We've just come back from my hometown in selangor near KL. Yasmin had so much fun looking at boats, fishes, and live chicken!
She demanded to see fishing boat unloading and counted shrimps and fish on the floor. She poked on fresh fishballs when her grandma made them. We also fed monkeys
We've put some pic and videos on Danny's blog.

hi mommies,
Danny'd just shown me an article shared by his friend on vaccination and autism....
http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2007/06/15/couricandco/entry2934107.shtml?source=search_blog.

Always wonder if there's any side effect with all the jabs Yasmin has to take.... |

Hi Meiling, Celia&Danny
Ya, boys talk later than girls. When my boy wasn't talking at 18 months, we thot he dumb! Coz my girl was jabbering away at that age! But he's okay now, and learning fast too, so we have to watch what we say in front of him. He picks up words really fast! |

Adora,
Yah, I know TBF bb does not need water... I din give cay water too but she ends up hating water. Sigh... you should have seen how I feed her water. The other tods will guai guai drink from their bottle, cay will run away at the sight of the bottle. I have to spoon feed her. 
I am worried bbcay will turn out to be the same so I thought of starting her early on water. But then again, she also refuses to drink leh. So far, she only drinks a little bit every 2 days. |

hi batman,
our email is celiadanny@hallmark-babies.com
yes some of you may feel our email add very familiar, yes we are the importer of hallmark babies brand apparel. Sometimes we are at the counters in Robinsons over weekends.
We also watch ourselves not speaking singlish in front of yasmin.
Caymon,
It's ok to spoon feed cay, she is TBF right? so may be that's why she is rejecting the bottle. Yasmin was the same, she would only drink from the bottle when she is absolutely starving! So far she only used the bottle 2 times in 2 years. We also spoon feed her, or you can try feeding cay using a small cup, like those for tasting drinks in supermarket. Just tilt it and touch her lower lips, she'd probably lick up the water like a puppy, it's quite cute. It has the added advantage of not causing nipple confusion. |

Celia,
Thanks for your advice. I stopped bfg cay (my 1st daughter) when she was around 13mths old. She hates water, even if we feed her using a cup, she will purposely push the cup to spill the water.  Maybe she is in terrible two stage now so very naughty and rebellious.
I'm now TBF bbcay, my 2nd daughter. She is not that resistant to water compared to jiejie but she will play with the teat before she finally drinks. If the bottle is EBM, she will suck immediately. |

Caymom
My boy (bf for 18 months) used to hate plain water too. But when we gave him no choice, he just had to guai guai drink lor! We place many different types of drinking vessels around the house for him, all filled with only plain water!
Previously he only drinks diluted juice. My hb say very siong after a while. I agree. Now, he drinks plain water, except when he sees his older sister drinking juice from a pack, then he'll also want one. We've removed all packet juices from our fridge. Special treat on Sundays at my mum's house! |

 Mich,
this end of the yr then i'll formally grad.
my boy too! bully his grandmother!!!! though she 'discipline' him but he knows how to act 'pitiful' in front of her.... also my MIL isn't much of a fierce woman... discipling doesn't seem much like discipling....
cowandchick, dsmummy
Leroy's not speaking coherent language as in someting that we would understand. still babbling "paaaa, ah paa, maaaa, ah!, oooo, M... etc..."
lolz.... yeah, i'm so worried what his first words will be other than ball/ba(bus)/book.... his father tends to swear when watching tv... bad habit of being v engrossed in it.. else abt his work! *hai*
pointed upper lips = talkative person???
lolz! then my girl will probably b a talkative one! now at 2.5mths she can coooo at us already! :P
yeah Leroy's really tall... today brought MIL, him and bb out to tampines mall, then 1 of the ladies in a boutique remarked he looked like 4yrs old! *faintz*
celia
my girl still prefers direct latch-on... closer to mummy i guess.... heh... too kanchiong drinking from the bottle everytime... |

drinking water
Leroy started out not drinking much water, but now he's like drinking much more water on certain days though sometimes he doesn't drink as much.
Clarice isn't drinking much at the moment but i'm not fretting la. just put bottle to her mouth frequently and if she suckles for abit that's great, if she doesn't that's alright too.
my MIL realised that he loves packet drinks too and hides them in plastic bags so he doesn't find them too easily! when we r out and we drink them, we'll share with him alittle... heee...
help take care of sister??? hmmmm....
celia, when he sayangs her, he gives her a 'muacks!', sometimes he brings her bottle of water and tries to feed her, if she cries and there's no adult around (in the room) he tries to pick her up...
when he kachiaos her, he tends to be somewhat rough and she would cry her lungs out... he would take her bean-sprout pillow away (and even swip at her) or pull at her hands and feet/toes... and he laughs! so we dunno if he's trying to play with her or something else...
his slightly older cousin played with the pillows by throwing them around when we visited so i'm guessing he probably picked that up since he had fun with his cousin then... |

