---------------
Hi mummies,
Thank you for participating in my Parenting Books BP. The order for the books have been placed and processed and the supplier would be delivering the books to me early next week. The moderator has raised some concerns over my BP. What these concerns are, I have no idea and am in the process of clarifying things with the moderator. Hence, I would like to take this opportunity to find out from all of you...whether you prefer to cancel your orders or continue with the BP and wait for the books. If the majority would want to wait for the books, I will continue with this BP and mail out the books to you once I receive them. If the majority prefers to cancel their orders, I will make full refund to all. Do let me know your preference by end of today ok? Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Thank you so much. Cheers,Louisa
 
Merydith,

Pluf:
NTU alumni club is pretty near my work place. Actually I'm not that concerned about the temperature of the weather. I'm a certified swimming coach and an ex competitive swimmer but am not actively coaching now. My parents exposed me to being in the pool when I was a few months old too in my underwear so I think babies are actually a resilient bunch as long as the swimming pool water is not as cold as the English channel! :p

Hope that my baby will love swimming.

merydith, i emailed the moderator and ask why they are investigating the BP. this is wat he reply :

Hi Iris,

Sorry that I'm not able to reveal at this time.

But if is me, I would rather go to a bookshop.



Best regards,
Bee Lee.
 
maidenleak,

Kekeke, then maybe we should just make a group of certain number and find a clean place for our bb to swim,, since you are a cert swimming instructor, (Am I evil or what to save money)! kekekekke..maidenleak no offense ya? save the money take money go buy thermal swimsuit for bb.
 
summer/maidenleak

I am living in the east, well if aquaducks have a buona vista outlet good.. I can go there too.. but both maidenleak and me gotta wait 2 months now.. Kekeke! I wonder to myself whats all this "kan chiong ness" about at times... maybe becoz it is my 1st child..
 
hi pluf,
my ger makes a sucking sound with her lips & tongue too... i tink she suck too much pacifier...
anyone's baby likes to lift their both legs up and bang down? my ger loves to do that everytime day & nite, i got problem with her diapers as it keep leaking frm her back, so i change to pull-up pants from drypers, works for a few nite, then now leak frm the side...
also when she's irritated & sleepy, she will scratch the back of her ears... & loves to rub her face & eyes... her face is permanently in redness, either around the mouth due to her saliva when sucking pacificer or eyes & cheeks... i've use all sorts of cream & lotion but didnt really help...how huh?
 
mimi/merydith,
Maybe they found the supplier not v thrustworthy? Got pirate goods for the book? The next best thing I can think of is the books are "stolen" and sold to us?? Are u gals asking for a refund? *hmmm*

I can't believe it! My ger keep waking up at 4.30am nowadays after sleeping thru aft my CL left. And now she oni drinks 80ml for the 4.30am feed! Actually recently her appetite like oni 1 to 1.5oz niah. Going to bring her to see PD tmr. Haiz... Any of u gals got the same "problem"?
 
Sam,
i got the parklon- yellow bear sch bus playmat. 15mm one. I clean it this morn for my bb to play lata. It seems fine to me, the rubber smell is acceptable oso. i love the colourful appearance n firm quality. Hopefuly my bb loves it too.. n make my $$ worth!! hee..

Pacifier:
I intro tutu to my gal when she's barely 1 mth old lor.. cos I can't take it when she cry n wails so loudly.. It does help to calm her down. I used it particular when she's hungry, waiting for milk n to coax her to slp... It works well so far for me. Will try not to use it under normal circumstances when she doesn't fuss. I bought her teethers.. to replace her thumbs n fingers..hate to see her sucking them as well.. but she only play w teethers for a short while only..

Hope this helps.

Snowger (snowymum)/mimi/merydith,

aiya! i replied the email this morning to Louisa to ask her to proceed. so how ah? should i send the email to ask her to refund?? hrmm... .wondering what happened to that BP ler.

Jowinbaby/Xuelyn,

i also let baby Louis use his bumper mat. i think he still not very appreciate the mat ler. he not like jowinbaby observe the picture ler.

