reirei,
same here, Chevelle doesn't really want milk immediately after waking up. She will play awhile.
I also draw down the curtains and switch on aircon
In a way, they tend to sleep longer. Think the aircon shiok for them.
Not bad, Char can take 170ml. Chevelle is still stuck at 120ml and she doesn't finish it all
Catherine,
I usually will let her drink after she wakes up but I find that nowadays Chevelle doesn't wana drink after waking up. So like reirei, let bb play til she's hungry she will eh for milk.
hisstory,
Ya take comfort that at least Ashley naps 30min. My gal sometimes takes 1-2 hr stretch. Else she will also sleep in 30-min blocks.
timminbuzz,
Sometimes, she's too tired, she will take evening nap, meaning 5+ til 7pm. No choice, she just wants to sleep. But that doesn't happen too frequently. *keeps fingers crossed*
On average, Chevelle sleeps abt 10hr +/-. Gd day she can sleep 12hrs.

hisstory,
hehe, what you described to timminbuzz abt your gal like monkey god in her own cot sounds like mine too.
Just now left her to play in the cot, she kept kicking on the mattress that i heard the thump thump sounds. Few minutes later, I went to her cos I sensed her impatience liao, as the thumping sounds got more agitated. Next thing I knew, she was about to cry with her mouth turning downwards.
Haiz, my bb is so clingy!

Sometimes my ger also wakes at 6+, then i wld be super sian coz i am so tired to handle her at such an 'unearthly' hour.. Try to send her back to sleep as such *hahah*
Advised to rock ah? Maybe tt helps to get bb to transit between light & deep sleep.. Dunno leh
val
Chevelle sounds so adorable & very sociable.. Her sign is to keep quiet when she needs to poo, like she needs utter concentration.. hee!!
Ashley wld eheheh when she's unhappy tt she's left alone.. Then mummy must be able to multitask at times, put her in the rocker, talk to her, sing songs to her, play peek a boo while doing other things.. heheh
Some bk says to print our pix & put in the cot, so bb thinks they are still seeing us ard.. Interesting!

lingling,
same here, the max that my bb can last without milk and sleep is 5 hrs. Still waiting for the day when she will learn to sleep thru the night.
hisstory,
er hems... I duno if Chevelle's sociable or not. She's okie w people whom she's familiar, but when she's in a place w lotsa strangers and v noisy places, she will wail like anything.
It's been tested and proven twice alrdy. Cos once to wedding dinner and another time was a family friend's gathering. Both venues were v noisy and she couldn't take the noise and attention.
ya, hv to multi-task now. U wldn't believe it but I also gota entertain her. Sometimes I dump her into the walker, she will weh unless I play w her. But at times, I just let her weh and then she realises nobody pays attention to her, so no choice. haha

looking at all the sleeping times, think most are the same?
Meredith wakes up at 6-7am for milk, then sleep til 8am+. So I let her play herself, flip and move around in my bed til I fully awake. Then bath her ,feed her then latch on n sleep.
I cant place her in cot laying down flat. So I got a supporter with some items swinging for her to 45 degree sitting n playing , So I can do my things. She will kick and play and look at her mobile,etc... til she is flat then she will make noise.
Hahaha!!
but... she only sleep at 10-11pm. 6+pm she will nap and very active at 7-9pm. She usually sleep thru 2- 4 hrs at nite.

re: driving alone
I had the most stressful and horrible experience driving bb in the carseat. Usu my hb drives i carry her or i drive my mom carry her. today my mom wasnt free to go for kindermusik with me and my hb well .. he wanted to sleep. (fedup with him cos he made me wait until 2pm then ask me go myself) So cos of my stupid hb, bernice missed her nap cos usu she would nap in the car ride there. Today put her in and 5 mins onto the road, which on PIE she started to scream and scream.. enter CTE scream and scream .. no choice maid took her out from carseat to carry her.. still screaming. AIYO. then my maid tried to pacify her patting the car seat (pat pat pat) .. knocking the ceiling of the car (bonk bonk bonk) .. already a screaming baby driving me nuts, plus my maid and her banging.. traffic lights pass to me to stop her, pass back scream again..
After kindermusik, she was asleep, put her on the carseat.. 5 mins out of carpark, wake up and scream and scream again .. give her milk she dont want... scream and scream.. maid take her out, still scream .. aiyo. i had to stop the car midway to calm her down cos she was cying until like no breath le...
i was so stressed out ..

ling,
trial n error loh. last time once I move away, she will fuss n cry. But I hv eat, bath n even wash her bath tub, etc, so I try different methods to see how i can get some time out. The supporter is so far the best as it can let her play for approx 15mins -30mins. When she play on the bed, she will pull her feet, flip, etc, so I just lay or sit at the edge so that when she look around for me, I am there.
Sometimes when she sleep, she will suddenly open eye big big, once she saw me, she fall into deep sleep right away. So quite funny!!
In case I wont be up.....
Happy NIU year!! Hope all mummies healthy n pretty!! All babies grow up healthy & happy!

