<font color="ff0000">Limitations:</font>
Not enough room for parking strollers and although everyone can swim downstairs, i might not have enough room for 20+ odd moms, not enough chairs although you are welcome to sit on the floor (like what i do) and the guest parking spaces downstairs are pathetic. I have a furry old man who is terrified of children so he will be hiding in the room in case anyone is afraid of dogs (judging by most of us who are pet owners here, prob not) Anyway i'm just tinkering with a few dates.

<font color="ff0000">looking at Saturday 27th june, 4th july, 11th july.</font>

 

[xxinyingxx]

Talking abt EY...
Long time never see her online. How is she??

EY, where are u?

 

[vanilla_pod_2]

hi eelyn - think most bb start crawling by doing it backwards....

me still waiting for my son to crawl properly. he will crawl to turn himself to watch TV (so it is like sideway crawl) but going forward - 1X only i saw 2 steps.

If i put toy infront of him, he will just stretch his hands trying to touch it...but cannot reach will eh eh in frustration!

 

[elchwong]

Gioanna,
I don't believe too...haha...but their tales are sometimes amusing!

XY,
My boy also shrinking because he's also drinking very little...even less so than Marcus! At 5mths, he's 8.5kg and last week at 6mths, he's only 9kg, he only gained 500g for that 1mth+...his burger cheeks are diminishing and no more beer belly...

 

[xxinyingxx]

Elch,
Marcus also. Now is 9kg+ still. Like never put on since 6months. No more burger cheeks and lotus arms and tighs already. See le heartpain.

I also keep telling my gal "Pls dont be too big size". Me and my hubby are not tall in height and most probably our kids will not be too tall also. I'm worry she would look like a ball! Haha!

busy bee
Yup. Her milk intake has increased le. Most of the days are around 700ml++. She looks FAT now. She is 7.1kg now!!! I guess is the cereals that helps to boost her weight bah. There was one day when I dressed her in a white singlet and my hubby came home from work asked me "how come gal gal looks so fat today". I told him "my milk"!!! Haha! Like real hor! </font>

 

[matsu]

[elchwong]

mousebb,
Ok, no worries! I'll do a google...

 

[tracee]

jjmom,

[dimpletot]

Busy bee, mousebb

I follow pd's advice to top up with latching after solid feed... Am still not sure how much constitutes a full solid feed, thus completely replacing milk feed. Before her first bout of constipation I was taking 8 tbs (mix of veg, cereal and fruit) as a full feed thus no latching to top up. Now I feed 5 tbs and top up with latch.

Anyway, books say until they are 1 yr, most nutrition should come from milk so will continue with at least 4 milk feeds, even if she takes two solid full feeds. Dunno whether she has reduced milk intake cos lazy to pump just latch. She stops when full lor.

Lili

Better not to alt cereals daily. Books and doc say best to feed one type for a few days so if got allergic reaction u can isolate the cause.

Ok ok, I won't say it loud.

XY,

How is his solid intake? Maybe he doesn't like the taste of the milk?? U still breastfeeding right? My first daughter was like Marcus, then i tried switching formula, end up she doesn't like Nan, prefer Similac.

Mousebb,

Elch,

Hehe I used my fingerto touch her gums everyday, still smooth leh, no roughness at all. Sighs.

Gioanna,

Marcus is loving his solids. So far once a day, sometimes twice. Depends how sticky he is and if my MIL can manage him while i'm at work.

Still breastfeeding. He likes his milk still. But max intake is 120ml.
