Wah, finally got internet connection again! My internet and digital phone line kaput on me since Sunday. Felt so deprived haha.
creamer, I mix the cereal to be quite thick. The watery kind looks quite pointless haha, so I've never given her watery smooth cereal before. It was always quite textured right from the start.
Firstmum, skyla still not on schedule. Tonight had bedtime bottle at 11.45pm. Still got 3hrs+ to go before getting back to 8.30pm. Hopefully can accomplish in 1wk *cross fingers* It's turning my day upside down.
createjoy, agree the HT cereal like so thin. I'm using the barley one now, I have to use double the amount compared to the previous cereal I used (Only Organics Baby Rice cereal). So I went and buy another box of the Only Organic one to use to bulk up the HT one. Like so stupid right? Btw, I think the dawson area very nice, i like
bbaug, think Skyla hasn't pooped for 3-4 days already... I get scared just waiting for her next bomb. The last one stank to high heavens! But thankfully it wasn't hard. Phew.
Mummies, when u all say 5tbsp is one serving of cereal, do you really mean TABLESPOON as defined in cooking/baking terms? Or are you referring to those spoons that we eat rice with (which technically speaking is called dessertspoon)? Cos if you're talking about the real big tablespoon, isn't that A LOT of cereal?? Skyla eats no where near that much... Her one feed is only around 5 teaspoons of cereal mixed w 2 cubes of puree or 1/4 avocado (or the equivalent in other types of mash). She eats this twice a day. Am I feeding too little? Oops... The total amount after mixing everything is about half her Nuby baby bowl, so I thought it looked enough, cos can't imagine her stomach being that big now to contain more...

speaking of the definition of tbsp, im using the plastic soup spoon to measure. I give 5 heaped spoons for barley / 4 heaped spoons of brown rice. I feel that the barley is thinner/lesser than brown rice in the same qty. If I only give cereal, 1 serving is nt enuff. My girl cleans up the bowl in 5 mins and wants more! So I usually latch her after cereal feed. Otherwise, its cereal wif veg & fruit then no need milk feed. Tis afternoon, she had 1 oz apple puree and half an avocado wif brown rice cereal.

Hi rosel, still up at crazy hours?
I don't know which tablespoon it's supposed to be... The HT barley cereal is very thin right?? Have not tried the rest. I think my cubes are 1oz only. Doesn't look like 2oz... Ok, the more I describe, the lesser her food sounds! She wipes out her bowl in around 2-3min, but doesn't fuss for more. On 1 or 2 occasions, she turned her head away after only half the cereal, so I take that as a sign as her not wanting anymore and I won't force feed her. Maybe she's not fussing for more because I don't give it to her as a main meal, she gets cereal between 2 latch sessions. I latch her 4x a day now, so she gets cereal after latch no. 2 and no. 4. Then finished off with 7oz bottle for bedtime.

Annie, dont' worry la. Just feed according to demand and of cos, just moderate a little when necessary. My boy eats the following:
morning at 7am 210ml milk
1030am- Nanny ffed 1 bowl (6tbsp) of cereal. On weekends, he gets additional puree added by me.
130pm- 210ml of milk
5pm - One bowl of brown rice porridge/cereal with threadfin. Weekend - porridge with veg n threadfin.
730pm - 210ml of milk
1130pm - 180ml of milk
He gets additional snacks on weekends like pumpkin, potato, sweet potato, avocado puree etc. Usually a small serving ard 330pm.
He hates water. At most drink about 80ml a day.
I am not sure if he really need the last feed of milk but if I don't, I think he is drinking too little milk.
I think he weighs close to 10kg now. I will try to weigh him with my scale this sat when he turns 7months.

