When's the CCK people getting together? maybe I can join you girls!
 
paige,
not all bbs will get a fever after the jab. even if have fever, some mild some can get quite high. so depends. PD usually will ask u if u need the paracetamol i think.

my gal is sticking out her tongue too. not to worry, its normal! u probably sometimes stick out your tongue too unconsciously. they're just monitoring and copying our actions.

Melissa (infinity_star),

So i kanna nag until bo bian we try out NAN HA. Heng ar... he is ok with that.

same as urs, starting he poo 4-6times a day.... then 2-3 times. now once aday le. actually poo lesser better ma, dont nid to clean the poo poo, veri smelly leh =P btw he is 3month 5day, i think so... hahahaa.
 
melissa, myfavchoco,
nowadays my gal also poo once a day... occassionally twice. she started off with 6x a day ok! then slowly decreased. thank goodness! coz i was wondering how come her output like more then her input at that time! :p
 
kiki> haha. bb dun really like de mat yet. cos he cant flip long enugh to admire de bright colors ma. but shuld be useful in de long run. cos he can play on it. learn to crawl etc.

i find de parklon mat is not bad. think hubby likes it more. he lies dere to watch tv everyday =p

mamato6js> haha. my number 3 is refering to bb 3mths old. not #3 bb. this is only my #1 n he is driving me nuts. cant imagine having a few more ard =x

he is not exactly guai b4 full mth, but now is like a little rascal. sorry, even i cant help callin him tat. u know juz now at 940, he cried cos dd put him in his cot. den i tok to him, say, oo dd fault hor? 10pm den u go cot sleep urself rite? he seem to understand me, he shake his head n look sad. lol. den dd carry him out, he decided to sleep on dd before 10pm. cos when i went in room at 10pm, he was lying on my hubby sleeping liao. so we put him into cot =p

but still i think he decide to sleep before we put him in his cot to get to sleep himself -_-

my flu was actually ok liao, but it seems it came back again. so sian. my temp everyday hovering ard 37.3, not like its hot, but usually i meansure is like 36.5 one. so zzz -_
 
happy birthday bernice!

thanks for the reminder pam! you get well too k?

mama6 : dosage for paracetamol in children is 10mg per kg body weight. So Jed should be taking 76mg. If you have the standard child paracetamol, its dilution is 120mg per 5mls. So he can actually take 3mls quite safely, 4-6hourly as needed.
 
Paracetamol
Mummies, please note that there are different types of paracetamol. those given by GPs may be different from PDs or hospitals. My PD's medicine is actually stronger than that given by KKH so dosage is different. please check with your doctors for the right dosage
 
<font color="9264ff00"> WaiWai, Prinzess, Vicky</font> - Nice meeting u ladies today again.. sharks.. I seriously need to watch my weight eating like that... hahahah

<font color="9264ff00"> mwerkz</font> - I ever read before that after 1 month, ur baby will have a "magical" night which he/she will not wake up for feed or sleep exceptionally long then means that baby is ready to be "trained" to sleep through the night... After the "magical" night, if baby wakes up, can just feed him water.. then soon he will be able to sleep through the night.. It worked for my #1 but #2 and #3 never work.. #4 just auto sleep through at 2 weeks so never try too...

But for #2, I only train when she was about 5 months old.. when she wake up, just dun give milk.. very tiring cause she will cry and cry but just bear with it for less than 1 week, then she slept through the night already...

Josh just went for his 1st jab last time lor, then GP say give 3ml.
Yay! Welcome to the "Sophie Club"!
Last time I also wondered why can flip 1 way cannot flip other way, but my Hubs ask me if i can run backwards or not.
lol.gif
Doing things 1 way doesn't mean we confirm know how to do it in reverse lor.


<font color="ff3399">Paige</font>
Yes! Go out whole day go back sure concuss, but very tiring for us arh! Where got so many places to go lor.


<font color="ff3399">Michelle</font>
You can buy Sophie from their website (www.sophie.sg/) or buy it from Maternity Exchange. So far haven't seen other places selling it also.


