Hi Nancy,
Just to share, feeding bb medicine via syringe is the best. just tilt the bb's head backwards and get another adult to hold the bb still, aim and inject 2 or 3 intervals into bb's inner mouth close to throat. usually works for me
Try to catch your bb by surprise, no time to reject it
just sharing... coz it works well for my 2 babes.

i have stopped using syringe cos i think my boy got traumatised by it. to the extent that there was a period where he got paranoid whenever i put him in my arms to feed him milk cos he tot its medicine time again! what i practise now is mix it with some plain water and feed using a bottle. works for me. good luck!

thanks for the advice on the cream, Dentinox works with my BB!
My bb loves Avocado and ate a lot !!! strange she doesn't take apple & banana much... only a few teaspoons. also funny thing is that she sleep through the nite when I give avocado hah hah
Also, she showed the brand preference on the cereal. loves Earth's best, doesn't like ballamys. funny.... Any BB like that?

Heya Everyone! Hubbie, Baby and myself has safely reached Texas. 28hours with a baby is no joke. Hub n i hardly slept. Baby was all good til the cabin lights were dimmed and he went nuts. crying, fussing, screaming for 3 whole hours. Felt so sorry for the other passengers.
US customs seemed more relaxed compared to last yr. they allowed 6 full baby cubes, 2 bottles of baby meds and 100ml of water in his bottle (100ml is allowed).
Baby is how happily screaming and ripping magazines on the hotel bed. My turn to shower now. happy happy!
Asura, the weather was warm when i landed just now. sg shopping center was cooler loh haha.
Pumpkinseed, i'm in texas now. will be in la on monday. figuring out how to burn time in texas =P

Lenny,
Ok lah. He is on this diet cos my mil makes the lunch soups for him. I only ask for different tastes/textures so he gets used to a variety instead of the same/similar thing everyday. U know grandmas lah-see bb like something will keep giving the same thing.. The change to asian food will be for the same meal when it's my mum's turn. Otherwise morning fruit and afternoon cereal will remain pretty much constant..

Missycandy,
Eh i only now noticed in ur post the cost of the hipp formula, and nearly had a heart attack. It is about £9 here in a big supermarket. But not a lot of ppl here like to give hipp formula so i guess price reflects the demand..
Actually i did the same as u a few weeks back cos the formula he usually takes tastes and smells like rotten cheese. Then the other 2 major brands i tried also smell awful and worse, were so bubbly he was producig more foam as he drank and also swallowed lots of air! So it's now back to the original one he was on. at least it's not gassy
Think it's just me not liking the smell of the milks ba..

thanks minnie, irene, mango, lenny, fireangel, thanks for all your prayers and well wishes *mummy group hugs*
speaking of foodie, went to 4seasons GWC yday also, they're having promo starting yday to 30Oct for all the baby food items (except fresh food like apples etc). I picked up some jar food and packet purees for lazy days. Keenan is eating well, hope to plump him up after the 200g weight loss

starflower, what promo are they having?
For those interested in Aden&Anais muslin cloths and sleeping bags, can go to LFE to check them out. They're huge muslin cloths, extremely soft and light. Lovely prints too. Multi-use but my fave usage is to throw over the car seat or stroller hood to shade from sunlight. Breathable still as it's very thin and 'holey'

wishaboy, I am going to Paris again in Dec, date unconfirmed. But not sure if I can shop again this time. Shopping during Christmas time is mad. People are packed body to body like sardines.

donroxx, oh are you there for vacation? 28 hour flight wow, kudos for managing it!
asura, good idea to let baby drink the water. SO far, I have reused the water to make the puree.

erm i dun tink shooting the syringe with med into baby unaware is a gd method... it might traumatize them... you can try use the small medicine cup to feed bit by bit... if not then mix with milk... holding them still will be a challenge at this stage.. they wiggle like wormsss!!!! tough tough tough! might also choke on the med...

Pinkdemoness,
think bb Elixir is 3 days difference with Bree on their birthday..
about the purees form jars.. its actually ok to serve it direct.. cos our breast milk temperature also about the same.. If u prefer, u can warm it as well.. when its rainy outside, i transfer a portion out into baby cubes then warm it before i give it to Bree.. i don't add water into it else its too watery..
currently, i am feeding bree on her semi-solids twice a day. working to increase her food a little every 3 - 4 days depending on how she adapts.
1. 11.00am - sweet potato / baby rice cereal mixed with EBM then plus vege puree
2. 5.30pm - 6.00pm - bb rice cereal mixed with EBM plus fruit puree..
apart from these, i am still lacthing on breastfeeding at:
1. 7.00am
2. 11.30am - after semi solid
3. 2.30pm
4. 4.00 - 4.15pm
5. 7.00pm
6. 10.30pm (sometimes - depending on how much Bree takes in for her semi-solid dinner)
Enmum,
Yep.. i am still breast feeding

sunshinebb,
oh ok.. but i dun have taka discount card.. sort of cancelled .. too many cards.. i don't know if taka discounted prices are really discounted? really lost touch liao..
re: c-sect..
i went thru c-sect.. pre-csect.. i didn't prepare much cos it came to me suddenly that i have to c-sect..
Post c-sect..
must take care, cos wound recovers slower than natural birth.. i was advised to avoid seafood for at least 3 mths..
i avoided it totally cos of bree's eczema, she is on TBF so cannot take..
there are days that i broke the rules.. so punishment is... i end up having itch around the wound and bree's skin got flared up..
after c-sect.. really need to rest well.. if ur gf wants to bf.. better do it lying down.. cos i did it sitting up with a breast feeding pillow initially.. its really painful when pain killer wears off.. i "key Kiang" try to avoid pain killer so can feel the weight pressing down..
next day after c-sect.. must try to get down and walk.. think her gynae will advise her on the precautions.. no need to worry so much..

Pre-c-sect
I opt for c-sect. Think the pre c-sect is abt the same as normal delivery.. No food (forgotten how long b4) before surgery. Nurse prep me for surgery ie make sure pubic area n tummy is clean shaven. Ask if i clear bowels or not...
Post c-sect
Gynae make me walk the next day.. Nurse say wear binder, can walk.. With binder not painful for me. of coz that's subject to one's pain threshold. Like all the mommies say, pls refrain from seafood for 3months. I din shower the next day, Just got a wipe down by the TMC nurse.. BF ok for me.
