<font color="0000ff">Like wat Jelly said, organics food is more expensive but now more pple are informed of tis goodness. In our modern society, GM food is so commonly available thus the explanation for all the upward trend of disease and illnesses. During our grandparents' era one hardly heard of cancer/heart disease/stroke, all tis have been very common in the society of tdy.

ya it is difficult sometimes to find organic food/fruits and hence bb will also hav limited selection...and we all try to get bb to eat as wide a variety as possible....
I heard a sad story - my TCM doc asked y women our generation so many prob...a 20+yr old girl came to her menopause already...i told her stress+ food we eat...we really dun know the chemicals behind the food...

U r right, the variety of organic food/fruits is limited sometime, so i will also get the normal one for Isaac, e.g. banana, strawberries etc, no choice, just make sure not from PRC lo.
Btw mommies,
Wanna to check with u all, those leafy organic vege with "many small holes" on it, is it safe to consume? Sigh...last weekend hubby bought it for Isaac, at the end, we parent finish most of it, coz i only manage to select few leaf w/o holes for him, dun feel comfortable to give him with holes one. Am I too xiao xin in this case?

Oh dear! I hope that suspected person has not into contact with majority of your hb's colleagues
alamak! any irresponsible person!!
Get yr hb to disinfect before coming home.
Dun stressed yrself too much over your boy's weight, dun keep weighing him leh, some babies very pantang one. Most imptly, yr boy is healthy and growing well!!
Vanilla,
Food that we put into our mouth contain lots of harmful substances, combination of food will oso lead to poisonous chemical formed in our body so we can only try to eat a healthier diet and if we can provide our little tots with a healthier headstart why not?

*waving back* Noted with thanks! Will let HB know, and make sure he is 'clean' before carrying his precious tonight!
Ya, you shud try the brown rice again for few times, since it is more nutritious than white one, maybe with some of Elisha's favourite ingredients, am sure he will slowly accept it! Jiayou! Is not easy feeding our lit one, sometiome i really feel like install a zip for him at his stomach! Haha...

actually we also dunno how organic is the organic we get. Read articles and books that comment that they also use pesticides, just the approved ones. Otherwise they would never make it to be exported in one piece. Insects are tough these days. Best is to go for local produce within a certain km radius of your home. But this is ang moh speak lah, Singapore u want to support local farms also no farm to produce all you need. My friend living in NYC only buys produce from farmers market sales in town on weekends whenthe farmers from the nearby countryside drive down to market their truly organic produce.
Basically once it has to survive a flight, I doubt how organic it can be.
Another fact is that to get their products certified organic, they have to pay. So only big farms can afford that. Those smaller home based family farms that produce more naturally are not certified organic cos the procedure is too costly. And the costs are passed on to consumers. So sometimes I can't help but think this whole thing is a farce. Sorry abt the ramble.
And recall someone posted a link that says organic food in jars is probably more preserved and treated/artificial than non-organic food freshly prepared. Hmm.
But ultimately if u pay double for that fresh produce it should have slightly less pesticides lah.

o my! i oso keep weighing my girl lolx sometimes her weight will go down then i will be vert stress! haha my baby is coz she < average and my IL keep saying she small =P
o n my hubby oso was on course with this fella who was on same flight as h1n1. ya i guess no choice must try to wash hands bathe etc tot ry to keep clean b4 contact baby
as for the holes on vege i heard that veges with < pesticdes is like that one. more holes means more pests means less pesticides ba? haha
dimple
i think is not that they dun use pesticides more like they dun use those chemical pesticides and fertilisers, opting for natural ones. is the amount of chemicals that we are worried about. sth like that. and i think is matter of balance ba. like pear i cannot find organic then i just get normal pear. whatever can organic, i get lor. there's no way to totally elminate her exposure to chemicals, but i guess i juz try to minimise when she baby. i think once she 1 year old haha i dun think i can be bothered le.

Shawn is such a good boy! How I wish my gal can open her mouth big big when I feed her solid food then I dont have to force feed liao.
bbgoh
Xiaojie has the habit of holding her magmag cup to drink and then fall asleep. I guess that's the reason why she is able to hold her bottle during her dreamfeed. As compared to wenxuan, she is more independent while the boy has been over-protected by us since he is our first born. Now have to train xiaojie in order to train wenxuan liao. </font>

hi cheerbear
Any of mommies here tried TCM to stop BM production? Am thinking to wean my son coz going to start my full time job next month. Dun think is good for him to continue drinking my BM as i need to deal with many chemicals/solvents. Besides, my body also start to pretest by giving me backache, feel very tired everyday. And i keep loosing weight, now no more slim, is skinny le! Many ppl commented me look very qiao chui, with my currect weight of 46kg+. Went to check with medical hall yesterday, the lady told me need to take TCM for 5 days, anyone tried b4?
