Morning! Back at work today. Told myself not to dream dream dream about being SAHM... work and save more money. One day at a time!
Gbh,
Thanks. Will try out thick ones and see if it looks better.
Rurucat,
What vege did you use for the pork & veg stock? Have to test indiv veg as puree first before using in the stock? Did you make a lot then freeze in portions & how much per portion? Sorry 101 questions. First time very lost ;p
Wendees,
Thanks for the feedback! Have not heard of Hipp rice cereal. Where did you get that from? Lucky you mention that Nestle Cerelec has gluten! Ai yo I was still thinking of giving her that for her first few feeds
Brandedfans,
Your gal so cute! She has a very pretty face! Thanks for the links. Will check them out [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] My girl looks like a boy. Everywhere we go people will ask "Boy??" Even if I dress her in pink. tsk tsk...
Hee hee.. but still want to take part in contest just for the fun of it all! Hope I can make it to Kembangan before the category is full. Weekdays very hard to go cos I don't live near there.
Juski!
Sorry forgot all about the diapers. I would like to order soon. And hopefully they can deliver next week when I am on leave. You want to join in? Mummies living near Woodlands want to join in? http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/581296/4580805.html?1287216986

XLH,
Take care and take more Vit C and water.
Brandedfans,
Their sleeping pattern will change from time to time... my girl has started to wake up in the middle of the night for the past 2 nights [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] won't sleep unless I feed her. Don't know growth spurt or trying to tell me it is time to feed her solids ;p

Hi syzygy6,
Yes, u are right, ur baby is ready for her solids if she suddenly needs to wake up for a night feed.
The veg and pork stock is made w carrot, corn, onion and pork ribs. I cooked them for 2hrs, then keep the stock in 100ml container. I use around 1.5 tsp of blended white/brown rice for 100ml of stock and cook in a mini slow cooker.
I only tested carrot as a puree for my gal, the rest of the ingredients are not tested. I made sure my gal is 6mths old (Calender months, not by weeks) and after she has taken well to a variety of veg and fruit purees.
Since ur gal is ready to start weaning, the 1st step is to give her rice cereal mixed w FM/BM. Use around 1tsp rice w 3 tsp cereal 1st (abit watery) and try that out for around 4 days. Initially ur gal may find the swallowing motion difficult but u have to perserve. My gal was like 'yucks, what is that!!!", but now she opens her mouth big big when she sees her bowl. Hee...
After she taken well to plain rc w milk, then u start w veg purees - i tried asparus, baby spinach, sweet potato, pumpkin, carrot, sweet pea, potato w her. For fruits - avocado, pear and apple.
Start freezing w 15ml cube 1st, after she taken well, can freeze 30-45ml cube liao.
Mommies, please comment and add to my info as this is what i learn from books. Additional info for all to learn!

Hubby and i indirectly helped to "publicise" also leh... he was pushing one trolley, then me another.. the parents that we went past will whisper "wow.. cheap huh.. let's go and see".. whahahah. =X
Wendees & Jasda,
Is it bettle to spoon feed them or let them drink from milk bottle huh?
The 1st time i let her tried semi- solid, cereal was last Sunday where I spoon-fed her cos she is 6 mths & 3 weeks old liao. So dun wan to delay any further. Scare she not enough nutrients.
As I am in the midst of switching STage 2 FM to her, is it ok to mix the cereal in her FM and let her drink?
As at now the FM consist of 3 scoops STage 1 FM & 2.5 scoops STage 2 FM. So if plus the rice cereal (Friso Creme) into it for 1 feed per day, is it ok?
DAZZ,
Share Share, what promo for PAMPERS in boxes which u stocked up?

