hmm ur babies don't sleep as much as mine leh! Mine naps pretty often in the day too. Shld they b sleeping a lot still?? She'll sleep at ard 10pm to next day 7am cos I'll rend to wake her to feed b4 work. Then she'll sleep again at my mum's place till ard 9+am. She'll sleep again at ard 11+ till 1pm, then 3-4pm and again at 6-7pm. If she misses one of the naps, she'll b very grouchy. Is she sleeping a lot??

princess
I agree with jul. U need to be patient for such things, mayb let him 'forget' abt swimming for abt 2wks first? When we first brought Shanis to hwa xia for swim, she loves it too. We didn't sign up any package and has been waiting till she hit 6months to bring her to the pool. We tried her on the neckfloat I bought in our bathtub first and she just keeps wailing once the neckfloat is on her and she's not even in water yet. So after that we wanted 2wks later and try again. But let her play with the float and we put on our neck b4 we put it on her neck. Now she seems ok with it though she fuss a little on the 2nd swim in the pool.

Just b patient. My hubby always says baby can sense our frustration, inpatient and watever feelings we have and will also react similarly. I'm one who gets frustrated easily and is very impatient so when I'm that, shanis will cry and cry when I'm carrying her lor.
 


princessxiaomei> den u got to one time dun let him sleep from 7+8pm. keep him entertain. tahan till 9+pm, den i think most likely he can sleep thru liaos

or u keep waking him up at 6+am in de morning. den it will move his sleeping time in de day earlier too

milkyway> ok la. abt de same ma. my boy at nite in total sleeps abt 10-11hrs, day times sleeps abt 3-4hrs. total abt 13-15hrs a day =p
 
rach
gymboree - so the trial fees is that $50 membership fees, is it? what do they mean by 1 free class ah? does the membership entitles to other perks like using their facilities when there is no class conducted?

i think i wld wanna try kindermusik trial before gymboree. any feedback from mummies who have tried? which outlet is better? was thinking the following wkend, coz this wkend i've got something on. anyone wanna join me?
 
hi mummies,

So many activities over the weekend. Im totally bonked out by my boy.

Jul, christina, Gina - Cayden has fun on that day haha eventhou he is so distracted by the gals and Sam. The funnie thing is when sam makes a noise Cayden follows and vice versa. Is so cute. I think one good point on going to classes instead of doing it at home is that the babies get to interact :p

Oh yah, i was telling rach that my hubby happens to know the owner of BJG so if we are interested, i think we can bargain for a better deal. From the threads i guess you guys are not that keen afterall hahaha.

Jul,
you have the contact for the sinseh? my wrist is hurting badly now. Is like you, can hardly use it now..im handicapped!!!
 
Hi Mummies,

I have 1 Nestle Nan HA (expiring 3Dec2010) & 1 Nestle Nan Pro (expiring 30June 2011), willing to let go $10 each.My baby is not taking this brand of FM.PM me if interested.
 
Hi Mummies,

I have over-stocked on Desitin Rapid Relief Cream for my baby, looking to clear @$10 each. Expiry : April 2011.

PM me if interested.
 
wah quite alot of u are SHM? me working mum.
can ask u all, my boy is 8m plus already, but still wakes up every 3hr at night...cos i latch him.. u mummies who latch at night still got this problem? very tiring leh cos i got to work next day.
he sleeps like 9-10pm, wake up 12-1am, 3-4am, 6-7am...sometimes wake up n cry then got to quickly latch, n will fall back to sleep...n i too lazy to pump at night so got to latch him lor...
how are u all doing this for now?
 
milkyway, michelle

i'm opposite from u! sam sleeps sooo little! ard 10pm - 7am.. then maybe 30-45min ard 10am, n 1h-1h15min ard 3pm n that's it! total only 11h!

if he's not in the mood, he sleeps even less! n not counting the nite wakings. maybe he's got 'sleep disorder'???

xmasc

sam n cayden were like the 2 stereotypical naughty boys in school, then the gals were the guai ones. so 'throw face' hahaha

uh oh.. prob too many activities over the weekend n u aggravated it? i just went for follow up tdy. i think it's healing well. hopefully one more follow up on sat n it'll be ok. u wanna pm me ur hp? i'll sms u later. dun have the card with me coz i'm pumping in the study
 
Jul,
Cayden is like same sleeps super little during day time but his nap time is quite zun as in every onehr plus he will be sleepy liao just that he naps only max 1hr each time.

