Jerlynn also needs to hold on to something most of the times when drinking milk awake... but she will throw the thing after playing awhile, and we gotta keep changing the toy etc so that it is something new and will interest her...No point picking up the one she threw cos she will keep throwing it after dat...sianzz loh...same as HX loh, we have to standby alot things to let her hold...
She also like corners of clothes and pillows & she also dun wan hold her own milk bottle...haizzz Premmies realli are like graduated from same school hor, dunno who teach them same things...hahaha
Jerlynn recently skipped her 4-5am feed liao, so Happy!!! but it also means I have to keep feeding her whole afternoon, with 7-8 teaspoons of cereals (12 pm), followed by fruit (1pm), then some milk (only abt 100ml) (3pm), then a biscuit/snack (4pm), then 1 Rice bowl of porridge (abt 6pm), then if we having dinner (8+pm), i gotta give her a piece of tofu or egg yolk loh, cos she sees us eat, she also wan to eat...Apart from that, she drinks average 4 times 150ml milk...Damn Shack loh, me and my mum take turns feeding until damn tired...last time my mum come over in the afternoons I still can take a nap...now cannot ler
This way of feeding was recommended by the dietitian to skip her night time feed, and indeed it works!! but realli dunno when I go back to work..who can feed her like this?
Yan
Yah when Yilin gets bigger, then safer to use the "in-the-ear" type..now too young...
I tried that b4, it's really comfy, cos moulded to fit perfectly into the ear... and for Girls it's best...I used to work for a Hearing Aid Company...
Hi styi,
Welcome to the thread! Advertise abit here, U can also find us on Facebook.. Search for "Singapore Premmies" and join us there too...
Do not worry too much if the doctor already reassured u... my girl had bleeding in the brain as well as PDA not closed aka "a hole in the heart", and it realli resolved by itself few months later...
If the doctors knew anything u should worry about, they will not hesitate to tell u, trust me, the doctors are not very good at keeping the truth... they always will prepare us anything that is not gonna be good...
Give them lots love and hugs and I'm sure they will be back with u very soon!!!

mummylian...wah.. i thot if its full school fees then u can relax abit hehehe..but this sum will boost his confidence which is what our kids need!
tree ice,my gal dislike solids, eat incomplete meal, ..sighh...
afcai, ahaha.. i think u r proof that premmies are more difficult to 'maintain' than full term bbs ahahaha
gingal..wah..non stop feeding.. but my gal is in cc..cannot ask teacher to feed her like that... another reason for her sleeping thruout might also be the cooler weather (if u dont use aircon). my gal usually sleep better in the cooler months.... cannot use aircon cos her nose is sensitive and skin is dry.. (mah fun hor) i miss yahoo auctions too! the new gmarket is nothing in comparison!

bloom,
ya.. scare us too. cos u see.. they are premmie.. immune is low.. whenever she caught a virus, we will be scare..
mummylian,
ya, hope will improve too. but even if cannot improve, we are happy with the current result too. as compare to those that are totally impaired, she is lucky already..
afcai,
wah, morning can eat so many times ah.. HX no need morning nap? yilin need to nap around 9.30am leh, depending on her previous milk feed timing. she will take her 2nd milk feed and fall asleep. usually will sleep for about 1hr++. by the time she wake up, almost lunch liao.
gingal,
afcai's HX eating the whole morning, your Jerlynn gotta eat the whole afternoon.. haa.. so funny. but really difficult leh. will be very busy preparing food. after this meal, gotta prep the next meal.. maybe slowly give her bigger portion of food and reduce the no. of meal.
from wat i heard from u and afcai, i wondering did i give Yilin too little.. maybe u all can help me to judge,,
wake up : milk feed (about 6.30am, sometime as early as 5.30am, my mum wanna faint liao.. haa)
before morning nap : milk feed
lunch : 6-7 spoons of oatmeal + smashed fruit/pumpkin/sweet potato (sometime porridge)
after afternoon nap : milk feed
dinner : porridge/pasta 1 bowl (sometime she naughty, eat 1/2 bowl only)
depending on the dinner time, before sleep time, sometime will have 1 milk feed sometime 2 milk feed, cos she can sleep pretty early.. about 9pm.. sometime even earlier if she sleep enough in the afternoon.
in between meals, will give her jelly, fruit or biscuit as snack too.

