Jaline, thanks. I'm actually more incline to get a small rice cooker rather than the slow cooker cos it's much faster ( save electricity? hehe! )
On your suggestion of putting the porridge in the food jar, I'm wandering if anyone here has any insight on the type of plastice they use for the food jar? I noticed the food jar use plastic ? Is it ok for baby use?

JP,
Slow cooker definately use more electricity cos u need to keep warm all the time till serve. As for food jar, I brought the Tiger food jar which is a stainless steel jar, not plastic type. That's y can keep the porridge warm for abt 8 hrs. Good esp when u need to bring yr baby out during meals, can always cook in advance n keep warm then serve outside as and when. Dun need to worry abt gg back n feed baby etc.

Hi Mummies
As long as the porridge was kept warm till next feeding time, it's ok to feed BB.
Cold porridge will cos BB "wind" in stomach.

I never blend the porridge.
My mum cooked the porridge till very 'nan'. so no point blend the porridge, so i just leave out the scallop.
Koras:
Hmm... I not sure about the phlegm. But so far she ok, anyway, she not eating chicken everyday.
Most of the time, she is eating fish.
Me thinking to ask my mum to buy frog leg n cooked for her to eat.

I saw mummies have been cooking fish porridge for their babies. So far, I've only tried threadfin fish and baby does not like it. I will put the fish together with the porridge and cook till everything is soft and puree like. My MIL insisted that I should not do it that way, I should not mesh the fish up and let baby eat the fish. I should just give her the porridge, without the fish. I am keen to try other fish, as I feel that it's because baby does not like threadfin. Shouldn't I give baby the fish together with the porridge?
Hi Goldfish,
Yup, u r right, the food jar can keep the porridge warm for abt 8hrs, so far i used for my #1 n now #2, quite good, still warm. For me when i cooked the porridge ard noon time n keep it warm till dinner time ard 6 plus still warm n nice lor.
There are many brands of food jar ard, for the Tiger food jar, it's meant to keep porridge and soup, size is abt 900ml which i think it only have one size. Recently my sil brought the Tiger food jar during Isetan sale for $59, a bundle pack consist of 900 ml Tiger food jar that comes with a metal spoon, a thermal bag to keep the jar and Endo thermal mug, quite a good deal.
Koras,
Wow, so old wife tales are quite accurate at times...
I still remember when i was organising my elder girl 1st bday party, really headache, need to decide on venue, look for nice cake, party deco, goodies bags and catering. Really need to start browsing ard and think of a b-day themes or else very difficult to arrange esp b-day cake, popular brands like PG always have to book early or else very problematic.

wingkei,
U should give yr baby fish together with porridge, cos fish have alot of nutrients like DHA, good for their brain n eyes development. U can oso try giving cod fish as well. Maybe it's the way u cook the porridge or maybe the threadfin fish has fishy smell which ur baby dun like to eat.

Jaline, yeah, I am going to try codfish this weekend. But I just put the fish in together with the rice grains and cook all together til mushy. How else should I cook it? I also think I should give my baby fish with the porridge, just giving her the porridge without the fish seems rather insufficient.

Actually, if baby hasn't started cruising, there is still plenty of time, so don't fret!</font>

Jaline, Mrs Seng, thanks for the advise on the food jar and cooker. Sounds like the stainless steel is better. Will source around.
Any mummies here put there baby in the playyard? Thinking of buying one since he can start crawling so tot it's good idea to put him in the secured area so he can crawl around freely. I saw one at First Few Years and like it very much cos it's surrounded by netting so if he falls and hit the yard, it will not hurt him. Anyone has any comments on the Haenim playyar ( the plastic one right? ) Is that good, I'm concern that baby will fall and hit the yard?
Pei, haha! in the laundry basket? that's cute!

Jaline, I did it both ways, cook the fish with the porridge right from the start and your method. But my MIL kept on telling me this is not nice to eat.
Yeah, my baby already has 2 teeth, a third one popping out. My MIL insisted that the porridge must be very mushy or else baby will not eat it. At first, I did not cook it that mushy, but after the first time, I had to cook it mushier because my MIL complained that my porridge is not mushy enough. It had to be like baby's cereal!

Alston is also cruising around and grabs hold of anything to help him to stand.
BTW, he's rejecting porridge these days...I'm not sure if the porridge has a fishy smell. I'm currently cooking cod, threadfin (ngor fish) and salmon. I dun use ginger, but juz cook fish and carrots or brocolli together in the porridge and blend everything. How do u mummies get rid of the fishy smell ?
Should i offer him cereal only in the meantime and stop cooking porridge ? Sigh...in a dilemma now.

I used aloe vera gel for Ryan bruise,pimple n rashes.
My cousin in law used vick vapour on the bruises, she said very gd effect.
Millie
I cook the porridge w/ other ingredients like vege, lean meat, chicken meat together but will steam the fish w/ a slice of ginger n some wolfberry on it, Ryan loves it n finish everything. HeHe.
He will reject the porridge totally if i cooked the fish together.
Think is because of the fishy smell, bb r smart.

Did she fall? If "No" Just gave ur girl more water to drink n monitor her.
Sometime vomitting is due to "wind" in her stomach n when food is consume the "wind" upset her n cos her to throw out the food she just taken.
If the vomitting continue later in the night, better bring her to c PD.