At nite, usually is from 9pm - 11pm then if i heng, fuss a while nia then back to sleep to like 2am, 3am or 4am depending on his mood lor. BUt i suspect his upper two teeth is coming up so now he lagi fussier..grr..

i will pm u my hp right away...machiam like du bi xia (one armed kungfu master - yang guo!)

your wrist hurts due to carrying baby in breastfeeding position too much or you sprained it? in my earlier months, i had very bad wrist pain too, i visited TCM and was given some powdered (absolutely horrible) medicine to take. i finished the full course, but unfortunately, it didn't help at all! if its those "mummy hands" wrist pain, it will take time to go away. nowadays i don't feel the pain anymore, maybe seasoned already!

oh..your hb knows BJG owner? small world...hehe. so did u like the trial class? are you signing cayden up?

jul
sam's sleeping pattern sounds like kimberly's...also sleeps very little! in the late morning and afternoon 1 short nap each...one around 1130am and one more around 4pm if i'm lucky! if not she just naps once during the day only! and every nap is like so short about 1 hr sometimes only half hr. i really envy other mummies babies who can sleep alot! it frees up time for us to do other things and have a break to preserve our sanity!
 
kiki> u might wanna ask de aug mums. dey juz went for the kindermusik trial not long ago i think =p

jeni> erms. me oso working mum. for me i latch my boy once at 9pm, 1am dreamfeed n i go pump, den can last till 6+7am for my boy. den i latch one side n pump de other when i reach office at 8am

jul> hehe. my boy oso sleep abit more den urs only la. but for me. de time he is awake is most of the time in ifc n i m in office. so i not so shiong. =p

sad.gif


for bjg, I may especially is small group. More attentn given to kid ;p I yet to ask whether they can give better price or nt. Heehee u tryg gymoree rite I find it so ex leh
 
<font color="dc143c">xmasc</font>
Gymboree is cheaper than BJG leh..

$399 for 12 lessons..($33.25 per lesson)
BJG is $38 per lesson.($34.20 after 10% discount)

so.. Gymboree is cheaper,,,
but gymboree has a bigger class..whereas BJG is only 4 per class...

Anyway...their admin sucks....
Tell me i not clear or she dun understand me...

I asked: Hi, thanks for your prompt reply.
May I ask what are the available slots??
Do the classes have a start n end date or how affected will my child be if she just joins the class halfway?

How many trainers will be allocated per class??

Thanks..

Reply:
Please advise your preference – weekend or weekdays? Morning or afternoon classes?
There is a start and end date of your classes and your child may join anytime as this is rolling system. There will be a teacher in a class to facilitate the class.

I replied:
hi,
Yes its our first trial.
We've not been there before...
so how much is the trial class?

Weekend afternoons.

What slots are available? We prob need about 8-10 slots.. so u just let me knoe which are the slots and how many vacacies left so we can arrange among ourselves..

Thanks..


Their reply:
Hello
As mentioned in our previous email, we regret that we do not offer private classes. As most of the classes are full, we probably could take one or two only. Please call us at 67355290 for more information.


Thanks

?????? I'm asking whichever slots u have tell me then i'll know rite...

but anyway...seems like they only have 1-2 slots per class left...

so how??

U all wanna go trial together or go on our own??

They have weekday classes as well...
 
<font color="dc143c">LG Prime Playmats</font>

anyone else keen?
Else i'm closing order by Thursday 10pm.
Will proceed to order liaoz..

In future if anyone wants, will be MOQ: 10pcs.
 
rach,
rach,
ooo i recall they told us that we need to pay 290 plus for 9 session mah ( imean provided we sign on that day lah)

hee hee maybe i will try to see whether they can still offer that price or lower if we have more people lah...:p
 
<font color="ff0000">Gymboree</font>
Aiya, they branded ma, so they call the shots lor. HAhaha Seems like they do not want us to go together. So how? We go on our own lor.
 
xmasc
gymboree more ex meh...i don't think so leh. think they're all around that same type of pricing? like rach mentioned, gymboree $399 for 12 lessons ($33.25/lesson), BJG $307.80 for 9 lessons ($34.20/lesson). if there is any cost difference i think it might be in the materials they used which parents can purchased for home use. BJG i think they give it free.

sometimes i have some mixed feelings about such courses. afterall, i don't think i went to these courses when i was at my baby's age. lol! i think my preference is for play kinda learning/interaction if i were to enrol my girl, hence thats why i more inclined to gymboree or maybe kindermusik
happy.gif


i'd also be both hands up if we sept mums can organise playgroups ourselves! that would be best!! our babies get to interact and its free! ahaha...
 
rach, itsy
since there is no group discount also, and maybe their classes are really quite full...so they can only slot in 1 or 2 persons for trial. i guess we just go separately lor...or maybe 2 mummies can try to book together, at least got 'company'?
happy.gif
i think they actually slot in your trial session in their actual class session.
 
itsy
pot luck sounds like a good idea. maybe shd keep it small also...say 5 babies each time?
happy.gif


sheryn
think inside the hse will be a better idea bah... condo function room cannot put baby on the floor to crawl around leh...

So no worries !
 
Anyone going to start feeling their babies fish? I hear that ngoh heer or threadfin is a good bet. thinking of letting her try when she's about 7.5 mths or maybe 8 mths.

I let her have a tiny sip of my Yakult and her eyes opened SOOOO big and she kept grabbing at the bottle, oops. heh. Not recommended but funny.
 
Sept Babies Playgroup/Playgym

Okie so many 'Open-House'! Yeah let's alternate~ <u>Go whose house first </u>?

Anyone else wanna 'Open-House' for our Sept Babies Playgroup / PlayGym???
