asura,

whole point of any kind of method is that u can adapt it to your situation. i think if u try and force bb to really go the easy sequence when she is wired to go aesy it will be tougher on the both of u.

the online quiz is adapted from the original baby whisperer book (which i don't have). cos it's an online quiz they only generate one result, so if ur bb turns out to be a combination of different types they won't be able to tell you also. i think go with your instinct lah - if she obviously got a touch of spirit, then she is more than textbook, isn't it
happy.gif
i know my boy certainly has a big spirited component even tho the quiz also kept saying textbook.

talk abt mucous, he still got blocked nose from this bloody cold, which is disturbing his sleep in more ways than one. I'm dropping saline and picking mucous out (tried to suction - too thick!!!) - so as u can imagine his crankiness from tiredness seems to be permanently there, therefore lagi more susceptible to overstimulation and overtiredness = more likely to throw tantrum and resist sleep. *BIG BIG SIGH*
 
btw, whats ppls'' definition of sleeping thru the night? for me i think if bb can reach 7-8 hr feeding interval at night is already considered an achievement. I doubt bb's physiological make up at this age will allow them to go a 10-12 hr feeding interval.
 
Hi...sleeping thru e nite...onli possible for bbs who r well fed or hardly sleep in e day? Even as adults, not all can sleep thru e nite...

Sean Lau photography...itz good tat they offer us this promotion...personally i feel itz a bit pricey to select 5 images out of many in e package...wonder waz e additional top up for each foto...if not for e anne geddes slant, i wont commit to it...i hav checked e website...very few venture into bb artistic fotography so hard to compare too...h'r, i do wan his bbish moments to b captured so tat he will remember...

Do u all do stuff like footprints/handprints engraving? or make a calligraphy brush frm ur bb hair? I dint do all these so e foto deal shld b interesting for him...

im waiting for e dayz where he does not cry pain pain due to wind in his stomach...ani1's bb has wind in his stomach? Even if u give ru yi oil/gripe water? I do these on a regular basis but once or twice a day, still need to give him 1ml of pd's prescription of ridwind b4 he relaxes...my hb n i feel like docs leh...n e medication not exactly sweet tasting lor...but miraculously, he 'relaxes' after 10 min n feeding not a problem...so cham...so young need to b medicated...
 
Hi,

I can join for Ikea but can be earlier say 11 or 11.15am instead?

any mummies using NUK bottles? Do you find the flow slow? My girl take 30mins to finish her milk!

hi guys,
am feeling sick today.
sad.gif
troubling news from NTUC income as well re my FIL's case. Anway, saw the posting on baby photography. Funny that because hubby and I were just talking about baby photos a few days ago and I'm scouting for a good but reasonably priced one too.

Personally I think that Tomato Studio is better.
See here http://www.tomato.sg/main.html (go to the newborn section/mood) they are running a promo now at $250, one hour shot, soft copies only but expect 50 to 80 shots. I can't help feeling that the seanlau version of anne geddes is a little cliche-ish. No offense.

Check it out at the business thread. I'm most likely going for that.
 
<font color="ff0000">jasmine</font> - pm was down for the last 2 days. i replied ur email liaoz.

<font color="ff0000">pumpkinseed</font> - may i know the offer provide by world of korea?

<font color="ff0000">prosper, sun &amp; seabreeze</font> - u can still come lah...we r just trying to keep the gathering cosy only so that we can chat more.

sassy place:

1. vernice(Gina) n Joel
2. Kome(Yvonne) n Anver
3. sportyger(Yvonne) &amp; Marissa Ann

5. pinkdemoness(Daphne) &amp; Elixir

RE: photography
hmm so how? any1 wan withdraw frm sean lau list?feel free to tell me.. to me, im fine with whatever their styles is as long as they put their hearts in it. and most imptly , they are shooting our darlings..
happy.gif


vernice
can take bus 27? very fast one will reach ikea.
 
teddy - have replied u =) hee.

gatherings. we have a few upcoming. compasspoint by Jo, sassy's plc, expo motherhood fair, ikea tampines... also have sleep workshop &amp; IMM... wooo.... ya.. better go b4 i start wrk,... haiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
 
had a quick shower (body feeling hot one moment and cold the next aiiiiii) and came back for one last look...

realised my message might have come off as a little rude.

