Yeap I eliminated all dairy products, and my lo is on mostly EBM (pumped out cos he doesn't want to latch) now but initially in the first week as my milk only came in on 7th day, he was on fm. For now, occasionally once in about 2-3 days, I will feed him fm if I feel that my supply is kinda low for the week. Fm is Nestle NAN HA, was told by PD to change from Similac as the latter was sweeter and caused some phlegm. Hmmm, lemme try to see what else I can do, thanks mummy!

I'm also taking care of bb alone...but my parents come 2-3 days a week to cook for me and mop the floor. Morning is the most busy time. Have to wake up before bb wakes up to have bf. Once she is up, need to bf her.... Play with her... Bathe her. Only when she falls asleep then can go toilet or quickly prepare lunch. Have to make use of her sleeping time to do thing and rest. I'm also still not good yet...but just take it as it comes. Can't plan too much.
Confused by the number of vaccinations for bb. I went to poly clinic for hep b 2nd dose at 1 month.
My understanding?...
Compulsory and free for sg citizens at poly:
Hep B 3rd dose: 5-6 months
5 in 1 which is Dtap, IPV and Hib right? To be taken at 3,4,5 and 18 months?
MMR: 12 month for 1st jab and 15-18 months for 2nd jab
Optional jabs and payable:
Pneumococcal - 3,5 and 12 months
Chicken pox: 2 doses after 1 yr old
A few of you mentioned Rotavirus. Saw that in pd's schedule but not under polyclinic. How many doses and how much? Can get from poly?
Any other vaccines?

I think diff brands may hv diff amt of water for one scoop.
My boy poops everyday le, but hard stools. See him straining so poor thing. My #1 was on enfamil but no such problem, guess every kid is different.

Polyclinic can get the rotavirus oral medication. I rem have to take the first dose after 12wks old, n before 16wks. Den got 2nd dose. If over the age for 1st dose means cannot take the rotavirus. Have to call and check. I heard bedok polyclinic dont have, so have to call other polyclinic to make the appt. i went wdls n tpy polyclinic both have. Fyi.
I also remember infant fm is 30ml water 1 scoop. Haha unless is older kids is 50ml 1 scoop. But ya lots of brand in market ..so have to read before making the milk!
@Yi Fang i know what u mean when bb throw the body back den reflux etc. same as mine, this week happened countless times, ytd was the worse after i ate ice cream. Sigh. I nv bring to pd or give med yet, jus trying to monitor thou he still puke tdy.. =[
The med tat pd prescibed works for ur bb?? But is it like supplement kind? Can stop any time or good to continue?
Mummies, u ladies are great! I alone take care of lo for 1/2 day sure become moody! Haha. Somemore i duno how to cook. U all still can eat n do hsehold chores, salute!!
I'm confused too. I know we can choose either 5-in-1 or 6-in-1 but whichever we choose, the baby has to be 3 mths old to take the jab. How come so many 2mth old babies here took 6-in-1 already?

I also take care of my boy myself.. But I'm quite lucky that my mil will bring lunch for me almost everyday... Sometime my boy can play himself quite a while so I can go shower, wash bottles all these.. Then sometime no choice just have to let him cry moreover he don't nap long in the afternoon. I always very stress if he don't nap one..
By the way, I thought baby like to be on their tummy but my boy seems to dislike it.. Everytime I try put him on tummy he will make noise..

Hi mummies,
I have a qn here..pls help.
Recently I changed bottle teats for my LO but somehow he doesn't like the new teats.
I used teats for 1mth+ and also tried 3mth+ (lo is 2mths +), both he disliked. He drinks as if very diff to suckle the bottle & face turn red..
End up DL more often. I used to feed him via bottle and only DL during wee hours...
Did u experience such case?

Mummies, LO is 8wo and is extremely fussy and sticky - wants to be carried all day long and doesn't want to sleep. Any other LOs the same at 8w? TIA!
