Goldfish, I tried feeding my Jaden with the Wan Wan before actually. Only 2 small bite size, more for him to try the taste cos he was looking at me longingly when I was eating it! Once in while, I will let him try my food but always only 2-3 small bite size to try the taste.
Mummies, I see that there are mummies out there that started feeding their baby yoghurt? U feed them straight from the fridge or let it warm abit before feeding baby? Is there a difference between the baby yoghurt and the normal yoghurt?
Hehe! Just to share a photo of my Jaden......I just bought him the Pigeon mag cup and he has learnt to suck from the straw!

Anymore mummies want to join the Walking Wings Moonwalker spree? Short of 2 mummies now. Please pm me if interested.

I didnt use the walker for Jaden. A nurse in one of the seminar that i attend told me that they do not encourage walker as it may be dangerous and that it does not really teach the baby to walk cos it's not using the same muscle when in walker and when baby is actually walking.
I put Jaden in a playyard, got him a really big one so he has room to move about and play with his toys. He cant stay inside by himself for long though unless someone is in the playyard with him too.

Mrs_Seng, tik its not recommended to give baby yakult until they are at least 2yrs old. I remember hearing this from one of my colleague, something about the active bacteria in yakult which baby's stomach cannot process that well..... I need to check with her again...
Yeah, I think the Mag mug is better than the Avent spout. Jaden seems to like drinking from the Pigeon one than the Avent one.

hi mummies
would like to check about milk teats.
My gal now drinks much faster from the bottle. The hole in the teat seems too small for her to suck. She got irritated and my MIL cut the hole in the teat bigger so that the flow is faster. However I heard its not good to do so due to plastic leach.
So my question is, is there any brand of standard size teat that is larger than L
So far i used pigeon brand and the largest i can find is L size
thanks alot

Goldfish,
I'm still bathing Alston in his bath tub and ya he's very active inside it, standing up here and there to touch things, floor,etc. I often need to "wrestle"wif him and hold him tightly in case he falls.
As for household chores, i mop the floor even though he's awake and i usually put him in his play yard when i mop. Like u, i don vaccum b4 mop and i use the Scotch Brite type of mop head- the flat "Ban mian" kind.
Baby Yoplait
I usually buy from cold storage.

Hi, Mummies.
Need ur advice here. Saw in the posts here that some of you are putting the lil' ones in the playpen. Hw are the bbs faring? Coz my gal is still not able to sit properly on her own n always falls backwards n simply rolls over. She is always trying to climb out of the Bright Stars seat now. So we have no choice but to put her in a walker.

Hello Mummies,
I checked with my colleague and this is what she say about the Yakult :
1) The sugar content is very high ( apparently even higher than soft drink? )
2) Yakult is formulated for the adult digestive system so may not be appropriate for baby or even toddler. She is not even giving to her kids who are already 8yrs old. She think its better to wait for them to be at least 10yrs old.
This is base on what she say, how true, I also dont know, just to share with you all.

a note here. yakult contains probiotics (the l casei shirota name is just some fancy nancy name for it lah), it's the same as lacteolfort. this is in a satchet form that doc/PDs give your toddlers when they fall sick sometimes.one satchet is more potent than one bottle of yakult. also sometimes later, you will wanna give your kiddoes vitamins. one of the popular ones is probiotics, super ex but same as lacteolfort actually...
if give, dun need to give yakult or all those expensive probiotics powder. just get those satchets from docs. super cheap (i think...)

Hi Goldfish,
Your baby sure looks like he's enjoying his bath time. My maid is the one who bath him during the day and she use the bath tub, I suspect it isnt easy too cos he wants to touch everything! In the evening, me and hubby will give him a quick bath, hubby will hold him by the armpit and I will soap him, so he kinda shower while standing. It's getting tough cos he will be doing his little dance all the time so abit difficult to hold and shower him.
BTW, the Pigeon mug is quite cheap, about $8 from kiddy palace. I got it during sale with 20% discount. I tik the straw kind is easier for baby to handle themselves cos they dont need to tilt the bottle to drink (the spout kind can be a big challenge esp if not enough water and they got to tilt really high ), they just need to learn to suck. The Pigeon one has straw that extends and bends at the end so even there is very little water in the bottle, they can still drink.
DVD & mealtime : I let him watch Teletubbies/Baby Einstein after his lunch. I dont let him watch during mealtime cos I dont wan him to associate eating with watching TV. I restrict him to watch only about once or twice a day as to whether he is addicted anot, I dont tik so bah, dont tik baby at tis age can get addicted right? haha! For me, mealtime is strictly mealtime so i dont give him any toy to distract him. I will set him up in his high chair so he knows that it's his meal time everytime he sits on the high chair. When he is done, I will remove him from the high chair immediately. So far, it seems to work and he finish up his meal all the time within about 15mins.

Goldfish, that's a cute picture! Yes, it's a tough time to bathe them now.. Always trying to stand up in the bath tub and pull this and that! I tried putting him into my own bath tub once, I had a hell of time! TOUGH!!!
Mag mag with straw - I tried yesterday, but bb dont know how to suck from it. Only knows how to bite. How to teach ah??
Mamyvelle, yes, I completed the 2nd album. Initially wanted to do "MY FIRST YEAR" album, then realised got too many photos to include, so in the end, I did "MY FIRST ALBUM" & "MY 2nd ALBUM"...
Mummies, anyone uses electric slow cooker to cook bb's porridge??

hi rachel lim,
I use the slow cooker to cook baby's porridge.
First, I use a separate small claypot to boil water, porkribs, rice, ikan bilis stock (prepared beforehand), vegetable. After boiling for 20mins, den I put into the slow cooker to simmer for 2 hours.