Hi Meiling
My boy's first word was "truck" and he said it so beautifully, almost as if he was born with that word in his mouth!
Took a longer while for mama or mummy to appear. Only lately has he started saying "mummy"!
Your course the PGDE? Which subject areas? I used to teach before I quit to become SAHM after my girl was born. That's a good 10 years ago! Am thinking of taking up distance course on special ed. But still thinking about it! So lazy after such a long break! Don't know if my brains still working! heh heh |

It's the imitating part that is rather worrying. Anything also repeat, very scary. So we have to watch whatever we say.... Even got my brother and sister to co-operate here. That boy is like a 'sponge'!
Incidentally, my boy also like Spongebob Squarepants! There goes the brains! Sigh! He looks forward to it every evening, and even wanted me to buy the VCD! No way! |

celia,
just wondering if $5 per family, does it mean 2 adults, 2 children? then the mummies would have to go to the theatrette with the baby while the daddy and other child? does it mean there are other programmes planned for that day?
sorry, doesn't seem to be much info on the site...
btw, think a typo ... missed out the 'f' in the hyperlink. www.breastfeeding.org.sg

Hi,
I guess you won't have to tweak bb's feeding times, they would gladly enjoy one more 'snack'.
We especially encourage mommies who are still breastfeeding older babies to join us, we want to show mommies that it is possible to feed babies beyond 6 months. You'll see quite a few BMSG counselors still breastfeeding their 1.5, 2yr old even 5 yr old. |

Hi Meiling,
Babies can be trained not to bite on the breast. Whenever he bite, just unlatch him and tell him that if he bite, he won't get the goodies! After a while they can learn by themselves that they should bite on the breast.
My DD used to do that too, but using the method above, she learnt not to bite. A lot of mommies stopped direct breastfeeding and express and feed only, but this will lessen the stimulation and may reduce milk supply and also it lost your breasts' ability to help your child to fight flu/disease. Some stop altogether, which is a pity, because breastfeeding shouldn't be painful. |

my ds got HFMD when he was abt 6 mths due to "playing" with the car rides outside to the coffee shop at my mum's place.
Basically when kids had HFMD, their mouth and throats will have sores hence they might not want to eat as it hurts to swallow, they might get cranky depending on the seriousness of the HFMD. Like wat Meiling suggest, give them plently of fluids, maybe give porridge or more milk if they can't chew properly. |

Batman,
If both of them has HFMD then they are alright to stay together right?
When DD got HFMD we didn't even know it was HFMD because she doesn't go to nursery. She may have got it on public transport, that's the only thing we could think of.
Actually I got it first, then DD, finally DH. There was no spots on hands or feet, but only sores in the mouth. DD got the lightest probably because of TBF. Me and DH was the worst, It hurt even when we drank water. DD nursed all the time, since she feels hurt when eating.
We cooked lots of cooling brews, like water chestnut, carrots drink. It took us 2 weeks to recover. DD got well within days.
Unknowingly before we found out we had it, we passed it on to our friends whole family when they come visit... |

meiling,
First my son is having fever abt 2 to 3 days, then the blisters on the hands, arms, elbow and foot start to appear. So I will bring him to see doc to double confirm.
Sigh! They went back to school yesterday liao. But this morning teacher called me again on my younger son, he's having fever again. I'm so scare them having fever becos my hb not allowed me to feed them fever med. He said I'm doing this, is harmful to them. He doesn't even allowed me to sponge them. He has a very weird thinking. He said their body will fight against the virus itself. So if I feed them med to bring down the fever, which means I'm actually bringing down their immunity system. |

batman,

When dd had high fever the first time, we paniced and called our pd's emergency number at night.... He only advised us to sponge bath her with luak warm water on the both sides of the neck, under the armpits, and on both sides of the inner thigh to slowly cool down the body and it really worked. Never use cold water because the body would contract to fight against the sudden cold and produce more heat. Cold bath is only used in extreme cases like continued high fever. |

