Penguin, good to hear that your son is fine. Must have been tough on you. *pat pat*



As for your ex-colleagues, maybe cos I'm old, I think that it's better to have friends than enemies. cos you will never know whether these people will cross your path in future again. You dont have to maintain a relationship with people who you dont like. But it's rude to dismiss their concern (be it genuine or not). If I were you, I will just reply them, "Fine, thank you" but curse them behind the sms. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[ahnah69]

anyone got problem with your bb's tummy time.



I just saw a mummy facebook, her boy's tummy time so good.. can look up so well. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

 

[weiling99]

ducklingeshop, take care of youself. My colleague kena flu from his son who is only 2months old. See how strong the virus is.

 

[jascmy]

Sunflower, ur Bb really drinking a lot.



Jasmine, I bring 110ml of EBM out for him. He will drink only half of it and then finish the bal half 30mins later. So I can't based on that.



Wl, your Bb busybodying around. Mine is sleeping most of the time, hahaa... thats y spend 2 time to finish his milk when outside.



Thanks all for your info. I must really start bottle feed starting next monday if not I don know how much my boy drinking. Haiz... I still feels fresh milk better than frozen milk leh, next mth onwards he no chance to drink fresh milk liao.



mamyvelle, ya, I went to the nursing rm beside toilet. Ok, next time will go to the nursing rm at the playground.

 

[mdmyip]

Ahnah me loh. My boy cry everytime I put him on tummy... But bo pian. Recently I try it with him n a pillow beneath the chest he seem more willing.

 

[penguin_88]

Wah that's a good one[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] i've been cursing them when i was preg.. Haha... Yah they contact me in all ways... I can't possibly shun all of them... U back to work already?



I'm eager to start work and save up for my owb flat[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

 

[jascmy]

ahNah, my boy also nvr lift up his head when he on tummy time. He started trying to flip yesterday, I helped him flip over on his tummy today and still nvr lift up head.

 

[ahnah69]

mdmyip / jascmy ... so I not the only 1. Or we have to wait for them to grow up in a few more months ?

 

[penguin_88]

Ahnah: who's baby? my boy can't really do tummy time now cause his wound for surgery haven really heal..

 

[penguin_88]

Must pat their backside cause i flip my bb on tummy when he's cranky..

 

[justnew]

Ahnah



Mine also not stable. Head kept facing down , like wana suffocate . Still can't lift head up . But kept wana flip, flip halfway kept screaming cos can't flip fully

 

[weiling99]

Penguin, since they are so good at gossiping, then you just have to reply 1 and the word will spread.

Yes back to work liao, I realised that when I'm at work I have more free time to log on. Haha.



It's always good to have our own flat. More freedom too. Better still if can buy direct from HDB, cos sure earn $$$, maybe lesser nowasday but still better than nothing. So good luck to your new purchase!



AhNah, if there's a laziest contest, my baby sure win 1. Everytime I put her on tummy, she screams. Until her daddy pity her and rescues her. My helper too. So I'm the evil mother in the house who loves to torture baby by placing them on tummy!

 

[ahnah69]

penguin : it is in a facebook.

Maybe i can to pank their backside..



Sunflower [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/proud.gif]r maybe still early for our 3rd month baby.



But the one is the facebook is only 15 weeks.

 

[mdmyip]

Ahnah- continue with tummy time.. My boy can lift up head for a short while after a week of forced tummy time. He still hates it now but I still give him. I'm doing daily exercises to help him sit up now... That's why I bought a bumbo chair too. I may seem like kiasu parent but actually in the afternoon after I take care of his basic needs I'm quite free so went to look up all those exercises to do with him lol else very bored at home

 

[penguin_88]

Weiling: yup, that's why i don't like.. Worse thing is, i even introduce my good fren in -_-" ... like slapping my own face... Hope can afford a flat soon.. Hee i hope my new employer allows internet access so i can log in.. Starting work in dec, feeling guilty to stay at home now cause there's no income flowing in..



Ahnah: i flipped my bb ard 1and half months when he has colic.. He will struggle struggle lift his head up and cry...But he likes tummy time.. He always fall zzz on me..

 

[mdmyip]

Wl, I also evil mummy hehe

 

[ducklingeshop]

wl, thanks.

Can i get my boy to join the lazies competition too?? haha, he also lazy type, no sign of want to flip yet, tummy time head oso cant lift up steady... the only thing he likes now is look concentrate on his own hands &.... LICK! haha...

 

[ineedmilk]

ahNah,



My boy can lift up his head very stable at 2mths+ old but I rem his jie jie took longer time... I guess each baby progress at different rate, no need to worry too much, just keep doing tummy time with him. 1 minute tummy time every few hours also good.

 

[ineedmilk]

Penguin, u so fast found job liao?? wow.....

 

[jerainejerrell]

my boy also very lazy. put him on his tummy, he holds his head up for >5mins then don't lift up and cries.



my boy also like to lick his fists, will you all just let them lick or stop them from doing so?

 

[ahnah69]

since got lazies contest for bb... got evilest contest for mummy or daddy or not ?

 

[ahnah69]

Re: Licking.



1 hand or 1 finger or 2 fist at same time ?

 

[jerainejerrell]

ahnah,

mine lick 1 fist at 1 time.

 

[ineedmilk]

jasmine,



I didn't stop him from sucking his fist... it seemed so yummy to him...haha.. don't wanna deprive him of his "drumstick"... but I did use cloth to wipe his hands regularly so as to keep his hands clean.

 

[ineedmilk]

Left my boy at my in laws place for this afternoon while I go for nice lunch with my fren... Just called them and can hear my boy screaming at the top of his voice... my ILs told me that he dunno why crying very loudly and they have been carrying him non-stop.... aiyo..... dunno why my boy likes to throw tantrums when I leave him at my ILs place. This is his 2nd time there. If he continues like dat, I dunno how to go back to working life... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

 

[penguin_88]

Ah nah: 2 fists at the same time..



Ann: yup, i found one long ago hee.. Also ifc in charge keep asking me if i'm interested..

 

[ineedmilk]

penguin: No wonder u resign so fast....

Aft tat when I started work n put him at MIL place, I din hav chance to tummy time him n now during weekends when I try, he jus do the ecstasy shaking head on the bed, can't lift at all.. So scared he suffocate so I gave up.. But I try carry him upright n he can hold his head.. My hands jus standby at the neck area.. He's trying to flip also.. But nt yet succeed.. Hehhehe



My boy also bad skin.. He drools a lot n rub his fists on his cheeks.. Now his cheeks gt bad red patches of rashes.. I tried giving the physiogel AI cream which doc gave.. But it jus became redder.. So now I jus ask maid to wipe with warm water aft feeds n after he rubs . Also my MIL apply the hazeline cream and tada! It is better! Heng!

 

[justnew]

Last nite my hb ask me to see his trick. He put bb on tummy time and to my surprise my boy's head is stable. Still can look left and right. And although he is on his tummy, he kept kicking his legs. My hb told me that we have to put bb on firm mattress. I have Been putting him on my own bed , tot got more space for him to flip. But actually I'm wrong cos my bed is not firm but soft.



Ahnah, maybe u can try out to put him on firm mattress, so ur boy can support himself well on his tummy and then liftip his head

 

[sheric]

anyone buy sophie the giraffe for their bb?

i bought it from spree & realise that the rubber smell is pretty strong.

Is it fine to put it into bb mouth?

 

[ahnah69]

sunflower, ok .. we try on firm mattress later.
