U are so farni, wanna throw WX into a bin kekeke
Kylie,
Try honey with lemon, it helps
Cheerbear,
Honey shd be prepared in slightly warm water, too hot will kill off the properties of it. Then always use a wooden/plastic spoon to scope up the honey from its bottle. Dun use a metal one.

<font color="aa00aa">Realised a few of my hubby's cousins are expecting an ox bb! When my sil told my fil about this on the other day, his reply was 2 kids is just nice! Better dont have a 3rd one! He was looking at me while he made this remark! Inside my heart I was thinking even if we are going to have another kid, it's between me and hubby! I dont need to get his consent! Furthermore, he is not helping us to look after the kids and why talk so much! I should have asked him why in that case, they want to have my hubby cos he is the 3rd child in the family!
He is so funny cos most parents would want their children to have as many kids as possible but my fil is telling us to stop at 2.</font>

This boy is really driving me crazy liao! I think he wants more attention so nowadays he is doing all sorts of funny things and nonsenses to irritate me! Then when I scolded him he would quickly run to me and cry in my arms! What should I do with him?</font>

hi mommies
So many posts this morn! Oei mommies - no nd to work ah?! keke. Kidding
mousebb - so cute yr boy. Maybe gd time to get him to help spring clean since he is in the throwing-away mood
?! My gf taught her 2yo toddler how to do his laundry ie. drag his laundy basket to washing machine, load his clothes into the machine, and even add soap and switch on the machine.. so now he is a great help to her. VV cute. Am thinking of getting Vic do just that next time ..so toying w buying the Lil Tikes Shopping cart .hhaha
Porridge - It's exciting times for us moms now that our bb are taking porridge. Those still at cereal dun stress cos once they want porridge, we all become v bo eng .kekke. Vic now yells for real porridge for lunch n dinner n refuses her milk! Last nite, she whacked 1 whole rice bowl of porridge i addition to milk.
I just went to grab 1 pack of Organic baby cheddar cheese for her to snack on .. so ex!!

Hi Mummies,
I'm new to this forum! My little girl is also 8 months old and getting more difficult to feed! Was quite worried initially until I read that she's not the only one. Hopefully it's a phase they go through.
My girl started taking porridge since she was 7 months old. She refuses to eat rice cereal but she'll happily open her mouth for porridge. *faint*
What I do is I grind the rice til it's very fine before hand and store it. Every night, I scoop about 3 scoops (i recycle those scoops in the milk tin) and soak with water. Next morning just put it in the slow cooker, top up abit more water, put in cod fish with chopped veg (broccoli or carrots or pumpkin etc) and let it cook til around 1130am when she has her lunch. (Learnt it from my confinement lady. hehe. The trick to making the porridge soft and goo-ey is to soak the rice overnight). Sometimes I use mince pork and dried scallop instead of fish. The trick with the mince pork is to get the butcher to mince it twice for you. =)
Oh and I found that gripe water helped my little girl to poo. But I try not to feed her that everyday coz I'm not sure if it's ok.
Val,
I read in books that we shouldn't introducing seasoning like salt, sugar, light sauce etc until baby turns 2...

Nowadays I'm getting him involved in taking care of meimei. When I change her diaper, I would tell the boy to throw away the dirty one for me. When I change her clothes, he would help me throw the dirty ones into the laundry basket and after I fed meimei, he would help me bring the milk bottle to put on the table. I can tell that he is enjoying doing these things for me cos he would show me his smiley face.</font>

actually if u think about it, i think he knows u hv 2 look after WM and he is happy participating in the chores with you. maybe to keep him "busy", u could get him to runmore "errands" for u! mayb keep WM occupied while u do other stuff... but of course, safely lah...
i know how u feel too when i lash out at rebby at times, but the kids dunno anything de... so we just have to learn to refrain
parenting is about knowing you and your kid as well

mousebb - wx is so sweet! I think the trick is to get him involved as much as possible so he feels he is still loved and wanted by mommy. You are doing great!!!
Jelly - I got them from Carrefour, PS. The brand is Organic Valley from USA. 6 cheddar cheese sticks for $13.95. You can go grab them tmr at PS. I think I will chop into smaller pieces for her snacking. Yoghurt - I bot Baby Yogplait. I don't think it's organic though. And nope .. I resisted going into MwL for the very 1st time. Hee.

Hi bbgoh,
I don't buy the pre-grinded mince pork. I specify the part I want to the butcher, get him to cut out all the fat, then grind for me. =) But I find my girl prefers fish to pork, so I use fish most of the time. Anyway her PD says it's better to give fish coz it's rich in DHA and babies need it now for brain development. I use cod mostly but thinking of introducing salmon soon.

mousebb,
see.. he is so sweet, runs to hug u.. think he jus wan attention la.. coz he sees u follow meimei ard and not him mah..
minced meat - never buy mince meat from butcher coz they will mix all the parts and some parts r not gd. buy the lean meat and grind urself if u can, if not then bo bian lor ask butcher to help.