annie, toffeecat: i recover liao. thks for your concern. glad to recover so fast. really dislike putting on a mask. so uncomfortable.
toffeecat: i dun think i will be able to brainwash him. hopefully after staying on our own for some years he will change his mind on moving back.
re: rash around mouth
the rash seems to be getting better already. think the skin has slowly got used to coming contact with food ba. but i'm still practising wiping his mouth with damp cloth after meals & also in between meals. has been trying cetaphil to wash his face recently and also applying california bb calendula cream on the rash. so now i dun really now which is working.
re: breastmilk going dry
i'm actually happy that it is going dry cos i plan to wean him off my breast soon. he has been biting & pulling my nipples... pain lo.. cant imagine when he grow teeth.. also he has got the habit of latching either for soothing/fun. my mom says like opium addict. hahaha! his is breast addict. if he sleeps with me, he nvr feels to wake up in the nite just to latch. will get angry if i try to use a dummy. but if he sleeps with my mil, he can sleep thru the nite w/o waking up.

can't catch up on all the posts, just wondering
tiny bubu - is sophie sleeping well already?
qi7 - so sorry to hear your news, hope you stay strong.
mummies,
do you find that the HT brown rice has tiny brown specks?
how do you puree the hard veges like carrot and pumpkin? i'm so slow in introducing new foods, is there any guideline on how fast we must do so?

ahnetsan, createjoy, my gal's 10.5kg and 72cm at 6.5months
PD said i shld only feed her 500ml each day. but i remember seeing on some website that we shld still feed babies 700-900ml a day until they are 9-10mths or is it a year? so a bit hesitant to reduce the milk. some more she is starting to wake up in the middle of the nite, so i
MaryG, for my gal she sits on her high chair. but she gets distracted very fast. likes to swing her hands, or rub her face or put her hands in the mouth. we just try to catch her b4 she does something funny. and make funny faces (exaggerated eating mouth movements) to make her eat. did someone mention that it's better not to let them play during mealtimes? otherwise it'll be a bad habit?
Annie, ur boy takes a lot of water! does he like it? my gal hates it too, like bbjun's dylan. think she only takes 10ml??

newmum : thanks for asking.sophie's back to sleeping at 7pm after drinking 4oz.then she wakes up at 6am to drink 4oz,then back to sleep in a few minutes and wakes up for good at 7am each morning.thanks goodness for that.
btw, sophie learnt how to crawl forwards today.hooray.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGn0dSSWVI0
her dad took the photo and that's my annoying hand shaking the rattle but the shrill voice you hear in the background is our helper.haha.
she's about 7.5mths now so i reckon all the other babies here will be crawling forwards like sophie pretty soon....
arggghhhh,i only have till april before i give birth again.where has the time gone???
i called up julia gabriel the other day to find out if they have a playgroup for babies as i want sophie to start socializing and to spend some one on one time with her before the new baby is born.
they told me they have an eduplay group on every sun and mon @ 9am.10 weeks would set me back by $1100!!!! that's insane!
so we're going to baby breeze on sat afternoon to try out the trial class for positive babies.it's $220 for 8 lessons which is heaps better than julia gabriel.plus i've been put on a waiting list for the trial class at aquaducks suntec...

createjoy, I thought as long as Jayden drinks up the rest of the liquid that is meant for mixing with cereal, should not constipate right? I do like you too, I don't follow the instructions on the packaging, I just use about 30-40ml of milk/water to get the consistency I want. Then try to feed her 50ml of water twice a day. Sometimes she'll completely refuse to drink, and whole day no water intake, that's y she constipate. Other times, I cheat by adding 10ml of juice so that the water has a bit of taste (but not sweet).
MaryG, the ngoh fish is called threadfin
For my girl, no toys or tv when she eats. Just strap her in high chair and take her out when done.
ahnet, I'm opposite, I purposely bought those big bibs! I like the catchment area especially because it catches biscuit crumbs etc well. I don't find them gross hehe, after eating just unbutton and wipe with damp kitchen towel, or run water over and wipe dry. Sometimes if it's quite messy, I run water over and rub some baby dishwashing liquid over it. I prefer wiping bib to cleaning floor!
newmum0109, I don't puree stuff like carrots and pumpkin. I just steam and mash with hand cos I don't want it too smooth.
tinybubu, what's baby breeze about? Coincidentally, I was just wondering about Julia Gabriel charges right before seeing your post!

