lynn, that's an achievement for B on toilet training. so dun always said he's slow in his development. he must be 1 of the fastest kids here to be toilet trained.

olwen/moomummy, i oso din know library got this kind of kids' programme. will definitely go and check it out one of these days. if not wrong, cheng san library is inside Hougang Mall. Right, Olwen?

Darlest, i usually let my gal sleeps on the kid's pillow but she oftenly will slip down from it when she's sound aslp, but it din bother me too much cos the elders always said kids' neck are very flexible so they won't hurt their necks even if they dun slp on pillows. dun know how true
happy.gif


Mildy, i oso can't seem to log in to check the immunisation. mayb the link to SingPass got prob? will try later lor.
 
morning mummies,
my girl woke up at 6am tis morn and refused to sleep again. gosh, wonder whats with the super early waking up! just hope she is getting enough sleep and rest.

Oh dear, me one blur mummy. I don't know much about the MMR jab at all. Shall ask PD when I next see him. =P

my girl LOVES eggs! she has been having at least one egg a day and now she really prefers the egg white to egg yolk. so i normally mix egg yoke to her porridge, etc. And cut up the egg white for her to eat on her own. she can have egg whites for lunch n dinner!

milderina,
me too!! i used my singpass but didnt work...=(
 
but i know he's teething now... there're two teeth erupting... resulting two bottom sides are swollen now... these days i will try to apply dentinox before he slp..
 
wtan, I always place him on his back to sleep with a breansprout pillow on his tummy, just that night my MIL was the one who fed him so she placed him differently. BTW, no la... only that night he flipped himself then he slept thru the night, usually is 4-5hrs feed once in the middle of the night... my #1 slept thru the night when she was 3wks old, well well~ all babies are different... hopefully he wil sleep thru soon, at least before i start work =P

Alibaba, maybe coz my gal goes infantcare during the day so already "gai gai" liao... morning she will go her cupboard look for her shoes den bring to us to wear for her then went back home she will sit down n try to get her shoes out.. den place them back to the cupboard.. lol~ very funny de..

Lynn, ur boy is fast! good~ dunno when i should start training my gal.. Hmmz.. hardly have time to really teach or train her stuffs these days..
 
ali
hmm.. on and off lor.. worse at night.. more like evening sickness to me.. now week 11 le... still on unpaid leave rot at home.. today better no merlion so far *finger crossed*

btw, just to share.. iluvbli55 delivered her #2 boy last night! congrats young and pretty mummy, have a good rest
happy.gif

mildy
last time I also very itchy and jealous on other's #2, now preggy liao and I'm miserable... super imbalanced..
maybe I just want a #2 w/o the process of pregnancy and bfg...


MMR
me too haven't brought my boy for the jab yet.. scared got fever then mummy too sick to take care of him at home.. maybe in my 2nd trimester then bring him for the jab...

mummy feeling so guilty leh, cos not feeling well most of the times esp at nights.. cant cook cant play cant read books.. ignoring BBQ most of the time and my husband took care of him mostly..
 
oh congrats iluvbli55!

thanks kiki & mildy

kiki
ya for me, actually evening time feel most nausea for 1st trimester. hope ur MS got better soon
 
kiki,
wakakak... if i were to have another one will b #3. i really dun think i can handle it now. i remembered once i was telling someone that i like to have babies but once preggy then next stage is delivery can? cos i am so scare of the 9 months as i always had gestational diabetes and its a torture not being able to eat things u like when u are pregnant and have super appetite.

and hor i really understand on not being able to accompany #1 when u have #2. but anyhow we are all trying our best aint we? so dun have to feel guilty though i know its really hard as i do feel the same way as u know. all mothers are the same.
 
thanks ali and mildy too

so ali will have 2 DILs and be an evil MIL next time :p

I WANT A GAL I WANT A GAL I WANT A GAL I WANT A GAL I WANT A GAL I WANT A GAL I WANT A GAL

kiki
fif mentioned pregnant mummy shld avoid bringing tod for MMR jab.. expose to this rubella virus, if mummy infected will affect unborn baby..

dont feel guilty, u are really unwell mah... u can ni bu later when u're better.. but i doubt u can catch up his pace.. now my boy is walking all over... i sometimes too tired but jus sit down & see him.. lolz

ali

Kiki,
I hope the method works for you. Must update us yah. heheheh... TOo bad me no more chance to try it out. Cos with 3 princess I cannot tahan liaoz. Finacially, emotionally, physically... I'm wiped out! hahahahaha...
 
wow kiki, good to hear u r feeling better. hope for the best for u - gal, hehe

maid
general advice is NOT to take transfer maids cos those are usually rejected by previous employers tat's why they are sitting at the agency waiting to be transferred.
 
kiki!!
Glad to see you again!
happy.gif


Hope your ms will be over real soon. Hang on there and rest well yah?

re:maids
yes, i agree with jes on not taking transfer maids. fresh maids are generally more obedient and hardworking. but you'll really have to list down the house rules which you want your maid to follow since the day 1 she's with you. coz if you try to intro the rules later, it might be too late liao.
But then again, some transfer maids can be okay too. where maybe she's not suitable for her previous employers, but may be suitable for you. Just remember to have a good face-to-face interview with her to rate her.

