The therapists were asking me if I join Dr Khoo for the premies support group under her wings. I didn't cos I believe she has a good support team already. I prefer to give support to the trachy baby's family.
After I heard her saying that there are a number of 24 and 25 weekers now, my heart sank, can only pray that the family will be as strong as all the mummies here to give their best to the babies during their difficult period.

i thought cod liver oil supposed to be very good right? anyway, i heard from one experienced parent if the child's breath very hot and smelly means very heaty.. plus if pee more orangey or yellowish than usual also means heaty.
mich,

precious
congratulations!!!!! u must be overjoyed!
kkf
haha..u are in your sian sian mood again!!! like me!!!! argh!! i hate work!!! wish can be sahm!! these are the days when i feel like these. sianz!!
update on bryan
bryan has been seriously refusing his milk.. takes like 1 hr to finish. This is more so after nutritionist advise us to add milk powder for faster weight gain.. Think we going to try other brands. now on friso. plan to try similac excellence next. anyone knows if i can get samples? hubby has gotten very verbally agrressive everytime he feeds bryan so i end up taking over all the feeding, plus need to express, wash all the bottles, etc until i got so little sleep. i feel so overwhelmed cos troubleshoot so long still dunno what the problem is. hb focus on his anger that bryan not gaining weight and dunno how to play supporting role. wan to cry liao.

xbliss, you can get milk samples from padetrician. dun worry, dash got one stage also refused milk. I remember very clearly we tried all sorts of ways like you too, change milk lar, change to cereal lar, go tui na (you can try that?) etc.
Precious one, 24 weeksers? you remind me of my jared again...if only he survives...sigh.
You know what mummies? I am going to join a marriage course with my hubby. I really feel like my marriage is not the same as before, so better go for some enrichment now. haha. It is a total of 5 sessions with other 7 couples at the instructor's house. Hope it will be useful.
So now every sunday afternoon will be occupied. Wun have time for dash...poor boy. hee.
Jane, dun think cod liver oil has side effect right?
disneymickey, yah lor, you make me reflect leh, you and your hubby so loving and enjoying life together! envy. Me and my hubby must learn more...hee.
I will be taking my own leave (you know wat I mean, haha) to see dr ann tan next thursday. haven't seen her, she is sooo famous, packed with appointments. Nowadays really dunno why so many premature labor, think I better do watever I can to prevent my next one from being premature again, though I know fully well...not easy.

you sound quite troubled with bryan milk intake issue. maybe you wish to check if the teat hole is too small (bryan find it hard to suckle perhaps?), stomach got wind?, he is full hence don't want to drink (perhaps try drag the feeding interval?), he want to eat solid food??,
last but not least, can try change brand of FM. i change from Gain to Enfa and siang drink quite well... so yes, i would say can try to change
pat pat...i think men is generally more short temper and not that patience. you ren a bit longer, i am sure bryan milk intake will increased soon.
Bryan growth percentile is quite ok right...the neonat at KKH does not raise any issue right.
re the heaty thing, thanks. maybe i try to smell siang breath
hi kkf
me too think me and my lao gong need to have some form of time together. the strain over the last 18mths really have wored me/us out. now that siang is bigger, think we can relax a bit and have a little bit of time to ourself (thou its very hard because weekend i am the only caregiver). but.... you remind me. think i should find something relaxing that the 3 of us can do together. have some fun...
let me know what dr ann advise after your appointment with her ah. i am sure many things can be done to ensure you have smooth pregnancy the next round. have faith

I think many babies here went through a stage of milk rejecting.
It may not necessary due to the milk powder. Did you try a teat with a bigger hole?
Bloom

I am so glad that it is TGIF! Had been working very late past few days.
Have a nice weekend!

My hearts goes to you and Catherina. Catherina is a warrior and she will emerge a winner once again. It's hard to ask a mummy not to worry when a child is sick, but please drink essence of chicken or whatever nutritious food to keep up your energy for the next 2 weeks. Will pray that GOD's strength and peace be with you and your family and GOD will also bless Catherina with a successful surgery.

FAIRYLANDER, dun worry too much, hope all will be fine with cathrina. I understand your worries...last time when dash had heart operation, I was worried to death too. I will pray for cathrina's surgery to be successful. You may want to consider staying at their family room or macdonald room after cathrina surgery.
Btw, does cathrina need to stay in their Children ICU after surgery or just normal ward? Last time dash stayed in ICU, want my life, so worry. Then tell you, sometimes, if their ICU full, then will have problem.
All the best, and keep us in touch yah?

hi mummies,

wat a trying time for you and your family. But u know something, we all here have in common a strength that no other mummies can beat. I agree with precious, drink more essence of chicken as u will be very taxed during that period. I am glad actually that medicine and science is so advanced. our little ones may not have the best bodies to start with, but it is not without hope. dun despair. i was worried sick when bryan went for hernia op. it's nothing major but when i handed him over to surgeon, i dashed to toilet and cried buckets. One hour later, i picked him up and it didnt seem like an issue anymore. our little ones thrive and u must have faith and confidence in them.
mich, jane, dm,
tk u for advice. i think i tried everything except change milk cos cant get similac 1. all sold out at the places i went to. hai.. hubby and i have veery bad sleep last week.i hope it changes soon. wat a phase...
mummies,
there will be livewell bb show at century sq kiddy palace 28 jun 12pm to 6pm. it's for the bb magazine "live well" launch. not sure wat there is.. but think may have some promos or wat lor.

