Ethan loves vehicles also.
happy.gif
I think it's a guys thing. haha! Sam knows how to say 'bike'? Tats good!
happy.gif
Ethan says 'broom.. broom..' and make the hand action when he wans to indicate bike. For bus, he goes 'eng... eng.....'. Haha! The 2 vehicles tat he can speak clearly is car & truck. He used to know cab & tat (taxi) but now dun want to say anymore.


Cherrios,

If I remember correctly, my GP commented tat at abt 16 mths, shd be able able speak like 5 words other than 'ma ma' & 'pa pa'.
 


zen: when the GP says, say the words, does he mean just be able to say or be able to understnad what it means when they say it?

Jul, she calls them "tek" only lor, not full word. When she says tek, we follow up with Xi..

once she was so excited she went "TEK TEK TEK!" and i just replied "Xi Xi XI!" hahha...

smurfy, the PD may suggest u send ur girl to 3hrly parent accompanied enrichment classes.. haha! then u can jul can combine efforts to find these classes and attend together. hee..
 
hehe... guess i am not alone... i think as long as they dun have any speech problem, i rather they start talking properly at a later stagee... i think xuen is growing too fast... i miss the times when she is just a tiny lil girl...

Cherrios, where are you from?
 
liz
i am worried abt speech problem. coz it seems alot of effort to make that "mama" sounds..

babys
i lazy mummy. just going let her go for 1.5 hr parent accompanied class in term 2 in her futuer sch
 
cheerios

Really? 20 words ah? Let me count..

Car, bus, bike, porpor, gonggong, papa, jiejie, gorgor, moon, star,.. 10..
fish, woah woah, cat, bird, clothes, chair, bread, nan nan, mum mum, na na.. 20..

Ok got 20 words. Baby talk like mum mum, nan nan count hor haha

Personally, I think it's more impt that they can follow instructions & understand what we're saying

zen

He said "mo mo mike" once.. then conveniently shortened it to "bike". Same with radio > dio.. He used to say "vacuum" but not anymore

Is it normal for them to say some words a few times, then refuse (or can't) say them anymore?

Er.. so is it 5 words or 20 words? If cannot say MAMA then how? hahaha

babys

U funny leh.. imagine 2 of us here panicking & looking for 3h class??? Then if many of the mummies start getting influenced, the 3h centres will suddenly get a deluge of calls asking for weekend parent-accompanied classes? hahaha rally funny..
 
smurfy

Oh your gal's going for d'story club right? Is that in addition to weekday pat's Schoolhouse? Pat's schoolhse is so expensive, dun think I can afford it
sad.gif
Anyway I'm not looking for CC lah, only kindy so it's out anyway (self-consolation hee)
 
smurfy

Btw u're worried abt speech probs.. I was worried abt autism. Coz a while back, Sam seemed to ignore me when I talk to him, he didn't want to have eye contact with me, seemed especially bad-tempered.. It's much better now but the old fears sometiems will creep up on me in my bad moments
 
celine

Sam used to say "mum mum" then he suddenly said "Ma Ma". I was so happy, thought he was calling me! Then I realsied he shortened mum mum *bashed in the face*
 
smurfy: My #1 could barely speak in sentence until she is 2.5 years old, almost 3 years old....

Now she speaks much much better than her peers... i find her too noisy at times... hehe
I still rem she used to have the Australian accent cos too much Hi5, barney etc... hehe
 
Donkeymami,
no la not sellin my current flat my current 1 is exec flat.. Ya v ex so now we see see no action wait see will drop anot we r aimin 1 Liao thou.. So really dunno how it goes maybe will still stuck at my current flat haha..

Zen,
Kyler like anything with wheel too he will tell me car where? Train where? Plane where? His fave toy lol.. N yes he will tell me yes or no to indicate he wan anot v cute 1 haha..
 
liz/jul

the "mama" sounds she make.. she will form an "o"shape w her mouth and after saying, still leave her mouth in that position for another 1 or 2 sec.. no mum mum... wow lao, i really scared she got speech problem.

liz
yep i heard that kids who speak later, speak much better. but tis girl, she makes funny sounds leh which i can.. errr how shld i say it.. associate with a mute? :x
 
jul,
haha...my boy will look at me said "mama mama" then suddenly turn away said "mum mum mum mum" so make me confused whether he calling me or want to eat snack *sigh*

piggy,
you aiming where? share with me? will u be my neighbour?
happy.gif
 
Cheerios,
Think almost everything cheaper in the US? U must really stock up!! Like the Colostrum, fish oil, etc
Crazy prices at GNC