<font color="ff3399">Ling</font>
AIyo, why suddenly got fever?! You take care of yourself yah? Anything pls callllll meeeeee.
</font>
 
<font face="tahoma">
<font color="ff3399">Keegan ownself volunteer to sleep in korkor's room tonight!</font>
I think cos he got no space to flip in that tiny crib in my room, so now wanna sleep in the big cot with korkor. Yippeeeeee! No need to find ways to chase him out liao. Hurhurhur.
</font>
 
shelled> ok. i will go check it out =p

erms. keegan so small can say he wanna sleep with his bro? think my hubby is finding means n ways to chase bb out to his own room too =x
 
pam,
1am-10pm is MORE then magical. keke... lucky you!

shelled,
hey ask u... how do u 'secure' sophie when u bring josh out on a pram? will he like anyhow throw sophie away? i'm suddenly wondering how to secure this sophie. sacaly my gal just fling it away and i didn't notice. i'd feel heartpain if we dropped sophie n lost her :p
 
shelled,
are u sure its a good idea to let keegan sleep with kor kor? does kor kor anyhow kick in his sleep or not? i know some kids (my friend's) can sleep this position, next morning turn 180 degrees!
 
<font color="9264ff00"> mwerkz</font> - For me, cause my bb sleep really late... so any feed and crying for milk before 12am, I will give and feed milk... then he drink full liao will concuss.. my boy needs to be really full at night one.. so he cluster feeds at night... maybe also cause he sleeps through the night so he cluster feeds at night..

<font color="9264ff00"> Pam</font> - Yes!!! 1am to 10am confirm magical loh.. so long..
happy.gif
but hor initially if she cry at night, give water she will still cry one.. just have to tahan... of course dun starve the baby lah.. confirm she drink enough liao then I'm sure she can sleep through the night one.. at least I tested on my kids.. heheh
 
when u all give bb water, how much do u normally give? i thought babies don't drink water one leh? but apparently my old aunties also said must start to give water now or else when they reach the toddler age, they won't want to drink water! is it true???
 
steph> oo. juz now i latch bb at 930pm ma. so now hubby give bb dream feed at 1215 lo. so anything before 6am he wake up, gonna ask hubb stuff water to him =p
 
kiki> ya. i oso read in aug mum tat must start giving bb water liaos. cos water no taste. scared dey dun like it
 
<font color="9264ff00"> mwerkz</font> - good luck...

<font color="9264ff00"> Giving Baby water</font> - For BFd babies, no need drink water one.. but for mine cause will randomly have 1 bottle of FM, so I will give my baby water... After bath, I normally give 60ml of water mix with 5ml of the Woods water. Then after that seldom give water liao...

<font color="9264ff00"> My boy</font> - very funny one.. he himself got a "quota" on how much milk to drink at his last feed... if he never hit that "quota", even if he fell asleep when latching, once I put him down, he will wake up... but once he hits his "quota", he will go into deep sleep and become very very "nua" and I can put him in any position I want and he won't wake up till the next day.. hahahah

But the problem is, his "quota" is never the same... lol.. so I cannot load him with that amount of EBM.. so at night the only thing I do is either latch him A LOT of times or give EBM 120ml, then give 60ml and see if he wants more then give another 60ml... lol

Now he's finally sleeping and will only wake up earliest 7am, latest 11am.. hahaha
 
steph,
60ml? wah..thats like quite a bit. i thought maybe 10-20ml is enough.

your boy can sleep from now till 11am!!??? win liao lor. i'm so jealous!

ok... i go zzz already. gd nite...
 
kiki> i nv give much. since only mean to pacify him. mayb nite one can give more. =p

steph> i wan ur boy. can sleep till 11am. omg. how i wish my allow me to sleep so much. even 7am i happy le lo
 
<font color="9264ff00"> KiKi</font> - Yah.. he ever took like over 240ml in a night loh.. damn scary..

If I'm lucky lah.. 12 plus till 11am... if not maybe 9 plus will wake up... Honestly, this baby is our golden boy... have given us lots of luck and has been reasonably good... Can sleep through the night at 2 weeks.. but also have his fare share of fussing randomly lah...

So I always say, my golden boy give gold (golden poo)... lol I also very "teng" him just bought 2 toys for him at Robinsons.. lol

1 Mini table carousel and one stroller bar.. spent like $80+ loh.. that's why I see got Infantino sale, I a bit heart pain.. scared tomorrow go see similar things that costs a fraction of what I paid.. hahahah
 
<font face="Comic Sans ms"><font color="0000ff">Giving Water</font>

It was reported in the local news last yr tt research hv shown bb under 6 mths old shld not be given any water unless in cases of constipated or other medical needs

The dangerous combination of a strong sucking reflex, and immature kidneys, it's easy for an infant to take in too much water and throw off the body's sodium level enough to affect brain activity resulting in seizure &amp; water intoxication.

It takes very little water to lead to water intoxication in babies and tiny tots. As little as three ounces a day could be too much water for a child under a year old</font>
 
Thanks myfavchoco &amp; kiki.

