Grumpus,
So how much a baby can eat depends on each individual right? As long as they can sleep thru and not losing weight then ok? My girl's weight has been stagnant for a month now, she is only on two solids and a very small breakfast, and abt 600ml milk. She sleeps thru till 4 or 5am from 8pm so I guess she's getting enuf?
I dread to think of feeding them rice and taking one hour. Now, it takes abt close to 20 mins to feed my girl, but that's coz if she doesn't want, her mouth is shut tight and she will start crying if continue to feed her. So mission abort by 20 mins. But my mom said I used to take one hour to eat also, do I expect my daughter to be any different?
Gan,
I still feed the cereal from bellamy and organix cuz I bought stock from before. Will start them on quaker oats soon.
Faith,
Any reason why u use the blue oats instead of instant? How to prepare and how long does it take? Is the texture very coarse?

actually they shd be putting on weight too. so I guess yr girl can afford to take more. but how much each bb eats really is very individual. my elder girl could sleep 10-11hrs at night without milk at this age. but I was constantly feeding her all day.
yes I get the same comment from my mum too tat I used to take one hr to eat an she had to frequently nag at me to chew swallow etc so she keeps telling me to be more patient with my girls

When u cook porridge.. U throw everything including fish to cook together? I still steam the vege and meat separately.. Then add into cooked plain porridge... Hmm.. Maybe i didnt cook it together so the porridge not to flavourful?
Cos i read a book that says cooking meat and vege separately can retain more nutrients that cooking together with the porridge...

Mine dinner dunno success or not. Grace finished 1/4 bowl of udon noodles..initially she was excited and kept shouting for more but I was happ too soon...after few spoons, she started waving her hands. So I use hand to feed her, manage to feed alittle more. Vege she only took the pumpkin, and she wanted self feed, when I want to use spoon coz the pumpkin was soft due to over steaming, she screamed at the spoon but self feed happily. Fruit disaster..as usual want to self feed, the jambu suck a few times, threw n the floor. =s
Weetabix is tasteless to me, that's why I said not nice. =) but kids may like coz they are not expose to salt, sugar like us.

What's written in books are base on research and best case scenario. No right or wrong method, raising kids is base on practical experience. But by 1 yr old, their system is fully mature to handle adult food and when u travel with them don't have to worry what they eat and what they don't eat. My boy is also taking table food already, I don't cook specially for him now on most days, unless we are having food that are unsuitable for him. These few weeks always have xmas party, so he follow us have all the party junks as meals on those days. Junk food no need training, once he taste straight away ask for more, I can't feed in time, keep screaming for more. Yesterday, he took, bruschetta bread, meat balls, veg pie, quiche and fruits for dinner. I don't control milk intake, unless overweight, then must control.

U know soybean is toxic right ? Must soak the beans overnight and preferbly remove the skin before using exp. if the stock is for bbs. Also don't use so much at one go.

Don't worry, can use just need to soak and rinse well. I usually don't use alot for making soap, just a handful along with other vegs or meat.
Alot of food stuff now contains toxins, pesticides and a great % are also GM food, just that those sold contains acceptable level safe for human consumption. More people have cancer now, we do not know whether its the food that we eat or the environment. So don't think so much, if we know we just try to prevent as much as possible

Working wife, no particular reasons. Cause mummy dont like instant cereal so bought the blue packing. Btw, anything that's instant, i don't like. Just like canned food and maggie mee. I dont like all these stuff.
Gan, for stock, sometimes I use sweet corn, carrot, tomatoes. Occasionally I add in pork bones, depending on what I have in the fridge. Btw, when u were preggie, I remember u also ate more veg and fruits and less meat, maybe that's why yr girl prefers vegetable than meat. Haha

Panda ok, coz today I wash one by one, still have . So use tissue to rub the skin?
Read the white stuff is natural protection to the berries so wasn't too worried abt it previously. But after seeing bubbly's post, I better be more careful what I put in my gal's mouth!

Actually no need to be that particular.. Since we didnt use all organic vege and fruits... Non organic ones even didnt see white residue.. There is also chemical and pesticide... Washing and soaking cant remove all also... So for organic ones i only rinse... Non organic ones i will soak....
Just gave my elder the instant quaker oats... Add chopped strawberries.. She ate a few mouths and spit out the oats.. But she ate the strawberries... Made her organix oats cereal plus the strawberry.. She happily finished all...
Hmm... She dont like the coarse oats i guess... First time she reject the food i give her...

Brought my gal to jwt for the free trial, not bad coz Grace got to crawl around n play with swing, flying carpet etc. But felt gymboree more structured, but since free, I am happy! Heeee
Panda/ baby if u gals got UOB credit card, can bring ur babies there for the free trial. With ur maids is manageable.
Happy hippo, did u go try the free trial? Thanks for the recommendation!

Gan, photoshoot was taken at The Studio Loft. Abt an hr. I paid $150 for the photoshoot and another $250 for unedited photos in CD. Total 170 shots. Later I will email you the link to her album.

So I printed one in A1 for our dining area and 3 A2 for her room. All collected in less than 24hrs.