Hi Mummies,
Is it true that children having cough/phlegm cannot eat fish? I only heard chicken cannot eat. But my MIL said cannot eat fish as it will cause more phlegm. My girl don't really eat meat. |

Hi Jenny,
Yes there is a saying like that... last time me and dd had flu and cough, we visited a TCM Doctor in AMK Hub. She told me not to fish for a while saying that fishy food is not good for recovery... Chicken is heaty so should stay away from too. The best is Pork which is mild and neutral. You can try steam minced pork patty. or soup noodles with minced pork for a few days.. |

ValC,
Welcome to the thread. This thread is not as active to the neighbouring threads. My gal is also a May05 baby. She doesn't drink much milk since she was a baby and she is also drinking less lately. I also hope she can drink more because she is not taking much solids either. Is your son taking more solids to compensate for the lesser milk? |

ValC,
welcome!
My boi also dun drink much milk. Now 3 bottles a day. 150ml morning, 150ml after nap and 100ml before bedtime. He has gone for a few milk strikes, but after few days, back to normal routine. Still taking his FM. I have been trying all types of fresh milk n packet milk (adults n kids) in various flavours, he just refuses to take. Sigh! PD said if he dun wan milk, is okie, just make sure it is substitute with other calcium products. So if he is on milk strike, I give him cheese n etc. |

my son is also refusing his usual lunch and dinner. he's becoming really skinny. i can tell/feel when i carry him by his armpits. he was sick abt a week ago. but now he doesn't seem sick anymore(no runny nose or coughing) how come he's still not back to eating and drinking.
i desperately want him to drink his milk cos it's rich in nutrients which is lacking in his diet. he's a fussy and small eater. tomorrow will be the 7th day he's on feed strike. v scared. malnutrition? dehydration? |

ValC,
can understand yr worried! If he is drinking water, he wont be dehydrated. Will he take cheese slice? It is normal to lose appetite when he is sick. Glad he has recovered. Maybe you try to give him more small meals frequently to see how and change to noodles, pasta, bread or other items which are his favourites. U must be so tired. Take care of yourself too. |

Sally,
cay is also drinking 3 bottles a day. We will make around 180ml for her but usually she will finish 150ml. When do kids wean off milk? My mom said I stopped drinking milk at around 3yo but I think kids these days may drink milk until 6yo right?
I hope cay can continue drinking because she doesn't eat much solids. I think it is because we did not introduce a great variety of food to her. Now, anything that is unusual, she will spit it out.
You know she is still eating her brown rice cereal. That is still her favourite food. Although it is easy to prepare, she cannot forever eat that right. She now eats rice but she will spit out the vege. She only eats the vege when we cook it in porridge. My mom said most kids dread vege and will outgrow it eventually. I hope so leh. |

ValC,
My gal is also quite skinny. Her face may be round and chubby so most people feel that she is very well-fed but her body is very skinny. My PD said kids will not starve themselves so when she doesn't want to eat, I just leave her. My mom said cannot always dun eat and force feed her. Luckily my gal is very scared of my mom and will listen to her. But hor, see my gal cry and eat at the same time, I feel sorry for her. I mean, even adults will have sudden drop in appetite mah.
For your son, maybe he just recovered so his appetite has not fully resumed. Give him some time but make sure he drinks enough water. |

Caymom,
Wow Cay still drinks alot compared to A. Think better dun wean them off milk. But kind of switch them from FM to fresh milk might be better lor. My sis' kids (5 n 6 yrs) still drinking FM from bottles. I cant wait to wean him off from bottles. But other moms said, if u wean off bottles, they will drink less milk. Dunnoe how true.
A at times will ask for his oats cereal in the morning or middle of the day. Think gian. hahaha
Vege - A also hates it, so need to mince/cut into small portions. Hope they outgrow lor. |