Yan,
I dunno how to gauge Yilin's appetite leh...do u go for dietitian's appt still? They can reccommend better... Based on Jerlynn's CA 7th mth's appt, the dietitian is reccommending:
Morning Meal 6-7 teaspoons of Cereals,
Lunch 1/4 Rice Bowl of Porridge,
Tea Snack 1/4 slice of Fruit or biscuit,
Dinner 1/4 Rice Bowl of Porridge,
Milk Feed to be abt 600mls a day in total, If lesser try to feed some water about 40mls if she drinks only 500mls of milk...
Jerlynn pics always show her like very Big leh..but in real person smaller, ask the mummies who met her at the gathering...keke Maybe she looks fatter cos of her Cheeks la... keke
She caught running nose and couldnt sleep well last night... must be from the crowd in Orchard ytd..sad...

gingal,
we dun have the appt for dietitian already leh. base on your dietitian recommedation, i think yilin is doing ok ba.. though you have 3 solid meal, but yilin's portion is bigger and compiled into 2 meals. so not too bad la..
but recently after her jab, she has fever. then her appetite dropped though now recovered. she still eating solid well in the afternoon, but dinner she takes 1/2 bowl of porridge only, her milk feed also dropped.. usually can drink 230ml, now drop till 150ml only.. sometime even lesser..

hello mummies
seem a lot to catch up on the thread. I spot my name and siang
on speech wise, so far we are still on review with the speech/audio therapist. I am still montioring is speech progress (and over view). Was told by the teachers at his cc so far he is doing well but they will help to monitor for any changes in his hearing and learning progress.
Thanks for all the praise but he is really just a normal boy (despite he has hearing impairment) and like Yan, i too felt that (not that we wish to compare) our children is so much more fortunate. there are really children out there who faces much more challenges.
Yan - perhaps next round of gathering we can try to meet up. i let you see my Siang
and i would love to meet lovely yilin (who share the same birth date as siang)
gingal - interesting to know u ever work in a hearing aid device company. can i PM u? i got some question to ask

Hi Yan

your patience now will be rewarded in time to come. you will see it real soon, perhaps even now

oic...a cot selling at $99, hmm..indeed quite a catch. why not go forum and buy? for me, HX is still using his jie jie playpen to slp. it is also a great deal when I bought fr JL sales few yr bck at $70+.
<font color="aa00aa">kkf</font>,
did rebonding twice b4 few yrs back but the rebonding cannot ta han for long. ppls can ta han up to a yr or ++ but mine 8mth-9mth starting to become wavy.
<font color="aa00aa">gingal</font>
how long do J take to drink her milk?HX can take more than 20 mins to drink a 125-150ml of ebm. HX really make me boil and lost my patience in the morning. he luv to play with the teat, just hold the teat into the mouth without moving. scold him he will fake cry, keep on wanting to get out. dunno why....but sometimes, gg mood will drink finish the ebm. hai...
haa...indeed agree that premmies are like graduated fr same sch bec they live in the same rm (SCN) before they graduated from there and go home, right...so maybe they learn fr one another fr the room..
wow, J eat so much cereal. HX only 2 scoop of fm scoops. for fruit, he seems dun like any. I gave HX banana, apple (worst still, squeeze eyes and avoid) and avocado. all dun like. what he like best is bb biscuit.
hmmm why shack leh....gd that J took average 4 times of 150ml milk leh...unlike HX only 1 time 150ml, 2x120ml and 1 time 100ml. see not even 500ml wor....
hmm...J must be chubby(fr the fb's photos look) blar since she consume more than HX. hmm..J still went for dietian appt? when will she discharge? am curious to find out when did the dietian do during J appt? so far, J now is ok right, so dun think she need dietitian right?
re:sale item.
why not try ebay at sg side? no fees needed.
reumpkin
so far, HX only tried once pure one did not add into porridge.
<font color="0000ff">bloom</font>,
yeah....really even my mum surrender.....she care for us (3 siblings include me) plus my gar + my cousin also dun have behaviour like that. HX is really....err......just shake head and hope that he will be guai guai next time....
haa...tat's time, u have not see HX's face right bec he is covered with his handky when he zzz...he luv that if not, he will opened eyes and KPO.
<font color="119911">Yan</font>,
re:morning nap.
wkend will be happy hr for him cos mummy and papa ard so dun need to slp as the most priority thing to him is guai guai first than anything else. he can dun need to eat and slp one when gg out. my caregive said that during wkday, he will guai guaI slp bec hse quiet and nothing to distact him. so he will either nap after his bath at 9pm till 12pm+ if not 11am+.
yeah true, HX appetite is gd in the morning....noon time is either slp or play time.
re:wake up time.
is YL standard timing of waking up at 5am+ - 0630am? for HX like got programmed scheduler one. he will wake up at 0645am-7am on mon and sun (bec he 'chong' during wkend mah) and from tues-fri will wake up at 6am-0630am. sat will be either 0615-0645am. now he seldom wake up 5am+. if so, I heard he mumble but then fall asleep again, dun care again him.
u did not give YL any solid food for breakfast? like bread, cereal, zhu chang fen, water cake(in hokkien) or cooked mee sua etc b4 her morning nap?
if compare to my elder, HX appetite is far lesser liao. my gar (full term) last time better still can eat the whole day one (eg morning feed 6oz of ebm followed by cereal or bread 1 hr later, 4-5oz of ebm after morning nap ard 11am+, lunch- si shen brown rice then nap, 3pm drink 4 oz of ebm and then 5pm+ a rice bowl of porridge, 0730pm+ 6 oz of ebm again....1am-2am still got night feed of 6oz of fm) my caregive said, HX cannot bec of his small appetite. when he is infant, I suspect he got reflux cos he needed to be feed very small amt of milk hrly...if not, he will merlion out easily. so that's why my caregiver dun want to overloaded his small tummy.

