pegsfur> tat time i went to yishun one. but din bring my boy. was ard the area after going to site. had abit of time on hand, so went to library to signup library card n borrow books
 
pegsfur,

Lucky your boy was ok. i blamed myself from giving too much cabbage, i thought it was good but .... sigh, nevermind, everyone learn.

i freaked out when i see blood on her stool and is gluey
 
michelle,
For some reason, i find that sengkang library is a mess. I can never get the books i want. It was ok when they 1st opened. Then they started re-arranging the shelves & sections den i can't find anything i want.

sweetmama,
Ya lor, i oso thot it was good as it was stated as 1 of the few 1st vege to try for bb starting solids. But how much did u give yr bb? I only gave a few spoonfuls, but i gave him twice, once for lunch & once for dinner.
 
hahah pegsfur i m terrible, i gave her about 6 leafty. u can imagine how big the leaf is and i threw everything in the pot! i didnt cook separately.

Ya, it was stated in the brochure as a safe food. who knows....arghhhhh,

ok, off work..rush home to pick bb, sayonara!

mummies, I am very sad, remember 2 nites ago, my nanny feed my boy with grapes and skin, which cause my boy to vomit.
Last nite, we found out my baby got a round red-mark on his thigh, becoz my SIL's 3yr old son go n bite him.
The nanny said..they are playing the day before ( daytime) then the elder boy duuno why go n bite him, out of sudden. But i am suspecting she is not even watching them when this incident happen.
This make me lose trust in that nanny totally.

Just now, I tried to bite my own wrist, and the redness go off in 5 min.
I cannot imagine how hard that boy go n bite my son such that the red mark is still visible on Wed evening ( she claimed the bite happen on Tue daytime). My boy must have feel so painful and cried so loud..i really feel very very xin-tong for my boy. I cannot ask my SIL...to place her son in the childcare so that nanny can focus 100% on my baby.
My husb dun wan the idea of IFC..this is giving me HEADACHE. I may have to quit my job.
 
Yen
some children relieve stress by biting. I dun think it's your nanny's fault since there's no way she can be watching them all the time. Having an older toddler in the house will have this prob. Even in IFC, there are many biting incidents too. U can't run away from it. My boy has ever been biten in school before. And it's only a 3 hr class. So take it easy.
 
yen
oh gosh s a parent we c le is very heart pain de lo sometime i c my niece n nephew playin very rough wif my gal i will oso heart pain.
y dont u talk to ur hubby abt it n c wats the reason y he disapproved IFC.

Sharon
im stayin in woodlands n workin in yew tee if wan im willing to help out
happy.gif

How is ryan?? is he better??
 
felicia
javier been rejecting milk nowadays too.. can really took him 30-45mins to finish the 240ml.. sometimes i have to use syringe too.. dunno wat happen too..
 
pegsfur
i used to go sengkang library n i always cant get wat i wan cos very messy.
I always bring my girl to library wif hubby cos my monster will scream i scared to get chase out so will ask hubby take care when i go choose book but who knows both my hubby n gal play in library n my girl was laughin away loudly so paiseh lo. so nowaday i prefer to borrow back to read to my gal
happy.gif
 
Yen, agree wif mashy cos my gal also biten by my niece (1.5yrs old) for many times..cos MIL looking after them in the day alone FIL will back from work ard 4pm then can help up.

Starting was quite bad kena biten everyday leaves scars & marks. Recently seems better but tdy i saw another mark on her wrist
sad.gif


I know is vy heartache...unless u can solve ur childcare prob if not hv to kan kai liao.
 
Felicia & baby ja,

if your boys still can finished the milk i thk u can consider chg the teat to heavier flow mayb the current one the flow is too slow. cos I think reject milk means they dun wan to drink at all.
 
sandy,

Hoho ... so i'm not the only one who can't find the desired books at sk library!

Hiaz, i'd like to borrow books back too but the thing is i'm taking care of ovann alone and he sticks to me. Plus i need to get out of the house to catch some fresh air
happy.gif
 
BBja,
Kyler also nowaday after he drnk half way he will push away turn here n ther sometime must pull him back to feed him or even spoonfeed... n he more keen in solid food than milk i notice..

Yen,
i tink theyr too young to understd so when they play together i tink it norm.. my case was he will attack my BIL daugther who is younger.. i have to pull him back n scold him lo but i doubt he understd.. but i tink there r ther thing tt make u unhappy with tis nanny rite? maye bring ur HB to IFC n have a look hopefully can change his mindset..
 
Mashy: it's the 1st time My baby Kenna
bitten. So u can imagine how shocked n angry I am.

Sandy: my husb is against IFC becoz he think that babies tend to fall sick easily there. He dun oppose child care center. Our aim is to put him in childcare once he reach 18m.

Donkeymami : oh my, many bruises n marks... I sure cannot take it one. I understd your mil one person cannot take care. But I seriously expect my nanny as a caregiver will be
more responsible to look after baby afterall there is her husb (also retired) around too.
 
