Jkids: I brought my bb overseas when she was 2 mths old and 7 months old. During the last trip (7mo), i think she knows that she is in a new place but she didnt cry and able to sleep without much difficulty. In fact, i think she likes the hotel bed coz the bedsheet is very soft hahah so shiok juz to turn here n there. If u wanna be safe,bring her own pillow/bolster/blanket or soft toys.
Brink: i'll check out ur ol shop see if anything suitable for my bb

Brink, I think you should give the part-time helper more work or cut down to 3hrs instead of 4hrs. Otherwise very lugi leh. Can try aunties too but some not very clean. Must monitor. Regarding cereal, my son generally not wild abt cereal. Now feeding him porridge. Challenging too bec he doesn't eat much. He ate more previously when I offered him purée. Not sure why..
brink, i would sack her.
i have been using pt maid(use quite a no b4) on and off and my maid at moz leave 10 min early one. she is paid 4 hours mah so i consider this as cheating. she should find work to do. there are many housework that can be done. nonone ask her to do fast fast right?

Hi mummies,

has anyone used "unpaid infant care leave" before?
why "unpaid"? is it because any leave taken is deductable fr your pay?
below is what i found at mom website...
***********
An employee is entitled to six days of unpaid infant care leave per year if he/she is covered under the Child Development Co-Savings Act. The Child Development Co-Savings Act covers all parents of Singapore citizens, including managerial, executive or confidential staff if all four of the following conditions are met:
The child (including legally adopted children or stepchildren) is below two years of age;
The child is a Singapore citizen;
The child's parents are lawfully married (including divorced or widowed parents); and
The employee has worked for the employer for at least three calendar months.
Regardless of the number of children, the total unpaid infant care leave entitlement for each parent is capped at six days per year. For divorced or widowed parents, the leave entitlement will not be doubled.
Parents of Singapore citizens below the age of two can take both types of leave (six days of paid childcare leave and six days of unpaid infant care leave) until the child turns two.

same here, also sometime never come in here already. Very busy trying to figure out how to toilet train baby..best way possible. Anyone successfully tried?
Yes, its unpaid as it will be deductable from ur salary, we are entitled to 6 days of paid child care, then another 6 days of unpaid...if you wish to apply for the latter, need your boss to approve and they will deduct $ from your leave
for those mommies who had bring bb out for staycation or vacation before
anyone draw out a checklist for the stay? it will be good if someone is able to share what to bring along
Thanks in advance!

hi mummies...
i haven't been coming in for a long time...busy with work..
jkids: unpaid infant care leave means will deduct from your salary if u take. So i always tell my colleagues not to use since they still have annual leave.
jingles: so fast toilet-train bb? I only intend to try when bb turns 2 or let the cc train..i tried earlier with my #1, not successful so never force..after she went cc, one day she told me she wants to wear panty then i started to train. For my #2, if he wants to poo now, he will make the "eng" sound...but nowadays will bluff us or when he hears us mentioning "大便", he will make the "eng" sound..lol

hi all,
yeah thread has been a little quiet lately, so guessing that mummies are busy now that our kids are more mobile!
jingles, my son has been on vacation to Melaka twice so far. stuff I usually bring are always:
- spare clothes
- alot of diapers
- some snacks and food (I buy those fruit pouches) for babies
- toys
- a swaddle cloth (can be as blanket, nursing cover, padding, bedsheet for cot..etc)
- a small non-slip mat for bathing
- a bottle of cool boiled water (cos I kiasu..not sure about water condition for baby even tho boiled haha)
- and a not-so-fancy change mat. I couldn't find a changing table when I was out in Melaka, and I had to change my son's diaper on the stairs on the floor. -_-""
- small travelling bottle of baby dishwashing detergent for washing containers/bottles
- small travelling bottle of baby laundry detergent
btw, you are starting toilet training so early! Like most mummies, I intend to 顺起自然` and wait for things to happen.
lush, I haven't tried dou miao but should be fine ah. I have recently, tried leek, watercress and celery. I think my baby quite ke lian..I look at all the veg combination that I have been pureeing, and pity him eating it haha. Look so green.

so early starting to toilettrain ah? i think i will wait till 2 to 3 yrs old or till he shows some signs.
letting cc train is a good idea...in fact they will be more willing to be trained seeing their peers are trained oredi.
me oso no party...bb will have party wif his parents and siblings only.
re: infant care
ok i see.. no wonder i dun even bother to remember...lol

Jac, i brought my #1 to Yu Guo before but she refused to take the med nor the belly bag so i gave up. Far to go Kembangan from my plc.
re: shoes
i bought Little Blue Lamb shoes for him though he can't walk yet...more for his first bday. I also bought LBL for #1, find it good for money so bought back the same brand.
Pediped good but ex lor. But OG sales sometimes has good price...

jac, agree with moscato about Little Blue Lamb. I bought my son a pair from a shop in Fusionopolis, quite decent price when on discount. Find that the leather is very soft for my son to walk. But the leather for some of the toddler shoes seem to peel, saw that on my friend's toddler's shoes. The infant shoes are good tho.