afcai,

can add into porridge, quite tasty.
re:wake up time
yes, she never sleep past 7am. maybe beco he sleep pretty earlier.
as for breakfast, no leh. morning she will have 2 milk feed. each feed about 230ml. but afternoon, will have 1 bowl of cereal.
seem like for u, u give milk just 1hr after the cereal.. usually we will even out. every 3hr 1 meal, regardless milk or solid. hmm... is it we pull the timing too far apart already? i told my mum about the breakfast.. tmr will try to replace the morning 2nd milk feed with cereal. then lunch and dinner continue with the usual 1 bowl of porridge...

tree ice, yah yah, must tell ur gynae about those contractions, and maybe ask her to put u on monitor to track?? when i went ann tan last time, she will track for me each time i visited after 30 weeks i think.
yan, precisely, thats why headache. i everyday give violet fish. i am afraid will be too much for her, but then what else to give? pumpkin also cannot eat too much...vegetables, she dun quite like, carrot also cannot give too much. running out of idea.
wow, yan, gingal and afcai, seems like u are giving your babies cereal? i never give violet cereal in the morning leh...and i just give her milk, thats all. she is on 3 hourly milk, once or twice in the morning, then porridge, then milk again, then porridge, and milk again. so about 4-5 times milk of about 200ml, and two meals porridge around half bowl each time. in between she snacks on biscuits and bread too. she loves them. maybe i shd try on cereal as well.
terror wakes again...sigh

Yah ppl say cannot take too much, but J already ate almost daily for abt 2-3 months liao, *touch wood* she is not yellow yet... my MIL say it's ok to take pumpkin, but if carrots then gotta take moderately...maybe 2 or 3 times a week, so far the kids I knew that take pumpkin porridge daily didn't turn yellowish... BTW J can't take carrots, gave her twice b4, and both times also cannot digest properly loh, Poo Poo will be hard and also orange in colour... Yilin's Last feed at 8-9pm means it's the milk feed or the dinner meal? sometimes I still feed J tofu etc at 10pm leh, cos she Glutton, see us eat, she also wants...is it too late?
Shit... Talking abt Avocados, now I rembr i have 3 ripen ones in the fridge and forgot gave her eat any this week.!!!! Damn it loh, gonna spoilt again...I always forget...dunno my brain why so useless now...always buy alot things for her to try varieties, but always forget to give her!!!

oh yah, gingal u are not the only lor. i am always forgetting to cook. but sometimes not forgetting, but you see, like pumpkin, it is so big, i dun dare to let violet takes too many times per week, so in the end, by the time i want to cook the pumpkin again, it is already spoilt, and most of the time i only use 1/4 of it.
btw, meat and fishes are sooo expensive hor? i keep buying and buying until like very heart pain. haha. cause i throw meat everytime i cook porridge for violet to make it taste better.

Hi gingal & Bloom,
My gynae is the same one who see thru my 1st pregnancy.. He did prescribe me some med to prevent early labour and create more blood flow to bb.. But then again I m not satisfied with my bb weight.. He weighed 1589g at 29 wk but yest weighed 1.8kg to 2kg at 32wker.. I m jus worried he is slowing down on wt like his kor kor.. my gynae assured me this bb is growing well though..

Tree Ice, I think 1.589 kg is quite a good weight for a 29 weeker. Babies usually put on weight towards their due date. So don't worry about it. For me, my son was only 1.035 kg at 28 weeks. So dun worry yah? And 32 weeks is very good already. Remember to just rest alot if possible. k?
How come I didn't receive the notification of the Premmies Awareness Day arh? Its at KKH, right? My boy was from KKH wor..

I am a 29 weeker with 2 twin girls and i am currently seeing Dr SF Loh in KKH. Currently the smaller twin is not growing at the normal rate due to placenta issue (she is only 800g+ while the bigger twin is 1400+g). Dr Loh advised that i will have to deliver within the next 2 weeks. I have taken 2 jabs these 2 days to mature their lungs already and will be doing CTG scans over the next few days.
1- Anyone has the same experience as me? My condition is called IUGR. Mind to share your experience?
2 - Did you buy any insurance to cover NICU expenses? I am very worried about the high bills. Dr Loh has said that my smaller gal will have to stay in NICU for 2 months! Is it too late for me to buy insurance now? I read that it will be cheaper to downgrade to Class C - is that right? But if that is the case, that means i wont have Dr Loh to deliver my girls?? I am currently seeing Dr Loh in TPS.
3 - No one in TPS has spoken to me about booking of hospital bed etc. When are you girls approached to talk about this? My next visit to the doc is next Monday - hopefully i can clear this up and also have some advise on costing etc.

