Suggest that you have to let go ... its a choice that she has to make and she has to bear all the consequences in future.
As much as we try to help and all ... its really her life. Just do what you need to do and let go ... not good to let it affect you so much =p

Cough and running nose: My son has had running nose and cough since last Monday. Worse is, we had inadvertently overdosed him on cough medication by almost 3x the dosage for 1 week bcos the careless nurse printed the wrong dosage on the label
. Be careful, mummies...

alfafa77,
The book did said steam the apple with skin to maintain max nutrition. Maybe it might be difficult or messy to cut and deseed a whole apple when it become so soft after steaming that why cut first??? Hmm... Ok, next time I try steam a whole apple.
sun,
Wow... yr id from 2003, Advanced Member!! I think those account before 15 November 2006 default can.
BTW, if no blender then maybe can try using fork to mash it. But I think only blender or food processor can make very smooth puree. I thought you bought Pigeon food maker set?

sun96, he didn't really put it straight to the point but he has been saying things like BF is so tiring, no need to continue for so long.. BB V hasn't been putting much weight, should switch to FM. Recently bb V hasn't been pooing well and he blame it on the BM that she's drinking coz I haven't been eating enough of fruits. He even offered my nephew's milk powder... I know he's trying to help but... I've put in so much effort in BF my girl, plus all nurses, docs, PD, articles I had come across say that BM is the best, I'm not going to give up BF that easily...

hair loss: There is a bp for hair loss products. Seems rather popular. Not sure if it works.

lizy, sunshine n breastfeeding moms. i'm so tempted to stop but not becos of others telling me to but becos i really want to sleep. so tired of milk dripping onto bed, stretch marks on my factories (sagging too! arggh!!!), blisters, etc. keep telling myself BM is best so must persevere. Lets persevere together! Jia You Jia You!
breastfeeding mums: Same here. There was a period of time of several weeks, where I continuously, consecutively and simultaneously got blocked ducts, swollen and bleeding nipples and I was so demoralised and tempted to give up, but persevered because BM is good for babies.
Anyway, I have almost reached my set target of 6 months, so going to stop soon. Can't wait!

I feel much better now after lunch, sigh...I really must learn to be less uptight about her. Anyway, managed to locate her again and find out what happen...nothing serious and is forgivable.
True, she has to learn to take responsibilities and face challenges...she's not my child afterall, there's only so much I can do. Thanks all for giving the chance to vent out here, it relieves my stress..really.

sun96: You have very cute icons!
I still have 2 weeks to reach 6 mths. But I have started to gradually reduce the amount I pump out each session.
Irene: Initially I was also thinking of whether to wait until he is 6 months old then reduce, but then we still need at least a few weeks to totally stop the ms. Wo hen lei le (I am very tired already). If I don't pump, each day can sleep at least 1.5 more hours. So I started to reduce even tho have not reached 6 months exactly.
scrumpee: That's good to know.

Milk powder
Our babies will be taking stage 2 of milk powder soon...have you all thought of any brands? Thought of continuing with NAN Pro2 but feel like changing to Enfalac as there's more DHA. Got a free can of Friso 2 too.

I've bought the Puri tea. Finished 1 box le, bowel movement was daily and I could feel the "load" off. I didn't weigh myself though
Milk Powder
I've got samples of Stage 2: Similac, NAN HA & Mamil Gold. Has been giving Friso 1, thought of continuing with Friso 2. Intend to try the samples but afraid the change may affect my boy.

Hi Sun,
mine is a Delonghi blender which I bought very long time ago at $60+ to make fruit juice. It's a white elephant until now becoming useful again. But hubby don't like it as it is very noisy. But powerful because can crush ice.
Personally, I think we only need blender to make puree for a few months and then baby will take porridge and more solid food so no need to buy too ex one

Nancy - avent has it
mangogal ...
Yes too stress cant let down ... ever happen to me once when I had my #1 ... so I went for lunch ... relax then come back to pump
So i usually bring in my HP and play game or look at photos of my 2 boys to distract myself.
Also I use boiling water to steralise the parts ... so I will insert the funnel last so that it acts like a warm compress - dunno if you understand what i mean.
Am going to start SH on solid soon too ... had a conversation with my fren the other day and we came to conclude that both our #1 started solid at 6mth and turned out both fairly fussy and not adventurous when it comes to food.
She started her #2 her 5mth and he is so much better and easier to feed ... so I decided to start SH this weekend ... hmmm got to take out my book to read and see what to feed him heehee
Ahhhh this means that my blender will need to work hard AGAIN ... I usually steam and blend everything on Fri and then freeze them and use for the whole week =p

sun 96 & mangogal: Ya. 200 ml is bottle feed. I suspect if direct latch on, he will take more, because after he finishes the whole bottle, he still wants some more. Sometimes he cries or fusses. There was once, after he finished the whole bottle, I carried him on my left arm and held the empty bottle in my other hand and was about to walk to the kitchen and he actually lowered his head and put his mouth over the bottle teat and want some more. -_-
scrumpee: Yep. Still sterilising bottles and pump parts.
mangogal: Was pumping about 200-210 ml per session. Reducing 20ml per breast. So now pumping about 170ml. When they are not so lumpy, then I shall reduce another 40ml. And so on.
Same! I always stare at my breasts when I pump to make sure got milk come out until several times neck ache. -_-'

donroxx.... same here... ugly stretch marks and very saggy factories.. my HB also commentted they don't look as nice as they used to...(*sob*)
lipstar, wah your boy can drink so much milk! My girl can only drink the most 120ml per feed. Try to give her more, she would push the bottle away... If I were to let her latch on, she would stop whenever she wants to. There were a few times, I tried to put my nipple back to her mouth after she pushed it away with her tongue, she bite me....

sun96: Ya. I also use single pump. When I pump one side, the other side use bra with breast pad to soak up the milk.
mangogal: You're welcome and I understand. I also get frustrated when I get blocked ducts. Same thing. Lots of milk stuck inside, but squeeze and squeeze can't come out. Very painful...
