[hisstory]

mulberry
Couldn't have survived motherhood, thus far, w/o my hb, i must admit! Weekends he wld always ask me to nap while he puts Ashley to sleep, and everyday he puts her to bed at night..

Seems like there's an improvement to Jasmine's sleep pattern oredi.. *cross fingers & toes* tt this sustains & u can sleep thru the night too!

twin stars
Yah lor, sometimes he's so sweet to the extent tt I feel so bad.. Afterall, I'm paid to stay at home now.. But he totally feels tt caring for my ger, who's bad daytime naps, is more tiring than working wor

He shd have energy to drive, but hopefully not blurblur coz of lack of sleep though..

Luckily u've got a gd maid leh!! So zi dong one.. If only more maids are like this. If they do their job well, quite sure their employers wld also be gd to them..

dongle
Wow!! Cayla's so obedient eh?? I must tell Ashley not to bully daddy & mummy too.. Esp daddy

 

[mousse]

Just to share...
Yesterday when my boy was doing the "gong xi gong xi" (=eating both hands at the same time), my cheeky husband said "god, please let my daddy stike 4D this wed!" haha, gave the whole family a good laugh!

shirley,

tks a lor, gt it oledi.

great 2 hear tt. so it's 1 adult & 1 bb 4 u rite? will email u my ctcs.

 

[valnsw]

hi ladies,
Back from going to Book Fest and meeting hubby for lunch. Think I got record liao, been bringing bb and maid out everyday since last Fri, except yday. Haha

ruixuan,
that pic is so cute!

hisstory,
So far Petpet M size no leakage when poo. Hmm... happens that whenever she poos, she does it at home. As for pee, there was once when she flipped to sleep on her tummy and the pee came out from the side of her thighs. The diaper is ok ard her waist but abit loose on the thighs.

As for staying in the bumbo seat, usually not v long, prob few mins, max I think 10min ba.

Will test again later after her nap and milk.

little twin stars,
Same here, I tell the maid to take naps in the afternoon w baby if she has more or less finished her chores but she also doesn't want initially. But slowly she relented, cos I think she's also tired fr not enough sleep. Sometimes on Fri, I will offer to take care of bb til 1am the next morning. If bb falls asleep before that, then just put bb next to her on the bed, else she will then take over.

haha, so u're the one who "taught" her how to suck her hands. I give up on telling Chevelle not to suck her fists anymore. Cos it doesn't work, so I just let her be, pray hope she will stop soon.

YLN,
is that leggings on your gal? looks so cool!

celyn,
u hv to videotape fr a distance, then Yu Ze cannot see and he can do his stuff. Hehe, that's how I managed to videotape Chevelle babbling.

mulberry,
My gal also can suck her thumb liao, somehow she found it.

dongle,
Cayla is so "dong shi", I wish Chevelle can sleep thru the night soon!

BTW, Any mummy notice your bb wanting to suck on things? Chevelle just now wanted to suck on the cloth covering the rattle!! *faintz*

 

[medusa15]

Shirley
Yes I also want! I cfm fit in all the criteria : p
Can pm me the details?

YLN
Yr gal looks so kewt in the socks/leggings!

Valnsw
Dariwysah has been sucking her fist furiously for the past days.. then I take it away she still continue to put it in her mouth... sometimes she puts it too in till she gags! And yes, she has been pulling her blanket, cloth, bolster and sucking them.. I dun remember my #1 being lidat leh... *scratches head*

 

[reirei]

Aurora,
hahah..so i'm normal afterall!
Everytime i complained to hb abt his mom, he tinks i'm a freak!
His sisters tink i'm 'someting wrong' too, for not letting their mother carry my bb!

Yah! My whole body will oso stiffen, eyes kept 'miao-ing' at mil when she carries or toks to bb..
it was realli killing me initially..but now, i'm learning to take deep breaths and Leeeet Goooo!! Mayb u shld try it too..

Jo,
now mil oni kisses her legs and smells her hair..
so i make sure everytime mil is here or when we go to her place, i will let bb wear long sleeve shirt and pants, and mittens and booties.
If she attacks her face, i will surely scream!

 

[reirei]

Medusa,
Haha..my ger oso has been pulling up her skirt, grabbing her blankie n hankie..but luckily not into her mouth -yet-..
she oso pulls my hair when i carry her upright too!

 

[huichin]

Shirley, me me! I oso interested. PM me k. Thanks!

 

[valnsw]

[doll_puppet]

valnsw/medusa
ya..the leggings i bought from BP here lor..my hubby ask y got skeleton on the socks..heehee...but abit too big lor..the feet part abit long..but the calf part a bit tight..so weird..

my bb has been trying to pull her feet into her mouth ..ah yo..but always miss..then eat her hands!..so furni...i think maybe another few weeks..she should be able to eat her feet ler..!

