but last nite.. its really different. 1st she met my friend n smile at her..next moment she pout n start to fuss.. after tat worst.. i brought her to paragon, spaggettis to eat.. she saw the ceiling with alot of twinning grass, spiders type, she start to pout again n cry... then stop awhile, think think again pout n cry... i brought her out of the restaurant.. she continue cry..

last week brought her to tampines mall.. she is fine leh... to other ppl house also ok..usually go restaurant, coffee shop also ok.

think i gonna try her out again...

Hi,

anyone bb testes have water retention in it. my bb now already 3 months. By 6 months, if still not getting better, PD will run test on him. any help ?
 
emeraldbride, thanks! I didn't see this until now. Anyway, decided not to go after all. Last night hubby came down with a bad case of flu. Then this morning I felt a bit sore-throatish. Better not, in case I spread the bug.

Jowin, think your baby is starting to recognise strangers. That's part of the developmental milestones; don't worry! In the first few months, most babies have very good PR. They'll smile sweetly at anyone who looks them straight in the eyes and smile. But as they grow older, they learn to recognise people, places and development memory. So when they see strangers or places they dunno, they'll start to cry.

Today David did his first flips! He does them in two stages. First he will raise his legs high and flip himself to the side and rest for a few seconds. Then he straightens his legs and flip onto his tummy! Repeated that three, four times until he was tired and frustrated, then started to fuss. :p Hee so happy!
 
phy.
yah. LOL.
I did that, I saw Xuelyn and quickly I follow...(still don't know her then) Enjoyed myself with all the mummies and babies.

Snowger
Thanks for having us over at your house. Hope we didn't make too much of a mess.

Oops I think my baby got left out of the photos. She must have been sleeping or eating when the photos were taken.

Hey snowger,

Sam,
So nice meeting up with you. Hope u had fun as much as I did.
happy.gif
Ur baby ger is sooooooooo cute! And her neck's really strong manz...

Jlow,
u mentioned there is a redhill mothers forum? Where? can send me a link? I want to go there to kaypoh... *hehe*
 
Snowger - Thanks for inviting us to your place. Thanks for helping me to warm up my ebm with ur warmer too.

Emeraldbride - I've copied some of the photos u took today fr ur album in facebook. Didn't notice u took 1 pic of Valerie with Zach. :p
 
So cute! All the babies in the bb look so alert n happy. Think they find friends of their age to play with liao. They can communicate in their own bb language. Paiseh, always remember Look who's talking movie so always believe that bb do communicate with bb in a language that adult dunno. Hehe...

Juz,

Ur bb is so cute in the BIG romper! He really live up to his BIGness. From the pix, I observe he is the biggest of all bb. How heavy is he now? I think he win my bb both hands down. Sighs... My bb is very small, only 6kg at 5 months, though she is much chubby than when she is 1 or 2 months. She got elephant thighs now. I will be upgrading to Mamy Poko M size very soon.
 
thanks snowger for giving a place for the illegal infant care.

thanks tamms for the ride home.

nice meeting all of you. we should have taken all the babies pic together....maybe next time.
 
ivy ... don say "ILLEGAL" la .. hahahhahaa .. it wasn't wat. we din DUMP our babies with snowger to look after and go shopping .. (eh, isn't that a good idea .. since her home relatively near to Great World CIty?)

snowger, thanks .. haiyah, i evil mummy put her on her tummy so she forced to exercise her neck .. hahaha
happy.gif

happy.gif

snowger

Hi gals
Can anyone advise me how to stop breastfeeding naturally? I wanna try to cut down supply to none before i resort to pop the medicine.

meaning, i try to drag the hours.. I am on 6 hrs interval now.. i have to drag to 8 hrs??? then when i pump, i only pump half and dun empty the breasts?? I am prone to having blockage easily.. not sure if this can do anot...
 
