siesta,
you can come for trial on fri 3pm if you want.. still have a few more sessions for this unit. let me know if you interested
diff mummies feel differently about whether if the babies are too young for the class. My advise is that you should try it yourself to see. Bernice seems to be enjoying, but it takes awhile to warm up. She's into her 4 week now. the other babies are abit older than her and sometimes they jsut crawl away in the middle of session or drink their milk, etc.
happydough,
ehh I abit bo chap, i use tap water.

Hisstory,
Well.. he turns five months this Thurs.. so.. it's been five months so far. I guess this is one of the 'cons' of direct BF. He doesn't take to the bottle at all. He started refusing the bottle from the 2nd-odd month onwards.
Timminbuzz,
No, I've not read the book yet. And the book has helped you lots? If so.. then maybe I should go get a copy soon. Very very soon..

yeah...i found this book useful for me. maybe you can see if you can borrow a copy from the library and if you find that it's good, then can purchase. i used it to train my baby to fall asleep on his own at night. i refer to it for day naps too. my friend found it useful too. have a read and see if you're comfortable with his methods before purchasing.
today, my baby has been able to nap on his own in the cot. yay! he cried for about 10-15min each time and fell asleep on his own. quite relieved.

Fitbaby,
Trudy is sooooo adorable !
Happydough,
I also use warm tap water. I haven't even thought of using boiled water.
Val,

Sounds like there's improvement to ur boy's naps! Tt's gd.. U're much better than me, i dun think i can tahan my ger's cries for more than 5min
Wendy
Same here.. I directly latch my ger on & have tried bottle feed here & there, very randomly. It's abt 2+ mths till i return to work, i have to work hard for her to be accustomed to taking to the bottle
Are u a SAHM?
Oh yah, generally dun let bb fall asleep on the breast.. If not shd u have to be away fr bb, bb will have lots of trouble to fall asleep on his own coz he needs to suckle to sleep
Quite a few mummies i know who suffered fr this problem really warn against this habit..

So sad to see SL lost so much weight. Did his PD recommend anything to take as to increase his appetite?
Catherine
Trudy did that to me, too
Very painful...I scolded her but she smiled to me (heart melt and smiled back to her). Aiyoh...next time, don't know how to discipline her.
Thanks mommies but we are very worry for her size

feeding:
today made the wrong decision of feeding jonah cereal too late. he woke up ard 11am but decided to wait till 11.45am to feed so that i can follow up with milk during his regular 12pm feed. end up he cried furiously during cereal time and i had to literally force the food down his throat with water. dunno why he cry like mad today. he's been very cranky today. only manage to sleep one hour in between feeds. dunno if he's getting enough sleep man.
sleep:
the boy still can't sleep independently. these 2 days, tried to put him to sleep during the day w/o swaddler. he can only tahan for one hour. once his hands move, he will wake up liao. i also tried not rocking him to sleep. didn't work. after hearing him cry for more than 15 mins and trying to pat him in his cot, i picked him up. he slept within 1 minute in my arm! *sigh* that boy still can't be independent...yet.

My msn something wrong today, cannot login. Yup, just called today to sign up...if we are starting the week after CNY, then it's for remaining 8 lessons. Must pay for registration $40 (or is it $50), deposit $100 and school tee(so cute!)...the teacher will be consistent.

Wendy,
I also have this problem and know is very frustrating for not able to do anything else.But slowly I trained Meredith til now, when she is in deep sleep, then i will put her on bed.
But sometimes when she is cranky or when she wakes up too early, I will still have to hug her to sleep. I just have to work base on daily basis.
As for latch-on to sleep, Meredith loves to do that. But I made it just another choice to sleep. Sometimes rock her to sleep while sometimes, in the pram to sleep,etc. So in long run, she will be more flexible.

Hi Hisstory,
Yes.. I'm a SAHM. It's way tougher than I thought it would be. But I constantly tell myself that it will get easier.
Thanks Nini,
I'll remember to check with my PD when we next visit her. It's really quite sad if there is a whole long list of foods to avoid at their age.
Hi Sylvia,
I think my boy can differentiate between day and night. At night usually we put him down when he sleeps and we get no resistance but it's different during the day.
Anyway.. just tried to put him down again for his morning nap. So far ok.. of course he was put down after dozing off at the breast. I notice that when I am able to put him down for day naps, he fidgets quite a fair bit every few minutes.. in REM. After the REM cycle.. he'll wake up.. usually.
