Am interested to know how many of you, your babies are still not holding on to their milk bottles when drinking milk?
My boy refuses to hold his own milk bottle. When we get him to hold the bottle, he will end up playing with it (i.e. pulling the milk bottle out of his mouth, then put in again, then pull out again...). Aiyo..dunno how to teach him le.

JTS: My boy just saw the dietician at KKH yesterday... so here's some info that may be helpful
- Important to give a wide variety of food from 1-2 yrs coz after that, they will start to be fussy about food
- Ideally 1 bf (bread or cereal etc) and 2 porridge, include 2 servings fruit + 2 servings veg + lotsa snacks coz they need a lot of energy! Plus milk of coz
- Start to transition them and let them eat the same food as we do, so long as moderate the salt and sugar content of our foods
- Good to give them yoghurt and cheese
- Can eat practically anything; but still no honey, chocolates, and fish that are high in mercury (I just learnt batang is a no no coz of mercury content) haha, I asked about durians and it's ok, my boy quite enjoys durians wor!
- Can start to eat margarine already, about half teaspoon a day (select those w healthier choice logo); this helps to up the calories intake
- For jam, buy St Dalfour brand coz it has no sugar added (can get from normal supermarkets)
- Can stir fry food with oil (choose canola or olive oil)
- Ok to give juice meant adults so long as there is no added sugar, no need to buy those specially for babies.
Think cooking for our littles ones will also benefit and cause us to change our own food habits!

BD: i agree lei...
My hb dont usually takes vege compared to me lar.. then i told him my gf's story (my gf dont take vege.)
Story:-
Coversation between 4yr old daughter & my GF & her HB
Daught: "Mummy, why you nvr eat vege?
Mummy: "hmmmm hmmmm ahmmmm"
Daddy: "Mummy do eat vege. *"Giap" 1 vege feed wife*
My GF 1st tasted vege once again since many donkey years of rejections.
Now my GF is happily eating salads and lots more vege then before.

Hi Hershey, most docs do advise not to go to crowded places for first 6 mths when bb's immunity is lower i.e. shopping malls, church etc. I diligently followed the advice and he only went between home and hospital for check ups. So when I first brought my son to a mall, he was super quiet, eyes open big big, dazed at all that is going around him - haha, so funny when I think of his stunned reaction lor! So maybe a park which has shady areas would be nice. For a start, just around the home for a stroll?
Shoes: Another sharing... before our babies can walk indepedently, they should wear shoes with soft soles. But once they walk on their own steadily and without any support, the shoes they wear need to have hard soles - try to bend the shoes with your hands and it should be stiff and diff to bend. This is new to me, and I had actually bought soft soled shoes for 18-24M for my boy lor... sighx

Bdmummy: Thanks for sharing the information. Very detailed. If I were to visit PD, I think I am the more like Hi Bye mummy. Very few questions to ask. Hehe!
For shoes, when buying at MotherCare for Kayden, the salesgirl did provide me with such advise so I bought the soft soled ones for Kayden. But hoh, I still hardly wear shoes for him when going out except that day when he was 1 yr old. Sometime I think now buy shoe for Kayden quite wasted cause he doesn't know how to walk yet. But he does like us to hold his hands to walk especially when hubby hold one hand and I hold the other.

1 more day to the bash looking forward to it sure hope my boy can last till the end of the party ...
Mrs long, my boy only started to hold his milk bottle a week ago so far so good till today. Initially, it's hard to teach him coz every time we teach him how to hold his bottle he will push his hands away dropping the bottle. A week ago, I just forcefully hold his hand tightly with the milk bottle n a few min later let go my hand guess wat to my surprise he didn't release it off.. So now I am glad I did the for forceful ways if not I still be waiting for the ay he's willing to hold his bottle..