Hi VirgoAries, sorry to hear abt your situation. I don't have your condition but can help with the 1 question.
2. No, I did not buy insurance. I don't think you can buy any insurance for your unborn baby at the moment. Yes, it is better to downgrade to C class. I was with TMC and my gynea immediately asked me to trnasfer when I was leaking aminotic fluid. I stayed in KKH for 3 weeks in the C ward. Very uncomfortable cos sharing the ward with 5 other people. However, I know I don't really have to worry about the bill because I am in C ward and my baby will be charged C class price. Our bill was fully coveredbby medisave. Did not have to pay cash.
NICU is wardless meaning all premmies go there and are very well taken care of by the professional doctors. Nurses are very well trained to work in the NICU. Unless Dr Loh make special arrangement, you probably will be delievered by the attending doctors. That was what happened to me.
I am praying that all will go well with you and your babies. Try to get as much information as possible on premature babies so tt you will know what to expect. In the mean time, try to be positive though its difficult. And come in here for support cos we all have been through varying situation of premmies.

Hi Mummies,
Have been MIA in a while. Danya is doing well and challenging the damages cause by bronchiolitis. She is still has alot of phlegm. Will throw out phlegm almost after every feed.
So busy since Danya discharge. Busy moving all our stuff from our old place to our new dream home. Finally, tomorrow, we will give Danya a brand new environment. Finally, we are able to enjoy the fire work over the skyline at Suntec area on this coming new year eve count down.
Hi Virgoaries,
Welcome to our forum. I am a daddy of a brave warrior princess. All the mummies here are super mummies, very supportive and very helpful. My princess is also having a IUGR condition due to High BP and preeclampsia which my queen was suffering during the 2nd trimester onward.
Danya is born a 26 weekers with a birth weight of 590 gram. Your Gynea did the right thing. The steroid will mature your warriors lung within 48 hours.
Unless your pregnancy is via IVF or you have taken up a pregnancy policy before you conceive, otherwise, no insurance under writer is going to take up your case. If you know that your are going to delivery early, check into KKH and ask for C class ward. This will guarantee that your warriors will be bill under C class rate during their stay in NICU.
Nevertheless VirgoAries, be strong for your warriors. Teach them the spirit of fighting brave and strong. Is it also good to prolong the pregnancy but not at the expense of your brave warriors. FIGHT HARD, FIGHT BRAVE, FIGHT STRONG.

Hi VirgoAries,
If u really wish that ur gynae can deliver for u, what u can do is to opt for downgrade after u gave birth...
but quite a hassle to do so... and prior to approval, u still gotta pay the higher class rates...
I find the gynaes and midwives who delivered for me were quite ok... they were very encouraging too...

Hi afcai,
You really very good to share the info with us. But if indicate the packing will be better. Hee hee. Too much hor!
David,
Nice hearing from u. I also curious where u stay leh? Must be town area. Hope Danya recovers soon.
Hi VirgoAries
My boy also having IUGR due to placenta problem. He is a 26weeker with birth weight 635g.
David was right, unless u conceive thru IVF or buy insurance in the initial stage else no insurance company will cover u at this moment.
I was warded in B class, but my boy was downgrade to C class automatically due to forsee long stay in NICU. (but also subject to approval)
So you might want to downgrade to c class.
As for the bill, they will only discuss with you after you give birth. If you have any problem on yr bb's medical bill, you can talk to the social worker. A social worker will come to look for you after u give birth.
Be strong! Any other problem, you can ask the mummies and daddy here. They're helpful and friendly.

Hi Xiaowanzi, BabeliciousFat, David and Lilac,
Thank you all for your encouraging words..
I actually conceived via IVF, but in HK. Back there no one talked to me about buying insurance. Anyway, even if they did i will not be buying coz i know i will deliver in Singapore.
Anyways, it seems right now there is no way for me to buy insurance now and the only way to save $$ is to downgrade to Class C.
I will try to keep positive (though when i read up on IUGR on the web and learnt about the possible complications of IUGR children..i got really worried!).
Thanks again for being here.

Gingal, your J very cute leh.... still will squeeze her face. Very adorable. I like her.
David, thanks for sharing about Danya. May she recovers speedily and enjoy the fireworks! I know where you staying. Must be Duxton, right? Cos' a few of my friends got their keys during this period. Nice place!! If really Duxton, next time gathering at your place? Hee....