Pacifier:
my boy always play with his pacifier, everytime i put the pacifier into his mouth, he user his hand pull out and play wiht it. sometime he treat his pacifier like teether. alamak! when he pull out his pacifier, then made noise. grrr... sometime he even put his hand inside his mouth just beside the pacifier. so he can suck the pacifier + his hand together. then he make the loud sucking noise, like he eating something that so yummy. :s
 
Hi Bur,

my boy also like to lift up his leg and bump hardly to the bed every night. but, the diaper no leaking ler. what brand u are using? i'm using MP.

same here, my boy when irritated & sleepy, she will scratch the back of his ears... & loves to rub her face & eyes... his face also permanently in redness, either around the mouth due to his saliva when sucking pacificer or eyes & cheeks... what cream u are using? i use the cream that doc gave, quite ok for baby Louis. and will recover quite fast. my baby boy skin very rough now becos he keep rubbing!!! the cream the doc gave is QV kids mostuirizer cream.
 
aurorin & Juzyounme:

tried different position, baby Louis doesn't like. i tried side way, he thought i want to flip him, then he flipped! aiya! then tried the tummy way, he thought is a playing time, then he lifted his head up and keep looking. grrr... so, his only position is sleep by his back.

just now i on the air-con for him for his afternoon sleep. he seems like can sleep longer!!!
happy.gif
ya.

i really pray this phase can over soon. thanks all the mummies for the tips and advice!!! you gals are super.
 
Pluf,

no offense taken all! That's precisely what I want to do. I just want to pay one time, see what the coaches are doing then later copy and paste back for my baby since I know what to do in the water.

If i'm not wrong, at this age, its more about water confidence for our little ones. getting them comfortable in the water environment and playing games with them in the pool.

Depending on my schedule, i'm quite alright to go anywhere to swim. I currently swim 3 or 4 times a week. MIL lives in the east so sometimes i pop by in the east for a swim too.

Yup, like you, i'm also excited as this is my first one and curious to see how bb takes to the water since I was still swimming until 2 days before I popped! :p
 
louis
hmm.. i ask for refund liao...but no reply yet

insurance/education
anyone bought any education plan for your baby? I still haven source for one yet but I also dun want to rush n get psychoed into a plan too rashly by insurance agent...any good ones?
 
jowinbaby (jowinbaby) just for u only..Kekeke

all in a nut shell,

Aquaducks have got bb swimming classes for 6 mths and above.

waterfun for bb 5 mths and above

Diff from Hwaxin, Bbs dnt use any float

I was looking at waterfun coz my bb and maidenleak is only 4 mths and in June can go .

Maidenleak is a qualified instructor so I was joking we can save money , find a clean pool, gather 5 momies, have fun... spend money on just the thermal suit... and vola we have a class of bbs , mummies,& a qualified instructor.. touchwood... if anything happens! maidenleak comes to the rescue while we hold on to her baby...

U following what I said.. I somehow got lost kekekke!
 
bur (ah_bur)

Your diapers, could either be too small? cos this happened when my bb diapers too small.

and your pull ups too big? coz now she in between size so when i pull her diapers up, the sides, you know you got a inner liner, pull it out more so it wraps her outer thighs more. coz if you dnt it will be stuck at the bottom , that when it will leak, If you dnt understand me, coz I am writing badly.. kekeke I can show you . send you a video clip
happy.gif
 
merydith / Pluf,

Keke i dun mind wait for u gals & babies to join swimming together. It be fun!! Hi merydith, me too staying in Jurong West St 81. U ley? Maybe can organise babies swimming class or we go swimming with little ones

Maybe i shud go try out aquaduck, and let u gals know the feedback lor.
 
I am the one working at buona vista n staying at JW ..in case i confuse you all keke

Yah I dun mind the swimming but no float on ????! I scared for my baby leh..u mean they can float by themselves?
 
I think its best that baby have float lor..be it on the neck or ard arms area.
Cos i dun thk me able to catch hold of baby in water, cos slippery leh.

Imagine when we bath baby at home, already use the anti-slip at the bottom of bath tub liao.
 
Jowin,
My BB can flip!! she flip a few time to show me that it wasn't accidental.. too bad i wasn't fast enuff to captured it in video.. The playmat got some magical powers to make Summer flip! ha ha..

uploaded a pic of her on the playmat:

mommy louise,

Jowin,
Ashlynne very cute, lie next to ah pooh to take pic

Hi Merydith/Summer/Jowinbaby/maidenleak,

Ok now all knoes who into the bb swimming.

Jowinbaby, kekeke what will they be doing .. boy I dnt know..if summer is going to aquaducks she can tell us. The way I read it it more like bb learn confidence. bbs are taught to be able to stay afloat till they are rescued.. I read it in either aquaducks or waterfun, cnt remember just remember myself laughing, coz I tot of the TAtanic.

Maybe, I tot if we all go for the course pay 200 plus first, we know what to do..then later same group just find swimming place to go? How does that sound?
 
summer,

I work in that area.. kekekeke...
well , I think it wont be dangerous, and I am sure bb knoe how to "swim" if not they wont have these course..in Singapore surely kena sue, jail
 
Hi xuelyn.

