ChiyoJade, I carry mine whenever he cries non-stop or let out the type of cry that says "I am frightened".. but some of the moms here 领教 my boy's cry before, very irritatingly loud.. so embarrassing. I counted the occasion I got impatient is less than 5 fingers.
Bestberries, sayang ur hb abit too, u need him to b on your side to fight the battle.. Hee hee hee (stephen chow's laughter...)

HBB,
The boat went down in March, but I only found out today cos was emailing the owner to arrange for trip next year. Cook (who always give me vege to go swim & feed turtle) died, saw a few dive masters name in the survivor list. Feel so bad for them...
bestberries,
(*hug*) Hubby around these few days? Yah, it's bad for men to be stuck between mother and wife... but sometimes blood can boil. But must applaud you at least remain sane enough not to start screaming at her. Same thing here. I can get so angry that literally get sick. Next day will be feverish and puke type, that's how angry I can get

Hugs to mommies whose blood are boiling.. Lamagier, wa, angry until fever and puke is serious.. Mine at most is shivering and cant speak properly which I hate cos I need to argue and so many mistakes in a sentence made me look stupid! Then I felt I need to yell in order to get my point thru, then next day sexy voice..
hbb, haha... i'm just imagining myself at kkh counter, want to seek help for pnb and light madness. they tell me go imh. that is so insulting and totally catch the victim by surprise right. i think i will really go mad there and then. hope your gf can get well without pills.
my knight is coming back tomoro. he's got a lot of blood to wipe off the floor. he's under lots of stress too. will see how it goes. looking forwad to gg office tom, gg to treat myself to a disgustingly oily unhealthy delicious breakfast.

Bestberries: you're very good to be able to tahan. If I was in your position, I would have lost my cool. Hope you feel better tomorrow
Kim: managed to upload the video? I was so annoyed last night cos Max woke up every hour. He would turn, get stuck and then wake up crying. By the 5th time I tried to swaddle him but as usual he managed to wiggle out of it. Keeping my fingers crossed that tonight will be a better night.

Phew! I feel better knowing that I'm not the only one irritated! He can cry for 40 mins nonstop. I try not to carry him too much, BUT.... I will put him in his rocker, face him and just say gently, "No, I'm not going to carry you, it's OK" and it goes on until it becomes,"OK!OK!OK! You win! Happy?!" and I pick him up. Then he is like shaking and gulping for air and I feel so bad/guilty. I don't shout at him so much or scold him, but the crying does get on my nerves and then I get headaches!!! And I'm allergic to aspirin and paracetemol!!
RE: Baby crying
Totally agree on different parent different parenting. Even teaching from books said differently. Read from 1 which says the longer she cries, the longer you need to calm her down.
But don't you find lying on the back too long, the back will become too hot and sweaty? Very uncomfortable le. Now, Regis normally wails when he's hot (at least I think so) cos when I pick him up, the back of his shirt is damp and he would guai guai unless it's something else like hungry or wan2 sleep.

Yes, his back is all hot and sweaty after that as well. sigh... which brings me to ask you all which stroller do you recommend? I haven't bought one - using an old hand me down, because husband and I realised that strollers for newborns are more expensive than thsoe for 3 or 6 months(can't remember) and above.
So now we are using this hand me down, but would like to get something smaller and preferably light and can close with one hand, etc. AND we notice that when bb i sin the stroller (the hand me down, a Capella one) for too long, he gets hot and sweaty!!! We have one of those fans, but his Back is all sweaty - like when he has been crying - but are there any strollers with "holes"/"netting" that allows the baby's back to breathe, right? And it must be light! Don't want those 14kg type.