Skinny pig - same here, my boy don't know how to drink from mag mag also, whether it's spout or straw!
orangeymum (orangeymum) - if you cook all the ingredients first, will it not lose all the nutrients? Hmm..
Tinkerbell, my boy hasnt slept through yet.. but I'm not too concern about this. As long as he doesnt wake me up every 2 hours, I'm fine.
At this age, you will need to impose some sort "sleep training" if you want him to sleep through the night. (usually will not be related to hunger anymore if your baby is still not sleeping through) One method will be the CIO (Cry it out) method. You can try to read more about it on the web, or from books.

Hi Rachel,
ya. thats what i thought so too. in fact, my pd oso mentioned that they are actually seeking attention.
so, this leads me to experiment on him 2 days ago.. haha.. normally, he will start to fidget at around 2am. but i just let him suck his paci and ignore him. then at around 3 to 4am, he starts to make noise (din cry) and open his eyes. so, i quickly make his milk, gave it to him and he went back to sleep.
I'm actually, wondering is he really hungry or he is seeking for attention...

Tinkerbell,
5)He would normally wake up @ 7ish am.
6)Depends. Sometime he would wake up on his own, sometime I would need to wake him up cos need to bring him to bbsitter
7)Yes, I fed him milk after he woke up cos he would definitely be hungry by then.
8)About 500ml in the day and 180ml for last feed
9)He has been sleeping thru since he was 3 mths old
When he was 5 mths old, he would wake up once or twice fidgeting in the night, due to discomfort from teething. I used to pop the pacifier into his mouth and he would fall asleep shortly.
Now that I have weaned him off from the pacifier, I would either rock him back to sleep, pat his buttocks or bring him to my bed and let him fall asleep on his own.
Rachel,
Yours also ah? Don't use sippy cup or straw?
I really want to rest my case lor... Everytime bring the cup in front of them, he would just push away or bite on the spout.

Tinkerbell,
I trained him to sleep thru after his 1st month. But it was a difficult process and it took me 2 mths to train him sleep thru.
During the process, the training backfire a lot of times and he ended up sleeping at 3ish am almost everyday. And I suffered with him as well... whahahaaa..

Sleep training - I've read 2 books on this before, though I've never tried them on my bb. You will need to slowly wean them off their night feed first (slowly cut back on the amount that they are taking). So eg, if your 2am feed is 180ml, try to make only 150ml, 120ml, 60ml... then you can start giving water if your bb still wakes up. Eventually, they will try to drink more milk / eat more solids during the day, so that they will not be hungry in the middle of the night.
However, do note that at this age, you need to put your bb through CIO or "cold turkey" (meaning leave them in the room and never come back) once you are sure that their wakings are not due to hunger.
There's a lot to talk about this.. and honestly, i dont have any real experience on this (only read 2 books so far). So mummies will need to do more search on this... It's usually easier to train the babies when they are much much younger.
Skinnypig.. yeah!! So now I'm just trying to make him drink water from a cup, and will progress that to drink milk from the cup...

Rachel,
Doesn't he make a mess drinking from cup?
and what cup do you use?
Normal adult mug or baby mug that you buy from stores?

I read from a website that we can also train our bb to eat together with us. I am going to try that tonite cos bringing bb outside for dinner and going to bring out his porridge as well. Keke.. at least if he made a mess of himself, it is ok cos’ it is not my house. LOL
Rachel, erm.. I wonder whether issit time for us to bathe bb not on bath-tub, but just place them on the toilet floor.. as in seat down on toilet floor. Ermm..
I am using endo thermalpot to make porridge for bb. I cook the porridge at 7am and den put it in thermal pot all the way till I am back from work which is ard 7pm!! SO it is like 12hrs in the pot. Opps.. I told my auntie colleague and she was tsk tsk me say GOT WIND leh liddat. Bt oh well.. I bo time to cook porridge when I reach home leh… it is race against time when my feet touch home manz… :S
Tinkerbell, same as u.. I oso dunno bb issit eyeing for attention ornot lo. Bt I still feed him when he fidget cos if I let him be, I cannot sleep well. At least feed him liao and he happy and close his eyes, I can go back to sleep! keke

Thanks breadmum for the list! Wendymum, u joining?
Sleep training
My method is to ignore him as long bb has his last feed at 9pm or 12mn. If baby wakes up, do not go to him or make any movement and after a while, bb will get the hint that mummy & daddy are sleeping. After a while, he will go back to sleep on his own. I usually leave a bottle of plain water by his side in case he is thirsty.

goldfish- by the time you reach home does the porrige turn cold. If not i dont think will cause wind i guess. I cook my porrige from 8+ in the morning till around 5+. But the flask i use need to change the hot warm t the bottom to keep it warm. Very troublesome was hoping that i coudl find a flask that could keep the porrige for long
cordelia, are you asking for me? i'm twendy, not wendymum. i cannot confirm attendance. tampines is very far, doubt my hubby has the energy & patience to drive all the way there. plus we have to rush off at 3-plus for a class. can i sms u nearer the date? will try to psycho him a bit...