I also leave her in the rocker to entertain herself.. Sometimes out of the blue, she looked fine then she suddenly breaks out in tears, very cham kind.. Then I must move her with the rocker to wherever i am
sylvia
wow, ur bb can stay up till 10-11pm...
catherine
*hugs* Can imagine the stress... Hope she has recovered fr the bouts of crying, and you too!!

krex78, celynlee, valnsw, sylvia,
Thanks for the response for the baby bonus and CDA account. I called MCYS today and realised that my account was not setup. Hence, I have not been given any $$ yet.
Dunno if it's TMC or the ocbc counter at TMC screwed up my application but I would need to resubmit the documents.
Then after that can I set up the CDA account.
Phew, salvaged my $3000. hahha.

sleeping:
i put my boy on a sleep routine. it's something like:
feed (milk) - bath - sleep - feed (milk) - play - feed (cereal) - sleep - feed (milk) - play - feed (cereal) - sleep - feed (milk) - play - towel time/ sleep if possible - feed - sleep (through the night hopefully)
with this pattern, he naps for about 1 to 1 1/2 hrs on average. on days when he's really tired, he can nap up to 2 hours. he goes to bed late though, ard 11.30pm or 12am since his last feed is at 11pm. so we try to make sure he has enough naps during the day. these days, he seems to wake up during the night, dunno if it's becoz of the weather. noticed that when he sleeps in his own cot in his own room, he tends to wake up more often. he does not sleep in aircon room. but on weekends when he rooms in with us in a cosy portable bed, he does not wake up till milk time the next morning. we're guessing it cld be the environment - either he likes aircon or the cosy portable bed, heh heh. but he's going to outgrow it soon so we hope it's something to do with the aircon - at least the problem can be solved, though it will burn a hole in our pockets!
HT cereal:
how much is it? i'd like to order but i won't be going for the gathering as i'm not a SAHM. will prob get the mixed grain cereal and maybe some teething biscuits.

with this pattern, he naps for about 1 to 1 1/2 hrs on average. on days when he's really tired, he can nap up to 2 hours. he goes to bed late though, ard 11.30pm or 12am since his last feed is at 11pm. so we try to make sure he has enough naps during the day. these days, he seems to wake up during the night, dunno if it's becoz of the weather. noticed that when he sleeps in his own cot in his own room, he tends to wake up more often. he does not sleep in aircon room. but on weekends when he rooms in with us in a cosy portable bed, he does not wake up till milk time the next morning. we're guessing it cld be the environment - either he likes aircon or the cosy portable bed, heh heh. but he's going to outgrow it soon so we hope it's something to do with the aircon - at least the problem can be solved, though it will burn a hole in our pockets!
HT cereal:
how much is it? i'd like to order but i won't be going for the gathering as i'm not a SAHM. will prob get the mixed grain cereal and maybe some teething biscuits.

Val,
I can, no problem... What are you ordering? You ordering for yourself or your baby? Can I tong pang you to buy cause i too lazy to browse through liao
Cat,
At least you have maid to help carry Bernice out. Most of the time, i drive with Adel alone and at times he will really scream. The last was just 2 hours ago when I was coming back from the supermarket. Adel just screamed and screamed in the car seat... It's really so frustrating and I wonder whether I beat any traffic light or pass the speed limit. It's really quite dangerous !

shint & lingling,
his usual feed is 170ml now but no more 3 hourly. he used to drink 140ml at 9pm and 12am to last till next morning. when he starts to drink 170ml, i try new routine for him which is give 200ml at 10pm only and he still manage to last till next morning. so i stick to this now. after 10pm feed, then i go to sleep liao.

celyn,
yu ze drink so much already? i dunno if i'm underfeeding mine. he's drinking 180ml for 8am (1st feed) and 11pm (last feed). all other feeds are 150ml. but very long never feed 150ml liao coz' i'll latch him on for all feeds except first and last feeds. hmmm...maybe that's why he's so hungry during cereal time!
sigh, sometimes i wonder how bbs can sustain on pure BF. even though experts tell u your body can produce enough, i really doubt so. that's why i always feel stressed when my boy cries sometimes after milk. luckily he seldom does that now that we've started him on solids. else i will totally give up on BF man!

krex78, celyn,
My body so far produced almost enough for Kai. Only on some days when I am sick, not enough rest, too tired or dragged pumping due to other activities ie MJ and it becomes 1 pump lesser for the 24 hours. Then have to rely on FBM.
His drinking schedule (7-8 feeds of 180ml)
6am, 9am, 12pm, 3pm, 6pm, 9pm, 12am
Sometimes he wakes up at nite for another feed like these few days. Prob have to up his last feed, perhaps not enough.
7*180ml = 1260ml or 1440ml per 24 hours
My pump schedule :-
7am, 12pm, 7-9pm, 11-1ampm, 4am(or skip this pump) ..... so each time I have to produce close to 2 feeds(360ml) but most of the time, it's about 300ml. I've been utilising the FBM quite a bit, left quite little now.
So far, he doesn't cry after feeding. He'll be quite happy and active or will fall asleep so I gather that's enough for him.
Perhaps when doing direct latching, they really don't drink enough ... but then again, direct latching is based on demand feeding rite?
For pumping, you can squeeze till the last drop.
If based on celyn's babysitter recommendation, KAI should then be drinking 260ml? I'd faintz liao and KAI will grow even fatter! hehe. Last time they say each 100g drink how much ah? recommendation from PD one.

DROPPING HAIR
*************
Btw, are you mommies still dropping lotsa hair?
Mine started for a few weeks liao .... now it's my turn to start finding a solution.
Celyn,
You said your method works rite? how much it cost you ah?
Last time I remembered reading about some hair tonic that you all order from some BP and it works, thinking of getting that - 100+ i think.
Who has that link to the BP ah?
I guess cos KAI is born later so my "problems", symptoms will show later. Good also, then can get advice from the mommies here.
Like Kai starting on cereal, by the time he starts, u all will be expert liaoz.
)))

Avent Teats
***********
Kai is using Avent teats, he's now still using Teat No 2. I tried to change it to No 3 but last nite he like choking so i think it is too fast for him.
Who's using No 3 oredi? Need to change liao?
My #1 used teat 2 until he was quite big and he's still using teat 3 and 4 now. Most of the time teat 3 for nite feed cos i dun wan to him to drink his milk too fast.
