EMQ: I totally agree with what you say. For now, I let hubby deal with his parents as we don't live together. But I know the day will come where we will live with either parent or both his parents. Hubby and I have an agreement that when 1 leaves, we will take care of the other by having them live with us. For now, his sis lives with them. So the day will come where I will have to speak to them on issues, especially when it comes to Jon. I hope that by then I will have mellowed and am able to deal with things better by looking at the big picture as opposed to picking on every little thing they do wrong.
thanks samval and ange, yupyup ange, we muz meet up once my bond is over! counting down to 3 weeks!
yeah I also got PIL issues.. always get hubby to talk to cos they dun listen to me.. but sometimes I cant help myself from speaking hehe.. but they nice lah.. just that dun listen and have their own ideas. Good thing my hubby is very supportive to me.

mercs: kyan also too shortie for the jumperoo. so i put a cushion for him, so that he wun touch the cold floor with his bare feet, also easier for him to jump...
sus: when kyan was about 4 months (2 weeks ago), he was also not interested in milk. try prolonging the hours loh. instead of 3 hours timing, i will drag to 3.5 hr to 4 hr. den i will see if he is hungry... sticking out his tongue, etc...

Sus: my girl 4mths 1wk & started the feeding problem from after jab. Normally she can finish 150mls but now drop to 90 ~ 120mls. PD ask me to monitor if she totally refuse to drink than bring her to check.
Samval: I not able increase my girl intake leh, base on age & weight @ 8.11kg so she require to drink 210mls. But she refuse & can't force her.

sus: im not sure.. i have just started cayden on rice cereal based on pd advice so far hes enjoying it..
from pd's point of view, adding rice cereal into milk n slowly increase the amt of cereal is to get him accustomised to the taste and accept food other than just milk.
hope to see u soon after 3 weeks
ni: haha so cute.. i think i must ask hb to increase the height of jumperoo for cayden.. one of his feet seems to be on the ground liao leh.
mercs: anyway hes supposed to tiptoe in jumperoo lah.. not whole feet on ground

blessedmum: my MIL started brayden on rice cereal sometime ago. she put one teaspoon into the BM.
he looks ok drinking.

Samval: Yours is slightly different & I'm sure much more challenging la... but you've already done a great job by having her for such a long time! In your case perhaps, it's telling yourself not to be upset by MIL... keep a positive mindset & not let yourself go into depression.

pluf: Lok Yang is not very far from my workplace.
my bb is going to be 4.5mths on this sat.
blessedmum: ya got increased the milk amount.
MIL and I were discussing, we decided to feed him cereal from spoon when brayden turns 5.5mths. Main idea is spoonfeeding & swallowing.

cheekygal, i wish i can go down today too, but lok yang is way too far for me. Not sure if there is anything left by sat.
Emq/Ange, i also have some inlaws issues at times but generally i am thankful that my kids are at their plc daily and they helped to supervise the maid (although not the entire day as they go out all the time). This weekend will be bringing them out for lunch to thank them for lookig after my children. but of cos, sometimes mil can be irritating like insist i must take my boy to see doc today cos of his cough but how to do it when i am working and i cant take urgent leave all the time.
kelly, our items have been shipped and Vpost having 15% discount!!! yippee! btw, did u leave an avent bottle cap at my plc. I have 1 extra at home now.

RE: Baby milk intake
Feeding my baby now is really a chore. He will always drink 50 ml and want to play....feeding him takes much longer now, however he can finish up to 180ml per feed every 3-3.5 hours. Thus i believe his appetite increased just no longer that interested in milk already.
RE: Cereal
I read the baby centre and said that never never introduce solids to baby before the baby reaches 4 month (end of 20th week). My baby is still at his 19th week, thus i think i will wait till when he is at least 24 weeks.

sus: *sayang you*. u have gone thru so much for sake of breastfeeding. salutes to u.
cheekygal/gelato: thanks for the care.. surgeon attributes to just a bad breast.. not very encouraging huh? I ask her massage can help a not.. she says cannot as its right at the top.. but she also says good job not giving up bf despite all this lah.. so got encourage a little bit
gelato: yar babies differ .. Cayden's older 4 mths 3 weeks liao... can drink up to 200ml per feed... *faint.. thank goodness cayden is back to 5 feeds per day liao, abt 960ml in total..
ashley: its min 4mth, not advisable to start earlier than that.. but it depends on ur pd advice bah, each bb is different.. some can start to wearn bit earlier, some can wait

daymoon: thanks for posting the pic of u-like. I'll prob try to get it during lunch time. hehe.
dazed: haven't gotten your hp number and addy yet. can either pm me, or email to me lah. I was thinking if I can go to your house earlier, say fri night. then we can have the weekends free with our babies.
pluf: wah, u really dote on your baby. so many toys already and you still gettingmore...wah really makes me feel guilty. my hb worked very near lok yang, but doubt he'll go on his own. hmph... I also hope to go down myself to take a look..yah, sat will be super crowded and not much left hor.
sus: hey, i also have the prob of feeding my boy. he's so easily distracted nowadays, turn here turn there, and his hands always push the bottle away. must be very patient with the feeding. there's a tip that my mum used. while he sleeps, and when he stirs a little, just sticks the teat into his mouth. never mind that he's sleeping, cos he'll still suck at the bottle. my mum feeds him hourly, or 2 hours, then he can sleep longer. easier to feed also. but more work lah, cos every hourly, got to prepare the milk...

gelato: U are also petite like me right? I am sending my carrier to alter as its too long for me.. Caleb is too low when I carry him.. think i will add hooks to shorten it by 3 inches each side.. dunno if u will have the same problem. but its easy to use and i think its worth the trouble and Caleb seems to like it more.
gelato: my bb is a big bb from birth leh..
sus: really salute u man..next time gy must tell caleb how much pain and trouble his mum went thru..from preggie till now.. not easy woh
kamy: how r u!!? my bb also fussed during eating.. i gotta change his venue sometimes in order to finish feeding him
