To all mummies whom gave FM to baby? once we start cereal, we need to change the FM to No 2 right???

hi papaya,

went to robinson on sun... but concentrated on NUK and pigeon only - 20% off... others were "out of my eye range" keke.. cant help...
 
KP: Do you carry the California baby range of insect repellant for infants? Izit Save to use for a 6 month old baby?

I would like to go to the bbq and see all the nice mummies and babies, what time does it start? My baby gal goes to bed at 7.30pm..
 
Hi mummies

Kidzloft just replied me on the safety gates. The prices they offered me are the same as those stated in the web. =(

They only have 3 designs left. Mummies, if you are interested, can go to their physical store at Tagore lane to take a look.

www.kidzloft.com

SF41817 (Easy-Fit Security Gate)= 17pcs ($59.90)

NS8615(Super Gate III) = 65pcs($49.90)

NS 4630(Stairway Swing Gate) = 48pcs.($39.90)
 
By the way, the last time, I went there, they have this clearance corner which had some pretty good buys at a few dollars only. E.g Safety corners by Safety 1st, Nail care kit, etc. You can go there and see if got time.
 
<font color="aa00aa">Leereiner,what i feel about your table:

1) Too early introduce meat
2) I thought 1st feed must be milk?
3) Dont have the 3 days same food rule</font>
 
<font color="aa00aa">who else haven't start bb on semi solids? I havent start yet even though my bb was born in mar ,keke.Going to start this sat

Very exciting!</font>

Ya Rose, same thinking as you lor, the basic 3 rules are not in leh, maybe suit the "ang moh side"... Mine is mar baby too... just started him on 20 Sep.... is your baby on BM or FM? mine already on 2 times FM, 4 times BM... and PD said we gotta start on soild since not putting on much wt...

even egg is intro in the 7-9months range, tot only egg white 1st... ??

so maybe using the idea inside the book instead... like what combination of puree to do...

meal planner sent to LovJ
 
Leereiner, I thought egg yolk before egg white? coz egg white protein very hard to digest shld introduce after 1 yr. Egg yolk rich in iron good for supplement after 6 to 7 months.
 
<font color="666600">chocz: Alamak. I bought mine from cold storage last fri. Tot it's already cheaper than Drypers DryPantz. Think I'll go NTUC n buy a few more packs to stock up! Thanks for the info.</font>
 
KP >> you still have calendula cream?? i need another 2 tubs.. lemme know!! Thanx gal!!

i have not start on solids for my boy.. he not sitting up still.. plus his flip not a complete flip.. can go from tummy to back but not vice versa...=(

leereiner can i also have it excel please?? [email protected]
Thanx thanx!!!
 
eviangal,
sorry for the late response, now I don't logon to the forum so often after returning to work. Will collect from you this weekend if possible, thanks!

pravina,
don't worry, I think yours is a late Apr baby right. My girl just managed to flip to and fro about 2 weeks back.
 
<font color="0000ff">Leereiner:</font> Can email me spdsht 2? [email protected]. Btw last Fri PD told me 1st cereal, dan single veg, dan fruits &amp; meat -- agn intro single item per meal 2 c if bb got allergy or nt. &amp; yes, muz pace few days apart so we can observe carefully...

<font color="119911">Rose &amp; Pravina:</font> I hvn't intro solids 2 Sebastian either. Waiting 2 more wks. So now he's stl fully bf directly (EBM if I nd 2 leave him home w other carer).

<font color="ff6000">LovJ:</font> Sebastian slps thru nite &amp; may ask 4 1 fd some x. He slps 10:30-11pm &amp; wakes abt 8am. I think my diet veri fatty datz why he's able to slp well on bm + put on so much weight

Leereiner, i m currently reading Anna Karmel Complete First Year Planner. It states to do the same foods for a few days.

<font color="0000ff">The best first foods</font>
First Fruits- apple, pear, banana, papaya and avocado
First Vege - carrot, potato, swede, parsnip, pumpkin, butternut squash, and sweet potato.


Read somewhere before also that if intro new foods, do in the morning so if bb got tummy upset, your night time sleep will not be that badly affected.

<font color="aa00aa">Eviangal:</font> Abt safety gates, do compare w dept store sales coz if u get rebate may b better 2 buy fr Isetan etc
 
Kidzkidz: Any idea the safety gate prices in dept stores? I lazy to shop at dept stores nowadays. Too many ppl.

But what I understand is safety gates are not really cheap. I saw second hand gates selling at around $50. And kidzloft gates are selling at around $50 for brand new ones too.

Seems pretty worth leh..

Any mummies bought safety gates? Can advise?
