I am still still using bb detergent to wash Bree's clothes
teddybaby:: i have been using the normal type ever since she was 3 months old. but we never wash the bb with the adults. Her bath towels, clothes etc, are always washed together with her brother's. adult ones are washed separately.

teddybaby,
Avocado, I gave one tablespoon for the first time. added a little bit of BM (to make it thinned puree). my BB couldnt finish it for the first day. Gradually increased amount and less BM... on 4th day (Im on 4 days rule), she finished 2 tablespoon!!!!

Re: ikan bilis
I long time no go home, but I think u have to soak it for damn long and then rinse it multiple times until the salt used in its preservation is gone before grinding and using it in porridge for bb. Think also depends on the type of ikan bilis.
Vernice,
Diff sources gonna say diff times abt when to best intro whatever / how to make it and store it / what is safe. Think got to weigh them out and then do wat is most comf for u. Each bb also gonna be diff so u have to play it by ear wif urs too. No 2 bb's weaning is gonna be the same one

vernice80,
I echo what areya says. There's really no hard and fast rule for weaning. Do what u think is most common sense and acceptable for your bb. for me, as long as there's nothing negative/harmful of the item, i shall not bother too much else it would only cause me more convenient.

alfafa,
Paiseh for the late reply.. Anyway, before i start.. super irritated... i was half way through my long long reply to u.. and my stupid computer went to next screen and all the stuff i typed disappear!!!! Okok.. to save myself from such problems again. AM going to reply in piecemeal.. grrrr...
To start, i shall list out the problems i have encountered during my trip in US.

To start, i shall list out the problems i have encountered during my trip in US.
Alfafa,
Here's the first of my problem series...haha
Problem 1: Discomfort in Bassinet
BB refused to sleep in the bassinet cos the stupid UA one was like a sarong and she dont like the feeling of being warped up. Really terrible cos she din sleep for the entire flight. But on my return trip, she managed to sleep like an angel on the empty seat next to me. Which is wonderful cos dont even need to pick her up when there is tubulence. I hope that ur bb is able to sleep on empty seats.. really better than bassinets. Oh yah, u might want to check the length of the bassinet cos bassinet is meant for up to 6 mths old. If bassinet is not long enough for Grace, u would have to carry her the whole trip...that would be most unfortunate. In that event, pray that ur flight is not 100% full and request for them to give u an empty seat. They are quite accomodating when there's a bb.
Problem 2: Toilet Break
Travelling alone with bb.. how to go toilet? For my journey there, i actually wore her in my carrier and go abt doing my business. On my return trip, she was sleeping too soundly so i wait for all cubicles to clear and ran to toilet. Quite safe lah.. there were passengers beside me to help me look out for her. u can ask the air stewardess for help.
Problem 3: Ear pressure
Landing and taking off may be uncomfortable for bb. Good thing bb C takes after me, falls asleep for most of the landing and taking off so i dont have any issue. But i plan her meal times such that it is time to latch her ard landing/taking off time so that in the event she fusses, i would just latch her on.
Ok.. i got to stop here for now.. pumping time is over soon and i got to get back to work. Back later with 2nd series of problems encountered.... Akan Datang!

good morning mummies!
missycandy, no lah, i cannot claim credit for calling back the mummies
everyone made effort to keep the thread alive!
vernice, ya, i agree with asura... i will read whatever in the link posted here, but will use it as a guide only. cos different baby has different development, even different PD advise differently. most importantly is what's comfortable for you. dun get embroiled into such problem and make motherhood such a chore for you. all of us should be enjoying motherhood and take pleasure for being able to do something for our babies
alfafa, yes, do check the length of the bassinet. i think grace will be too tall for the bassinet and hence will be very uncomfortable for her if you put her in the bassinet.

November got 2 long weekends leh and one after another somemore. buahahaha... Can't wait for it to come.

Re: Gymboree
Wanted to post this yesterday but was too busy. After attending sat's gymboree, I find that the babies will probably enjoy more when they are able to crawl becos they are limited to certain activities only as they cant crawl yet. Would actually advise to go later if you have not signed up. Personally still prefer kindermusik now after comparing the two.
Re: bb clothes
I am still using bb detergent to wash her clothes as I kiasu hehe.
Asura,
Marissa enjoys the pumpkin puree you passed me. She slurped it up for dinner that day.

Porridge:
Thanks mommies for ways of making porridge...
I didnt put salt, or put ikan billis coz rem Mrs Wong mentioned ikan billis drying process is not hygienic n full of salt. I didnt puree the porridge coz my boy likes thick gruel when he eats his cereal. Will try a few more times...
Gymboree
I agreed with sportyger. Personally prefers Kindermusik but will only sign up when Andrique is much older.
MIL
haha...tot i'm the only one with MIL problem. My MIL SUPER ONE kind. Even her own son cant stand her. HAHAHAHA... at least my husband stand on my side.
Washing BB Clothes
Still wash Andrique's clothes separately with BB detergent. Bought alot during sales can use for quite sometime.
Kome
u take care too. Anver's fever abit too long, did the doc do a thorough check up for him? Hope he recovers soon!

late good morning to you all!..
so boring at work..haiz.. came in here to have a breather and eat 'snake' for a sec or so.
Tot of changing job..but bonus still round the corner..so im still trying to stay put. Keen to join public sector leh..but so far no news. Who are the mummies here from public sector. I know mangogal is...who else?
Thanks Dianajs..for your blender recommendation. Will check it out at courts when i go to toa payoh this friday. I think a hand held blender is better eh?
Last night baby Hong Yi also wakes up at 3plus crying with eyes shut. I suspect he's teething. Intitally to he wanted milk but after i made, he didn't want to drink. went without milk til 8plus in the morning. last feed was 12plus. Usually he'll drink milk at 5plus or 6am.
Applied teething gel for him and he fall asleep.
