I cleared my ML already (baby born end aug), took my 6 days childcare leave, now clearing my annual brought forward leave, and will be taking no pay, back to work 1st April
Am already panicking about 1st april when I have to leave her at infant care! She's now still on fully-latch on mode...once in a while, i will bottle feed her once a day if I wake up in time to sterilise her bottles.
<font color="0000ff">cookiezz</font> oh dear, i already paid LengLeng $$$ for my medela stuff from mybreastpump.com spree! very busy last week, so didn't check forum.

Why my baby still can't sleep through the night!! urgh!! i usually dreamfeed her 120ml at 12 midnight. And she always gets up at 430am + for her next feed! so jealous that some of your babies can sleep through!
Just went to centrepoint during lunchtime. Robinsons still having 20% off. Mothercare have some clothes which are 30% and i bought 4 long cotton bottoms for my girl for $39, i find its a good deal.
I wanna sell my breast pads (Pigeon Brand). Kindly PM me if you wanna buy over ok? Thanks!
Wish everyone have a great day at work/home!

kiddo> hehe. i tot i'll miss my boy, but i was so busy, i forget abt him till i went for lunch =x after tat, got used to it liaos. maybe bcos he's at my parents hm now, so i dun feel so worried yet.
when he starts infant care in feb, hoho, think it'll be a diff story. anyway i took 2 days leave in case he cant get use to it
shanice> my last latch on is at 930pm, dreamfeed at 1230am, nxt time he wake up is i force him wake up at 630-640am. wkends he can sleep till 8am+
cookiezz> hoho. at least u are not at wk yet =p
paige> wow. 1st apr. that's when my boy will be starting solid food.
bernice> have u tried not feeding ur baby a few times when she wakes up at 430am for milk? i tried n slowly drag de feeding time back 30mins each time. till now after dreamfeed at 12+, he can sleep till 8am if i dun wake him up liaos. n he wake up not cos hungry, but becos he had enugh sleep, cos i can dun feed him immediately, can still smile n play with me =p

Hi Mummies,
need some advice here. My little one 3months plus has start flipping and also he starts to play with his saliva but i thot this will only start when they start teething. Isn't he too young for that? Im getting paranoid now and not sure is it something common. Can anyone advice me?

Hi everyone!
Long time no write! Did everyone have a good new year?
Advice on baby food.. would you prepare baby purees yourself or get them commercially? Still wondering which way to go since it's sooo troublesome to have to cook them yourself. Lazy mum lah!
Shelled, popiah huh? Very good man, mine is not showing signs of wanting to roll. Tries to crawl but ends up dragging his face on the bed. A very uncoordinated baby.. zzzz. Hope things are better with you guys now!
Jul, xmasc, rach, kiki, your babies look soo cute and pinchable!

Happy 2010 to all mummies!
Have been busy... no time to read forum..
~Rach~
recently i only started to let my boy sleep in aircon on wkends.. more like me want to sleep in aircon. = P
He doesn't like aircon initially.. also good for me cos i dun want my boy to sleep in aircon too often. Also once get used, w/o aircon they can't sleep.
when my hubby's nieces come over my hse to stay, must on aircon and then can sleep.
~xiaowei~
am using freestyle.. like it v much, v light and handsfree!
Find it effective for me in clearing my boobs most of the time, sometimes if can't clear, will let my boy suckle to clear b4 he sleep.
~kiki~
i know what u mean, the 1st time i went hwa xin, the staff let my boy swim for 20mins.
the 2nd time, one of the female chinese aunty "chased" me... saying cannot swim for too long, etc etc. anyway i was not happy with her overall customer service & attitude tat i wrote in to complain abt her.
~xmasc~
my boy loves to play with his saliva nowadays... his hanky & his hands are always wet with saliva..
guess is normal.
I heard b4 some bb start teething at 4mths.
~on swimming~
i brought my boy swimming to hwa xin at Northpt yday, decided to let him try the big pool. Initially put in was ok, once he swam ard & saw other ppl waving at him, he started crying. -_-"'
changed him to individual tub, he's ok already.
am having a headache on how to "train" him not to so "mo sheng". My parents who see him once a week, carried him & talked to him and he cried...
wish my bb will do that to my mil instead, mil pissed me off again! = (