 

[mousse]

Vone,
Hee hee, me hope so too! Sorry, cant make it this sat cos got class gathering. You mummies and babies have lots of fun, k? Dont forget to take more pics and show off to the rest who cant make it!

 

[doll_puppet]

mummies going to vone's place this sat..
will all of u bring stroller? i dun think i will bring leh cuz i one person cannot carry so many things..i will be taking a cab there so got no hands to carry bb and pram out of cab...will use the sling..but hor..when we eating ..put my bb where?? sigh..maybe must carry her all the way ler..

 

[valnsw]

YLN,
Are the leggings Curseberry ones? The one that this amy(akena) is organising?
Cos I was looking thru the designs and the one on your bb looks familiar.

RE: baby cubes
I remember some mummies, including Annabel's mommy (now blessed mum of 2), celyn and few other were getting baby cubes?
Now there's this BP for 1 oz cubes:
http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/581296/1888072.html?1226997893

Do check it out if you're interested.

 

[valnsw]

YLN,
mb u can ask the taxi driver to help u bring the stroller out of the boot, while u carry her.

 

[doll_puppet]

valnsw
no leh..not that organiser..its another one .i think slpzz..but i think maybe all these design look quite similar ...i think can cover her calfs when she wearing skirt good enuff ler..

but hor...when i flag for cab..also same leh..carry stroller n bb..how to flag..hmm..headache..

 

[2008baby]

mummies..

looking forward to seeing all of u

who is bringing hubby ah...

think the tollyjoy sale quite good...

hey r u guys worried abt the economic crisis?

 

[huichin]

YLN, I oso got ask this qtn earlier haha. I bringing stroller. Yea agree with Val, usually if u take cab hor the cabbie will come out help u put in boot and get it out when u've reached ur destination one. So far i've travelled ard with Bb + Stroller when i took cab the cabbies always auto one. If not auto u must ask(if not scold)! Hahaha...usually when i flagging for cab i will leave bb in the stroller until i getting the cab liao, i quickly carry my girl then close the stroller and wait for the cabbie driver to put it inside the boot. If u cannot handle bb + closing ur stroller i think u can guide the cabbie how to close it. Hehe...

val,
PM naps i dun allow maid to sleep in bb;s room. bb sleeps on my bed. PM naps is my bonding time with bb lor.
bb sucks her fingers when she is awake 4 recreation n sucks pacifier to sleep..........cham. need both wo. jus now i stare at her n told her to take out her fingers n smack her hand very hard. she stop then when my eyes r not so fierce, she starts again. in fact she still laugh at me

she is only scared of hubby. last nt while wiping her, she scream n cry.....it's not time 4 milk yet. hubby was so angry n say we spoilt n scolded her cos all of us were trying to pacify her n she wouldn;t stop. but hubby "raised" his voice n she kept quiet. even my maid was scared. today she tell me sir last nt very fierce. guess i failed as a disciplinarian in the family

my dog also scared of hubby. when hubby scold my dog. my dog will shiver! mayb really need a man's voice to hold the hse :*

Catherine / jo,
It'll also be my first time handling baby alone. Will be driving there w her in tow. Heh, keep fingers crossed ya...

 

[hisstory]

val
heheh, Chevelle so cooperative, only poos at home..
I just tried the M size today, i think i wore it a little loose, so in the end pee leaked out fr the back.. Haiz

I realised like many of tt bbs here, Ashley also likes to sit upright.. If I stop her fr her bout of crying, and carry her in the cradle position, her cries last longer. But once I carry her in the upright position, she diam quite quickly. Time to use my Bumbo lor..

twin stars
Hurray to supportive hubbies.. heehee! U're right, must def treasure & show appreciation for their shoulder we lean on

hahah, Georgine sucks fingers for 'recreation' ah?

 

[blue_aurora]

huichin,
haha I'm sure i can relate to it v well. it's ok lah, u dun have to.. i think mediacorp will broadcast it for CNY most prob. I'll be bringing stroller. a bit troublesome, but can let bb sleep in it.

Re: balding
my boy oso losing hair (me too!!!

) So, mil was nagging at me to shave him this week when he turns 4mths. So this sat u will see a botak bb!

haha our babies sure can hit off v well.. patterns all same liao liao.

yln,
ur gal so cute with her 'astounded' look. hehe

Reirei,

[fitbaby]

Re: balding
Aurora, my girl is her losing hair too. So sad...when she was born, her head full of hair and now thinning (me too with lots of baby hair jutting out!!!)At this stage still has no intention to botak her...he...hee
