Ok, the lady from Abbott called and she also feels that possibly Bryan cannot digest the new formula with the pro & pre biotics which could also be the culprit that causes his diahorrea. Her advise is not to give him any formula with pre & pro biotics at the moment and stick to the old formula till he is about 18mths old then slowly intro Gain IQ.
Wah lau, like tat i must go and hunt for the old similac and keep stock liao.

kath,
my elder 2 girls drink Mamil Gold Step 4 ... I tried Similac and Gain for BOTH of them when they were younger but they had constipation .. so my friend recommended Mamil Gold. Actually not too bad, and cheaper too !! ..

xuelyn
Ashlynne still taking medium size NUK teats. I change to the large teat, she choke also.. i pour water into it.. the flow is so fast... no wonder she choke lor... Good idea to punch a small hole to it.. The medium size seem too slow. i also find her suck abit harder now.. more effort to drink.. but then slow enough to make her drink n zzzz... hahahaha!!!

Bryan loves his yoghurt and he has taken both yoplait and heinz. So far no such problem thats why we are puzzled why he reacted so strongly to this. Now I'll have full tin of the new formula sitting on my counter liao 'cos I just opened the new tin on Monday. *sigh*.....

Luthadel,
Did you ask the lady if it will be btr to intro pro-biotics (in milk) to Bryan when he's young? Build up his capacity for pro-biotics since u'll be letting him take GAIN? i.e. mix the old n new formula for him?
Esp u have one tin at home... might as well trial n error...

Jappooh/Snowger - I also joining both of u leh.. also not organising birthday party.. just celebrate with relatives and maybe invite some of my friends also.. Hv asked my sis to bake cupcakes and a small cake (for cutting).. oh I even forgot abt birthday gift for my gal.. 
Jowin - I read abt this angbao guideline on the sunday times leh.. then the following monday i read the forum on straits times replying on this guidelines.. some people really jialat.. even commented that couples shld not expect guest to help cover the cost of the dinner if they cannot afford to hold their wedding dinner at posh hotels. There's 1 person commented that the amount of angbao he will give depends on how close he is with the couple. He can even give $20 angbao even if the dinner is held at posh hotels. Whoa, i feel like bashing this kind of person leh..

xiaohwa,
I think buying gold at this time is not worth it unless gold prices in future is like $60... So I rather just give her in cash (thou it's likely to be equally worthless in future due to inflation).
At least I dun have to worry abt where to keep it (safely)...
Back in my pri/sec sch days, gold was about 23-25 dollars, so gold is still affordable... Now I think it's just WAY over priced... But bo bian, oil price go up, gold oso go up. But when oil price drop, gold nvr drop leh...