HBB: if you are travelling with your infant, you can brng any amount of liquid on board, airport security are very lenient on this
Jillian, the video is posted few days back in my fb. u check <[email protected]>
RE: Nestle NAN1
someone posted something about this few days ago.. can PM me if it's report on this? Thanks!
Coolkero, ya, busy cos the weaning food is longer since bb only learning how to thrust food to the back of the mouth then swallow.. and making a mess. I now just let him be as messy as I can tolerate, then wipe everything after.
When I saw Sam's post on how to see if baby needs more food, I though perhaps he was ready, that time he was less than 3.5mths. And the spitting up makes me really helpless. When I saw PD at 3.5mths, he says "no" even though he was a full term baby.
But after the 2nd 6in1 at 4mths, he gave green light.
Intro of weaning food actual ease the problem of spitting ups. Now it is only occasional spit ups which doesn't cause so much concern to me.
Chiyojade, there are other pain killers in the market that does not contain paracetamol or asprin. U can get from doc the list too. Hope u dun need med to ease the pain.
Yan, aiyo, I have those in my care that are more hard to please, and they are not even blood close. So, how can I be impatient so easily to my own flesh & blood esp when he can't clearly tell me what discomfort he is experiencing right?
HBB, Lavenderbear is right, almost all airport allows liquid when u travel with an infant, but I have yet to hear feedback from those that are most sticky~~Australia, US domestic.
Gina, I also dun mind 13th if the rest are ok. I will keep that day open. Thanks for arranging! Gf told me she prefers Kindermusik too Aquaduck.

Bestberries,
Hope you are feeling great now after your super duper oily breakfast. Got me craving for roti prata. Stuck on my little island, nowhere to go buy prata =p
Gina,
Ju en power! hahaha. You must standby videocam next time and catch her in action.
Re: Baby cry
Sigh. I'm those softie parents. Feel so guilty at having to send her to my aunts to stay overnights that I pamper her ltos when she's back home with me. And now she's getting spoiled. Behave like little angel at my aunt's. But the moment she recognizes that I'm around, cried to be picked up. Sigh. Seriously need to start toughening her up and getting ehr back on a routine again

i feel for you. the same thing happened to me last night except MIL didn't say it. But all her actions speaks it.
Not sure why, these few nights Amanda was crying before sleep. Something she has not done for quite some time. Screaming her head off in the yaolan, in my arms, on the bed, etc. Know she wants to sleep but just couldn't sleep. Was at wits end and left her on the bed to cry while i try to pat her. She was screaming from 10pm till 11pm+ when my hb came back. When hb came into the room, he asked me if he's crying since 9pm and offered to carry her. Then he carried her out to the living room. Then that MIL came out of her room asking what's wrong and why cry until like that, wants to carry her, etc etc. Fumed! What's all these telling my hb she's crying since 9pm, offering to carry her only when he's home, etc? Must be thinking what the hell i'm doing in the room to make her cry like that. Lucky my hb know i'll be super fumed if he allows her to carry n told her to go back to sleep. N she fell asleep while he carried her.

bbethan, tomi is drinking nan ha, and yes it's on the bitter side. the consolation is that they will grow up not having sweet tooth. i didn't know that until once when my nanny was around and tomi refused to drink from midnite to the afternoon, so she taste the milk and thought something wrong wif powder cos it taste bitter, me panic attack call the PD, and nurse say it's like that, no worry, all the nurses use nan ha also.
hi mummies thanks for all the advice. yes yes i'll remember to just keep my mouth shut. it really took all my physical strength and jaw muscules not to talk back yest. in my mind i was smashing things agaist the wall, onto the floor, throwing things around the house, packing my luggage, getting ready to leave. like ally mcbeal. yup had my oily artery clogging breakfast. and kopi gao. feeling much much better. except that my pumping schedule went haywire cos forgot to wake up for my 1am pump.
milk on trip - you must have bb with you for airplane to allow milk onboard. otherwise you'll have to freeze your milk and check in.
bb cry - chiyojade, i'm like that too. will start off with 'hush hush now, mummy's here, mummy love, blah blah' then after 20 min its 'ok STOP IT, ENOUGH, NOBODY CRIES SO LOUD'

Re:Walker cum rider/wagon.
Mummies,any feedback with the following items?
FisherPrice walker to wagon or Tomy Toddle n ride(walker to rider)
My friend recommended me Tomy Toddler n ride Jap version.As most places sell US version,which she told me Jap version is better as there's a rubber strip and has the friction,wont topple and fall so easily.
What's mummies say in the 2 above stuff?

gina - no worries about Kindermusik, just let me know.
Yeah, the 40 mins was quite terrible. But he was sooo fussy that whole morning/day until I really needed a break, felt like my head was going to burst, so I let him cry in his room, transferred him to his bouncer (after 10 mins), put him next to me but I didn't carry him...it was one of those bad days!
Anyone here on FB?