infant care -> just read and knew that a few mummies here will be sending their babies to infant care. Any mummy already did that so far? I will be gg back to work 1st of feb, thus will send my girl (which is abt 4 mths then) to infant care 2 weeks before gg back to work. Super stress now!! As i m still bf her on demand, not sure if i want to cont bf her or wat?? As currently i dun have a good pump to start with also..
i also feel that we've pampered her too much, she need to be accompanied most of the time, and need to carry or bf her in order to make her sleep, ans she hardly sleep during day time...dun think she will get enough attention at the infant care

nope, i didn't buy any thermal wear...i just let her wear swim diapers. just try to go on bright sunny day and in afternoon when water is warmer. but honestly, the water was still cold and i know my gal felt the difference, i can see it in her face. she was pouting pouting abit at first, but with lots of assurance as i kept telling her 'its ok...mummy is here'. and she was ok! didn't cry.
oh..don't just immediately put her in, make sure you carry her, try to lower her feet into the water a little bit to give her warning that the water is not her usual warm bath water. if not if bb gets a fright, will end up crying for sure!

hehe..thanks. past few days, attended a few New Yrs parties, ppl kept ticking and pinching my gal's cheeks!! lol.

i don't dream feed my boy, last meal of the day is latching at 9+pm, then sometimes he wakes up at 3-4am, die die must drink milk to sleep. i read somewhere that dream feed may disturb bb's sleep, so i only feed on demand in midnight...
delfine:
i used to make puree for #1, have never fed her commercial one. invest on a good blender, it is very easy to make puree. u can consider buying Baby Cubes for storage

my #1 starts attending childcare centre today... i accompanied her today. until now i'm still traumatised by the crying of other kids... can cause headache. my #1 also cried after playing for 2 hours... so worried what if i leave her alone
Hi all mummies, a belated happy new year!
My boy at week 16, the very day he could do a total flip on his own. *excited* But soon I realise the 'trouble', of him calling for help cos he still can't flip back on his own yet. lol
He is exactly 4 months today! I am thinking of bringing him to public pool to swim when the weather is more sunny. But how do I bathe him at the public toilet?

I tried the method of not feeding her when she wakes up ard 4am. I carried her and tried to make her sleep, she did sleep but 10mins later she began moving around and was awake again. Sigh! No choice liao, so had to feed her. Fed her then she went back to sleep.
--Joopz--
He looks so happy!! Oh, the picture taken is sharp, good camera you're using!

LTNS.. how are you?? I was just thinking bout u tt day..but cannot rem yr nick.. only rem tt lady from Germany *haha*
I used to make my own puree for all my 2 children & will do so for Jed. It's not really v troublesome. I will make 1 wk puree over e wkend cuz tt time is FTWM & freeze it. I gathered frozen homemade food are still better den commercial ones. But there's my view only lah. I just started Jed on oatmeal cereal yesterday. Will stick to e 4 days rule to see if he has any allergy b4 I proceed to add in puree.
U jus hv to gently steam e food & blend it w lil of e cooking liquid (except for carrot). Here's some website w great recipe. Alternative you can get the book - Top 100 Baby Purees 100 Quick and Easy Meals for a Healthy and Happy Baby by Annabel Karmel. I've got this book & am planning to buy her other books from amazon.

not sure if i got the energy to make my own puree after i go back to work.. and i'm sure gonna get bombed by my mum again about freezing the puree. She sure says give fresh ones better.. now giving FBM already got so much nags from her lor.. says will be to liang for bb's stomach, may cause her to LS, etc.. my gal's poo poo has been yellowish and very liquid but she only poo once a day and it's a lot and could get her clothes and even mine stained!!
hope i can pyscho my mum with frozen puree else will have to teach her how to make puree.. cos i dont think i had puree when i'm a baby... think it's only porridge.
and my mil even best! went out lunch with her on sun and she actually fed my gal with drops of cheng teng soup!!! i was totally stunt and dont know how to react and she says can start my gal on porridge already.. i told her i will wait till she's 6month. every time i meet her, she ask me to give plain water.. guess now she will start to nag me on porridge!! T_T

cookiezz,
The blender I have is the Braun. I can't remember exactly, go home and check tonight then let you know. My experience tells me that get one that is as simple as possible, cos you don't want the food got stuck in the blender.
Delfine,
Same as Jen, I made puree over the weekend and freeze them. On weekdays, I would do fruit puree, cos no need to cook, just blend. Never fed my #1 with any commercial puree, hubby and I don't like the idea of commercial puree. They are very easy to make. Besides the websites that Jen shares, I would like to recommend 1 book also, but can't remember the title already. Let you know later. And yes, Annabel Karmel is good, I got some of her books too.

