Babycoco,
Thanks for the info.. The doc at polyclinic also told me conversion ratio is 17.1 but she seems unsure so I doubted her words a bit haha.. ya, she mentioned 201 is alright. Just wonder if I should take him for blood test again tomorrow. At PD, he didn't cry at all when blood was drawn, at polyclinic, he screamed and wailed(must have hurt coz the nurse squeezed so hard and in the end gotta prick another time).

Hello mummies! Just woke up yawnzz.. I am having a bb girl, still waiting for her to come out! hehe.. I am not gonna cook today. cuz yesterday just stayed at home, so today must go out! Go out every alternate day lol..
Thinking of either plaza sg or jurong point.
I do realize bb's movement is getting less nowadays, think not much space for her liao.. she still moves around and still can feel her hiccups everyday, but the movement not as strong as b4. Hope she decides to come out later or tmr or latest by Monday la!

Pillow, I love the school!! especially their art programme, music/dance/art. I left because it's too far away from my place. The school has lots of good resources/ toys, i would say children there are lucky because i know not all the schools will want to invest money in buying new toys/ books etc. Nowadays a lot of kindergarten are getting very commercialized. very sad T_T
Totally like their art programme! It's so fun even i like it. haha! The children art work is very innovative =D
For their academic curriculum, then i would say everywhere is the same, most importantly is the teacher that is in charge.

phy - the herbs that u mention in your post... I also use it on my boy... I put some in the ang bao & place it beside him... & also bath him with it...
Dun know whether is it the herbs that help cos when we went for the 2nd review he's jaundice level went down liao...
We also sun-tan him as long as the sun is good...
But what I heard is to BF BB with jaundice cos BM easier to digest so BB will poo more & flush off the bilrubin in them...
Irene - So how many pill of fenugreek are u taking? I'm taking 2 only...thought of increasing the amt.

Understand how depressed some of u mummies feel. for my case, also same.. MIL pops by at least 3-4 times a week, and i am doing confinement at my parent's house, i feel that they shld have the courtesy to call before coming which they dun.
when they come and bb is sleeping in my mum's room, MIL also keep walking in and out of her room.. (as if her own house) like waiting for bb to wake up so she can carry. once, they came at 8pm+. BB sleeping, so they were sitting in my house till 10pm+ and i was so tired i wanna sleep instead of entertaining them. in the end, my mum has to hint to them that we are tired and bb needs to be fed soon. who knows, she doesn't get the hint and said "oh, means after bb feeds she will be awake rite? we wait for her lor.." like one day nv carry her cannot meh? and they not paiseh to disturb us for soo long meh?
now i feel very irritated everytime they pop by, when they come and bb is awake, they will carry her, i will show a black face and hide in my room to cry. just cannot control.. once, my MIL saw me crying and she cried too. she asked me why i am so unhappy, is it i dun like them to keep coming? she said, she is not an unreasonable woman and if anythihng i dun like just tell her.. at this point i dunno wad to say.. i just said i am very tired. cowardly me..
my BB also refuse to sleep at nite. changed her, fed her, burped her, but she only wants to sleep in your arms. put her down on bed, she cries. every nite like that since 1 week+.. i also trying hard to give her BM but my supply so imbalanced, left breast can get 60ml, right breast 20ml or even lesser. initially can get at least 50ml from each. FM she drinks about 80ml but BM she needs more cos she always hungry after 1 hr+ even though she is drinking same amt of expressed milk.
sometimes after feeding, dun want to sleep must suckle then will sleep. very painful for me but i bear with it. end up she drink so much she vomit a bit of milk and dun wanna sleep again. sigh..

sweetkiss, i know how you feel. my bb also the same. she doesn't know how to sleep by herself. if she doesn't fall asleep while breastfeeding, then we have to carry her for a very very long time before she'll fall asleep. it's very discouraging right? especially when we're so tired.
my bb also don't like it when i carry her, only wants my mom or my hb to carry her. when i carry her, she cries. sometimes i'm so scared to carry her for fear she will cry. easier to let my mom & hb carry her.

babycoco, according to my CL, bb can smell mummy's milk when we carry them and when we don't let them suckle (after they are full), they might cry...also cannot let bb comfort suck too much, else when we return to work, it will be very difficult for the caregiver (difficult for bb also)...probably that's why it is easier for others to carry the bb, rather than us mummies...
Sun_tan and ceres,
I'm using Ergo Carrier with infant insert. I like the carrier. I lugged my #1 in it while holidaying in HK when he was younger. Then I let my mum use it on my nephew too. Took back to use on my #2 now [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
I don't know how to use sling... furthermore don't like the weight to be on one shoulder

serene, i understand how you feel. whenever my MIL comes, she feels the need for baby to wake up. once i snapped at her to not wake baby up cos i really couldnt take it anymore.
i dont know why these old folks dont understand that babies will look to be fed once they are disturbed!
another thing that pisses me off is my husband's grandmother- who was advising me not to breastfeed too much if not baby becomes too attached to me and others cannot play with her. i feel like telling her that i prefer it that way you know.
i don't know if i'm being selfish but i hate it when my ILs come over. i can't wait for them to leave. i even decided not to express if they are around because if i dont want them to feed her my EBM cos once they saw my husband feeding my baby and they were so happy that they took the bottle and baby from my hubby. so everytime they come, i just let my girl latch all the way. they are super enthu cos it's their first grandchild but they handle my baby really quite roughly even can say that i should let my baby cry cos it's good for her when i give them the black face when they make my baby cry cos they disturb her sleep by SHAKING HER.
i wish my ILs would just disappear or that my SIL who has been married for quite some time but is still childless to get pregnant so they can go and fuss over that baby and leave my baby alone! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

i wish ILs to new mummies were subjected to a confinement period where they are not allowed to meet mummy and child to prevent mums from getting upset eventually leading to depression. just too bad they dont have that. it would make perfect sense cos we need to settle our emotions.