Jes
wake up! dun sleep!! hehe..
 
Congrats iluvbli55

lynn

Kiki

happy.gif

happy.gif

Any mummy gg also?
 
Iluvbli55,
Congrats on ur 2nd boy. Rest well.

Peanut,Alibaba,
Yep, i brought R to see EYS TCM when she was 6 months old and 9 months old when she had cough on both occasions. After taking the med, it helped R to cough out her phlegm and she recovered quite fast. But now that she is a toddler, making her drink the med is very difficult. In my opinion, i prefer R seeing EYS TCM over western doc. However for fever when i needed immediate relief n fast results, bobian got to bring her see ang mo doc. Seeing R took westen med for fever for 2 weeks made me so heart pain. Hated seeing them take so much med at such a tender age. Hope Ni ni get well soon.

Lynn,
I intro the whole egg to R after she's slightly over 13 months. I cooked her scrambled egg, steamed egg, hard boiled egg and fried egg.

Wtan,
I may be bringing her for MMR end this month, PD did told me no scientific proof of MMR causing Autism and said exposing her to more diseases n viruses as a result of no MMR vaccination is worse. I think will pass MMRV though.
 
darlest: what push cart? i give the push walker.. not very good cause like got a gap to walk and the wheel like very fast.

moomummy: ok i try.. hope it works.. today he very cute.. stand up without holding and dance.. bounce and bounce.

mildy: not bad ur gal can say ng ng if want to poo.. my brandon only know urine, the poo still not yet.. i put him in the potty he refused.. he only want me to carry over the toilet seat then he can poo.. maybe i should get the toilet seat for the children.and wow.. she clever in talking. Good job! old pp say if got 2 children, the youngest speak and do thing faster as got sibling to play with..

jes: thanks
happy.gif
yeah seems he the fastest for toilet training.. i toilet train him because his severe diaper rash.. and his big backside.. XL for his pull up is a bit tight that why cause no circulation and cause bad diaper rash. so doc suggest me go diaper free for noon. and now cause i just go my new job n be starting on april 5th so i use the time to train him urine.. and he seems easy.. thanks god! slowly, all bbs here will urine.. i feel if he refuse, slowly.. but walking and talking.. i reali hope he can fast a bit. haiz.. even every night i tell story. hope my efforts will paid off.

Kiki: hahaha.. u so funny. yeah agreed.. healthy more impt.. but then hor.. i also same thing.. I ALSO WAN A GAL!!
happy.gif
 
babyzel: i try the egg yolk so far.. haven reali try the egg white.. but i did give him cakes. so far no allergic.. but what do u mean allergic? as in rashes? does diahorrea counts?

MMR/MMRV: what the difference?
 
KIKI: avoid transfer maids, i had before and she ended up stealing things including my eyebrow tweezer ! Her fave was money of cos...agency also not honest in telling me why she was a transfer bluff me say maid used fone and employer scold.

MMR = no chicken pox jab
MMRV = inclusive of chicken pox jab so less 1 jab..

I planning for MMRV later on for my gal maybe closer to 2 yrs old.

Girl/boy..anything i can pregnant is a blssing liao girl or boy I am also very happy........:p

If gal also gd I hav a few hundred pices of pretty gal clothes to pamper her with! Haha..
 
hi Olwen Lim, oh is it? i tot my baby gal is the youngest liao. born almost the last day of nov

lynn, yup, tat the one! pai seh duno how to explain. coz walker hav 2 type stand, push & walk, the other one is sit-in & walk. as what moomummy had said, u shldnt worry too much. let ur boy develop at his own phase.
my hb also use wat moomummy have done when my gal is crusing tat time. my gal hold on to our coffee table & he always sit near & open his arms & leg & said walk to dad dad & my gal will smile, hesitate, walk & stumble toward to my hb. & of coz my hb will catch her before she fell to floor. he will practice with her during weekend. he will also put her to push walker & let her walk walk, he will bend & direct the walker in case my gal push to fast or bang to the wall.
& soon when my gal confident is build, she will start & try walk bit by bit without holding onto things & one day,to my amazment, wola, she suddenly stand up & walk from living room to kitchen & bac to living room. it really amazing to see ur child growth & learn.
so dun be hard on B k.
 
congrats KIKI!!!n all the preg mummies.. plus those already given birth to #2!!!

