Morning mummies!



May i check with mummies who uses Fucidin H on baby, how many days does it take to clear the rashes? My bb still have lots of dots on her face.. so poor thing.. this morning bb chloe keeps smiling at me.. melt my heart..

 
Irene, my PD was quite pleased with the weight gain of 0.3kg in 1 week.



My bb didn't sleep well last night, seems to have a stuffed nose. Couldn't sleep even after night feeds. Does anyone have this problem? My CL uses a cotton bud to take out the mucus that's at the periphery of her nostrils. Now she's sleeping better after feeds. Not sure if there's a better way to prevent this problem.

 
Sorry to disturb again.

I have 5packet (84pcs) unopened M size Pet Pet pampers unused for sale.



Price negotiable (ntuc sell abt 18 each), please sms me your reasonable price, self collect at admiralty link please 93621700, thank you

 
ceres: ur BM wun b not nutrition for bb lah...coz ur body will take all the good stuffs n turns into milk its ur own body will b no good so must 'bu' more.....if u worry then sup w FM lor....dun over stress urself w BM issues



Eliss: i give after bath....those chest freezer not cheap wor...i think abt $300+

 
Yesterday my boy turned 1 mth old. hubby n I took him to vivo to jalan with my mum, mil and my #1.

He cried for milk before we reached there. My mum took me to a place in giant she said got sofa to bf. Haha she took me to the furniture area!!! Upon reaching there ran into my hubby's friend and wife... Quickly said I have to bf as bb was wailing away. Too late to go nursing room. Sat down on sofa and nursed. After a while the security came over to ask me go elsewhere to rest. Told him I gotta feed a hungry bb and ge left while mumbling something under his breath.



Think my boy went on a celebration mode and had a drink-till-silly feast. He latched on every 1.5 h. I gave him full 30 mins feed wor. Ended up I couldn't shop much with a bb practically glued to my chest! On way home, he cried for milk again so gotta pulled over to a side road to take him out from car seat and I latched him on.. And on... And on.. Upon reaching home after cleaning him up he made noise and open his mouth wide again... Sigh. It went on for another good 1.5 hours. The minute I lay him down in his cot, he would cry. Nothing could pacify him except my breast. Finally gave up latching him and gave him a bottle of fm. Told my hubby not to let him drink too much. Boy seemed to know coz when hubby stopped at 90ml he wailed again. Sigh, finally gave him another 30ml. And? He slept from 1030pm till 430am!



Gosh! In the end I didn't express at 11ish coz breasts totally soft! He got up at 430am then 630am to nurse. At 920am, I gave him ebm 120ml and I expressed out 180ml!! Highest so far!



Haha, happy 1 mth old rayden!

 
Dream Feed - Do you mummies purposely wake the bb up at around 11pm plus / 12 midnight to feed bb eventhough he is soundly asleep already? My bb usually feed at around 8:30pm to 9:00pm, then go to bed. He can sometimes sleep through till 1 or 2 am (longer than his usual 3 hourly) for his feed and then the next one at around 5 am. Thinking of doing the Dream Feed earlier so I only need to get up once. Any advice?

 
I do dream feed for my baby previously but it doesn't seem to work. He still get up in the middle of the night like 4 plus to drink milk. Hai...

 
xbeanniex: How come? I thought of buying baby Bjorn carrier but my boy dun like lei.. so never buy. I think he quite ok with sarong like that, so thinking of buying a MIM sarong sling to use. Easier than using pram.

 
morning mummies,



just finished my 1st massage with Mdm Ida. Shiok! Bought the velcro binder/corset from her as well. Very useful.



Another complain abt my CL again...dunno why but lately her patterns slowly come out liao.

Without informing us, she invited one of her friend to our house! At 1st, my HB thought her friend is only coming over to pick up something from her then go...but in the end, she invited her in to our hse! .....



I was suprised to see one auntie in my BB's room with my CL, after my massage. My HB went to tell the CL we're not comfortable with hvg stranger in our hse and ask the auntie to leave soon.



My CL then "apologised" and said her friend will leave after taking a shower!! hello1! Who says her friend can take a shower at our house??! Who's house is it now, anyway? Buay tahan leh.

 
Joylyn-Thanks for the email...got it...[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Hi all Mommies,



Been follwing up with the thread...but too busy to even post as was working dring the long weekend and of cos...with handling the bb.



Since sunday..bb has been very cranky. Woke up in his sleep and started to cry. Thinking buying the Jin Fong Shan for him to eat.



I hope everyone is doing well...and just hang in there...think postive..i think all of you has been doing great and do keep it up..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 
Mrslong- Wah!! your CL really very hiong!! I think she assume your house belong to her..hahaha...it abit over the line...want to even take shower some more..tsk tsk

 
ann: i dun knw how to put bb in....



junie: i meeting mdm ida later to pick up the binder...as i cant massage yet... my stomach muscles not yet recover...

 
xbeaniex>> u had C-sect?? Initially i opted for 7 days massage but after seeing me, Mdm Ida said actually I dun need so many days cuz my tummy size reduced a lot liao and I'm close to my pre-pregnancy figure.



So now I opt for 3 days massage only...to relax & help clear some milk ducts.

 
Just to share..

Alwyn at 7 weeks and 2 days old...

