today's newspapers - Tangs selling Maclaren Techno XT at only $299!!!!!!!! *faints*
but they indicate "limited pieces".
i wondered how many they're selling at $299.
better quickly go and grab.
 


DK:
I used cooled boiled water. Nothing visible stick leh, but then again this method is taught to me by that stupid CL and my MIL also does that. Think I will take sandy's advice and use sterile gauze or clean cloth that has been boiled in hot water previously.

thesimz:
phew! I tot u wanted a divorce leh! okok good that it is a joke

Oh.. my PD said no need to clean the tongue. He mentioned that dentist only wants us to clean the teeth, never the tongue.

Mrs Wong from TMC also said the same thing. Her concern is bacteria might transmit to the tongue if we use an unclean medium to clean it. Which will caused baby not able to drink. That's also the purpose why we sterilised the milk bottle.

But then.. there's always different sch of thought.. =)

Side track a little.. I'm glade it's fri!! 2days to spend with my baby!!!
 
the simz, ya lor theres different views..my pd says the milk stains on tongue can encourage bacteria growth thats y must clean n use gauze cos its sterile
 
SY> The motherhood fair selling Nepia at $14 per pack instead of the usual $17 (as indicated there) wonder if it helps u ?
 
bb tongue: as i'm on antibiotics again last week, bb got oral thrust again.
sad.gif
gave him the same medicine.

went for 2nd vacc jab on thurs. bb had fever on the 1st and 2nd day. gave medicine and temp is down.

bb profile at 3 months 3 weeks:
w: 7.1kg, l: 61cm, hc: 42cm.

happy.gif

his weight has dropped from 97% percentile to 75%. dont know to be happy or not. :p
but have been putting on weight fine.
 
Spent a bomb yesterday!!! ;p

I went to motherhood fair yest too. Not as crowded as I expected. We tried both Ergo and Beco carrier. Hubby no preference. But I like Beco coz it has a feature whereby we can transfer baby to another person while baby is still in the carrier. Beco is also prettier lah.

Bot a Kate Spade baby bag too..... :-(

In the end keep "complaining" to baby that Mummy spent so much $$$ on him. hehe ;-)
 
bbpower
never met u before but yesterday i also there. if met u before should have seen u hehe.

me also spent a bomb. sign up the photo package with seanlau(sign only 5 photos), bought avent manual pump so i can pump outside, bought a nuk bottle, bought a nursing cover. i think i really need to nurse until he is 1 yr old to make my purchase worthwhile.

SY
need to order the nepia in order for the exchange of seal? anyone of u tried the L size already.. wondering how many inside.
 
zekevon...
Alamak...so RA lay the photo....very shy looking at it...hahah

Re:Maclaren Techno XT
Woah Jas... $299 lay....woah woah....think i too late liao
I am sure that Hb sure don want to drive me there one. Booboo..

Re: Motherhood Expo Fair
I went to yesterday night after work ...but i think i am a lousy shopper lay. Besides signing up for the motherhood magazine, i don see or bought anything at all.

Re: Baby recognising Location
Yesterday was terrible!
After chionging to Expo, picked baby up at 9 plus (way past his bedtime oso). Once he stepped into our flat....cry and Cry and Cry and Screammmm... non-stop.
It happened last week too but the crying yesterday was more marathon lor.
The disppointing thing is....after like 30 mins of non-stop crying, i ask maid and hb to make milk as i was holding him....then both came back and say waiting for e water to boil subsequently maid proceeded to sweep the file while hb just
kept following me around, giving me the disapproving look and kept grumbling that i should not have gone shopping and brought him home so late.

i had to then put the baby down, go to the fridge, take out a FEBM and dropped it into the slightly warm yet unboiled water.

woah liew, what i want to vent is , if u want to do the blaming game, solve the problem first lay, then later we talk about it. instead, hb just kept following me ard giving me that stoopid look and grumbling...

Was disappointed cos he should noe how to handle such situation beta than me mah cos his job nature also like that one. wah liew.

And the thing is cos the baby find our flat foreign that was why he cried mah.....woah liew
 
BBPower: cannot BF when I'm having antibiotics. so gotto pour away 3 days supply. but i realize this oral thrust always come after 1 week i have antibiotics. 2 occurences liao.
 
lonerunner:
yah, read abt tat too... so was thinking if i can pump out 50ml, then she must be drinking abt 50x2+~20=120ml? haha...

i'ching:
pmed u liao...

peachmomo:
glad tat all is well wif u and ur parents now...

tongue cleaning
some said dun clean and some said clean... i cleaned for a while, then became too lazy liao... recently saw her tongue, surprisingly quite clean leh... was oso taught to clean using sterile gauze and cooled boiled water... anyway, e gauze very cheap - abt $3 for 100 pcs...
 
haha thks for the comment on the pic
happy.gif

zekevon:

Hi Mummies,

I am a silent reader and cant help when i read about the post on tounge cleaning part.
I myself notice my bb having some 'white' stain on the tounge some time ago. I was taught by a caretake to let bb drink water after every feed.
Well, mine doesnt drinks, he plays with the teats but at least there are some water going thur, the idea is to rinse his mouth after every feed to rinse off the milk stain that causes the white stuff on the tounge.

My bb is on TBF and although some mothers do not think its necessary for them to drink water but i guess it better than having foreign objects in the mouth.
In fact, my bb's stain wears after about a week plus.

Just my 2 cents worth, hope it helps.
 
Halo mummies,

so long didn't post oredi.... been busy wif my gal... hope all mummies is fine!!!

just to update... my gal is 6.4kg on 12 feb (3 months)and length 60cm... doc said she is 90 percentile.. which means overweight... haha...

hi yaer: i also consider kiddy academy before. like not bad. but since i shifted, changed my choice of infantcare.
happy.gif

hehe, my old place is at simei blk 112, it is like next blk only. :p

BBPower: it does help for us first time mummies to have someone experience to provide some advices. so far, the infantcare do manage to highlight some things to us.
happy.gif
somemore they do frequent temperature monitoring, so anything happens to baby also can detect earlier.
the other thing i "ah Q" abt is that with infantcare, i'm not changing my in-laws/parents life too much that they have to give up their job/freedom. :p also hopefully with infant, we will have less conflicts.
happy.gif
