ST, how do u know if baby is teething? is it a lot of saliva or he's always putting things in his mouth?

she sucks her fist haha.
But just tried the pacifier just now as she had trouble falling asleep and it worked like a dream. Whoops.
Anyway mummies, am going to be at Marriott early as I better get out of the house before both of us fall asleep

forgot to complete my sentence, please call me if you are there early, i'm going to Tangs to browse 
st,
i think it's the milder 'jing feng san', for bb who always cry & wake up in the night, vomit milk. my mum told me, unless the bb is really got frighten, till the poo poo turn green then give jing feng san ..
My bb use to cry in the midnight during her sleep, after i gave her bao ying dan she can sleep so much better now .. all the way to morning.. I also gave her this when we had long travelling back to my hometown in msia.
oh ya, there's another good product of yu yan san that i bought. The 'zhen zhu fen', it can reduce the phglem for bb. In fact 'bao ying dan' also contain 'zhen zhu fen' but very little.

pumpkinseed,
you are not planning to have the dim sum right? Then can you still sit with us without incurring charges? I want to go to the gathering but am thinking of skipping dim dum cos my c-sect scar itches and have been advised to avoid all kinds of seafood, and dim sum stuff has a lot of prawns
boo hoo hoo

tuskywoolie,
Generally, I dun trust beauty salons.. Why dun u try exercising? Maybe go for low carb diet and see how it goes? My sister was once flabby and she nv touch rice nor noodles for a month and lost 7 kg. She also went regular jogging. I tried her method and lost 5 kg. But need to drink a lot of water..

Brought marissa for her 2nd dose of 5-in-1 yesterday. She weighs 6.6kg at 4 months. Guess she is also quite small size. Anyway with regards to what some of the mummies mentioned, marissa is also very kpo, she will be very distracted when we are outside, she will turn her head and look left and right, so its really hard to bottle feed her nowadays when we are out. I love to feed her when she is half awake, cause she will then drink very fast. I guess its a passing phase for babies to drop their intake of milk cause marissa went through that also when she was 3 months old. Occassionally now she will also not drink her milk and fuss. Very headache when she does that.
Mummies going for the dim sum buffet, enjoy ya!

Hi Daphne,
Which grinder you bought? I dunno whether to get a grinder or food processor, or just try with my blender first to make puree?

RE: Teether vs Pacifier VS thumb
My BB prefer her thumb/fingers/fist. She seem doesn't know how to use a teether yet... and she seldom want pacifier, but sometimes pop into her mouth can make her Zzz... Her fav is playing with diaper cloth or hankie. HaHa...

Hi mummies
Very upset today. Bb kyan is refusing my BM already. He is starting to take to FM.
This morning, we gave him frozen BM (as i was down with food poisoning hence there was no fresh bm to give) but he was crying the whole house down....so we switched to his favourite bottle but the result is the same.
Then i was taught a method by my fren to add in two scoops of formula to the frozen BM....but it did not help either...my boi still cried the whole house down. We also switched to his favourite bottle but it was no use.
So finally i told my mil to try with FM...he drank it all.
Feeling so upset. This behaviour has been incalculated in my boy since a month and more ago, where he has been very fussy over feeds. We wonder whats the problem so i got the teats all changed but it still doesn't help. Don't know if its milk problem until today i realised it could be he doesn't like BM at all?
Does that signal the end of my breastfeeding path?

hihi mummies,
mia for a while coz was so vexed over childcare arrangements for my little boy. need to return to work next week and my mil who's supposed to be the caregiver after my return suddenly tell us she can't cope alone. sigh, can understand coz my little boy's quite difficult to take care of alone since he always wants to be carried esp when sleepy. but only tell us 3 weeks before my return is so rushed. hb and me went around maid agencies and even signed a contract and selected one. then i freaked out... somehow tinking of a stranger taking care of my bb freaks me out, esp when i tot of how she might be nasty or turns abusive to my little one. backs out of the contract last week and since then was discussing with my boss on options. just decided and confirmed this week that i'm joining the SAHM ranks. much prefer to look after him myself though am very worried about our finances since this is not planned at all. also, can't do part-time work as suggested by boss as i tried out a few days by being away half day and my little boy is not taking well to it, he kinda "protest" by not sleeping and drinking well. disrupt all his usual nap cycles and even wakes up in the middle of night to ask me to play with him...upsetting too to see him rejecting milk and latching on like a koala bear for up to 2 hrs when i'm with him. finally decided that resignation is the only solution. now so worried about him during my notice period. wonders how both he and me is going to cope. i'm as attached to him as he is clingy to me leh. how should we both cope being separated? since delivery these 4 mths, i went out less than 10 times without him, only to see doc or buy stuff nearby. can't imagine a whole day at work without him, sob. sigh...my brain's running crazy this few weeks, worries here and there and thinking of all sort of stuff. sorry for the long post, just want to vent a bit.

Hi Kome & Missycandy,
Did u purchase the fast shampoo & cont?
I saw it is not Authentic?

pinksorbet, "sayang sayang" Why dont you try another time and see how it goes. Sometimes baby just gets fussy and naybe the next time you give him the bm, he would be fine. At times we can really get clueless on why baby behaves in certain way so we just have to trial and error. Hopes bb corporates with you and drink your bm ok, jiayou!
Sung, did you consider infant care? But if you are comfortable with being a SAHM, it would be great to see your bb grow up. You just need to discuss with your hubby and work out your finances and see how you all can manage. I am sure things will turn out well, take care ya!

thanks pinksorbet and vernice.
i felt it's worth it, it's always my dream to be SAHM to watch my kids grow up, just didn't expect so soon and not planned.
my notice period is 1 mth, boss said unlikely to let me clear much leave so got to finish one month but we'll c how when i'm back, hopefully can find replacement sooner so i can leave.

thanks sung, st and sportyger...haiz, no choice i gotta give fm if he still doesn't take it...even if i mix the fresh BM with frozen one he also doesn't like it...
I do hope i could give him BM till when he's at least 8months....
i don't feel good when bb is rejecting my bm when i need to lug my heavy and bulky fridge to go bag to the office onli to have to lug it back again with those bottles of milk, plus i have to find time for pumping...its really so heartbreaking if he rejects the milk...
i'll try again, thanks babes =)

asura - i usually will mix the fresh BM with the frozen ones...but cos this time since i'm down with food poisoning, there is no fresh ones to give...looks like if i'm sick, my boi either has to take frozen BM or jus go with FM...
