Thanks for info. I have finally decided to only get the float from Kian. ALso don't know why I'm so siao about the baby pool when I have a bathtub, a spa bath and a swimming pool at home. I guess I see so many of you buying and I feel like having one too...heehee. Now manage to convince myself to let baby swim in spa pool first then to the swimming pool when she's older.

I know my boy also prefer me to his daddy cos he only wants me to put him to bed every night and doesnt allow his daddy to kiss him. Many of my frens also told me usually most kids would call daddy 1st and that doesnt mean that they dont like the mummy. But hor, I still feel disappointed lor esp when my hubby is trying to 'show off' to me that our son 'prefer' him to me. Hahaha! Silly me! </font>

Cos the pool is not heated and it might not be warm enough for baby to swim in especially approaching winter.

hellow.. wah i cannot keep up with the posts ler..
dimpletot, Izzy also swings her arm upwards and smacks herself on the forehead sometimes. She doesnt seem to feel pain one.. Only I feel pain for her.. hahaa..
elchwong, i am wearing nursing bras out and think soon to work. Cannot stand underwired bra; breasts quite tender and very uncomfortable when engorged. erm.. cant help with the "diluted" EBM qn. i got nursing bras from MEV, i liked them alot, think can wear even after nursing with bra cups inserted, just that it has no padding.

Izzy is very cranky these days and i find drinking very little. She latches for 5mins max only! She will fuss and not want to sleep then when I try to latch her, she will suck until letdown is abt to start (1 or 2 min) then she will unlatch and refuse the nipple even when the milk is dripping and cries & cries. I'm getting confused. This can happen every 1.5 to 2 hr!

karen,
Sorry but did you chk if her diaper is wet or dirty? My son sometimes also does that and usually it is because he is dirty.
If your baby is on TBM, and the poo only has water without pallet with foul smell then that is lao sai. If baby dun poo poo frequently I think no need to go see doc just watch what you eat. When I have watermelon my baby lao sai.
The other day I have black pepper sausage his poo poo also smell like black pepper sausage. So it is important what we eat.
Try RidWind, you can buy them in normal drug store the packaging is blue.
everafter,
Yeah, discuss with your hubby and mum. Maybe for one or two day a week, you and your hubby can sleep over at your mum's place. Or maybe bring him back every other day instead of daily. I also agree with mousebb, your mum can bathe the baby for you. No need to bath so early in the morning plus baby are normally very clean unlike toddler.
everafter,
I also second what cheezel say about the importance of who the baby sleep with.
Mousebb,
Dun be sad lah. My elder one only learn how to call my "Mummy" after "Daddy", "Ah Ma", "Ah Peh", "Gu Gu".
Whitepaper,
Wow CH drinks 1700ml a day and you have enuf BM for him. How did you keep your milk supply so good?
elch,
I also dun wear underwired one coz' they say will clog duct.
bbgoh,
If you open the bra then it start to leak then I think it is really blocking your milk duct. I think it is better to stop wearing those underwired bra.
Milky BM,
My BM used to looks very diluted but after taking fish oil not as diluted anymore. But it is still more diluted compare to when I BF my elder one. I am also not quite sure why.

How's your 1st day back in office?
Jenny
Hehe...my son knows how to call ma1 ma1 liao but he calls dad dad more often. On the other day, he actually called out 'mei mei'!
lili
Last time when my son was at the infant care centre, the teacher there advised us to pack at least 3 sets of extra clothes for the bb. The centre has allocated 1 locker for my son and so besides the extra sets of clothes, I also put in extra towel, socks & bibs just in case on some days we forget to bring his stuffs. </font>

Yah, the diapers were just changed. But still, hmm, don't know if it's tummy upset or not. Anyway, I'll make slow changes and monitor the next few days. Thanks!
Mummies who latch on
Do you all empty your breasts, even though baby doesn't finish sucking? I don't ah. Will my supply be reduced?
Diluted BM
Ok, I'm so going to start eating fish now. And next Tuesday, I'm going to gorge on Salmon at Sakae. I was so stupid to even throw away the supplement from pregnancy days. Sigh. I am not taking any supplement now. According to the nurse at my gynae, it's to nourish myself. No wonder I actually felt dizzy once or twice these few days.

I think this has been discussed but I wasnt paying attention.. ;p Did any of you give your baby gripe water already? Not sure if Izzy is having colic..

I feel like working towards dropping the last feed which is currently at 11pm. Read book that says can gradually shift time of last feed earlier and earlier. Any one trying this or did this Gor yr older kids?

Dimpletot,
I deliver in Aust. Its definitely very different delivering here than in Sg. Sg more pro.
Xinying,
Glad that you bring up this topic on sling/pouch again. Was worried that I keep asking questions. Now that I'm going back Sg for holiday soon, I find that there's so much things I want to get haha... I also need recommendations for a nice sling/pouch. Am very petite so wonder which one is more suitable for me.