Thanks for the infor.

Hello Pluf,
Which part of Tg Pagar u work? Me near Springleft Bldg.

Haha let me bring cadence down to aquaduck and shall update u gals again. Ya me also wanna let her learn to be confident,and exercise her legs.
She love bathing time..always kick and splash water one. But inside pool mah...ummm..dunno yet
 
Hi Xuelyn
Oh.. Summer also very cute n she seem so happy on the mat..

Ah pooh seem HUGE on the mat lor.. hahah....

U bought the flatable bear for summer!!
 
pluf
oh.. with no float on? Er.. i dun know I feel safe anot :p I think this training not to train up their confidence but also mummy's confidence to hold them in water....

I dun wanna scare her n forever scare of water already...
sad.gif


maybe i paranoid...later she love splashing water when bathing.. but not sure if inside pool...can anot.. Perhaps i shd try her out with pool for a few times to get familiar 1st... then build up her confidence level..
 
pluf.. i'm interested to join the class.. can u PM me with more details. i can join only if class is on weekdends.. =)
 
jowin,
Ya i got the flatout bear for her! cute hor! but then the fur on the bear seems to fall out easily.. sian.. if tat con't then its will become's mummy's posession!! ha haa..

echo,
i oso interested in the socks.. thanks for the link! hee

snowger/jlow,
saw ur post in SSW bp.. everyone buying playmat.. hee
happy.gif
 
xuelyn, use a brush to brush out the excess fur!! hayden's flatout bear also like that.. so i use the hair brush for my cat on the flatout bear.. kekeke
 
wat class are u gals talking abt?

nowadays doing exclusive pumping..difficult to post! AFter pumping, need to wash n sterilise then do some housework then time to pump again..hahah

Gals that is doing pumping, ask u all hor..until when can we prolong the pumping interval? Say now i m pumping 3hrs..when shuld i increase to 4hrs then 5hrs then 6hrs?? I intend to go back to work when i can pump at 6hrly and the output is enuf for zach! Todae i gave him 170ml n the teacher told me that he dun hv enuf!! Meaning now i hv to give him 180ml!! When i took leave, he onie 150ml then yesterday 160ml then today 170ml ..if everyday increase, i super duper stress..haha
 
juz came back from vivo... walau, the weather damn hot today!!

pluf,
think my baby is the slowest, he has not even flipped once...

bur,
my boy also like to bang both his arms & legs on the bed very hard, dunno why they do tat...

mommyloius,
my baby also like to use his hand & pull out pacifier but he's not playing with it, but instead, he will pull out the pacifier & scream... hehee! ur boy like to put pacifier & finger into his mouth?? mine like to put his fingers in while he's sucking my nipple & make very funny sound...

think nowadays babies like to put anything into their mouth... my boy likes to grab everything & 'bite', and if my arm happens to come in contact to his lips, he will juz suck/bite my arm...

Parenting book BP
i also joined & paid liao le... dunno wat happen ler think better ask for refund bah
 
evening mommies..
wah so many posts in just 1 day.. was too busy with meetings to be able to logon to internet :p

CJ,
I just PM you contact for mover... got another one http://www.kcdat.com.sg/singapore/organise/services/fromsg.htm# can check it out :D

Pluf,
Hey me stay in East too.. maybe can meet up. I am at east coast :D

re: Swimming
Wah wish i can join the swimming class also! I love to swim and i hope my kids will enjoy it too. But dont think i will have time since Avery will only complete her immunization shots mid-May, by then will be busy liao.
sad.gif


re: Developmental milestones,
Dont stress mummies! All kiddos will eventually reach the milestones (be it flipping, sitting etc) in their own time. Just enjoy the process!
happy.gif
Btw, i thot the playmat was a good buy. I got the parklon one and its nice and colourful.

Side note: The steady surface also makes it easier for bbs to turn/flip if they are trying to, as compared to a mattress.

re: funny things that bbs do
At the moment, avery is "auditioning" for "singing" contest. She is making noises all the time and loudly too. Her fav is saying "Ah hmm" and yes, doing that 'lolly' in the mouth thing too!
happy.gif
like what some of you said, everything will go into the mouth and she enjoys 'talking' with her mouth full. :D
 
About the parentin book I am not sure but there is a similar close bp that also coincidentally sell the same kind of books at the same price but the deal did not go through. The organizer also did not refund monies to all the participants hmm not sure if it is connected
