*looks down at the last letdown n wills it to continue*
 


Jul,
Oh yes, my XY is a screaming baby. She loves to scream, in (very) high pitch. And loudly, so loud that can wake my boy up. Happy she screams. Angry she screams. Wanna sleep she screams. Hungry she screams. Though I must say I feel better to hear her screaming than crying.
 
<font face="Comic Sans Ms"><font color="0000ff">Jul</font>

Her BP up yet? All my children are on Happy Bellies Cereal. Need to stock up liao so if her price is gd den I can just get from her, dun need to buy from USA

I've finally succeed to reduce my pumping interval to 5.5.. so happy



<font color="aa00aa">Mixing EBM w FM</font>

How do we do it huh? Do I warm up EBM &amp; make FM separately den combine? I need to clear my FBM stash so m gng to give my gal EBM too. But she refuse to take EBM on it's own leh.. must mix. I've been mixing it w fresh goats milk so now gng to try FM</font>
 
jul
i think sam realised he had a voice thats why he has been screaming/shouting lately. hahaha my gal does it too sometimes...sometimes she's in her playpen talking loudly to herself!

can pass me the link to the BP? thanks.
 
jen
thats what i usually do previously when i still expressed BM. i warm up separately then combine the FM according to the recommended proportions.
 
jul,
my baby has already start drooling since last week. Piang, is like endless de and worse thing is that he dun want to put bib. i buy so many nice nice one and when i try to put on one dun noe how come he realise and start screaming...grr..
 
kiki,
im more than happy if my son sleeps longer during his naps haha just that i realise if he sleeps ard 8pm (2 hours) then he wil be wide awake around 4am (*of course in between he will still wake up wanting to drink milk) which means i have like very very little rest....

anyway should let them continue their sleep if possible
 
jul> cos he suddenly realise tat they can tok very loud =p my boy does tat when he gets too excited too. i got to pat his chest to calm him down =x

xmasc

sam doesn't seem to mind his bibs. dunno whether it's b/c i've been using them during feeding times for the past few weeks (i used to use hanky but he got so fidgety that the hanky kept getting brushed away), or mayvbe my bibs are cheapo n thin so not so hot n uncomfy?
 
xmasc,
you bringing ur boy to public pool?

tat time i went to harbourfront baby swiming, its provide everything , dun have to bring ur own neck float..

i too bot the neck float &amp; washable waterproof diaper... but i will let my son , swim at our bath tub... my hubby keep want to bring bb to public pool, im very worried about hgyene ...
 
tlisa (tlisa) ,JUL,Michelle,


wat make u tink tat new company u cant take leave? isit during probation or so? u got the point.. i almost miss out this point...

my boss already blackmark me.. so there wont be turning point for me if i stay on.. unless i accept &amp; bear with it ti the last...

sigh.... politic..
 
xmasc,
maybe our babies are big in size tat y they cant sleep thru the nite with empty tummy... u noe wat i mean... big cc sigh....

how is ur son sleeping style ah?
 
kiki

oops forgot to reply u

wean machine is for mashing food to puree. it works like a garlic press. just cut the food into small pcs then press it thru to get mashed up bb food.
 
flower

a lot of companies dun allow leave during probation lor.

another pt is that some companies need u to earn ur leave. eg u have 14 days leave per yr. but u need to work 1 yr to get 14 days, cannot straightaway take 14 days, u know what i mean?
 
jul
oh ok...but it must be quite alot bigger then a garlic press rite? hmm..i think use blender easier! :p

flower
if u just join the new company then so fast start to take leave will kanna marked too leh.
 
flower4,
--neck float
yah i went to their branch initially at punggol but then i get pissed by them on the hard selling. And my hubby says dun "spoil" baby too much haha so we trying up the SRC heated pool and see how.

--sleeping pattern
this little fellow of mine now at nite will usually sleep at 10pm to 1am then wake up , fidget..then suckle then sleep to around3-4am. If im lucky till 5am plus..haiz..

jenifur
i tried to buy the brownrice sishen powder from euyan seng. they rec baby to eat only when they are six months. Hmm how do you change the baby eating pattern as in when would u feed them with the cereal?
 
I guess this is quite ridiculous.. but I can't sleep b/c I'm thawing my first ever batch of FBM

This time following my hubby on his working trip. The other time I didn’t pump on the plane as I slept throughout the flight. It was 7hrs flight so still ok la. This time is 14 hrs so die die gotta pump. The last trip, I pumped in the hotel room once in the morning before leaving and at night when I came back so it was about 12 hours. I threw away the milk as the room had no freezer, fridge only so it’s impossible to keep. Didn’t dare to ask the receptionist if can put in the hotel’s freezer as I’m afraid their freezer not clean, pple can touch n contaminate the milk. Really wasted.

--pamelia—

Was at toa payoh this evening around almost 10pm. Were you at your shop? I was walking along the HDB office area and saw your husband outside the shop. Didn’t have chance to say hi to you as was pushing baby in stroller, husband was rushing home. You changed your shop décor lighting isit?

What is the Air Dry bag you got? I need one to keep my pump. Now I’m using ziplock bags.

After 4 months, is it can give baby apple juice drink?
 
bernice
i was at TPY too.. had dinner with my parents at Crystal Jade and walked ard the area till 9+!! i even showed my sis Pam's shop and told her got promo for rebonding.. haha

So air dry bag is better than keeping the pumps in ziplock bags? i just a lock and lock to keep the pumps.. so should i get an air dry bag also since the container will retain moisture which is not gd also.
 
