Hi mummies,
I'm so relieved that other babies are similar to mine.
RE: Solid
I went to Great world city today and checked out Organic store at B2. they had Organic rice cereal (label - Only and Earth's best),
Mummies, which brand do you use?
RE: eczema
my sister-in-law's baby has it on her face and she got it at baby care centre when my Sll had to go back to work. - Doctor told her that stress was the reason. my sister took some time off from work and took care of baby and getting better now.

Agnes,
I use Avent baby monitor for the audio - it's working very well with long distance, multi levels.
Also, I have wireless Video monitor - it's from Taiwan, no brand name. there is audio function but really not good quality, so I use only for video.

inya - for rich cereal i bought HT but havent let her try yet... currently feeding her with nestle white rice cereal... and also earth bests & healthy times purees. hee..
today i fed her butternut squash.. she seems to love it...
if u wana get organic purees, i think start with Earth's Best.. the packaging is smaller.. so less wastage as compared to Healthy Times

missycandy, oh must add warm water to the puree ah? I usually just take out the portion i require and place aside on the feeding utensil. Then i'll feed abt 10 min later so that it is not cold.. Coincidentally my mil was just asking if the jarred puree needed to be warmed out; she mentioned she used to heat them up for my husband in fact. hmm...
anyway, my son loves the Earth Best's apple. Trying out HT's sweet pea tmr though it says for 6 mths cos i can only find 4 types for Earth's Best so far: Sweet Potato (already tried), Carrot( bought, not tried), Apple (tried) and pear (bought not tried). Anyone seen other flavours for Earth's Best?

ann - talk abt bras... heart pain... i once bought a french brand bra for almost $150.. jus for the bra alone.. dunno hw come i psychoed into buying it.. argHX.. when HB heard the price, he hit the roof! and guess what? i cnt fit into it now.. LOL!
Missycandy, i checked out the organic shops like WIld Rice at Tanglin Mall and didn't see other flavours either leh. Wah, $150, i find it ex too haha!! Max i have spent so far is $90 and just one-off. Hmm, think i need to be nicer to myself 
Oh btw, do u feed purees before or after the milk feeds? I have been hearing opposite views... my pd told me to feed before but i actually feed after cos i'm afraid he will be too full after the puree to finish his milk?

annt, I use the sandwich method. Milk-puree-milk.
Works well for us

Ha, didn't know this was called the sandwich method! So do you feed a fixed amount of puree or based on her demands? With this method is she still taking the same amt of milk feed as before?
Anyway, i just came across this calculator which is supposed to tell you if your baby is getting enough nutrition once she is on solids but i realised my boy's milk feed is off the scale!!
http://www.babyzone.com/parenting/nutrition-calculator.asp
He is drinking 37 ozs a day and the selection avail is up to 35 ozs only! Er, any babies here drinking > 35 ozs. My baby is 5 mths 1 week old.

annt, I never follow a fixed amount for anything. Reason being that babies are humans too. It's hard to expect yourself to drink the same amount of juice everyday for example. Sometimes you'll want more, sometimes, you prefer to have more milk or other drinks. I think the same applies for babies.
That's my belief. It also depends on your baby's character, if he is the kind who likes structure or prefers to change it around a little.
Watch for their cues I guess!
How nice if each baby came with an instruction manual.

ya, should be sleeping but every night after oli sleeps, this is the only time i can catch up on the thread and my fb games... hahaha
oli likes most of the purees we gave him except for the HT baby sweet pea (ya, same as baby A)... i bought some jars from carrefour last week, not bad... theirs are organic too and they have potatoes with carrots, and potatoes with parsnips (it's radish actually)... oli likes the potatoes with parsnips, haven't try the potatoes with carrots but i'm sure he'll like it
Mr Chubby Cheeks is still Mr Chubby Cheeks... nowadays he likes to play with saliva, always making the bu bu sound like blowing a balloon, but instead he's blowing out all his saliva... very messy...

dear shopping mummies, where can I find the hanging bag organizer, the kind that looks like a scroll on the wall but has loops for you to hang 4 - 5 bags on it? I want to hang all my mummy bags on one of those but can't seem to find a BP on it.
night Annt!

There must be something funny with HT sweet peas then! Ok I'll try Carrefour thanks for the tip. I'll pop by in the morning if I can drag my ass out of bed in time
A is exactly the same. She also blows bubbles into her puree so my face is spattered with puree du jour all the time. Fun.
Let me know when you free to chat chat bout the e-mails and stuff.

mummies, Good morning!
I bot a BN cute duckie tub from WTS section for $22
While i know its not very practical, its really cute for BB to play.
missycandy:
Don't put BB food into microwave, bad for BB as it "kills" all the nutrients in the food. Place in container and user warmer or warm water to warm it is better
Applying to post in WTS section:
SEems like I'm not the only one which admin don't respond to. This is this thread in the forum with so many mummies writing in to ask for access, but no respond one...grrr...
