phyl, i dunno if the sling is too small for bb..he is like so squeezy inside..all stiff!! haha and keep making the eh eh sound..haha
 
Hey Phyl, saw on your blog about baby Hayden. Could it be intolerance to milk protein? Maybe can try eliminating dairy products from your diet if you are breastfeeding?
 
hi gals
i din post for sometime. Very stress up and i m also looking after the baby alone especially at nite.. Bcos of my previous incident which i mentioned a few days ago. Finally stop all the nonsense today. I gave in..

Baby will have to shave all her hair n eyebrow off b4 i can return to my own home, as mentioned to be all " cleansed". I very very very heartpain.

Hi Jes
When i see my BB vomit out milk, also contain phlegm inside.. no cough also. I m thinking is it bcos pregnant time, i ate too much oranges.
 
the shop name is fu kwee siang! It is near the cc...got sell bak gua! I just stock up my boi fm, 10tins of dulax under dumex at 9.80! Cheaper than ntuc by 2bucks! Tks iemik0! Abt gripewater, i am giving my boi, abt 1 teaspoon to 70ml water once a day.
 
jowinbaby,

dun blame yourself of the itake. I dun think that affect lei. Cos i dun really take orange but my baby also have phlegm.

jes,
wow so so many mths liao still like that? My boy at the 1st mth was like dun wan to go school once start to head for the school direction he will cry. Lucky that last like 1wk. and the teacher say he cry for like 0.5hr for the few 2 days then cry for 5mins from 3 day. Now is hard to wake him out. Other than that he is ok to go school.

Once your boy in school he is ok rite?
 
jowinbaby,
but i nv eat orange ler during pregnant tat time so i wonder where his phlegm came fr... and i oso dun remember my #1 encounter this ler, only vommit milk, no phlegm...
 
hi mummies

im thinking so many of us is interested echo/mimi intro the kellysjyphotography could we like gather how many mummies are interested then we ask the photographer can charge us at 2008 rate? rather than now the 2009 rate so expensive wor. HMm just a suggestion lar. hhehe

jowin
u give in to what?? and wha?! even eyebows also shave???!!! you wanted it? or ?? if u dun wan. please voice out. she's ya daughter. My in law and hub wanted to shave and after ive consider for a few days i have decided to voice it out and say NO shaving!
 
jowin/fabbie

My mum also shave off my daughter eyebrow. But now her eyebrow look much better than b4. So maybe this is the reason they want to shave it. Just like our own hairs. Once u cut it, they grow back much better. But of course, u r the mummy, u decide.
 
fabbie, good idea on asking kelly to charge us a cheaper rate is more mummies is keen. But must all of us congregate at a place then onie will be cheaper?
 
<u>Shaving hair</u>
I didnt shave for my gal. Heard that after a few mths, hair will drop and there will be patches. Is it true?

<u>Burping</u>
My gal cant seem to be burped even after an hour. Usually after feed, she will fall asleep. Anyone has this prob?
 
Jowinbaby, can I ask what does this phlegm vomit look like? My baby spits up all sorts of stuff, sometimes he vomits so violently the milk comes through his nose. So heartpain. PD said his vomitting is due to air in his tummy.

2nd Baby, my mum didn't shave my hair and eyebrows when I was a baby because it took my sister a full year to grow her hair back! All my hair remained intact until today - no patches! :p

Burping: I can't burp my baby too. He also falls asleep nursing. My hb on the other hand, is very good with burping. He seemed to be able to get very good burps out from David... so we just do a major burping exercise every night when hb comes back from work.
 
Spagh, my girl vomits lots of milk too. After every feed. Even after 1-2 hrs, she will still vomit milk. PD says either wind or reflux and proceed to check my bb. After that, I also forgot ask her if its wind or reflux.

How did yr hb burp yr bb? Over his shoulders?
 
jowinbaby,
ya he cries for a while only once go into his class... but the problem here is, it is so difficult to pull him to the school ler...headache! dunno how long it's going to be..

