dewdew: If I'm you, I would just get bird's nest for your friend cos I'm very worried about side effects of certain chinese herbs on the Bf-ing or baby. I didn't take any Chinese herbs after my delivery (not even chicken essence) as I was worried about the effects on my BM. Or maybe you can get her DOM or Yomeishu. I had these after my last feed to Liz as it takes about 2hours for the alcohol to metabolise.
raspy/cindy: liz is like your girls too. So my maid has to lie by her side during the day. I find that when I lie down with her, she has a tendency to inch towards me, and slowly (but very very surely) push me off the mattress!
jialing: I find that now with a helper, the tension between my hubs and I have diminished a lot. Prior to the helper, we would have little arguments about when to do housework, who to do what etc, or he wants to have couple time with me but I'm gan-jiong with the housework. Now the maid does everything, so we can spend more time with each other and with liz. My dad comes over everyday to play with liz and to watch over my maid. This has caused some tension between my parents and I too as my dad would pick on very minor things about the maid.
Roz: Good that kiddo is able to sit unsupported. Liz is still unsteady... she has a tendency to be distracted when sitting upright. She would want to touch her toes, or turn sideways to find her toy etc, and then she would end up tilting sideways towards the floor.
Jiahui: Don't worry so much. Different babies have their own different milestones...
melissa: I don't dare to put liz in high-chair as I realised that she has a tendency to want to climb her way out of the high-chair when she's done with her food. We were at a restaurant over the weekend, and she was in the high-chair. Maid was feeding her, and when she's full, she starting making her own way out of the high-chair! Gave us a shock! Btw, she tries to climb out of her float when she's bored of swimming too! Faint......
dew: Gwen doesn't like bellamy's? Ok, maybe you can try this... steam sweet potato, puree and put bellamy's with a bit of milk. Or put a bit of apple puree with bellamy's.
dew: The Cybex is good, but more suitable when kiddo is older. Eg, Liz is 65cm now, and the support cushion covers 1/4 of her face, so she's super frustrated, and tries to escape!
