charliebrown: I think she is okay with sweet potatoes but I guess pumpkin is still her all time favourite! Don't know why most of the babies like pumpkin...hee
Wah, good to hear some of your babies can crawl already...it's another improvement but more tiring also, have to really keep an eye on them by then!
My baby also trying to push herself up and only know how to move backward. Sometimes cannot find her cos she is hiding under the couch! She likes shake her head a lot too, especially when she is about to sleep, any of your baby does the same thing?

Bb e woke up this morning at 5am for milk, refused to sleep after that and play until 7am, slept awhile for 30mins and woke up again.. My hb was coaxing her to sleep for 2 hours and it's driving him nuts!
These 2 days Bb e has been waking up at 5am and don't want to sleep, wonder where all bb energy comes from??? Notice that she's also sleeping alot lesser in the day too!

i noticed bb also sleeps v little these days. many moms seems to have their little ones on solids and the little ones are chompping down the food but mine is spitting it out! already been more of a food fight [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] just relying on milk now .. hopefully main source of nutrients are still fr milk? sigh ..

jasline & ica: thanks for your recommendation for the gynae [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] I'll let my friend know.
babycoco, geri, ica, yvonne: Lynn mentioned that she'll be organising a class (probably the little gym at marina sq) in Mar. If interested can PM her.
Daisy: OMG! Do take care and hope you'll recover soon.
Taiwan trip: Just back from holiday in Taiwan. Didn't bring bb along this time as wasn't confident of bringing bb overseas and also wanted to have some couple time. To my surprise, I find that Taipei is actually quite baby-friendly. At the airport, nursing room is everywhere! And it's pretty well equpped with hot & cold water dispenser, changing table, child toilet bowl etc. In some MRT station, they have nice breastfeeding room, not to mention very clean toilets everywhere. In the malls, if you are with a stroller, the lift attendent will help you when getting in-and-out of the lift. Next time if I go taiwan again, I'll be more comfortable in bringing my bb along. The only sad thing is that I can't find any clothes to buy for my baby as now is the winter season. But there's ALOT of doggie clothes everywhere. Too bad I don't have a doggie.

Hello Mummies.
Wishing all of you a Happy New Year and also Happy Chinese New Year in Advance.
I have been crazy busy and could not find time/energy to follow up on this forum. Only managed to briefly catch up on FB. Gosh, I have missed out so much too. I guess better late than never [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
After, I chased away my maid (who was full of bullshit) I pretty much handled everything on my own at home. Now things are much better and baby is now 7 months.
I have managed to go back to work (Part-time Saturdays and Sundays 9am to 5pm). While my grandma and husband take care of my baby. So far so good.
I was reading about the gym and find it so interesting. Looks like all of you are attending weekend sessions.
I can only manage to attend weekday sessions. I came across this link: http://www.jwtkids-singapore.com/about.htm
Anyone registerd with jwtkids? Also anyone attending during weekdays with any other gym?

hael: would you just be going to Taipei or other parts of Taiwan as well? is your little one a girl or boy? If girl, then I would recommend going to this hello kitty restaurant which is really pretty. But do remember to make reservation as it's very popular. I would also recommend going to this mall call Miramar 美丽华百乐园. There's a very nice & big ferris wheel and it's quite convenient to get there as there is a new MRT station right next to it. In my previous trip, I also went to this 台湾故事馆 at KMALL which is pretty interesting. It has exhibits and shops depicting the earlier days of Taiwan, very retro. And it's also right next to the MRT. If you want to bring your bb to night market, choose a weekday as it's super crowded on weekend. But I would recommend that you use a baby carrier when going to night market as it's would be more convenient. If you intend to go to outskirt of Taipei, such as Jiufen Pingxi & Yehliu, I would recommend that you hire a cab. I hire 1 for the whole day at NT3000. If you intend to go to other parts of Taiwan, you can consider some farm such as Ching Jing farm or Yilan's ShangriLa Leisure Farm. I have not been there myself but I heard it's quite popular for family. But note that it would involve quite a bit of travelling on train and cab/bus. You can also consider going to some fruit farms but it would be better if your bb can walk already. If you need more info can PM me [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Hi Hael,
Yes I am only going to register my girl after the CNY period. What is the difference between JWT and Little Gym.?
I called up Little Gym and they have a catered programme for infants 4 months to 10 months. It is called "BUGS". Cute name [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] An intro class is @ $42.80. Total $438 for 10 lessons (1 lesson per week). Upon payment of $438, the intro class fee of $42.80 will be deducted from the total amount. There is an annual fee of $55.00
I can only attend the Wednesday classes from 910am to 955am (45 mins per class) at Forum.
After CNY we plan again. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Morning mummies.
My bb absolutely hates avocado, like most bbs! He has tried for 2 days and he cried. What a waste, as avocado is full of nutrients.
Just saw yesterday's news, apparently it is now advisable to expose bb to eggs between 4 to 6mths, as early as possible. But I won't let bb eat eggs as yet till he is older.
eveyeoh: which sweet potato did you buy? Is it the purple skin one or the yellow skin one?

