lilian, thanks for the info. think now i will either freeze cooked veg or if not i put in ziplop can oso right?
milderina, not thinking of puree, but just cook (just steam i guess) the veg bits or even big chunks then chop later when need, and i tot i can just freeze raw veg like that, but obviously i'm wrong

U guys talking abt porridge ah.. i cook so many times all not correct leh.. first time added too little water, 2nd and 3rd time too much water! cooking porridge got art one! kekeke.. i use slow cooker, Takahi 0.7L. Can cook 2-3 meals at the current amt Z is eating.
So far so gd! Z not reacting to brown rice.
Haru, i recommend u to get short grain brown rice. really softer and erm, fluffier!
Jes, i nv hear ppl freeze vegs before!! the cells structure of plants don't take well to freezing cos they have higher water content. hence when u freeze, they wilt (cos freezer dehydrates food). As for fruits, have u cooked it? I tot no raw stuff until bbs turn 1 YO? the only think i know can give raw is avocado. Me haven't really tried fruits out so i might be wrong.
Lentil is a gd protein source. it is the stuff in DAO SUAN!
alternatively u can try millet! that was my next choice if Z reacted to rice. heh.
Peanut, may be ur Nini is like that lor. no choice, u have to tahan. I know one fren whose bb is 1.5yrs old still wakes up every other hour on a bad night. a good night is when she wakes up twice or less.

Maggie,
Thanks for offering your place and treats yesterday!
Alibaba, Jo, bear, Maggie,
what happen to baby23's girl??
bear,
where u get those short grain brown rice?
Lilian,
u can purchase lentils from NTUC organic counter,cold storage, market place.. most of the supermarket carry lentils. I bought the red lentils instead of brown cos it cook in a shorter time and also has higher protein n iron.

hi Bear,
ya. even my parents are desperate now and wanna go get the EYS brown rice powder. but i reckon its better to get brown rice so that i can slowly grind it lesser for more texture when (and if!) she gets used to the porridge. oh, wanted to ask if i can grind more than one batch for the brown rice? or can i only grind it just before each time i cook? if not i need to get a blender to put at home coz the U-like blender at my mum's home. can use that to grind the rice?
joyce,
i think Bear got it from Brown Rice paradise at Tanglin Mall. I will go to Four Seasons Organic supermarket to see if they have it there too. coz i normally get bb food there.
wow, i have not thought so far as lentils! have not even tried brown rice porridge, hahah...

Bear, see if it helps u to gauge your water level for the porridge. For 1 full tablespoon of rice (using those procelain soup spoon), I put slightly less than half of the 0.7L pot, with hot water added right from beginning, 2 hrs cooking, final pdt: gluey porridge.
Hi Mommies,
Yeah!! I'm finally homw liaoz. Been out the wholse day cos today my 2 older gals no school - closed in lieu of Youth Day. So hub took leave and we all went out kai-kai. hehehehe...

Night shift mommy reporting strength!
I cant wait for the party -- it will be a gd time for day and night shift mommies to meet! hahaha
blustar: totally know how u feel. Kaitlyn just rolled off my bed last week. Felt so guilty. But i guess bbs are studier than we think.. so if your bb has no signs of concusion/internal bleeding then you'd be fine (even though I know and you know that we will still be wrecked with guilt!haha) If it helps, my mom admitted to me I fell from a high chair before when I was less than 1 year old. Other than a super lousy memory I think i turned out ok lah.
Jo: I went to a lunch at vivo but dont think it was hogs breath leh..i think it was white dog ah? I was the one with the pink bugaboo bee. btw, sad to say, I also never cook porridge for bb before.. my helper does it instead. I only make purees during weekend!!
Adens mommy: Thanks!! Wah very comprehensive.. I think i go office and print out tomorrow and memorise the tips!! hehee...
Haru & dymples: I wanna get the 6 panel cos I thought give her more freedom to roam around mah.. but now I headache, dunno where to put it! hahaha.. I think i must buy a new house leow! NO SPACE!
Snowwy: Hats off. I wonder if I can ever be the mommy and wife that you are -- it takes a lot of patience. during my 1 month confinement and remaining maternity leave, i nearly went crazy with being cooped up at home and glued to the baby. This was when I realised I am not cut out to be a SAHM. Even worse, i think i wont even bother warming up rice for my hubs if he comes home! haha.. Well hope your hubs appreciate that and dont tell my hubs u do so many things when u meet him hor.. spoil market!! hahahaha

<font color="ff0066"> Snowwy</font>
Wah seh... I really admire you leh. Can really handle 2 gals + housework. I here no maid only coming to 2 months and already running out of steam leh. Morning earliest I can wake is 8am wor. You can wake up at 6am. Somemore can cook dinner! Me *shy-shy* here siah. Although I got 3-gals + housework to jagar, I got a cleaner lady to come in 1x a week to do the ironing + General cleaning. Then for dinner, it's either my dad cook or we ta-bao home. Wah seh!! I super *pei-fu.. Salute* you man! Tink if I'm in your shoes would faintz a long time back lohz.
<font color="ff0066"> Pam</font>
Dun feel bad lah. Me also not cut out to be SAHM leh. I is boh pianz to be SAHM leh. No caregiver for Bb, so end up gotta resign. Then of all stupid lucks, I kena those extreme toopid, pattern maids. End up... my hub dun want maids anymore. Now I gotta slowly change his mind again. *hiaks-hiaks*
