krex,
yumin is aso hooked on the pacifier. like you say, her bottom teeth is misaligned. we agree if her if the next set of teeth is misaligned, we will put her on braces in primary school.

snow,
going anyway?

i'm going to toh guan to service my pump, then to MP to pass to/collect from celyn, need these to be done by 1130am. still pumping at home. last bit.

krex,
how's jonah?
my boys do not use the pacifier nor the thumb. my gal use her thumb and rejects the pacifier. i rather she use the pacifier, its easier to wean off. she suck her thumb so much that sometimes her thumb sore...

timmin,
yes, cannot wean her from her thumb yet. even with cute plasters... she is 3yo.

[krex78]

hi mommies,

tks for taking part in the survey. for those who didn't use pacifier and bbs suck thumb, did u find it a problem? e.g. unhygenic when they start crawling, or hand become deformed coz' always in the mouth? if generally ok, i would prefer not to give pacifier if (and when) i have #2. now so hard to wean off and kinda regret giving jonah the pacifier, though he's not totally dependent on it the whole day. just for sleeping time and when he's cranky only. i wouldn't know how often my in laws give it to him but hopefully now at every opportunity!

if anyone managed to wean bb off pacifier, pls share with me. i'm already considering putting something bitter on it so it will sting his tongue, haha. but what to put leh? scared he will develop allergy if i put something like bittergourd, haha.

BB M is 10mth old. very sensitive to sound n will jump even now, but dunno why can sleep thru Transformer leh.

I bought lean minced beef and again as Timmin advised, I got them to double mince it for me so that it's extra fine!

True that we won't know which part of the cow the meat is from.. but I guess if buy from say Cold Storage (which was where I bought at), should be quite safe bah..

So do you cook your beef in slices first.. then mince it later for bb?

Introduced it to the boy today and he was ok with it. Actually finished his porridge!! And he hardly does that..

YLN
Guess what.. my friend just bought my boy the Doidy cup! I will let him try it out tomorrow and will let you know how it is. But according to my friend, her 7-mth old girl loves it!

something to share with all Leo Babies' mom

Leo baby
July 23-Aug 22

The Leo baby is bright, sunny, strong, friendly and loves attention and affection but likely to set foot where angles fear. They seek attention if positive attention is not forth coming and turn to negative behavior to get needed attention. They want moms and dads to be proud of them and want you to acknowledge their achievements and tell them that they did well. They need encouragement for creativity and remember, leo baby demands goodnight hugs and kisses from the whole family at bedtimes!

<font color="#CD3278">Wendy</font>
Ooh, so glad to hear bb D enjoyed his porridge!! Any more to spare? heheh

 

[doll_puppet]

wendy

[mum_on_the_go]

Cat,
really cheaper and worth it to do polliwogs during weekdays hor. Guess at times like this should really spend $ wisely. Good choice !

Huichin,
I should be going tomorrow. Will you be there??

 

[apriltan]

Hi Mummies, Just to update the Polliwogs gathering is still On tomorrow @1.30pm. See you there...

 

[rona]

pinky,
always pump and do something else. at work, i will use one hand - the whole hand to hold on both funnels and pump and the other hand will work, like churn out reports from the computer, puts in an order, invoicing and emailing. the typing is slower lah, but all can be done.

 

[rona]

sylvia,
afternoon supposed to go for my cousin's ROM, but i went to service my pump late and we were late at the ceremony!!! kicking myself still! but we still had lunch there. arrived there just in time for lunch... right after the ceremony.

if i'm not wrong. there are two mindchamps outlets at east coast, near katong mall. don't know about the queue, but the last time i call still got vacancy, but that was beginning of this year. didn't know they are hot potato now... tried to see if any reviews, but can't find any. let us know your cousin's feedback.

[krex78]

rona,

never tried that method before. usually i use pumpkin' pal for the 1st half of my pump so i'm totally hands free. then 2nd half of my pump i'll use celyn's method and rest one side on my thigh to support and use the free hand to type. maybe i'll try your method today, haha.

ling,

wanted to wean jonah long time ago coz' i read that the older the harder to wean. i think pacifier is addictive and can cause problems, like speech dvpt, crooked teeth, ear infection, sleep prob (can't sleep independently), etc. i can't imagine him walking ard with pacificer when he can start walking. looks awful! but i tink it will be TOUGH. he can't sleep without the pacifier and it's the only thing that can stop him crying when he's upset/ cranky. thankfully he doesn't need it all day, only during sleepy time.

 

[dardar63]

morning mummies
enjoy your fun at polliwogs

rona
ya i read up on them and thot they were quite good.. will see how my nephew enjoys it there and let u know. but knowing my cousin she no good also will say good to save face cos she spend so much ma.. until now she still say chiltern is good IF you have lots of time to prep the child urself for P1. I told her then I might as well home school her .. crap. haha. anyway will see myself how my nephew is.

happymummy
ya it's a good way to spend the afternoon.. reading magazines.. free internet.. only wish got pedicure ..haha. oh and their toilet not done up yet.. another setback

 

[krex78]

hi mommies,

was looking thru my files and saw this aug 08 3rd mth collage. brings back memories! i think this was done by shint then?

how? can some talented mommy do one for aug 08 1-yr babies? that would be a milestone, and we can see how our bbs have grown since then, haha.

 

[celynlee]

krex78,

Hisstory
Hee.. can come over for lunch today.. the boy having beef porridge again. Cos set aside 10g of minced beef per meal, then when preparing his dinner, realised that 10g might be too much.. so only gave half. Like so pathetic, right? Haha.. but my boy gags very easily so I won't try to overwhelm him.. esp with a new meat.

So.. today he'll have the other 5g of beef!!

YLN
I let D try the cup today. Not too bad.. he is very curious and wants to hold it himself but of course I help otherwise there will be even more water spillage.

I think it's a great learning cup

 

[whatodo]

Sylvia,

PP quite worth it. If your spendings after 15% discount is greater than $80, you still can get $15 voucher. I only managed to get the voucher. But saying this, PP in spore is way too ex, saw this dress going for $46, if buy in UK, so much cheaper.

 

[rona]

Sam,
i cheapo mummy... always wait for sale... hehehe...