2nd baby,
ya i oso heard baby's hair will drop as in patches after 4mths... anyway i got shave my boy's hair but not bcoz of that reason, but his hair is too little liao (like my#1) so might as well shave &amp; let his hair re-grow again...

photo taken when we shaved our boy's hair at Wk3

huh u trying to burp ur gal till one hr? normally i juz burp my boy for few mins if nothing happen i will juz leave him on the bed &amp; let him sleep...
 
today is my 1st day w/o CL, must say not easy. now tonite is the NITE! i will need to start waking up from tonite for Kasia's nite feeds... hope she can guai guai eat and go back to sleep.. if not i dun knw how im goin to last tml and Fri... (my HB will be back ard 11pm-12am from reservist)... I need blessing!

Fabbie:
sori lor, now i miss going back to werk... think my boss so much easier to manage than Kasia! haha... well, having said dat, i will try to enjoy my short 1 mth with Kasia (will handover to BB sitter from early-mid Feb during day time) ;)

Phyl:
great to hear dat. hopefully our BBs acne will clear soon.. see their face i so heart pain.

Xuelyn, Pastillies &amp; Bubble:
jia you! im sure our maternal instinct will kick in. i just hope Kasia will be a good gal to mummy =D

Viomit:
i realise Kasia tend to viomit EBM more than FM. So now i try to burp her 2X in pm and it seems to werk. will try again tml =)
 
hi all, sorry to interrupt but would like to check if anyone's kid is pooing after every feed?
my boy is turning 1 mth next wk and he poos almost after every feed! i bf him during day and supplement with fm in the night. wonder if it's "normal"... can't remember if my #1 was pooing so frequently...
 
Jappooh,
PD says okie to give gripe water. I give a small teaspoon a day only. My gal loves it, bcos it’s sweet.

Jes,
My #1 is born in Dec 05. So both my children are Dec kids.
My elder gal is very shy, so I started to send her for ‘socializing’ at weekly enrichment class at 18mths. When she went to playgroup at 2 yrs old, she’s okie &amp; didn’t cry. I only accompany her during the 1st day, then subsequently she’s on her own
Btw my gynae also increased her antenatal pkg by $200. Inflation mah.. everything increase price.

Re: milk reflux
I forgot to ask PD the cause of reflux. PD advised not to put bb lying down flat soon after drinking milk/burping. Instead hold bb upright for abt 15mins to ensure the milk has flowed down into stomach.

Iemik0,
Thanks.. Will look out for that provision shop.

Echo,
Thanks, got your mail.

Fabbie,
Re: baby photography
If all interested mummies can ask for BP price, of cos that’ll be gd. Will someone organize? So far, how many mummies are interested? I didn’t keep count.
 
hi spagetti
her vomit contain phlegm and also white watery milk. I read the book and realise that its normal.The phlegm is caused by the daily mucus that the baby produced. Unless the phlegm comes with cough.. then have to see doc already.
happy.gif


So its actually good tat when baby vomit, the phlegm comes out with the milk as well.
 
Dee,
my boy is also having cradle cap. Am using Dentinox shampoo as it worked very well when my #1 had it. Suggest you try the shampoo in addition to oiling and brushing scalp.

Hi Xuelyn

She dun need to travel daily to &amp; forth my house. I can go back to my own mum house to stay liao...I know this sound ridiculous but its like tat lor.. i really sianz...

dee
when i was wrapping her she cry. after i wrap finish she kept quiet. she seems to be okai ah. when i took off her swaddle usually i can feel she's hot but she didnt complaint or cry. if she does feel irritating she wil just to find her ways to get her hands out of the cloth.

Thanks mimi for asking for us. im still asking my hubbie to allow me to take photos for my gal! arghz.. he say waste money T__T
 
What's with CL &amp; their magic touch that bb settles almost immediately once they take over har??? Isit their smell or what? I'm beginning to have fear of incapable to cope when CL is gone.

