Good morning mommies and daddies[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Mommies remember to drink more water and eat more fruits[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Will be another lonely week again. Hubby is on biz trip from today to friday. Not easy for me to take care of Alexis, feel lonely at times. Heng she is a super happy, easy to take care and wonderful baby. He will be on more biz trip till end of the year. What to do, it is good thing for his co, he can only bond with Alexis during weekend, and most of the time he is busy with work or tired. I keep telling myself, I can do it and everything will be just fine. Everything is good with Alexis with me. She is my pillar of strength.
I just lowered her cot yesterday and she had hard time sleep cos too excited about her crawling and her lowered cot (can see us better and same level as our bed. Keep playing peak-a-boo, finally when I put her in our bed, she sleep immediately, then transferred her back to her cot.
I guess tomorrow will bring her to my mom's. Everytime I go there, my family members will be busy playing with her and don't let her sleep. May just stay a few hours then go home liao. Really tiring if she is cranky at night due to no enough naps in the day time. See how it goes, if her cough is not better, I would rather stay at home and let her rest.
Sam, poor mine. Hope your dog get well soon. Don't worry too much about weight. Belle is good weight, as long as she is happy, playing well, pooing well, peeing well then no worries okay.

Sharon, I bought the Lamaze inch worm from BP here, please do not buy from the BPs here cos it is fake one, not the same as the one selling in local market. It played "send true love away" (Out on the dance floor by Jennifer Lopez, has abit of tune) which is not the same as the local market one. If you want to get might as well get from authorised dealer instead.

stefie, everytime i bring my boy to my grandma's house, all the aunties and uncles will also go carry him around and he will get cranky when i get home. Tiring. I understand how lonely it can be at times when HB is away. My HB also away for biz trip often and i sometimes feel so tired with my boy alone. Jiayou! Alexis will keep you happy and occupied [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Sharon, could Darius be teething so he's poo-ing more often? I think so long as he's eating well and happy, it's fine since the poo is not watery. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Thank you Debbie. I guess may not be bad thing, cos I can have Alexis all to myself[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] Now she is getting very sticky with me. It is a blessing to put her in IFC cos at least I am not so guilty I can't play with her much during weekday. At night is more of feeding her last feed then she will sleep liao. Only like tomorrow Public Holiday, I will feel more tired.
I guess tomorrow still can go over awhile to my mom's. No choice leh, my mom and sis miss Alexis[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Good morning mommies!
Sharon: Continue to monitor the texture of Darius poo. If it gets too frequent and watery, then he may be teething. Do also check if there's blood in his poo.
Stefie: Jia You! I'm sure Alexis would keep you entertained during your lonely nights when hubs away.
Liz started standing on her own (still not steady) and pushing her toy around, trying to walk (like Cherry's Aly) over the weekend. So proud of her!
My maid told me that she got a call from her family in philippines one afternoon and started crying. Liz saw her cry and crawled up to her, using her own hands to wipe my maid's tears away, then tried to hug her to comfort her. I was very touched and surprised when I heard the story. Didn't expect an 8mth old baby to know how to comfort people...

crystal/mango: I seriously never thought liz would have done such a thing as she can be a monster at times (like when she wakes up at night, and my helper is sleeping on the mattress in her room and doesn't wake. Liz would pick the changing mat from her cot organiser and throw at my helper... faint!).

This is small bottle, I have seen this Malay mommy using huge bottle on her daughter in one of the nappy changing room. Btw it smell really nice, maybe you want to try?
I guess Ethan needs you to help him to sit down properly after standing. He is still not sure how to sit down after standing up bah. Cute lor[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

crystal: Haha, yea, liz can be a monster 
but having said that, she does know how to manja.
maybe Ethan doesn't want to sleep? I normally let liz crawl around her room in the dark 0.5hr before her bed time. She would crawl and play with her toys in the dark till her battery goes flat, then she would sleep through.

Stefie/Crystal,
Yup, Leah has super sensitive skin... she can't take ru yi you, it dries up her skin and becomes flaky. I'm using Eucalyptus oil for babies on Leah, but only use it when she has tummyache.
Crystal, Leah was like that one or two weeks back, and it lasted for I think few weeks. Very bad, she refused to sleep, hyperactive, woke up shortly after we pat her for 20mins to sleep, kept waking up thruout the night and demanded for our attentions. She whined until one of us pick her up. When we tried to pat her to sleep, she pushed us away... I think it's a phase, coz now Leah can sleep on her own, I usually just pat her a bit, put her down to her cot when she dozing in and out. She can also go back to sleep on her own if she wakes up in the middle of the night, unless she has nightmares.
Muddy, Liz is such a darling!

