Here are some warning signs that you should watch for to ensure that your child is developing at a normal rate:
One of the first signs of autism is if the baby does not look, make eye contact, or turn after hearing their name.
If the baby doesn't smile in response.
If the baby doesn't mimic what you're doing.
If the baby doesn't make attempts to talk (gibberish, babbling)
If the baby is not visually attracted to things.

RE: Aquaducks Trial
Likely hubby will 下水. He can swim better.
Re: Cereal Amt
I din follow exactly the amt also. Now my duaghter is taking about half a bowl (rice bowl size) of cereal for BF (with fruits) and 1 bowl of porriage each for lunch and dinner. The first mouthful she takes at every meal, she will give a look that seems to suggest that she hates it but actually she likes the food. Cos she will complain if we are too slow at feeding her after that.
Re: DOIDY Cups
All your cups mailed out le except those self collect and those who have not paid. Anyone who wants me to bring cups for Tai Tai outing, please let me know. My daughter is gradually getting used to the cup and we managed to get her to drink abit more water now. She hates water. Ask her to drink is like wanting her life like that. But at least now she's getting used to the cup.

Gd morning..
Re: Autism
Actually if a bb is OVERTLY attracted to certain visuals, that is also a sign of autism. Ppl still do not know what causes autism, it seems to hit boys more than gals. also u won't be able to tell if a kid has autism until abt 2 yrs old. the comprehensive test for autism can only be taken abt 5 yrs old i think. Some ppl feel that vaccination causes autism, but if that's the case then more kids shd be autistic cos there are compulsory jabs. I need to do more research on this, but most ppl feel the MMR is the one that 'causes' autism. Have been having intensive discussion abt this with a fren of mine. heh..
Re: Taitai outing
If u guys are gg to Suntec, CALL ME! i m at Suntec from today 3pm onwards.
Won't be checking into the forum at all.
Mildy, got gd spree rem to tell me hor. hahaha..

I steam t apples for 15min. Then blend them together with some water left in the bowl (t one used for steaming)
Was reading the thread mummy2nia provided abt vaccine causes autism. Very insightful.
But as a layman, it is really hard to decide wat is best.

Lilian, good to share with you all. I noe wat u mean, its tough to decide whether vaccine is good. I have still yet to decide, to vaccine or not. U noe, that first 6 mos when we have to bring our bbs for vaccination, we always have to look out for fever. Wah, so stressful. when i read forum, i felt like i was torturing my bb!
Nutnut...my bb likes watery not too lumpy wait she will get choked! Ur nini opp cos ur mil 'train' her mah..
Porridge
btw, i've started giving bb porridge for the past week. Today, i asked my maid to put minced meat inside..just a bit, cos i read the ang moh recipe book from 7 mos give beef lah, lamb lah. Mainly for protein. She ate a bit then found the taste funny. After a few spoonfuls, she reject the food leh.

adensmummy, since your bb like rice cereal, have you tried mixing apple puree with the rice cereal? my bb loves that! just steam apple, sieve it, then mix it with the rice cereal along with some of the water that came with steaming the apple.... mix till smooth! Also, sometimes the apples are sour thats y bb not used to it... when the apples are sweet its easier for them to accept in the beginning i think! Today, i tried pear with rice cereal and bb loves that too! made 3 and a half tbs and he wanted more!
bubblebeemum, welcome!!
I also learn alot and get good tips frm this thread...

Hi Mummies!
Porridge: I just started porridge on bb once a day for dinner. breakfast is rice cereal with fruit purees. My bb likes porridge to be more watery otherwise difficult to swallow. I try on him using chicken stock, I add some pumpkin, apple and minced chicken. so far he like it. yesterday i try fish. i don think fish he can eat now. very difficult for him to swallow. plus i think bear sent a web abt making bb food. the web say fish should start when bb reaches 10mth old. chicken should start first.
Fifi: I didnt know that the payment for the doidy cups. Can I have a yellow doidy cup? can pm me. I transfer the amt to you?

adens mummy, the food maker comes with a sieve so i just steam the apple and mash it through the sieve so the food wont have any lumps. It also comes with a grinder and motar which is useful for foods like spinach etc... actually apples you wont know if its sweet or sour till you eat it! even the same brand of apple will taste different!

Peanut,
i m fine with the buffet at suntec cause can eat more! But for mani/pedi, think i won't do it cos my fingernail are so short and one of my toe nail has crack!
RE: baby's meal
seems like some mummies already start 3 solid food for your bb! I am still at 2, cereal for bf and porridge for dinner. Think hv to gradually increase to 1 more meal at lunch. But i do give teething rusk for her during tea break.

Is it true that fruits after steaming will lose all/most of their vitamins ?
Re: Tai Tai outing
If dowan mani pedi, can consider foot reflex at Kenko too. Not fish spa hor. Those press press foot reflex. Not bad and what I like abt it is that they dun use oil. They use powder. Wont be slimy slimy.
Yah I also have quite a few sessions of mani/pedi at Nail Xpert. One of the last times i went was with Jo and Alibaba before we delivered. So long ago...

Peanut, i wanna do pedi cos this whole wk i need to wear heels and suit! but too late liao.. later gg to suntec to do hard labour. heh.. then will try to sneak off to go and buy a pair of nice shoes!
Actually, u guys shd intro pork first rather than chicken. apparently pork is the least allergenic of all the meat.
Joyce, Z is only on ONE solid meal a day, just plain puree some more. sigh..
