Hi mummies,
Can anyone explain to me what's an exersaucer?
Personally i am not for walkers cos bb tends to zoom very fast all around and then things on the shelves will fall on them. That's what happened to me when i was a babe.
Baby movement
Gideon's movement is quite random. Throughout the day there will be some movement, though some days more than others. I can feel more movement if i wear pants, maybe he feels tight inside and will struggle more.

my baby's movement is oso mild.
i think the movements now shld be mild kind, cos my gynae told me it shld feel like water bubbling movements.
badfifi,

jynsann> what about exersaucer? cos i actually saw a exersaucer cum walker.. so I was thinking once it can sit up, it can be in the exersaucer right?
badfifi > oh i see. i only read that the walker may cause the baby to walk funny but i don't feel that it's true.
boohoo. i'm 19 weeks and i don't feel the movement![IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] maybe i have too much fats cushioning it...

pinkyluv> hahaha you're so funny! after visiting the tampines ikea i don't go back to the alexandra branch. the traffic there can be quite jialat and i feel it's a bit claustrophobic. i feel browsing is a more pleasant experience there. food-wise, i don't know which is better though.
shinchan> so sweet! i often forget my stretchmark oil cos it says it should be washed off after some time, and by the time my husband comes home, it is dinnertime, and cannot massage. finally, later at night ok, but no time to go and wash off... so i never find the right time...haiz...

Diamantz,
My exersaucer is actually a station which does not attached with walker, place the baby in it and baby will learn how to turn around as the seat can be rotate, the toys allow them to use their fingers to trigger or twist, stimulate their eyes movement and of cos when they turn, they also exercise their leg movement, the music also expose them to sounds. Overall quite beneficial bah, i mean what i observed haha.
For my baby, i think he prefer his jumperoo than exersaucer ^^ at that time
When baby is able to cruise, i got him a turnabout 360 degree set, this allow him to be able to move a round whereby there is also an activity table in the centre. He also enjoy it!

Speaking of baby's movement, I don't feel it everyday. It's just some days when I lie down on my bed in a certain way and she moves a fair bit. That's when I can feel the movement when I place my hand on my tummy. But it's only -some days-. Scary lor... And I'm 19weeks. Hmm....
Some colleagues will really be the death of you..but it sure helps when u have a sense of humour and a lot of confidence ....

I replied, " yeah"
The reply, " that's great, cos the lady said she is very fat"

shinchan> you not the only one. I am 20 weeks and i still can't feel baby movement a lot .. and to what i recall only once on 2 april where it feels like a rubbling on my right tummy [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] till now, didn't feel anything.
When i did my detailed scan last week, i see the baby moving but i didn't feel anything guess our kids are more "gentle" in our tummy hahahaha

Hi all,
I do feel a hard lump on my right while resting at night sometimes, so when i pressed, after a while, that spot will soften up...wonder if that is the baby position...gynae once told me that bb is positioned on the right...

Hi Mummies,
Jumperoo:
The jumperoo is a lot of fun for our little ones, my elder daughter had one too, and she spent a good 2 months (7-8mths) on the station. Not recommended for children 6 months and below because their necks are still fragile. Would suggest mummies to buy 2nd hand, then sell it after baby grow out of it, its big and takes up a lot of space
Baby Moving:
It's true that its hard to recognise the flurry of baby's movement when you are having your first baby.. Baby moves all the time! Don't worry mummies.. i didn't know what to expect when I had my first baby.. so I thought baby didn't move until well into my 6th month! Plus during our first pregnancy, our uterine wall muscles are less flexible, so baby movements are harder to notice. This time round, i started to feel movement just 3.5 months into the pregnancy.. I guess because I now know what to feel for and my uterine walls are now more flexi!
At around 7 months, you'd hope baby not move that much.. had a hard time sleeping through because baby was hiccupping every hour.. and jabbing her elbow here and there

Re: jumperoo
Unlike jynnsan and letty's baby, my gal didnt quite took to it. She tried it at Robinsons and she seems so happy in it. So we rented it from one of those toys rental website and after one try, she didnt wanna sit in it at all. She will cry when we try to put her in it. So it was sitting one corner for a month collecting dust. Heng it was rented and not bought. But she loves her exersaucer and spent quite a few months in it. Both items dont need to get it yet, can wait till baby is much older. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Wah you all post sooooo fast.
Re: Walker / Exersaucer
I am one of those that are against walkers and my gal started walking quite early - about 8 mths with support. I rather let her use me as support to walk. But I can say this coz I have a reliable helper lah. As for exersaucers, there were a few cases against the Evenflo ones - fractures due to the jumping and landing on a bounceable surface - so do take note. I think the Bright Starts Activity Station is not too bad by feedback (this is the one in the pic posted above). Instead of jumping, the kid learns to walk round a stationary play table. Can use for a longer time too as older kids can just play with the play table. Only thing is as with all activity stations, do take note of your kid's walking after that to ensure they dun walk on tiptoes.

Walker,
I put baby on walker, agreed that there are banging, but fortunately, he is walking ok now. In fact, i was also quite hesitate to get him a walker, but dh keep saying that we also used walker when we are young, why not...he win lor
I still keep the walker for #2, really worry at times over baby development at every stage.