Mummies,
How many times does your baby poo a day?
Ryan has been having poor appetite so I brought him to Yu guo
The Yi shi says poo 2 times a day is no good but I can't control that
She also says he is small n Ryan feels like toufu...unlike other babies, best example are mattea n keona, when I carry them, they feel really solid
Ask me feed him more! Went for tui na..hope can see results
 
Hi morning ladies! mid of the week liao le. another 2 days wowo. haha..

sharon
my boy poo about twice a day. but doc said good leh. i one day also poo 2 times. i read article saying every 8hr poo 1 time is normal. so one day got 24hrs, so its about 3 times. but you know sleeping time how to poo.

sometimes my boy don wan eat, i show him that i have put his pieces of biscuits inside than he eat wor. this is to temp him to eat. but not every mouth have it.
 
sharon, Isaac also used to poo 2 - 3 times a day. And the TCM says its no good. But after much medication, now it has improved to once a day. I wish I could feed Isaac more as well... haiz..
 
liz

Gosh! Australian accent? Sam watches a lot of Hi5 too

smurfy

Aiyoh dun say that lah. Maybe she's playing with her mouth or something. If you're really worried, ask Dr Ong 2moro. Shunbian ask him why need to send to 3h parent-accompanies class. maybe we can go together? haha

celine

Same here. Dunno if he's calling me to give mum mum, or he's only saying mum mum
sad.gif


sharon

Really? Poo 2x a day no good? I thought anywhere from 1x per 2 days to 2x per day is ok? Sam normally poos 2x a day too. Sometimes will poo 3x if he eats stuff like papaya or only poo-ed 1x the previous day & stored up too much haha. But normally will be once in the am after his milk, & again after lunch or pm milk.
 
mrng ladies!

RE: Bah Kwa

I love Lim Chee Guan! haven't eaten tat since I was pregnant. No time to go Q for it.

Re: Vitamins & Supplements
Any recommendation for the above? and also Vit C? Which brand is good?
 
I think my boy oso can't speak much. His fav words other than car is bear. Can't stand him .. every time when i'm doing chores in the kitchen, he will come and chant 'bear! Bear bear! Bear bear bear bear!' He wants the gummy bear.

The rest are papa, coco (coalie), ball, clock, ku4 (pants), trey (train), bao bao (carry), mum mum. Oh ya,.he oso refused to call me.

they will call eachother 'mama' too.. 'mama' for 'meimei' frm Mattea... n 'mama' for 'MAttea' frm Keona! they will call hb 'mama' at times too.. but hardly call out to me..."MAMA" lor!


y arh.. y kids these days dun wana call the mummy de arh?!?

pegsfur

when ask him to call me he don want to call. only when he like it than he call me mama. or when he is playing than he saw my picture than he will go around the hse to find me. haha.. sometimes i hide beside the bed and he cannot find me keep on MAMA MAMA.

=================

Piggytoh
haha.. ya lor stressed out lor. hehe..
if my son beside yr son must be funny. how to communicate?
 
sbb:: at least he will go look for u... n call out when he cant find u. hehe.

my girls? they, seriously, doesnt bother much if im at hm, which rm im in, etc... only 1% of the time will look for me lor. but..still wun call out to me de!


smtimes i juz thickskin... here them say 'mama' niah...... i juz acknowledge n said 'yes?'.. then they will hv a 'simi daichi' look on their face!
 
fatbobo

now yr girls still young so don worry. as long as they grow up must communicate with them can liao le.
by the way i think opposite attracts? maybe girls are more attached to hubby? thats why boy boy attaching more to mummy?
 
bobo, u should continue to do that! respond when u hear mama.. then they'll learn to associate and learn that u reply when they say mama..

but so cute lah, mama= mei mei and mattea..
 


sbb:: hmmm~ ya i tink it's so.. it's owas 'daddy's girl'... n 'mummy's boy'.... hehe.


oh btw arh.. i tink next yr CNY is end jan.. means say end jan/start of feb is yr of dragon le rite? so if i wana try for a dragon bb.. but wana avoid cny period.. say end feb - mar onwards... when shld start trying arh?