Morning mummies, dropping a message.
Fairylander, still thinking about you, hope everything goes well with cathrina.
Got to go for oral today and tomorrow. Tired...
Anyway, looking forward to thursday! yeah! eating snake going to see dr ann tan. hee. The appointment is at 2pm, so in the morning, me and hubby can bring dash to school, and then bring him to in laws place makan, after that go dr ann tan, and plan somewhere else. We intend to go bugis temple to pray.
So tired...
What did you all do over the weekends? I brought dash to globetrotters to makan, nice place, very child friendly.
promoting his website again! www.ido.per.sg/dash
I attended the marriage course, nice course. The course is held at instructor's bunglow. There are 8 couples all together. It's a 3 hourly session every sunday for 5 sessions. I do find it good, as it makes me realise that actually my hubby is really very very good after doing their marriage survey, and I am the one who is lousy... We will be getting our report next week. I must treasure him more.

Saw fairylander post at home yesterday but no time to post. But my thoughts was all on cathrina.
fairylander - xbliss is right. mummies here have the faith and will that not all mummies have. things will be just fine. science and technologies is so advance.
we may have come from all walks of life. but we have one common arena. we all know its not easy to cope with all the life stress. cathrina will be ok. stay strong and let us know if u need help.
cathrina is a brave warrior and she will be ok with love and courage from you and your family and plus all of us here!

Cathrina is so beautiful. Love those big round eyes.
You are in my prayers.
May I suggest something? Raise all your concerns and worries to the surgeons before the surgery
Find out from them what are the measures they are taking to ensure that the blood clotting problem will be minimal during the surgery etc etc.
I notice if we dun ask, the docs usually won’t tell us more. Perhaps to them, we are just another patient, another case.
Hear it from them so you will feel more reassured.
I once had an unpleasant experience with a KKH surgeon. He didnt tell us more about the surgery and something happened.

fairylander,
pls pls pack lots of tonics for yourself k? healthy mummy=healthy baby. cathrina, the chio gal will do just fine. She will pack the pounds back when her problem is resolved! agree with mich to ask. we never fail to rehearse what we wanna ask docs on our way there. hb so ks will WRITE it all out.. n then we fire away. cos no answer sometimes very scary...
dm
today is complain day eh? hee. so coincidentally, i had the same issue with hubby! he packed my wallet (!)!@!#$@) into one of the NTUC plastic bags and when we reached home, couldn't find. he insisted i took it when all along i was carrying bryan.. in the end, he found out his mistake.. hai.. these men. but sometimes i also pity them. gotta work hard (like us), come home cannot be that DA NAN REN cos they got premies to care for. my poor hb feed bryan can break out in sweat cos bryan gets so cranky when feeding.. therefore, i really give it to them sometimes.
not many men can do these!
caregiving by in-laws are always to some extent problematic. the things they say, do to bryan or not do to bryan sometimes irks us! i try not to interfere as long as it does not have much impact.. but sometime inside dun feel "song" lor. hoping to place bryan into infant care when he can at least sit up on his own and take semi solids.
Jane,
think we going to stick to friso til it finishes then decide. we thought it do no good if keep changing milk leh..

ALL THE BEST fairylander, cathrina is soooo cute. She will do well, dun worry.
I agree with mich, do enquire all your doubts. I have unhappy experience with kkh surgeon too. That time was no children ICU bed for dash, and they wanted to push our surgery date back on the day he was supposed to admit to hospital! I had taken leave and we were all ready, yet they wanted to push back the surgery date because no bed.
dm, I think gong gong always dote on grandchildren. My dad and father in law all like that.
xbliss and dm, yah guys are like that one, sometimes driving us crazy.
Dm, yes, I learn to appreciate my hubby more now.
Me so tired, having flu, yesterday ate drowsy medicine. Really hope to take MC today, but got to save it for thursday...somemore got oral today. Dash is down again! sigh...he has flu and cough again. NOT AGAIN...SIGH...Want my life. He is sick almost every month. What can I do?????????????

i see. hope soon can find out exactly why bryan seem not to be drinking much milk. i guess its a tedious process but well, all of a sudden he may start to drink again. so long his weight is gaining i guess its ok. otherwise try drag his milk intake timing and etc and etc... really non stop experimental.
true hor, our hubby not easy too...come backs till have to face a premmie... sayang them too. everyone in the family have their own individual stress...
fairylander
guess you must be quite busy getting ready for this afternoon. cathrina will do well. keep us posted and do really take care of yourself too.
kkf
this morning my mum was telling me the haze seem to be coming back "want my life"
many pple falling sick. dash got take the flu vaccination? i am now letting siang eat the scotts cod liver oil.... hope it will help in building up his immunity. hey actually accordingly to study, majority of the kids fall sick once a month... research study show. my collegaue told me she saw a research say that kids fall sick nearly to 100 times per year (and its like a norm)..."want my life"
quickly let dash drink more water and maybe avoid the crowded places

kkf..ahahha.. u make ur hb sounds like an angel...
dm... sigh... to put it jokingly, women only have one problem - their husbands ..
mommies, kate is strange..for the past 3 days, she is ok during daytime (maybe a slight cough left over from 2 weeks ago if she run too much) then at night after she sleep, she will cough cough then throw up. First time it happens on the way home (when she was sleepy), but Sunday and Monday evening she throw up after she sleep. Sighhh... maybe should all adult food intake and monitor first cos we had been trying to introduce her to outside food...
fairylander, cathrina is so cuteeeee!!!! keep us updated abt the surgery ok!
jane, 100 times a yr? we mommies dont have 100days of child care leave leh!