Jingles, where did u get ur pediped ah?
Moscato & enitsuj, yeah I juz found out that little blue lamb is the same china manufacturer as pediped. Like OEM product at half the price. Hahah. Am thinking of getting little blue lamb too. Where can I get it ah, besides at fusionpolis (abit far)? I saw it online at dearbaby.com.sg, but prefer to let him try out b4 buying..
Jkids, my boy takes his breakfast (usually cereal/ baby bites) & lunch (porridge) at IFC. Dinner at home. Y ask leh?

enitsuj, agreed! my toddler sizes shoes are peeling..the infant shoes are good.
Jac, dearbaby.com.sg is actually the one at Fusionpolis. I bought from dearbaby online for #1. The subsequent ones i bought from China directly cos i happened to be there on biz trip.
Baby Meadows @ Marine Parade used to carry LBL shoes. not sure if they still do so now. I check their online store, no items under LBL. Maybe you can call to check?
or you want to pop by my plc to take a look?

Mummies, how are you? It's been a challenging week for me. Why? Battles at mealtime! My son, who's turning 9 mth, suddenly decided last week that he's nt going to open his mouth to accept porridge or purée. These 2 days he even used his tongue to push away the spoon, causing a mess. Most times, he just sips his porridge or purée as if to taste and period. Then I wld be force feeding him and there wld be a power struggle. He's of course the winner bec what else cld mummy do to a baby. Sometimes I got so frus that I wld be all ready to throw him into a dustbin, if there's one nearby. Anyone of you know what's happening to my dragon warrior?

Hello Mummies,
My BP is up and running again..If you like Hello Kitty..I have a whole range for you to choose from. Feel free to browse through
http://singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/messages/581296/7886867.html?1355377236
How's everyone doing? Talking about shoes, have not bought any for my didi yet as most likely will take pass down shoes from his brother or relative.
Something unfortunate happen today, didi was sleeping and I close my door and when I heard him, I rush inside the room and he was behind the door and the door went over a few of his fingers..he cried so hard and I cry w him...so xin tong
Luckily he was ok after a while. Feel so bad
He has been taking cough and flu med for almost 3 weeks and never recover..my elder too coughing still after two rounds of antibotics.
Talking about Yu Guo, we went there a few times and like what moscato and Jac said..well the queue is super long and very far..take a long while to see effect so we went for the faster one which is western med..dont wan children to suffer too long...
Went garden by the bay today..nice place to bring the kids and as it is nice, cosy and cold...Quite like it as weather in singapore can be so hot, making one feel frustrated easily.
Dancing queen, is it teething issue cause sometimes the teeth coming out make them sick and lose appetite???

brink, don't feel bad..we learn along the way but thru a hard way. I "caused" some of my #1's injuries too.
avoid chicken & eggs for your elder since coughing..and don't let him sleep in aircon (anyway weather so cold recently).
for infant shoes, maybe should buy a new pair cos the shoes are soft and already "mould" to elder's feet ba.

Brink, oh no, u jiayou & take care k! can understand the pain mann.. previously me & hb also whole nite washing mattress, bouncer & car seat coz my boy puking after every feed when he had bronchitis, then somemore next day have to work, I survived mainly on coffee for those days.. u brought ur kids to see doc liao? Hope they get well soon!! My boy's fever is gone liao, but still having very thick & yellowish mucus in the nose, praying the fever doesn't come back & he'll recover on his own.. Sigh, guess this is part & parcel of parenthood, hope they'll be stronger after they cross 1yo..
Jkids, no dinner provided ah, they usually give milk ard 430-5pm, so can last him till dinner time at ard 730pm. I know some ccc operate till 9pm, those will provide dinner. I'm also wondering whether it's worth it to bring bb to gardens by the bay. not cheap leh & dunno if bb will enjoy it? nicer than botanic gardens?

Good morning all! It's one more week to Christmas! Yippee!!
Regarding Gardens, I had actually planned to bring my son there. However, my gf told me that her PD mentioned he has seen quite a few babies who became sick after breathing in too much pollens In the Dome..allergy, I think. So I've shelved the visit for now.
Btw, I've a pack of brown rice which I want to grind. Is it ok to use normal home blender to grind it into powder or can I bring it to a shop or medical hall to pay them to grind for me?

Jingles, my friend's friend had a baby girl who weighed 10kg at 3mos. Total breastfeeding
Jac, I heard Gardens is very nice and I was looking forward to spending an afternoon there. Guess have to wait for a few more months. Anyway, my boy is not very keen on cereal. So I'm giving him brown rice in porridge form. Just need to see where I can grind it..

Dancing queen, my mum ask at medical hall before... Most of them don't grind it anymore. Bt u can check with the ones in your neighborhood. For me, I juz cook as per norm porridge in slow cooker. After ard 1-2h it's v soft already, I will use a spoon to press n mash the pumpkin n rice grain then add in si Shen powder to cook further for 1/2-1h.
Bb have been eating brown rice porridge since 7mth, no issue.

Mummies & Momobb, I cooked my short grain brown rice in slow cooker but have problem with the husk, which are too hard for baby to digest. What should I do? Sieve the porridge?? The husk is where the nutrients are right?
