Hello everyone, am from the sept mummy thread but my girl was so comfy, she was born on Oct 2nd instead of 29th Oct. Hehe.. I am a FTWM
My girl does not have a lot of hair so ppl often mistaken her as a BOY -_-" even if she is dressed in pink or with a BIG BOW headband. I've not cut her hair before. Now she got this patch of "missing hair" they say is "gu1 gu1 de lu4"? Say aunty have to buy shoe for her so that the hair will grow. Anyone got experience with this? Just curious how long it will take the hair to grow back..
Any of you started to give your bb purees??

Hello mommies! Good morning! Yesterday brought my bubba for his vaccination and he decided to cry when he sees the doctor. Doc said die lah..recognise already...so sad to see him take another shot.
Hi Gina! My bubba is also early. Meant to be Nov 16 but came on Oct 27 and a bit of a drama that day too. Anyway. the real drama starts post delivery I think. he he.
Max's hair is not growing much, I didn't cut his hair and he had patches where its bald. My mum told me to shave it all. I am not brave enough.
I started giving Max cereals and maybe I will start with porridge next week. I don't think I will start puree until later...

Morning mummies!!
It's the kind of weather to just stay in bed the whole day! YX seems to be having this very idea in mind!!
AND YESH! I did it!! Drove YX to expo yesterday and even 'jagar' in the rain! A challenge and I did it!!
Yep yep had fun meeting up with the mummies and babies. This YX was sooooooooooooo excited that she only slept at 11pm!! And woke up with a nightmre (think over stimulation) at 1am and started singing at 5.30am!! Crazy woman!!
Anyway, I hope she did learn a thing or two from guai guai Charlotte and Megan on how to behave like a girl, although she showed ZERO sign of learnign anything there and after we reached home...she was juat bouncing and restless!

hello mummies..it's a nice, rainy day isn't it? if i ain't a mummy..haha..i'd be spending the whole day sleeping! snapping back to reality - been up since 9am...the Energizer's day has begun. The Dad is busy lowering her cot today - and she is on my lap watching me key in this post..
as for her sleep...she has gone from 13hr night rests to just 8hr..and still doesn't nap the entire day..at best, a 5min shut eye or so. but nothing i'd call a NAP. thus..i am kinda looped with feeding/sleeping issues...
hippo >> It was the PD who told us to wean her as her weight has stagnated. She is still 6kg today mind you! Like most Asian parents, we had the nervous complex when we couldn't see her successfully feeding herself with the mashed stuff. Further reading of BLW actually says not to do that...I called the PD and consulted again WRT her weight! He thinks it's likely to be a result of her high level of activity (he refrained from the word hyperactivity...) and lack of naps/sleep. I am trying my best getting her to sleep and nap..but this girl just can't. Very vexing...meanwhile, I am gonna attend a first aid course just so that I gain more confidence letting her handle normal food types...as for my bb cereal - much like I had suspected, I would be the one consuming it!
natalieL >> i won't be so worried if dre is closer to 7kg..that's a magic no for PDs actually..but good job with megan..i left my weighing scales alone for awhile. but have brought it back recently cos her PD is getting a little concerned already. 6kg for nearly 2 mths!
tien >> yah!! i hope i found the right dh...i don't wanna use the spoon but like i explained abv..couldn't help feeling anxious. anyway, we have stopped using the food but ply our plates with her food (e.g. broccoli) she seemed more keen picking things on our plates than hers...this afternoon was much better..but still avoiding the bb cereal. u may be right that she has associated weaning with the loss of latching..demands to be latched right after her makan....but it was all comfort suckling..
vin >> thanks for yr tips...i will try it out. we must keep trying..and..vin...Riona looks so grown up!! and so much like you!!! i love her big sparkling eyes!
sotong >> i gave her her small bowl of cereal..no spoon..she fists it and smear it all over her bib and refused to have anything to do with that. doesn't like anything mashed..
mie >> I took the noon feed, latched her halfway and then, we proceed to the weaned stuff. she is hungry gorilla by then actually..it went alright for the first day..downhill since then..and today, so-so only...

hi all, see that most of you had bought a lot of things from baby expo. Don't really need anything at the moment, so I am not going to squeeze with the crowd. Any mamypoko sale?
Speaking of bringing baby out, I brought Elgin out to the shopping centre for the first time today! The clinic is at a shopping complex, so while waiting for his turn, we went to the food court to have lunch, and my hubby and I took turns to walk around the shopping centre. He enjoyed the live concert, and looking at stuff. I'm so happy! Gonna bring him out more.
Regarding leaving baby in car seat alone behind, I figured that he won't cry if he just had his feed, and is not in a crying mood before getting into the car. So far, I've only driven him about 10 min alone in the back numerous times, and only one or twice he fussed. One time was because he had been crying a lot and I did not calm him down before putting him in the carseat. The other time he cried, but he managed to calm down when I kept talking to him.
Mummies, just remember to stay calm and don't kancheong if your baby cry. Nothing will happen if he cries for awhile, but if you are distracted, it's really bad!
Re weaning
Don't feed your baby Si Sen brown rice or whatever if he has sensitive skin. I bought it because my hubby was pressuring me to get baby food at a small ntuc, and that was the only one available that didn't have milk, and suitable for 4-6 months. I just found out from the doctor that there are chinese herbs in it. Wah biang, no wonder lah! During my confinement period, I had chinese herbs every single day and my son had super bad rashes. Then not sure why he suddenly had bad eczema again, and then turn out it's the cereal. In the end, I went to buy organic baby rice cereal for 4-6 months at the same shopping centre. HOpe this works.
xoxo: Elgin's weight also not increasing at right speed. Doc says he should be 300g heavier. Now he has to take fish oil to supplement.

Blessedcyn: the baby fair ends today at 8pm. Nothing much to buy actually unless you want to buy Heinz food jars n diapers. I bought the pampers m size at 3 for $49.

Angeline : it's del-care
py: yes u can! I gave last week and my boy loves alot. Mash until puree den before u feed him pour in about 10 to 20 ml bm and stir u will get this very nice carrot porridge look a like thing. Haha. Everything I feed my boy I will taste myself first and it's indeed tasty!
Tien : when I feed my boy sweet potato purée he will cry loudly thereafter. I think cos sweet potato made him tummy ache cos he kept farting. Adult eat sweet potato will poo easily so I think same for bb. So for my bb I wun be feeding him sweet potato anymore. How ur bb react to it?

Tien: yup! I usually feed half feed before intro cereal coz if not he's too hungry to wait for the spoonful to reach him and will be frantic. After half feed at least he's bit more patient. hehehe!