Nite feeds will be most jialat for me. I'm dead as a log and all these while have been relying on my CL to bottle feed bb. Jialat liao lah....T__T
 
morning ladies,

so tired today, my boy woke up so many times last nite &amp; refused to sleep after the feeding at 2am, &amp; in fact he was not hungry coz he juz had his milk around 1am but hubby said he dun hav enough tat's y he woke up, but when i fed him EBM he only drank 1.5oz, after tat his eyes so big &amp; dun wan to sleep till 5am... then 6.30am he woke up again !!!!! my boy at 1st few wks quite ok one, nitetime after feeding he will guai guai go back to sleep by his own, now like getting worse, after feeding then got to carry / pat him to sleep...

btw, how u keep ur baby awake during daytime? wat u will do with him/her? play and talk? hav u set a daytime routine for them? like wat time to take nap??

one more thing... i know TBF baby will poo a lot, but till when? so long as they r on BM?? reason asking coz my boy until now still poo many times a day &amp; he could use up 10pcs of diaper a day ler... my mamypoko jumbo 72pcs use up soon juz a bit more than a week... shiong ah!!
 
ikeike, i guess its their calming voice n touch. Alot of ppl say CL's are very 'zai' which means their heartbeat are very constant, so bb feel more secure each time they are being carried. Unlike us, sometiems when bb cry, we will be abit flustered, and bb can feel it when we carry them. Exampl, when i first bathe my baby 2 days ago, he can sense that i m nervous, he clench his fist so tightly and he make himself so stiff. He's afraid that i may drop him..haha. But next day, he is okay liao..can kick water.

Jes, bb's pattern is different everyday. today he may not sleep alot at nite, tmr will be different. My boy did not sleep alot during the day time for the past few days but yesterday he slept after each feeding. So no 2 days of bb behaviour is the same. Y don't u use napkin in the day time? Save alot leh. My boy is using napkin in the day time and diapers at nite..i alr feel the pinch cos 1 nite he can change abt 2-3 diapers..after mamy poko i may switch to nepia to try out..
 
fabbie,
hhmm.. ok.. i shall try.. i hope his heat rash won't get more tho..
he's having heat rash around his face and neck too.. seemed to travel down to his truck also!!!
sad.gif
 
Jes...i am also tired today...I carry my boi to sleep today..i did not realised i was carrying him till my mum wake me up today..he was sleeping soundly on my chest..the last feeding at 5.45am..n he did not want to sleep..but the problem is ytd afternoon he did not sleep much..n dunno why he did not want to sleep this morning! End up..i sing song..till i fall asleep..

Jes: did u try nappies w liner during daytime? Less siong on ur pocket...Daytime i use nappies n nite time i use diapers..abt max 4 diapers per nite.
 
I am using leftover pampers from my hb's friend who pass to us..but like not v good leh..i also got huggies ultra but i find it too bulky..any good diapers ard? Wanted to buy Nepia during NTUC promotion last week..but hb go too late..the staffs say usually these kind of promotions only last for 3-4 days..
 
emeraldbride,
napkin? lazy la coz got to soak before wash esp my boy's poo so yellowish if never handwash sure got stain... now i got no helper so dun wan to add on my burden...already got a lot of laudry to do coz my hubby &amp; #1 like to change their clothes a lot... wat i do is place a nappy liner on the diaper, if baby happen to poo after change at least i can juz change away the liner &amp; use back the same diaper coz still new mah, of coz if the diaper is beyond 'rescue' already then i juz change another new one lor...
 
Jess, my David also uses A Lot A LOT of diapers every day. He particularly likes to poop a few minutes after I change him. (-_-") My mother says I've spoiled the baby. She used to train us by sitting us on the potty each morning when we were babies, and we learned to poop only when we are seated on the potty... of course, to do this, you also need the SPECIAL skill of being able to tell that baby is going to poop by his/her expression... Both my mum and MIL have this special skill. I have none. So I change diapers loh. :p

BTW, my baby has finally taken to the sarong! I try not to "shake" the sarong at all, just put baby in when he is drowsy. He can sleep for a long time in it leh! Wahaha....Happy...

Wah emeraldbride, you use cloth napkin...peifu peifu... Cloth napkin must handwash leh. I taking care of baby alone... no time.