Good morning mummies.
Feeling so tired. As CNY gets nearer, I feel like so much things not done yet. Especially the laundry portion. The sky is not helping either cause it keeps raining.
Last night, Kayden gave me a scare. I placed him in the yao lan to sleep at night so that he can sleep deeper and I can get to do some housework. I did go into the room to check on him frequently while he sleeps. On the fourth time when I went in, I saw that his bean pillow is covering his whole face. I know bean pillow would not suffocate him but then he was lying so still that my heart nearly stopped. I pull up the pillow abit to see his face, no reaction from him. I touched his hands, cold and no reaction still. I touched his legs, cold and still no reaction. Finally I put my hand on his chest and I heaved a sigh of relief when his chest moved up and down against my palm. I told hubby about it and he say "Silly mummy, anyhow scare yourself." Sometime such things really scare me alot.
The Little Gym: I think I will wait for their new term before signing up for the class. Don't feel like joining class half way.
Taiwan: Thinking of bringing Kayden to Taiwan in March or April. Any advise which mth is better? Don't wan too cold. And should I do F&E or follow tour group?
Fish Porridge: Kayden really love fish porridge. Yesterday, my mum cooked fish porridge for him. He finished 1 bowl. Normally he only take half bowl of porrridge. I scared he overeat so dun dare to feed him more.

Ya.. not good to feed egg to baby so early. Egg yolk can be fed from 8mths onward but egg white preferably wait till more than 1yr old.
I bought the purple sweet potato for Kayden to eat but then I have not make the puree yet. Maybe do it tonight.

Jonas: Ya lo.. very scary one. I think his hands and legs are cold because of the rain. So I quickly cover him with the TMC swaddle blanket. But the coldness really give me a scare lo.
Haha!! At least your boy don't wanna sleep is because he wanna learn how to crawl but my boy dun wanna sleep is because he wan me to carry him and play with him.
Now I have to carry him till he sleep and then place him in the yao lan so that he can sleep deeper and I can do housework. But I never let him sleep in the yao lan for the whole night, I will still carry him to his cot to sleep.
diapers vs pull up pant: Can I check do diaper and pull up pant have different absorbent capacity? This morning, 5.30am, Kayden's pants wet with pee again. I just change it at 8pm at night before he sleeps. Goon pull up pants cannot contain his pee.

Jellypurin: Ya.. I was so happy when I bought Goon. Thought my problem was solved and yet it is not. Hai.. maybe I have to buy other diapers to try again. Or maybe I just have to change my boy's diapers in the middle of the night cause really hard to find one that can contain his pee.
Chelz... (chelz_mum) - I find your bb side view look like my boy lei!!!keke. ur son is like pouting?? My son love to pout too!

Cheeze, yeah the class really fun.
You will suprise during the class that yr bb is stronger than what u think

. The instructor right hand holding the centre part of the stick... the left hand did not support bb head/ body... It surprise me that bb managed to lift up his body
[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/2495852/5074803.jpg]
For this shot, bb hanging on a small stick, the instructor hold bb's hand... if bb can lift up his body in this position, then i will faint!!!

Hi Cheese,
yeah the instructor would pick 1 to 2 bb for each stunt... all got chance to become "sample" except 1 bb (i think he did not have enough sleep before the class, therefore abit cranky & the mother carry him to sleep during the class)...
But I only dare to repeat the stunt 2,3 &4 (follow the sequence above)... dont dare to repeat the stunt 1, scared bb got no more strenght...
for stunt 2, even though bb use his own strenght but at least we got put our palm far away behind (just incase...)

Wonder if this works as he now can sit very wella and neck is very strong.U making me wanna join the class to find out more! hehe , thk u!!

Ann; I just made for bb the sweet potato puree. He loves it! But after steaming and blending, it is too sticky I feel, so I added abit more water.

Chelz: the little gym looks so fun! ur bb looks like he can do the stunt very well. clap clap clap.
cheese: congrats! the chinese new year is really like a new start for u [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Ann: oh my so scary! sometime even when my bb is sleeping on his side, i will still use my hand to feel that he is still breathing if he looks very still. then my hubby will laugh at me [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] For taiwan, April would be better as Mar can still be quite cold like 10+ degrees. as for tour group or F&E i think it depends on individual. My memory of tour group is that it's very rush and always have to wake up early and spend alot of time on the tour bus. it might be quite tough for a baby to follow the tour group itinerary in my humble opinion.