HI dearie! Long time didn't login hor?
Josh grew up on a steady diet of commercial baby food, cos Hubs + ILs + my dad all told me it was too much trouble to DIY. Plus, the bugger has "exquisite" taste, so he won't even eat the same thing twice on the same day! Baby food jars gives us the variety without the hassle lor.
As for Kee, I will be making some simple purees if he isn't as "exquisite" as korkor.
<font color="Ff3399">milkyway</font>
My MIL told me last time, the parents of last generation try to faster feed porridge/rice so that the baby can drink less milk (cos mostly on FM so it's a separate cost). It's also more convenient when baby starts to eat so they can 1 shot cook for everyone.
In fact, she said my hubs stop drinking milk by the time he was 1 yr old. They change him to milo instead. Cheaper and "better".
It's probably the same reason why their entire family is like "commercial food also food, don't bother to make purees yourself lah". My MIL actually told me not to bother with purees at all. Just give porridge. (But ended up Josh hated porridge so he took rice that was softened with soup.)
And 4 day allergy rule?? WHAT RULE?? Just give and let them eat lah, at most lao sai a while lor. Used to it liao then ok already.
Seriously, last generation's methods are really very different from what we're supposed to do now...

4 days allergy rule to help elimate stuff bb might be allergic to if any. It might nt b as simple as lao Sai, it might be outbreak of rashes, swelling or even shortness of breath . If u add all e new stuff together & feed den u wun know what actually cause e allergy. Den some allergy takes more den 24hr to surface.
But again this is my own way of doing it lah...

If u add all e new stuff together & feed den u wun know what actually cause e allergy. Den some allergy takes more den 24hr to surface.
But again this is my own way of doing it lah...

shelled,
THe 4 days rule is important for those baby with parents who sufffes allergy/asthma/eczema.
I personally think puree is a lot more nutritious than porridge. In fact, I seldom cooked porridge for my #1, it's puree, then to soft rice (rice soaked in soup), then rice.

re: not feeding in the nite
i think there're 2 schools of tot
one is that waking up for milk is just a 'bad habit' that can be broken by not feeding.
but the other is that bb is not ready to sleep thru. bb still needs the nutrients n calories so shd just let bb naturally sleep thru.
for sam, i din try to make him skip nite feeds. i was too thankful when he stopped sleeping past 3/4am! i just fed him when he wakes.. like 12am, 2am, 4am, 6am.. coz need to feed every 2h due to his reflux.. then he auto skip feeds one by one until he sleeps from 10pm - 6am

milkway - haha do we share the same mother??? i haben told my mum abt my fbm "collection"! i can already anticipate wad she will say lor! so most prob will nv let her know, juz defroze first lor. when i first started to put ebm in the fridge she already nag wor. so tt y i wanna prepare her for the frozen puree.
ur mil also very one kind hor? haha mine like a bit scared of me liao! cos she knew i will decide if she gets to see her precious grandson anot! so amazing leh, now she actually heeds my advice and cook w less oil n msg! kaoz last time nag for a few yrs she dun listen, now got grandson then guai guai follow... scare ur mil lor. tell her hv feed sugar to babies till then are much older cos if they keep having sugar, then sugar rush liao super hyper ah! like my niece...
jen - i also think frozen puree is better than commercial ones, cos still hv nutrients mah, n we can control wad goes in. tis is how i psycho my mum into buying tt ebm in the fridge is better than fm cos no preservatives wor! but then commercial ones got a lot of interesting flavours! just bot a few bottles the other day! think its more for satisfying my curiosity then for baby to eat!
shelled - haha i will use both commercial n home made ones bah cos if go out, those food jars very convenient leh.
kam - thx for the recommendation!