Today David woke up at 4.15am and refused to go to sleep. But he was in a good mood...slept for 4.5 hours since 11.45pm. Kept smiling at me. I also no heart to make him go sleep against his will, so played with him until 6.45am, when he puked all over his PJ. Bathed him and fed him, then he happily go sleep at 8am while I go have my teleconf. Super tired...
 
bubblepear,
i know nappy less shiong on pocket but shiong to me ler coz more laudry need to do.... hehe! my hubby asked if i need a maid or not coz a lot of his fren commented that it's not possible for a mummy to take care 2 kids alone... but i dun wan coz 1). no privacy 2).lots of problem 3).eco is bad &amp; i dun wan to add on hubby's burden coz already not working... think i will only agree to get one if really really really boh bian...

btw, nepia got S size meh?
 
spaghetti,
train them to sit on the potty??? so young ler how to...? &amp; i also dunno when they going to poo mah, sometimes they only poo a bit...

btw, my baby poo in the water when i bathed him yesterday, &amp; the whole tub is fully of yellowish shit... yuck! this morning he poo on the changing mat when i juz removed his diaper... arghh.. every morning made me so boh eng...
 
Jes, nepia got S size I think. But only available through online ordering.

http://www.nepia.com.sg/english/index.html

I wanted to order, but must order 4 packs at one go. So I didn't order. Any mummies in Punggol or Sengkang want to try Nepia NB / S size? Want to share?

Potty: Can one. Must hold the little baby on the potty, then make the "mmm...mmm" sound. According to my mother, we were trained since one month old...and never ever wetted a bed in our toddler stage! Last time mothers very amazing.

Wah...poop in the bath! That one ultimate.
 
Jes &amp; bubblepearl
Nepia S size need to order online
happy.gif
Not sure NTUC have S size anot. I always see from M size onwards. I have been trying out many brands of diapers. So far, i dun like Fit Fit, Huggies, Dryers, Goon all easily leak. Still prefer on Pampers Dry Comfort( Green n red packing) and Nepia. Mamy Poko, i use it at nite.. but no difference leh. Nepia can also use at nite...
happy.gif


However i think it works on different baby.

Hi bubblepearl
same la.. hahaha... i sing songs n pat baby and let her lie on my chest to sleep... then i fell asleep with her.. until my HB woke me up and put baby back to cot.. haha!!! Baby like such position to sleep as they can hear our heartbeat.. ( very familiar to them) and comfort lor. I felt very very bond to baby when carrying her to sleep with this position too...
 
bb potty training
hmm.. not too sure but i've heard that if they are "trained" this way, doesn't that mean only when potty comes then they will poo-poo.. else, they won't at all?
wouldn't this put strain on their system?
 
spaghetti,
i'm in sengkang but how much is one packet? can't find the price ler, is it cheaper per pc?
not sure the cutting is big or small ler coz i'm now using mamy poko S for my boy &amp; i find it juz nice... used huggies ultra b4 but the cutting so mall... if nepia cutting smaller then i wont consider ler
 
Hi Spag
Why dun u mix the size? You can order S size or M size together.. not necessary all same size
happy.gif

Last time i order 2 S and 2 NB
happy.gif
 
Kath, u using nappies for ur boi? Do you still swaddle him? I mean the lower part of the body? I am still swaddling him..except for his hand..n i have remove mittens liao..as i read that mitten will restrain his reflex ..i wonder if swaddling his lower part ok a not?
 
dee

diapers

Jowin, i want to buy M size nepia..during the promotion..ya lor..bb like to sleep on our chest hor...

spaghetti: my hb got the skill to know whether my boi want to poo..when he poo a bit..my hb will...make poo poo sound..sort of toilet trained.

Btw..anyone bb want to drink milk yet drink halfway cry n fall asleep..but abt 10 mins later..wake up..want milk again? I dunno what happen to my boi..these 2 days..getting more difficult to take care..make my parent worried for me when i move back home this sat...now they are asking me dun go back home..sian..
