toffeecat: Thanks for the updates on the steamer + blender

ahnetsan: I use the glass bottles mainly to store milk, seldom use those for feeding. Half of my glass bottles were passed down from my cousin which she used 2 years ago... so far ok leh, I sterilized them before use.

createjoy: Think the Y teat require sucking action to release milk, kinda different mechanism.

My baby has been losing appetite recently leh, but at night he will have a super long (1 hour or more) latch before falling asleep, then will wake in the middle of night and keep feeding on and off (every hour or so) till morning... any other babies has similar pattern?
 


<font color="0000ff">long time since i logged in.. super busy with work cos colleague went on maternity leave and i covering her work..

createjoy >> thanks again for the bottles! how's your boy cradle cap? =) my boy also flipping liao though not very often..

re : weight
my boy seems so light compared to all your babies!! at 18weeks old he still 6.2kg nia~ drinking about 700 to 800 ml ebm a day.. still ok right??</font>
 
dolly, i think my boy is having a growth spurt. His last feed is at ard 8pm just before he sleeps and in the past he can last till past midnight or even later but he has been waking up for a feed at 10pm recently. And at nite he is waking up 2 hourly for feeds. previously it was 5am after the midnight feed now back to the 2 hourly feeds at 3, 5 and 7am. So tiring...
 
<font color="0000ff">createjoy >> my boy only using pigeon wide neck now. difference between M and Y is whether leak proof or not only.

my boy prefer leak proof one. so when he no suck, no milk. so he wont choke if he cry and drink. hahaa</font>
 
createjoy: Y is normal milk drinking teat just that it is anti-leak. which bb needs to use more strength to drink. my boy was on Y previously and i just switched him to normal M and he is drinking better. Also for Y, due to anti-leak, very difficult to test for the temperature...

wanted to join you mommies for the gathering but i have to attend a workshop on the same day...

my boy also drooling a lot. always sucking his fingers and stretching his tongue waiting for anything to be near his mouth and he will lick them. in-laws say that he is teething, gum itchy but i noticed he is licking &amp; sucking rather than biting/chewing leh.. i bought him a teether which he show no interest at all.

dear son has been sleeping with us on same bed because it is easier for me to bf him and also monitor/attend to him when in need. when put in his cot, he will sleep only 5-10mins.. how can i make him sleep on his own in his cot?

what toys do you give a 4mths+ bb to play?

my son has been sleeping lesser in the day. is it normal?
 
MaryG: My baby also sleep w us most of the time,I try to put him back to cot (which is in the same room) after every feed, but sometimes I'm just too tired. However, I'll still put him there whenever I can, like just now

bbaugustine: But my boy dun drink so much in day time leh, the nanny even ask if I eat something funny, but in fact I'm quite discipline this week... haha... maybe he prefer spicy milk?

I think my boy is kinda train to use the normal (narrow bottle) teat by the nanny. Cos at first I bought the Pigeon wide neck glass bottle, she dun like so I just substitute whatever I can find in the house, which were from the gift pack and normal neck. She also go ahead to buy small bottles for my boy.
So when I pass her the new BPA free bottle wide neck bottle, she said my son dun drink from it loh
 
ahnet, styliciously,
My girl also took 2 jabs liao, at 2mths &amp; 4mths, so I guess for this year, I'll only be claiming for the 3rd jab at 6mths, so won't hit the $300. But ya, wondering if it's better to use CDA, or Medisave. I very stupid, 1st time jab, CDA haven't proceed, cos I procrastinated. 2nd jab, forgot to bring CDA atm card. *faint* I believe SAHM can use hubby's Medisave...it's his kid also what! Haha...
happy.gif
I think at poly also must wait till 1 Nov, which is quite soon anyway. But better check directly with poly. And yes, a bit lame right, they wanna make it compulsory jab, then make it cheaper lah! Can lump it altogether with 6-in-1 and make it 7-in-1 right...

createjoy, not sure if it's 1 Nov become compulsory, or 1 Nov onwards can claim from Medisave... Maybe u can check with the nurse if can wait till 1yo to jab?

Trying to buy hospitalisation/medical insurance for baby, and stupid AIA sent me letter saying that because we never supply the additional info that they required from us, they have decided to not process our application. If I still want, must reapply. I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY NOTIFICATION FOR ADDITIONAL INFO LOR! So screwed up.
angry.gif
Don't buy from them liao.
 
dolly2009: i tried putting him back to the cot when he has fallen asleep but he will wake up after only a few mins or almost instantly. but he will sleep soundly and very long when he sleep with us on the big bed.

my son also wakes up a few times in the night to latch. so tiring... he will latch on one side and sleep then an hour or two later he will wake up for another side... feel like stopping bfing when he hit six months... but must persevere...

recently heard from my cousin that her friend who is on total bfing, her bb every time will still fall sick. her pd told her that if bm quality not good. bb will still fall sick.

in-laws bought bb a jumperoo. he tried yesterday and was enjoying playing in it. but i limit him to 10mins playtime in the jumperoo as he is still so young for it.

i didn't know bb suddenly dislike avent bottles when three months old.. and i have opened up four new big milk bottles and bought new teats for three months old... arghhhh.. now i don't know what to do with the extra bottles and teats!!!
 
tubbymummy: my son also has taken 2 shots of pneumonoccol jab before the news.. think i will want to use the CDA for his next jab. how to use the CDA atm card? i am not clear as hubby is the one who went to apply for the a/c. only can be use for pneumonoccol jab or other jabs also can?

any mommies considering of giving their bb Hep. A jab, flu jab or chickenpox jab? is it necessary?
 
