
My gal must carry then sleep... cannot sleep on the cot on her own cos put her in, she will eh eh eh.. sometimes she will smile at her "friends"
from the mobile hanging on her cot.
Usually before she sleep, she will fuss abit then I will just pat pat her then after that she will doze off. I haven really use the rocking method.
 
Rata, Twin Stars & Ruixuan,
Need to cfm 03 Nov Mon meeting this weekend coz dun know whatz hb’s schedule lor…sorry leh…if not, you gals can go ahead 1st.

Medusa,
Ya, once your boy adapt liao then you will see that he will start enjoying gg to school and trust me, you will feel so good and happy too. =P

Hi 5! This time rd, I oso never buy any pacifiers.

Hisstory,
Ya, my gal outgrow the 0-3mths rompers and pajamas liao, you want? Heehee

Yap, I used that method and it works well for both my gals…#1, my parents said I so cruel but this time rd, they know it works so never say anything liao…heehee

BTW, Ashley doesn’t like the bouncer/rocker anymore? My gal still like it a lot and most of the times she is in there instead of us carrying her…My instruction to my parents is minimize carrying for their own good.
 
M2B

cool seeing the faces behind the nicks!
 
cindy: I threw away my breastmilk after pumping out when I went for a short overseas trip. Initially, I stored the milk in the hotel's room, transport the milk back to sg, then realise the milk had sour smell. So I threw the milk away. Really waste my effort.

Cocomo: I got some extra milk bags.. 1 pack has 40 pcs.. let me know if u are keen.

Those frozen breast milk can store in the freezer for how long huh?
 
mrslow,dongle & mini,
Thanks for the advise regarding fbm. I will try out the diff methods to see which one works else will hv to give away.