Next week will bring him for jabs when he is 2 mths old.



[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/2495852/4350629.jpg]

 
brought bb for check up and vaccnine (6 in 1, rotavirus, pneumococcal, heb b). spent $500+. wanna check with mummies here if you're also getting the rotavirus & pneumococcal vaccine for your bbs?



mrslong, i'm quite appalled that your CL not only invited her friend, but let her shower at your house! no wonder you're furious!

 
babycoco,

yes i will be giving him the rota and pnemo.

because he has a jiejie who goes to school, i am worried she will bring germs home so he must be jabbed for Pneumo.



junie,

yr CL so QUA ZHANG...

So in the end, did u let her fren shower?

 
these few days so humid!!! i have been bathing three times daily... if not very uncomfortable to even pump BM! so salute to those who are still in strict confinement

 
junie,

Ur CL is ultimate!!



grace,

Alwyn so cute! love his eyes!



eliss,

xbeanniex,

Thanks [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Me too. Just took my #1 for his pneumococcal booster jab plus #1's 5-in-1 jab. Spent a total of $222.



Wonder is going polyclinic much cheaper for jabs. Took them to a GP

 
mrslong: yup... i had c-section as my cervix cant open to max after 9 hours of induced labour(open only 4cm)... so opt for c-section as dont want risk bb ...



oh... clearing up milk ducts? how to know milk ducts are block... accept pain at the breast. How about whitish at the nipple tip? I have them, cant seems to clean them off...

 
xbeanniex: starting i pump every 3hrly but now my ss maintaining at 100ml...no go up....still trying but ok lah so long enuff for her can liao....i've learn from previous....too stress ends up BF-ing will oni b a burden to us....that time when i finally stop BF it was such a big relieved lor....heehee but think again i saved alot....at leave 1k over the mths on FM



Ann: i'm using MIM sling...so far ok for mi....must really practice then u'll noe how to use....



mrslong: when u give birth? how come now then start massage? i juz finished mine yest....oso bought the binder from her....easier to use then the normal binder....i can put it on myself no nid ask ppl to help



u must really give ur CL warning.....no inform to bring stranger back already very wrong liao now even wana shower here...she thinks ur hse is wad? hotel meh?

I having difficulities bathing him... He always cry.. He like scare water.. Always wanted to hold on something... Everytime bath he will sneeze, I'm so scare he catch cold...

Wat can I help him to not to scare water??

Sorrie for the long post.. Hope have advice from mummies out there???

 
Jasline-- try to let your son poo after his morning feed so that he knows his routine. Make the "um um" sound to help him. I always let my boy burp (up) after every feed. If no burp, will carry him upright for at least 15 mins before putting him down.



I bath my boy after his morning feed. Usually it's about 9am to 10am since day one. Now he will keep himself awake during that time for bath. Try to talk to your bb during bath time. Let him know what you will be doing like clean his face, putting him in water, etc. Initially my boy always cry during bath time. After few times of practice, he is now used to bath and enjoys it.

 
jasline, usually constipation is related to choice of FM for bb. finding the right one. have a word with PD again [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



by the way, can i ask whehter are you babies still looking yellowish at 1 mth ? my bb approaching 1 mth old, she seems pretty yellowish (reddish)

 
phy,

i intend to let my boy take the pneumo, rota and 2nd hep b.



polyclinic is definately cheaper but must compare what they are giving.



since this time round can use CDA account, i decide to go for PD. last time my girl's time dont have. full set was wabt 1kplus

 
peanut & eliss: I email u already! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



Irene: i need ur email add.

 
Jaslin - my baby is almost on full FM but once a day EBM.



Maybe you can try changing the milk powder? Mine doesn't have that problem so far. My baby is 3 weeks, drinking 120ml. I follow the amount on the milk tin.. My baby is drinking enfalac...

 
Jaslin,



My bb is also on full FM , she is abt 6 wks old and drinks abt 120 ml of similac. She poos once a day or sometimes once every two days but i think its fine. Maybe you wanna change formula?

 
Jasline: during my 4 days having cold sore bb drink fm & very hard to shit. Got once think nv shit for a day he kek until face red & cry. My CL checked saw shit was going to clean when he pull up his leg, he still kek somemore out. Than CL notice she pull the leg, bb use less strength & shit easier to cone out than lie down. So u can try & also like bliss use the um um sound. Hope it helps. I also heard must give bb some water drink cuz fm heaty.



Tdy I went down put my ebm, I saw a black chicken not wrapped with the plastic thing. Naked in a plate in my fridge. I came up wait for CL wake, she slept since 12+ to near 3am than I tell her I moved ebm to another fridge cuz of that chicken. Still got the cheek say, only tdy so I think is ok.

Not ur bb or grandson wat. Drink got anything u also dunno wat to do. She gimme a bit of stupid face looking than went down. Sigh. These CL no standard one.

 
jasline: u can try letting bb grab on a cotton wool or a handkie during bathe..coz bb still nt use to being full naked and soak inside water..mine wail until ceiling almost drop for his first few bathe..now ar..he Zzz during bathe time..



just now wash his hair n bathe him while he Zzzz away in lalaland..

 


ceres == give ur CL a good one after ur confinement... no need to give what ang bao liao la.. wah.. i first time see such CL.. if for me, i ask her to pack and go liao...