~myfavchoco~
never heard of soya based FM is no good.. my hubby colleague told him that soya based FM is good for babies also. It's the PD who told us to give bb soya milk.
NAN HA is a brand? never heard of this b4... where u buy from? what type of milk is this? Thanks!
Ya, poo poo v smelly. when he poo 3-4 times a day.. can tell poo is from BM or FM, poo from BM is not smelly. now all is smelly. : (

~kiki~
i gave my boy water cos the soya based FM is more heaty.. but he doesn't drink much, only few gulps tat's all.
 
managed to nap from 1030 till now. shiok! but whole body still aching. argh!

in desperation, i put sam on his tummy to sleep. he'll cry after less than half an hr! after 2x, i put him on his rocker n switched on the vibration to stop him bawling. who knew he slept for 1.5h on it!
 
shelled

seriously looks like the same fish to me!

erm.. 3ml too much lah! that's the thing abt gp, i think.. meds aws seem to be a tad too strong?

paige

i din ask for it but my pd gave me para.

sam's temp hit 38deg after his bath the day after the jab. not sure if bathwater too hot! but i ks gave him 1 dose n no more fever after that.
 
kiki, myfavchoco

huh.. sam's poo went down to abt 2x a day.. then recently up-ed to 3/4x a day! why why why???

shelled

sam can't flip but he can shift himself 90deg so that he's lying breadth-wise in his cot rather than lengthwise! i'm a bit worried tho, coz he'll pull the bumper. scared he'll trap his hand in the cot bars! or get stuck with his head n feet wedged, coz his height's almost the breath of the cot!
 
jen

scary! my mil tried to feed sam with a bottle of water once - think got 60ml, at least in the bottle! - but he din wanna drink. he'll only take water with a spoon.
 
<font face="Comic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Jul</font>

Ya.. my MIL likes to force my children drink water too. Always said last time my DH also drink. But then science has prove her wrong lor. I told her it didn't happen to her child aka my DH, doesn't mean it don't happen. She was just blessed. After hearing e news report tt nite... she dun dare to feed anymore water *haha*. It's too big a gamble for her to take</font>
 
jen

Too bad my MIL din see the report.

I dun mind giving a little bit for taste - just so they dun reject water lor. But I get scared everytime she wants to use a bottle to give water *sigh*
 
oh yeah, MIL keeps mentioning that when SIL's BB had jaundice n they went to Polyclinic to do blood test, the PD also said not to drink water. But SIL went to ask the nurses n the nurses said shd give lots of water to flush ou the jaundice. MIL keeps saying that the nurses are old &amp; experienced &amp; the docs are young n dunno anything.

I find it very weird that she'd rather believe a bunch of nurses than the doc lor. Guess she wants to believe whoever sings the same tune as her? Seriously, I find SIL weird too. Why pay $$ to see doc if she just wants to ask a bunch of old nurses (no offense)
 
<font face="Comic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Jul</font>,

I'm surprised tt yr SIL rather believe old wives tale... In fact hor.. tt's report citing drinking water has been found to increase the severity of newborn jaundice.

I will listen &amp; then read up abit.. esp after working in medical field.. I realize nt all things r as they appears.

Did u get a chance to try bringing Sam out in yr new Peg alone? Can cope?</font>
 
<font face="tahoma">
<font color="ff3399">Michelle</font>
When he smiles means "yes", don't smile means "no". Joshua was the same last time also. So just now after i change him in korkor's room, i wanted carry him to our room to sleep, he dunwan to let me carry, kept dodging instead of stretching out his arms. So I ask him if he wanted to sleep there tonight, he smile at me wor.
Then really, within 10min from the time i left the room, not a single squeak, then fall asleep le.


<font color="ff3399">kiki</font>
Josh is a big boy leh, he wont' throw it around one mah, so never had to secure it. But I guess maybe you can tie a leash/string or smthg around the giraffe's neck?

Keegan is sleeping in korkor's room, but in his own cot. Korkor sleeps in the toddler bed. THey not sharing same bed/cot lah.


<font color="ff3399">jul</font>
I realise kids are very funny creatures. To us the fish may all look the same, but they will specially love one the most. I also dunno why. Like how J play with these chopsticks, and they all look the same one lor! But he's got a favourite one. *faints*

I have the same issues with cot bumpers like you, which is why I'm trying to get the distribution rights for this AMAZING bumper that confirm guarantee baby's limbs won't get stuck between the bars. Hurhur. Wish me luck, okay?