ghb, my gal always cry without fail everytime she needs to nap in day time or sleep at nite. Really raise white flag. Don't understand why lo. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
My gal sleeps quite early, like 7pm till 2am, no issue. But from 2am, she will eh eh eh and flipping with eyes closed. Then from 4am, will make big cry for milk, then drink 2 oz, then sleep till 5.15am, will surely wake up and cry, then must walk out from the bedroom, then she will stop crying. My mum said she is too playful (ye xin). My mum always teased her as if she got to go to work, or rooster, wake up all the people in the kampung. Once she cry, then gor gor will wake up also. So, i only manage to sleep like 2 - 3 hrs a day, coz by the time she sleeps, I still clearing my work and do some cleaning etc, then sleep ard 12.30am or 1am, time for her to eh eh eh liaw... faint!
SG_SC, my gal slept very little. During the day nap, she will cry 15 mins to fall asleep, but nap 5 mins. Cry 15mins is already with pacifier in the mouth, eye closed (can't open coz battery flat kind), small pillow press at the ear (coz gor gor very very talkative, and big volume, think she find the gor gor very irritating), and hug and coax, still cry like kena bee bite. Then nap 5 mins, laughing again. 2 hrs later, again 15 mins cry, then nap 5 mins nia. Really clueless lo. Tiring rite? She seems not tired, but i really tired lo [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]
syzygy6, my gal also very boy look, like the bro 100% stamping face. So, must wear skirt/dress, plus a hair clip, then no more ppl ask boy or girl. Faintz! I knwo how you feel, so i bought her many Laura Ashley dresses. quite cheap i find, about $10 to $12 from kidsngifts. You can contact her for discount price.
I also want to let my gal go contest ler, but i am so far away. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] So tempted! Sigh!

piglet... oh, i bought the Pampers Active pampers. Comes in box of 2 packets. For M size is 88pcs/pack so per box is 176pcs for S$48.80. Which is like S$0.28/pc lo. As the size increase, the no.of pcs decrease so made it more expensive if count in terms of per pc price but still cheaper! If i remember correctly, L size is about 76pcs/pkt so about S$0.32/pc.

Hi Piglet,
Hmm... if u read the angmoh book, the whole point of weaning is to slowly train your baby to eat 3 meals a day and 3 bottles of milk by 1 year old using a training cup.
The initial motives for weaning are:
1. Baby learns to swallow
2. Baby eats solid for the extra nutrients that BM/FM are unable to give.
By 6-8mths, baby still eat puree food but by the time 7-9mths, must start to eat more 'lumpy' food and by 9-12mths, baby is supposed to feed herself/himself (hand-eye-mouth coordination), v messy meal but necessary for motor development.
BUTTTTT.... all that being said, we know that it is impossible to follow the book to the T, especially when we work and the caretaker has their own style and method of caring. So we just do the best we can and just take things at a pace we can tahan.

Ruru,
thanks for that, so helpful. Thinking of printing out what u say to paste on my fridge.
Piglet,
re spoon feed vs bottle feed - I feel is for convenience for caregivers. Cos my boy goes to ifc, and my boy can't sit properly by himself, so meantime, will let ifc bottle feed cereal for him. I'll do spoon feeding myself at home in the evening.
re from stage 1 to stage 2, probably to check with friso. Cos I checked with mamil, one feed a day should be solely stage 2. Cos if just half of the feed is stage 1, half is stage 2, the caise of allergy, if there is, may not be very clear if it's bcos of stage 1 or stage 2.
thanks for that, so helpful. Thinking of printing out what u say to paste on my fridge.
Piglet,
re spoon feed vs bottle feed - I feel is for convenience for caregivers. Cos my boy goes to ifc, and my boy can't sit properly by himself, so meantime, will let ifc bottle feed cereal for him. I'll do spoon feeding myself at home in the evening.
re from stage 1 to stage 2, probably to check with friso. Cos I checked with mamil, one feed a day should be solely stage 2. Cos if just half of the feed is stage 1, half is stage 2, the caise of allergy, if there is, may not be very clear if it's bcos of stage 1 or stage 2.
piglet,
re from step 1 to step 2
I called dumex hotline yesterday. They told me to introduce one feed of step 2 everyday for 3 days, the other feeds will be step 1. Then increase to two feeds of step 2 for next 3 days. If allergy occurs, like severe diarrhoea, vomitted or rash, then continue with step 1, cos step 1 can be taken till 12 months. Not sure if this is the guide for other formula brands.