Amelia, yes leh. Not easy right. But no choice, for Diaper and milk powder $$$, our hubbies need to work extra hard to bring bacon home. Even my hubby is working for my brother also no special privilage, need to work much harder than the rest also. No worries lah, eventually daddy will be your boy fav playmate. We mommies will still be their basic needs providers.
I sometimes do envy those hubbies who are working in SIN, where they are able to bond with their babies at night. Will be more tired for us, especially no helper or family help. We do employ PT helper to do housework on Sunday.
At least your boy stick to you, better than to MILs, Helpers etc lor. Anyway son is always very sticky to mommy, daughter also sticky to daddy. In Alexis case yes leh. Daddy is always her fav.[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Don't slap him lah, he also don't know what is right or wrong leh, it is just a phase. Everything will be back to norm soon. Jia you Jia You[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Stefie, AH! Presidential election is on 27th!! Leah has doc appt that morning and we are heading to Jacky's concert that evening... going to be running ard for the whole day!?!! =S
Amelia, Leah was exactly like that one to two weeks back... I wrote about it earlier this morning..
Crystal, damn jialet lor.. my hubby and I took turns to attend to her. She will flip and turned in the yaolan, whine and whine in her cot until someone attend to her. One sat morning, we buay tahan, we just put her in her playpen in the livingroom after her first feed, then we both conked out in our bedroom. She whined and whined and cried until she was tired and fell asleep in the pen. We rather do that than tried to pat her to sleep, coz she just refused! If we continue to try, we prob flare up and shout at her.

Crystal, not sure if it works, apply oil or lotion on Ethan before going to sleep, perhaps he sleeps better? It never occurs to me when Leah behaved like that. It was only these few days I rem we applied oil on Leah coz of her tummy ache few months back, and she fell asleep quickly.

No guilty lah, later will sayang her and explain to her why you shout and let her understand what is going on. Sayang Sayang not easy when hubby is away lah. Things will get better, jia you[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif][IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

Huggies was cheap though. $10.70 as compared to the $16.70 Retail Price.

Stefie, thanks for the info on the Lamaze worm, saw it was selling at $15 at BP and very tempted to buy. Anyway jiayou, when hubby not around at least got Alexis to accompany you
Debbie, Muddypaws, thanks. I did not know that teething can result in him pooing more often? Today also, already 3X. Milk also don't want to take, where else beside cereal can I sneak in the milk? He has been wanting to bite everything he can grab in his hands for a long time already but so far dun see any teeth coming out, this pooing freq is recent though...
Amelia, does your hubby play with your son often during weekends? I find that though I spend more time with Darius and hubby only play with him on weekends but he is still very happy to see Daddy and always smile annd giggle when daddy play with him, maybe it s a father and son thing. My hubby always 'hao lian' to me that he can make Darius laugh, I reply him, good lor. ;P
Oshgosh, first and foremost, sit down with your new helper and tell her what she is expected to do, e.g wash clothes, mop floor, if got frequency even better. Also good to set the sleeping and waking up time if you can. At least she knows your expectation rt from the start. For me, I told her the jobs scope right from day 1. As for sleeping and waking up time, it depends on what time my MIL stop watching TV at night but usually by ard 11 since she sleeps in the living room. As for waking up time, I did not set previously but recently told her to wake up and wash up before Darius wakes up which is ard 8.

oshgosh,ya was a pleasant surprise to bump into u! Though ur back face me but i recognise Leah, oh yes we were gng to claim the parking coupon so took escalator up n saw you [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] hiaz this is my 1st hotdate wif hub after trevor born lo,hey u had ur 2mths back in june overseas somemore [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] but i be alone on wed onwards [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] we watched movie so was rushing off if nt can chat wif u longer n hubby bought my bday gift [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
oh dear you shouted Jade?for us if caroline get notti outside,we will take her fav food or toy to bribe her to make her behave herself but will disciline her when we got hm and usually the tactic works,u may try on that[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] regarding stickyness,are ur frens kids coming too? Hope Jade will play wif them n maybe buying new toy will help to get away the stickyness? You knw my hb is gng away for 20 days so we bought alot of new toys for her n her fav DVD Hi 5 10 dvds series for her to keep her occupy, hiaz no maid n deal 2 kids alone so gt to use new toys and dvds as babysitter so hopefully i can survive! But nite sleeping pattern is a diff story, think trevor upper 3rd and 4th teeth is cutting thru so i may need to apply teething gel hourly if he wakes up in the mid of nite!