Jowin, u now on 6hrs interval using Ameda oso still having blockage?? Sorry I dunno how to stop breastfeeding naturally cos my milk is not abundant in the first place, just nice for Zach's daily consumption..haha

Merydith, Zach is tall n lanky hor.. his leg is not those chubby type one lor. Hb say play soccer's leg n my father say swimming leg..wat lar..hahaha. Mabbe I shuld increase his FM to 2 feed per day to see if fats will grow or not..haha

Juz, i tink Ambrose is the biggest size baby there liao lar..hahaha...how come yesterday he fusses so much? The other time he oso din fuss tat much..starts recognising places liao?
 
hi kath
yes.. yesterday block abit.keep massage lor. i pump for 1hr.. only yield abt less than 100ml.. not even 1 letdown.

Ameda pump, i can declare tat its a temperamental pump... i can only pump when i m in good mood and have alot of letdown... if not, not even a single letdown ..however, once there are letdown , it can really empty breasts so much better than freestyle &amp; clear some lumps...

i accidentally hit the bottle n spill the milk all over... very very low morale. somemore its 2am already..I still need to go n bathe as i m all wet

my HB woke up to help me clean n said " I thought you want to give up already.. why still 2am here pumping? Give up la...everyday vent anger at every pump sessions"
sad.gif
 
Hi Maureen,
thanks on letting us invade ur hse... both u &amp; ur hubby are wonderful host!

all the mommies &amp; daddies at the gathering, so nice to see everyone!!!

Jowin, i read somewhr that to stop BF naturally, u cut one session per wk? then ur body wld slowly stop producing milk..

Kath, next time we meet for lunch!
 
jo..u hit the bottle n u angry at urself huh?? Mabbe u r too tired liao lar.. u shuld get enuf rest first n then see how it goes again. Most impt is to keep urself in good spirit.

Bur, sure..i got ur mobile number liao. We can do lunch next next week liao..hehe
happy.gif
 
ooo.. seems like it was alot of fun!! hahahaha... such a pity that hayden had to miss this gathering... well... hope there will be a next time soon!!

Juz... ya.. must post ambrose's weight!! Hayden is big but NOT so BIG!! hayden is 7.5kg yesterday!

jo, you can also try pumping lesser time at longer intervals... but honestly if u are trying to stop then if u keep getting blocked u might as well just pop the pill la... dun prolong your agony la.. u will be happier if u are not in pain! =) jia you!

kath.. zach is LoooOOoonG.... hahahaha...
 
wow, some of the babies got sooo much hair! sad gotta miss e gathering coz got guests over unexpectedly..

eh... not that one la.. hahaahahaha... i nv see zach since i saw him in at TMC.. haha.. n din see under his diaper b4 also leh... hahahahaha...
 
fabbie, jowinbaby,
i try to finish it chop chop within 30min..i wil have to squeeze n squeeze the breast to help speed up the process but i think a bit diff lo.. cos me using swing. so 15min each breast.i wil bring 2 funnels to ofc, so i wont sterilise in ofc, jus rinse wif water(to cut down time for pumping session) so can show face back on desk faster.. hee...
 
wow. d gathering looks so fun! too bad cant attend coz jayzon not feeling well. next time tink i cant give ans straight away. gotta give laz min ans so nothing crops up. haha.

anyone bought stuff from taka bb fair? spent quite abit at istean pte sale so din pop over to taka to shop. ltr hubby scold if i sign any more card. =p
 
hi gals,
Any of you using b-free bottles &amp; teats (slow flow - 0 to 3mths)? I want to sell - all brandnew one. Got interest just PM me ok?

Jowin,
I did a little research &amp; asked my colleague as well:
- Stop breast feeding naturally by dragging hrs -(i.e. cutting down on the number of pumps)
- Pump a little out of the breast (without triggering the let down - this is wat i read off the web - is it possible?) to relive the pain + engorgement to prevent infection
- If you feel that there are lumps in ur breast, massage during the shower to soften the lumps and let them leak while showering

I think if u do gradual reducing should take quite long...
happy.gif
For me, my production per 4hrly is 7oz, so most prob when i going to stop i will pump abt 3oz (1.5oz per breast...).
 
iemik0,
I din buy anything fr the fair... Unless u wanna buy those annuku stuff... Think carmen say the cotton wool is 3 for 10dollars. Nothing special or new unless u use Pigeon bottles lor...
happy.gif