MaryG - Congrats to your son's 7mth bday!
Wow crawling already .. so fast.
Newmum0109 - hi our 'names' so similar .. hihi
What i did was cut/chopped the carrots and steam them, then put them in the blender.
For Pumpkin, i just sliced them, then steam and put them in blender.
Anyways i think so long not hard for the baby can already.
Tinybubu - so exciting to see your video. I watched it over and over ... waiting for the day my daughter can do the same ..
MILK INTAKE
Our problem now is my daughter's not taking enough milk. She's on solids already, and we only gave her 2 tablespoons of brown rice cereal, and abt 30ml of other foods (eg avocadoes, carrots etc) ...
We'll mix the cereal and other foods with FM (60ml - so abt 30ml to each, sometimes dont need so much). When we offer FM to her after solids, she mostly doesnt really take, or just some.
She has 3 meals of solids, then one last meal with milk - she'll drink like between 50 to 180ml. We are trying to see how we can make her take more.

TubbyM, today is the 2nd day Aug has not pooped after his last poo. Hopefully he poos tmw. So far it has been 1 poop in 2-3 days. The poo that i saw on the 3rd day previously was mushy, smelly and massive. I tried giving him peaches and did all different types of massage to make him poo but doesnt seem to be working. Today i gave prune juice diluted with water so im looking forward to the next poo!!!
Seems like the milk intake for some of the babies here has reached 210ml. My Aug is only taking 120ml but he drinks 2-3 hourly and that is only when he is fed by my mum. I have no idea how much he takes when i latch cos its on demand. For HT rice cereal, I used to give abt 7 tablespoons (the kind that we eat rice with) with 90ml of BM before he got his irregular poo. Seems like a lot compared with what many of the mums are giving=P but Aug can finish it, although he doesnt really like solids that much right from the start. It requires lots of coaxing. Now i only give 5 tablespoons cos i dont want him to be constipated. I think it is stated on the box that 8 tablespoons is the full serving.
Aug is also crawling backwards instead of forward and i was just wondering today that it was really weird haha. So they start to crawl backward before moving forward?

For my doctorate program I am conducting a research study in which I am requesting your assistance. The study is to learn more about couple's relationship as they take on the role of parenthood. Since this website is designed for parents, I thought you and/or someone you knew may be interested in helping me with this project. I am hoping to compare my data from USA parents to Sinagpore parents.
This may or may not apply to you. If you doesn't, please forward this to people you know so it can reach other first-time parents who may want to participate. Thanks for your help!
Do you meet the following criteria? Do you know someone who does?
* Have you had your first (and only) child in the past six months to two years?
* Do you live with the co-parent?
* Is it the first child for both partners?
* Do you want to share information that could help other couples transition into parenthood?
If you answered YES to these questions, and are 18 years of age or older, you are eligible to participate in this parenting research study. This survey is being conducted through an online questionnaire and is estimated to only take 5-10 minutes to complete.

tubbym,
yes i think the tablespoon definition on the cereal boxes are the huge spoons for baking. the chinese rice spoon i believe is the Teaspoon. and dessert spoon is the small one we use for ice cream. but boxes usu indicate a large serving and ang mo babies may eat more, so we use the chinese metal spoon should be ok
which brings me to my next question. when they say "8 tablespoons", i think it should be 1 meal WITHOUT purees? so if we add puree the cereal should be less. otherwise i think they would be REALLY full.
also, i have also bought "only organics" and 3 spoons can make a big bowl, whereas HT you need about 6 spoons to make the same amt. am i correct to say that we only need feed 3 spoons for only organics and probably 8 spoons for HT for 1 meal????
the question abt "cubes". its refers to normal ice cube trays. so 1 cube should be 1 oz.
sweethalo,
is noah back in action?? hope he takes to the food quickly and without much fuss. update us!
tinybubu,