maid:
i agree fresh maid is better. more obedient.. transfer maid is like u cant teach old dogs new tricks.. i had one previously n super duper bad attitude.. work ok but black face, and throw tantrum when she not hapi... haiz..

potty train.
well done Brandon!! =)
my son has not been wetting the diaper for the past 3 days...dry.. so officially i can announced tat he is fully potty train.. ..=)
 
morning!!

wa some bb are already potty trained liao ah.. so fast! how to start training ah? my mum say tedious to train leh.. some i am FTWM... advices pls!!! ;p
 
morning mummies!

darlest: yup yup. bibi & mosh on the same day. then mosh just gave birth again few weeks ago. where do u live? quite a lot of us in the NE side.

snnowy, jes, moomum: jes is right, cheng san is in hougang mall. other libraries have it too but cheng san's is convenient for me - wed evenings. there's a new run starting in apr. need to go 15 mins to half hr beforehand to register at the e-kiosk. at this age, i think such things r a good start. brot my big boy couple of times when he was a tot but i won't bring luke & gerard cos they already know how to talk & like reading books.

congrats iluvbli55. i even forgot she's pregnant
happy.gif


kiki duck! how u? so fast 11 weeks already.

lynn: brandon sure is clever. mine only training the big biz first & still got a lot of accidents. rachel is fast outgrowing XL. i also donno how.

where's ah lian?
 
Iluvbli55,
Congrats on 2nd time mum.


Kiki,
Hope you get your princess this round. Hang in there since you are almost clearing 1st trimester. MS will disappear before you realised.
I heard from a nurse friend before, if your MS is in the evening, there is usually a specific timing it starts right? Do eat something light half an hour prior to it and it will curb that MS.Hope it help =)


Dymples,
Haiz, I also heard most of my friends are running amook with 2 kids. They keep asking am I sure if I want a 3rd? Most likely they will turn the hse upside sown and especially since I'm without a maid.
Btw, who is taking care of J when you are working now? The caregiver cannot help you with another half a year b4 your enrol her to cc? You staying in serangoon area too? There is a new cc under PCF Sparkletots that just started its operation on 1 March. You may want to take a look there. Rate will be arounfd $342 after subsidy for ful time working mom.
happy.gif



Gal.dolphin/Lynn,
Congrats, Greg is officially diaper free. I've not really started my bb cos she is just walking and the way she walk is as if she is drunk, cannot keep to 1 line so we are worried that she will slipped and fall.


Soho,
Let natural takes it own course. Sometime the more stressful you are, the more difficult it is.
 
Kiki,
For your MS, maybe you wanna try drinking some ginger beer or ginger tea (Teh Halia)? I took both when I had MS and it helped to reduce the nausea. Hope your MS goes away quickly.


ILuvBli,
Congrats Congrats! Rest well and enjoy those baby moments again.
happy.gif



Snnowy,
Yah... my 3 are turning the house upside down already. Somemore now that #3 is older and can walk and run, she will always look for her jie-jies to play with them. It's like a continuous love-hate relationship. When they are in loving mood, the 3 of them will hug and kiss, cuddle and sayang each other till bits. But comes to fighting.. aiyohz.. headache lor. Will scream, yell, push and fight.

My dad is helping me take care of baby J now. But can see he is getting really tired out. Plus got household politics going on. To ease his 'burden' I'm looking to put baby J into CC for half day. Then in Jan next year will change to Full Day Care instead. Too bad I'm not staying at Serangoon area leh. I'm at CCK. So looking at a few CC's. But the so-called branded ones the fees are damn ex siah - S$550 onwards after subsidy for Half Day Care. *faintz*
 
Good Morning!

Lynn,
i dun like to put my girls on the potty so ussually i put them on top of the toilet bowl, cos i dun like to clear the shit in the potty. kekeke.... me bad...

yeah, i think the jie jie helped the mei mei a lot on the speech, like last night she will tell mei mei, mei mei u say 1 then mei mei say 1, then she say 2, then mei mei say 2 and so on and so forth.. kekek... wat a cute sight. mi and hubby were arm chioing away. but then again girls ussually talk earlier. charlene started talking very early too, ard 9 to 10 months. for mei mei is slightly earlier.

gal dolphin,
wow ur boy so fast too. actaully i thought girls are normally faster in potty training but seems like all the boys are really good now too. kekek....i am a very lazy mummy, even my elder girl i also dun really potty train her. for me i just let them tell me when they are ready. :p
 
Milderina,
*Hi-5* I'm also a lazy mommy. Can't be bothered to teach them to use potty. I'll leave them in their diapers all the way till they are 18-months and go CC. Then at CC, they will slowly learn to go toilet. hahahah... save me all the stress and headache. *lolz*