--milkyway--

Haha! didn't see you ley! Almost wanted to eat at crystal jade but end up at Ichiban Sushi!

My pumps still abit wet after keeping in the ziplock bags and the lock-in-lock container ley. The air dry bag should be better ba..
 
bernice
haha.. i wanted to eat at ichiban but my parents dont want so end up at crystal jade.. lol

so mayb i should consider air dry bag also.. envy u going holiday again...
 
Jul,
I won't say it's "normal" or "abnormal", cos my boy never done that at all. Each baby is different in term of how to express himself/herself bah.
 
kiki> keke. my boy now 4mths6days old =p cannot eat yet. another less den 2mths. anyway wun expire so fast, juz buy some and store, c when he can eat, than let him eat. cos it sounds so cute. dunno where sells it =x

anyway i buy like 1 of each item ma, 1Xbrown rice, 1Xoatmeal (these 2 can eat now le), den 1Xgreens, 1Xbanana, 1Xapple (all these is for 6mths onwards, juz buy and let him try abit of each, to see which he prefers)

jenn> hehe. 6.50 to 7.50, means it's cheaper when u buy it urself overseas, no meh?

jul> lol. seems like i'm buying alot than =x cos my boy is a greedy boy remember i told u so =x den hubby see him so cute, ask me buy more for him to eat, so i buy lo =p

flower4> bo bian one la. seriously hor. is becos my company is sort of govt linked, but even so, my appraisal was also badly affected, cos i dissapeared for abt 3mths to go n deliver, since they got to let me go for my leave, they juz got to get it back from me from somewhere else. so nvm lo. all mums have to face this prob whether we like it or not.

pamelia> think i shuld get a air dry bag too. now use ziplog to bring the pumps to wk. at ofice i use lock n lock container, but cos de container too big to trpt to n fro from wk, i dun take de container hm =x
 
kiki,
i usually pick silly titles for my boy so that reading times are more fun. if you like to read zany stuff like me, you can consider dr seuss and sandra boynton. now that #1 is older, we've started reading charlie and lola. very nice graphics and so very funny! unlike jenifur, i always get my boys' books (90% of the time) from borders. i sign up for their mailing lists and they're always emailing you discount coupons - 30% off, 40% off, buy 1 get 2nd at half price ... etc. so i do book shopping once every 2-3 months whenever there are coupons.

i'm also bringing my boys to bintan, but only in april. booked my trip during last year's natas fair. i also think it's better to try somewhere nearby since this is my first trip abroad with a toddler + baby in tow.
 
pam

wahaha got mini-reno.. i go see on sun

kam

my mum told me yest that only talkative bbs do that - meaning sam is talkative haha. think she's rather proud of his idiosyncracies.. everything also find it v cute

michelle

not really lah. how long can 1 pack of puff last? even if he doesn't wanna eat, u eat lor!

but i'm only buying cereal mah. i wun eat the cereal so better dun buy too much first hee

sandwich

i like the 'classics' like sleeping beauty, pinnochio, hansel n greta.. maybe i shd get those for sam. i'll emjoy reading them too
 
BABIES SCREAMING N TALKING
eh mine screams n squeals all the time! his happy screaming is different from the screams he makes when he is angry / hungry. then last nite 3.30am i heard him talking to himself! then started laughing n squealing at himself. arrgh!! thk goodness he fell baxk to sleep himself. nowadays when he wakes up he no longer cries for me. he will look at his cot mobile n started to talk to the caRS hanging on it.
 
Re : GD Program

Have any mummies started on GD program for their babies? Would like to hear feedback. Tot of starting my boy on this program
 
I need advice!!!

I bought something from a spree. When I went to the organiser's place to collevt my stuff, she wasn't home. Told me that last minute she got to bring her kid to the hospital and she offered to mail me my stuff. That was b4 X'mas, till now, I haven't receive the things and she is uncontactable! How?!? Is there anything I can do? Or I can only count myself Sway to meet such irresponsible organiser?
 

<font face="comic Sans ms"><font color="0000ff">Xmasc</font>

I'm nt very sure bout those chinese brown rice as I've nv given them to my children. But ya.. I recommend u to start feeding when bb is 6mths old too. Hope you are nt mistaken tt I'm starting Jed early. Jed is 1 of e older bb in tis thread as he's a preemie. He just turn 6 mth old on 03-Jan.

I started Jed w 2 tablespoon of Cereal &amp; will gradually increase till able to replace 1 feed of EBM. Anyway Solid foods in the early stage are meant for practice only.


<font color="aa00aa">Michelle</font>

Yupz, it's slightly cheaper but gota hold spree or buy alot to justify e shipping cost so v ma fan leh. I rather buy from BP unless there's a demand for spree.


<font color="0000ff">Sandwich</font>

Oh didn't know borders has such great discounts.. I shld go sign up for their mailing list. I'm buying mainly online as I'm v lazy to go shopping w e kids in tow esp to Orchard area.

Yr boy like Dr. Seuss? Duno why my gal dun seem to enjoy his books, I bot 2 &amp; are all in "cold storage". She's into Maisy &amp; Little Men now.


<font color="aa00aa">KiKi</font>

np, u pay me when u collect. I've yet to receive any confirmation from her though. Hopefully we still qualify for e free delivery.</font>