Apologies in advance to Queenie. Thanks so much for bringing this seanlau promo to our attention and for making the effort to track and collate. Contrary to how it seems I know it takes some effort esp when a newborn is in the picture. So Queenie, kudos to you! Likewise to pumpkin too for the sleepvworkshop. Just wanted to provide another option to fellow mommies here. :p

btw mommies,
if I take self medication i,e, take panadol for fever, can I continue BF_ing?

forgot to mention

(1) for the tomato studio promotion you need to book your slot by 30 May.
(2) re the Shangri la dining promotion (discount equivalent to the oldest diner at the trable) is only applicable on the birthday of that diner.

nite
 
oh ya. for motherhood fair. its usually quite good. have freebies as well.. lol. went for it last yr.. found it quite good. shld be better than the mother &amp; baby as well as newmom de... hope it lives up to my expectations... do let me knw if u all keen to meet up for lunch... =) so far have myself, pinkdemon, lenny &amp; queenie..
 
queenie,
heee just saw your post. *hugs*
just another option lah. Not collating or anything. Anyway I have a couple of queries for Tomato studio and am awaiting their reply. Just wanted to confirm that we can choose and take back 50-80 shots in soft copy, all within $250.

will keep you guys posted if you areinterested.

got to go. shag
 
hi alfafa...

was wondering where u hav been...do take care ya, esp u bfing Grace...
happy.gif


thks for e alternative fotographer u offer...well i kinda take advantage @ e offer suggested by Queenie...TOMATO is good too...guess itz really up to e individual...btw...seanlau a bit restrictive on e no. of shots kept in DVD...taz why initially w a price of $238, i hav my reservations...They take many shots but upon selection of e 5 images, only these 5 r put in DVD...e additional ones u need to top up...but if we get e deal @ $188 w same terms n conditions, itz a different story...

Oh btw, alfafa...
How many images does TOMATO allow us to select to put in DVD? For e promo price? To commit, they shld give us more to keep for e price...then we can develop more fotoz on our own...if u understand wat i mean...

ann...itz definitely time to upgrade to 2 holes in e teat for our bbs...i tried to upgrade e philips avent bottle to e larger one too but tink e flow a bit rushed so still use e smaller version...if suck too slowly, milk gets cold, not cold for bb...
happy.gif


hi momz, is it true tat milk bottles can only last 2-3 mths? After this period, one should change? Wat do we do w e used bottles? Recycle? Thks...
happy.gif
 
so alfafa,

reading frm ur post, u mean we can select 50-80 images to put in DVD for e price of $250? Raw ones or w editing?

thks...if by qty alone, it sure surpasses seanlau...but we oso need to see e creative element...n taz highly personal n subj...
happy.gif
 
basic editing.

so mommies, anyone knows if I can take panadol and still BF? Won't affect baby? Am hoping to take some before I go to zzzzzzzz
 
alfafa
oh dear. i guess u might have catch a cold. take some vit c if u have it ard ur house .. tt time i was sick too, feeling very uncomfortable coz still got to bf tristan.
nah, im ok with ur views..
happy.gif
don worry!
actually i didnt really do much about this seanlau promo. coz is my frd told me abt it. so i tot of sharing with u all here.
do update us on the tomato package as well when u rec any updates frm ur side ok? TIA!
 
alfafa
oh juz saw the thread - tomato photography u posted.. must take the shoot in june or july.. thats too fast for me. coz i prefer to let tristan take shoots only when he able to sit on his own.. if not maybe i will also queue up for tomato. haha.
 
<font color="119911">pinkdemoness </font>,
my supply (this 2nd preggie) is also not gd but I kept telling myself , no matter how low is the supply and tired, i still want to bf my boy to 1 yr old cos last time, I bf my gar till 1yr1 wk also. so I just kept pumping every 3hrly for the first 2mth. milk is miserable. now even have not reached 200ml yet. I envy those who can pump 400-500ml per session...wow...eye blinking man....wodnering do they felt engorge man to have so much milk in their b?

anyway, u try yr best liao. afterall, giving fm is still not bad...except ex only....

<font color="119911">Kome</font>,
my gar also jealous when my mum attended to no#2. she will do all kind of unusual thing which make us wanted to cane her. now, she not so jialat but still will throw temper. dunno yr no#1 will go and disturb bb despite telling him/her not to do that? my gar does...so almost every day, she will get scolding or beating.

my gar fell sick after 1 wk attending ccc. she has fever, running nose and cough. now, sitll got cpugh with phelgm. also duuno ccc dirty or what, today, part of face, legs and hands got red patch and mosquito bit. ai-yo...

huh,,,blame on bm...got like that one meh....mum not supporting bf...last time, my mum also like that...which make me pek chek. even throw my 3 full bottles of bm away and said yellowish - spolit. ai-yo, i felt so heart pain throwing my precious ebm man....but now, tough she is not 100% support tbf but at least show improvement. y'day, my no#2 also got a slight cough wiht phelgm. think kana fr his je jie. think yr no#2 also kana cough fr his kor kor loh.


