Michelle
My boy still prefers to latch on... give him bottle, he will scream and all the BM flow out of him mouth. So wasteful! ANGRY...
 
Jul
Nowadays I dont wash the pump parts after every pump. Very lazy... after pumping, I just put the parts into a lock&Lock and store in the fridge. Will only wash once a day at night.
 
kiki,
i realise my boy refuse to use btl if i'm the 1 feeding him if someone else feed him he takes it.. my boy also haven learn to slp thru yet.. i'm waiting for that day to come.. *anticipating* esp when i hav to wake up @ 6 every morning to prepare for work and to avoid the erp @ ecp... sianxxx
 
Janice, that's a good one...i will tell my boy next time. everytime, i get his daddy to hold both his hands to the changing mat, as if policeman pining someone down.

kikilala : my baby also have this habit nowadays. since 4th month, he starts to sleep through-out the nite, I am so happy back then.
But recently, he keep on waking up , wanting to suckle to sleep. Just last nite, I was awaken by him 3 times to let him suckle.
Not sure if he is hungry? He's like..the eyes still closed, but crying softly, keep tossing here n there.
 
Kiki,

Yen,

I left the room with Ovann on his tummy in his cot ... then when i came back, he's on his back already! Finally .. i see some progress with him making 360 deg flip ..... at least no need to rescue him in the middle of the nite le

kiki
the prob is tat my gal used to take 150ml every 4hr. now suddenly she on milk strike leh. so i worried. =(
u tried giving ur boy a dream feed betwwen 10-11pm? think it helps them to learn to sleep thru the night.
 
piggytoh
yah, started work last week. sianz...

Janice
I'm working at Alexandra. Very near to vivo/harbourfront. sometimes will go there for lunch. I cannot beat the erp anymore... so very heartpain everytime the "di" sound goes off!
 
miaon
I tried to dream feed him at 11pm and he will only take 30ml. I think he will not drink alot at night. each time only 30-60ml. so that's why every 2-3 hour must wake up... @_@
 
piggy,

Haha .. ya lor ... i was constantly racing with his thumb when i fed him. Cos if i'm slow in scooping the cereal & feed him, he will suck his thumb. Then all his hands kena the cereal.

Oh, Kyler dun like the spoon? Must jia you .. heh .. u still have abt 1 more mth to train him since u said u gonna start solids for him at 6 mths

its a long time since i post here but if i got time i will come in to see see.. think it has become part of my routine to come in to this forum.. how's everyone??
me sort of settle down in US liao.. and i need some advise from u all..

starting of solid:
to start on 6 months means when bb is wk 24? or let says my bb is born on 19 aug than i start solid on 19 feb? is actually a few weeks diff so how u all calculate leh? than when u all start solid u all feed in ard which timing and how many times a day?
 
kikilala,

my boy same as yours! only wans to latch on &amp; not sleeping through the nite yet. wakes up every 2.5-3hourly.

mich,
ya, he doesn't drink anything when i'm not at home lor. he'll scream his lungs out. so i've got to rush home every now &amp; then to latch him. luckily i work around my area. at times when i really can't go home, he'll jus hv to endure lor. now tat i've started on solids, at least i know he won't get too hungry.
 
piggytoh: so your son also like that...ok, so i am not alone.

This is very tiring for us mummies.
Count to think of it, I only enjoy 1 mth of uninterrupted nites nia, since he slept thru at 4mths.
 
piggytoh> is there any hdb carpark near ur officE?

jacqueline> think dun really need to follow so strictly. more impt is to see if he have interest in solid. my boy practically keep starin at our food. so i waitin to start him on solid when i collect my brown rice tat i ordered arrives

sharon> but if u give him the hadbit of suckling the moment he wakes up, he'll get used to it, giving u more sleepless nites
 
Michelle
oh no!!! I just latch my boy on when he make abit of noise. I'm staying with my parents &amp; sister, so very worried that bb cry too loudly will distrub them
 
Sharon
is there any breaks during training? i think even pumping for 15-20 mins every 3-4 hours should be ok. the trainer should be able understand lah.
Those smokers also disappear for 10-15 mins every 2 hours lor.
 
Michelle,
got HDB but quite far
sad.gif


Yen,
hahah once in a while my son will wake up in the middle of the nite n make some noise but his eye r close.. v tirin sigh..
 
michelle/kikilala,
if i dun latch...he cries n screams till i latch him...n its the super loud kind...sometimes my mum can hear it next door!
dun latch he cry...latch become bad habit
how huh?

kikilala,
i dunno lei...im will try to pump whenever there is break bah
cos schedule seems quite packed
 
kikilala, if you keep latching every 2hrs, it is encouraging your boy to drink little. That is what I read from the book. So try to drag longer so he feels hungry and drink more. Initially when you start to drag, his intake won't increase but after a while, he will drink more for each feed.
 
kikilala> last time my boy oso de moment he make abit of noise, i latch. wah. he wakes up more n more often at nite. den i read tat we must try not to latch him when he wakes up for nite feed. it's difficult at the start. cos thinking, if cry juz latch, at most 10mins? but dun latch, i struggle with him 1hr. den slowly push de time back further n further. now he can tahan till 7+am after feed at 12+am

ya main thing is to drag the time. even if it means 30mins each time. it'll wk. they are smart.

piggytoh> sian lo. hdb far den bo bian got to pay lo

sharon> bo bian one leh. tat time when i first start to train him to sleep thru de nite oso same. hubby n me wondering if we shuld give in. but he was trained within 1wk. so heng for us. no more waking up at nite after going to bed at 1+am
happy.gif
 
Michelle,

ya lor tt y i intend to quit with out a job really v tahan...

Sharon,
initially it like tt 1.. gotta bear with it.. tt time when my boi wake up in the middle of the nite i dun gave milk 1 jus try to pacify him with pacifier n rock him a little try to put him to sleep can battle with him for an hr 1 but afer a few day he get used liao no more wake up liao.. n my boi cryin is v v loud also cos he shout 1 not cry 1 ...
 
Kikilala, and the feeding interval must be 4hrly for baby to sleep thru. Last time I will feed at 12pm then when my girl wanna nap at 2pm I faster latch again so that I can nap Longer too instead of waking up at 3pm to latch. After I read that it's cultivating bad habit I stop doing it and try to drag to 4hrly feed, she start to sleep through after a while.

Gin,
Haha tt v cute... Anne have v nice bb pic i love it too.. I jus bott my boi go take family pic nia thinkin of makin canvas usin the pic lor keke...
 
kikilala> when he wake up dun give him milk lo. start by giving him pacifier or at most 10ml of water n try to pacify him back to sleep. slowly he know wake up no milk to drink, he lazy den nv wake up oso liaos

irene> erms. i dun care one leh. day time i latch on demand. or if i wanna go out, i latch him in de car before reaching our destination, so can last longer outside without having to find a nursing room. but when i give him to my parents, he follows a strict feeding routine. nite oso last feed is 1am latest n anytime earlier den 630am, i wun give him milk

gin oh> omg. so cute. wonder how they take tat pic =p
 
Michelle, I was doing the exact same thing as you last time, which is latch in the car before reaching the destination. But I stop doing it already since I started the 4 hrly feed.

My dream feed is at 12.30am and next feed would be 8am. Same as you, I don't feed my girl before 8am. But plus minus 15mins is ok.
We can adjust baby's feeding and sleeping to suit our individual lifestyle. So as long as we get some decent rest now to last through the day, it should be good enough.

I supposed maybe your boy is the flexible kind of baby. My girl used to be a very difficult baby and I only managed to put her on routine after she is 4 mths old.