To use CDA to pay for pneumo jabs, photocopy the trustee's IC and baby's birth cert, bring and pass to clinic and tell them u want to use CDA to pay. Then they will use the card to swipe n u key in the pin.. That's it.

MaryG: I've talked to the PD cos we are going for holiday in Dec, flu jab not recommended for baby below 6 mth, I'll jab myself instead, and pass some immnunity to him via bm
happy.gif
 
bbaugustine, after the last feed at 8plus, my baby usually will wake up after 5 hours. But now wake up every 3hours interval for milk. I suspect is due to her teeth sprouting so cant drink much and split in shorter interval. But seems like happen during nite feeding leh.

Jling, my baby also droolng alot in her 3rd month and put everything we give her into her mouth. Its the symptom of teething.

Tubbymummy, super angry hor. Write in and complaint den buy from others. haa
 
Hi mummies,

JUst bought Pampers Comfort size M for my gal but was too small..

Anyone wants? i sell cheaper than outside. All 58 pieces nvr use before only opened the pack to check the size.

Interested pls PM me.
 
bbjun: ok.shall do that for the next jab. thks.

dolly.200906: oh! that is so innovative of you. hehehe. wah! holiday... i hope to go for holiday too..

how come i can't post things to sell in this forum huh? i was prompt that i am not a member.
 
hi mummies,
I guess my boy is one of the heavyweight ard here but luckily he's not alone.
happy.gif
For a moment, I was quite worried actually. He still cant flip but I guess let nature take its course lah.

Hi creamer,
ya, i find that my bb boy is waking up more often for feeding at night. Wonder what happened.. last time used to be once or 2x now like 3-4x leh. Maybe it's time to intro him to solids?

Hi tubbymummy, if you dun mind, I'm from AIA. Maybe I can help you check it out? Do PM me if you're keen k?
happy.gif
 
MaryG: U need to be a member for at least 1 year before u can post at those restricted site.

Solids: My nanny has introduced rice cereal to my baby... cos she thinks my boy need more "solid" food other than my BM... and she said my boy was more contented and can play by himself instead of keep calling... so shall I buy that tin of rice cereal for him?
 
hi there.. my boy went for 4th month injection yesterday.. only 6.2kg.. 25th percentile. nurse says it's ok as long as he's gaining weight, happy, active, healthy..
 
Hi all, I wanted to ask about solids as well. Was thinking to intro cereals to baby, but dunno where n what to get.
My GP tells me that if i really want to give I should just get rice cereal, without formula milk content cos it might cause allergies n that the earlier I intro the earlier I m exposing baby to possible allergens. She told me till bb turns 6 months old, BM is sufficent. And no brown rice cereal cos difficult to digest.
With these, I can't find something in NTUC. can mummies here share their solid feedings for 4 month old?
Thanks.
 
Elaine Heng: My nanny show me this Nestle rice cereal, it's pure rice without any other thing. And yes, I wanna introduce later but my nanny very keen on it leh.
 
Hi Elaine
i think 2-3 yrs back Heinz rice cereal shows for 4mths above. But nowadays I cant find them in the supermarkets anymore. I think they may be revising their packaging to indicate 6mths old onwards. However, there's still one brand Si Sen that indicates suitable for 4mths onwards.

I'll probably feed my boy solid when he turns 5mths cos' to minimise possible allergy N i guess, I'm too lazy to clear up the mess! hahaha...
 
oh so Y teat is not necessary bigger than M teat.. does wide neck also have y? haha i v funny leh i use std &amp; wide neck glass btl w std &amp; wide neck pigeon teats, am i confusing him haha... didnt know wide neck suppose for bf bb , my bb is on ebm since 3rd wk of birth..

Gatheirng at Fang’s place,
Was so look forward but don’t think I will go, don’t want to pass the virus to other baby. mummies enjoy

Dolly, I ask my gp, she said must be for 4 months then can. She ask me to try looking from organic dept.
Oh she also asked me not to give bb juice or sweet drinks. Will cause phelgm and coughs.

Bs_s, I might wait till after 6 months since doc said EBM is enough for her now. Or might just start with giving her home made purée. I m quite excited to give her solids haha. Perhaps see her always drink milk... Solid might be interesting.

Hi Elaine
I brought my bb for his 4th month jab at poly and the nurse mentioned that can start intro-ing cereal once a day to bb when he's 5.5months. So that by the time he's 6mths can intro porridge liao. Think I may just try this. For my #1, i was too lazy to intro solids to him so now he dun really like to eat food. Mainly milk only. hahaha... very extreme hor?
 
createjoy: where do you find the hole puncher? Forgot to go kiddy palace, only walk around in Metro but can't find it.

Fang: Thanks for organising the gathering! Somemore got speaker to teach us how to discipline kids