<font color="119911">Pups</font>,
haa..so u intending to tbf till when? I will 'tong' till bb 1 yr old. hope, the boat will sail smoothly when came to the bridge...haa...
 
<font color="119911">agnes,

<font color="0000ff">sorry mummies.. not active here so far past few days... my 3rd boy fell when bathing together and hit his head... a cut at his eye area in between eyebrow.. blood was oozing out and side eye all swollen -went to GP.. was refered to KK..as the GP did not have the tissue glue to glue the scar so came back after midnite yest.. was at KK frm 9 plus pm till then - doc recommended stitches as gash was so near to eye area - but another doc said he just did a bb whose wound was nearer to the eye and it worked... so off we go instead of stitching . boy was wrapped up and held down by two docs whle we waited o/side - my boy hates being gripped so we can hear hi wailing amongst babies who had bruises on the eye - broken arms / leg kiddos....unable to wash his face for a week.. but he is still wanting to peel off the hardened glue on the scar - which we are trying so hard not to let him do so... pray for me it will get well soon!!</font>

Hello mummies....

Yup been busy with both joe and baby... Well Since CL ( extended her for 3mths) I have been taking care of ugin myself basically although joe is in town and can have an extra helping hands.. But sad to say he can be a hindrance most of the time... Haiz .... I dun wish to comment infront of him giving the fact that he has been away while ugin is growing up with different behaviours( only the care takers knows better), he's a 1st time parent ( me too),he's a man(ego) and with a bad eyesight ( older man kinda), gang cheong, oh He can take like more then 3-5 mins to prepare a bottle...(lucky it's a top up) Urrrgghhhh at that situation.....I just gave him a sarcastic smile poor ugin has to wait with his best friend ( pacifier) in his mouth staring blankly at me( thinking what am Waiting?????)...ugin cam only sllep inmy arms.. Coz joe has nit master the art of carrying a vaby...so basically I have to HANDLE ugin which is as good as being along... Well then I think again that since joe is often overseas.. It's good that I practice independently on ugin.. Otherwise I rely in anyone I will suffer... But I also need a break... Haiz... Although all of that... Joe is a wonderful hubbu cum daddy.... Hehehe so that does helps to eliminate all the bad parts hahagha....


IDA
Yup
Hope your son Gets well real soon

Alfafa
Geesssshhh... Hard on you gal.. Pls take care and yes paracetamol is fine to consume while BF... Try to relax too..hugs
 
Opposss sorry mummies alot of typo errors... Using my mobile phone to surf online ( portable) and In The dark tapping onto the keypad ...(fat fingers) At the sametime sometimes changes my meaning of words.... Hard on you ladies..

Carrier
Yeah my carrier piikolo has arrived... Can't wait to see it haha.. Thanks again for helping with the purchase alfafa. Pls check account by sat night.. Will transfer to you while I am at thomson plaza....

Playmat
Efficiency.... Called them in the evening and they delivered to me within 2 hours hahaha.... I got the alphabet pooh 2300x1400x15mm ( apparently the thickness is good enough)
Think it's that of sassy's place kinda.

Do let me know if you are interested....PM me..


MissCandy
When is the mothercare expo ??? Interested to attend....
 
Afcai
Me too... My milk supply is not fantastic too... Every pump session will be about 190-220ml max only... I only pump 3 times a day...so in the day I will give ugin the EBM and night with FM... That way I can satisfy both ugin's meal and my milk supply... I am hoping to provide BF for at least 6mths... If it continues to produce milk I will latch him on but dun think will pump further after 6 mths...
 
<font color="119911">afcai,
the exchange is usuali at bb fairs n sales. the last one was at isetan sale in feb or mar. usuali take bb fair will have, got to look out fot it in newspaper.</font>
 

alfafa
i love tomato's shots.. so nice.. but then like wat emily has mentioned, to be used in june n july is abit too rush le.. if is able to extend till when bb is able to sit tat will be nice.. but will discuss with hubby to see which one to take.. so as for sean lau pls put me under KIV... thks..