Yen, understand since she dare to charge u so high means she will relly take good care of ur son. Probably u need to sort this thing out wif ur hubby come out wif a solution, i guess u wun trust this nanny anymore so better to find an alternative. Heard u consider to quit ur job & look after ur boy?

i cannot expect too much from MIL cos she's hubby's mother though we give her quite good allowance. :p
 
Yen
it's true that on IFC can get sick easily. It's not good for the kid esp if kid is sickly. My boy was in IFC before and I regretted it. I think the effects on his health is permanent. It's just another 6months more and he'll be 18mths already. Just bear with it. In the meantime why not go cc hunting coz many cc has long waiting list. Better put down your name for the centre u want now so that by the time 18mths can go in without prob.
 
donkeymami
i juz change his teat to #3 recently.. he will drink for abt 40-50ml then push away liao.. after that i put back in his mouth, he will juz bite the teat loh..

piggytoh
wa.. spoonfeed.. i no patient leh.. hee.. i cant imagine the balance 190ml use spoonfeed...
 
pegsfur> haha. i seldom go library actually =x

yen2008> ya. last time my ifc got this gal who go round biting pple too. den de teachers haad to confine her to her cot. she looks so cute but so monsterous =p

yen,
i understand your sadness, but as what mashy said it is unavoidable if playing near another kid. If you send yr child to IFC might have certain accidentents too. Anyway, what I am trying to say is give your nanny another chance and monitor whether you feel ok or not before using this as the reason to send your child to IFC. Take care.
 
sharon,

april,
How long did Brewbakers take to reply you? I've sent them some enquiries few days back but till now haven't heard from them
sad.gif


baby s,
Hahaha .. ya lor .. it's really stifling in the house with mil hawking my every move. It's like she's waiting for opportunity to play with ovann. If i'm feeding him, and i left him in the high chair to wash his bowl or prepare the fruits for him, he may get bored and start to whine. At this time, mil will come out from her room and start cooing to ovann.

Den during play time when i put ovann on his bumper mat, she'll purposely leave her bedroom door ajar, so that ovann will crawl into her room. She'll den pick ovann up and return him to the mat, but not without sitting down and play with him as well. F... I just feel that she has intruded too much into my personal space &amp; time with ovann.

Every morning when i cook porridge for ovann, keep on asking me did i put in the dried scallop or not. I had to answer her 'Didn't u ask me just yesterday? I've already told u sometimes i put, sometimes i dun put, depending on wat i cook mah'. Then she'll start to mumble abt putting other vege, meat etc .... really fan si ren.

And yah, the SK library is hopeless case .. eh, thot u going to pasir ris? Going to rain le.
 
morning all

Hi all

Just came back from library and had our lunch. In Sg, I like the library at JE and the one at JW, very well organised and lots of books.

Bukit Batok library not too bad, abit small, so is Bukit Panjang. The Woodlands and Tampines library are good too.
 
The topic now is about milk intake?

Think as they grow bigger, they want to try more variety of solid food and milk intake will go down abit.

So far, Ray's schedule

6.30am BM (latch)
8.00am Bread/Cheerios with fruits and water/fresh EBM
10.00am snack - rice rusk with fruits, BM (latch), nap
12.30pm Lunch - 1 rice bowl of porriadge, pasta, bee hoon, noodle, etc.
3.30pm snack - Biscuit, BM (latch), nap
7.00pm Dinner - 1 rice bowl of rice, pasta, bee hoon, noodle, etc.
9.30pm BM (latch) sleep

In between, he drinks about 250ml of water.
 
hi BabyS

Her diarrhea has improved but still watery poo poo, but thank GOd with no blood.
I have decided to stop giving her all the medicine including antibiotic. I hope i have made the right decision.
I think too much medicine is not good. Now i'm waiting for NUH to call me about the result as they took my gal's diarrhea for a lab test.

Btw, it would be nice if mummies can share your pediatrician with me, esp those who stays in commonwealth.
I tried to google but it seems all the results are mostly the PD in paragon or hospitals or clinics that are far away.
 
sweetmama, in Sg we go to Dr EK Ong (used to be from SBCC in Thomas, Now in his new clinic in Mt A.)

When cooking liang vegetables, try to add in some ginger or ginger powder. So far, I never give cabbage to baby under 1, think too liang.
 
Hi Pris

Where is SBCC in Thomas? I used to see Dr. Ong Eng Keow or Keong from Thomsan Medical Centre for the 2 weeks after birth check up.

yalo, i didnt know cabbage will cause wind...sob sob...
 
do your babies like to hit their own head huh?
My boy loves to hit (with palm open) his head. Saw on TV yesterday, they mention that baby plus baby will do that! exactly like my boy.

Pegsfur
Not to frighten you lah... but you have to be prepared that one day Ovann will want your MIL.

My sis stays with her MIL, but her MIL go out almost everyday (go dancing and karaoke) and seldom help with the kids. But hor recently we went oversea together and my nephew actually started to cry at night in the hotel that he missed his home/bed and to our surprise his nei nei!