Sally,
I see. I also hope cay can continue to drink milk because feeding her solids is a puke-blood affair. Dunno whether she will become a fussy eater in future. Do u think switching her to Pediasure will help? I saw in advert that it is meant for picky eaters right.
I dunno whether wean off bottles will drink less milk. For cay, she refuse water big time if we feed from bottle but from cup, she is fine and even asks for more. Can't be sure about milk.
I'm starting bbcay from solids already. Want to do it better this time and prevent her from turning into a picky eater. I was kinda bochap when I intro solids to cay.... basically just brown rice cereal and simple porridge.  |

we try to feed him milk with cereal like thos adult's box cereal which sometimes he like. but even that he wun eat. he wun eat his usual lunch and dinner food either.
i hope the theory about kids not starving themselves is true. keeping fingers crossed that he will eat/drink milk something soon. |

ValC,
Actually, I have seen a case where the baby went on milk strike and has to be hospitalised, so in a way, I have my doubts over the saying that kids wun starve themselves. I guess occasionally is ok but if to the extent of making them sick, we have to do something abt it. |

how abt giving him stage 3 bb cereal now? How abt bb bottle food? U think he would like? How about pancake? Bread? Noodles? Pasta? Cake?
When my boi sick, n no appetite, my mom would boil plain porridge. U noe those watery kind, boil longer n give to my boi to drink cos she said would make him full too. U try. |

hi sally & caymom
thanks for asking. jared is now back to drinking his milk after his 8 day strike. which is a huge relief for me. i thought he was going to wean himself off like he did his pacifier. the 1st time he took his milk after a long time we were all so happy. but he's still fussy about food. had to coax him like mad. his vomitting lasted for 3 days. |

Hi mommies,
My gal is also a May05 baby. I thought my gal drink very little already but it seem that she drink a lot after reading some of the posting. She drinks 300ml in the morning and night and 270ml in the late afternoon. She still take her regular lunch and dinner as well. Always took an hour to finish her solid meal. Anyone have any idea which can make her eat faster? She also a night cat.. unwilling to sleep till 11 - 12 plus.. yesterday worst, slept only at 1.30am.. |

Hi sally,
My gal cannot sit still at the dinning table. She always walk around the house when having dinner. sometime I wish I got a controller can press a button for her to sit still and eat faster.
She normally wakes up at 10 - 11 plus. she will only nap in the afternoon for 1 - 2 hours if she wake up at 9 plus. My maid slim down quite a lot just by looking after her. That y I always tell ppl, dont need to go for slimming course. Just help me to look after my gal can liao.. lol... |

Put inside highchair, or booster seat. My boi sits on his own little tikes table set during meals times when we are not eating together with him. If we are eating at the same time, then he sits on the booster seat at the dining table. Wow so late wake up. Maybe u train her to sleep early, then not so shiong. |

Dearie,
Welcome to the thread.
Your gal drinks so much milk. Mine only drinks 180ml max per feed. My gal also walks around during lunch/dinner. She refused to sit in high chair since young. Now I'm trying to cultivate the habit of sitting for my 2nd bb.
My gal is also a nite owl... usually sleep at midnight. Now she has dark circles under her eyes liao as she wakes up early because we need to send her to my mom's place before going to work. |

Sally,
I tried before letting her sit in her high chair and eat together with us but she dont want leh.. I also tried putting her in her own table and chair still the same. So I thought she might want to eat herself, so let her tried, but still fail..
I always ask her to go to her room to sleep at 10 and somemore sing song and pat pat her to sleep still dont work.
Sometime I give up, I ask my maid to look after, I go sleep myself.
Caymon,
sometime my gal also have dark circles under her eye leh.. so poor thing lor.. |

actually before I saw this thread, I always think my gal drink very little and always want to increase her milk intake... maybe because my bro DD drink 360ml each time.. sometime i still force her to finish her milk, quite bad lor. now come to think of it, i think it normal for them to reduce the intake of milk when they grow older as they might want to eat more soild food.. |

sori not keen in joyhouse enrichment.
He is doing fine in his kindy, n his chinese teacher said his mandarin is better than the chinese kids in terms of pronounciation etc. So wont wan to stress him with additional enrichment class. hee
U should check out Berries. Their mandarin prog is excellent. If I sign up for mandarin class, I will go for Berries. |

Hi sally,
wow. Great to hear that akinesh is doing well in mandarin. (",) He has always been a fast learner right.
I'm actually considering Berries too. Alot of my forum mums I know recommend to me too. But since Joyhouse is giving FOC trial. I don't mind going for the trial 1st then decide. Berries at Thomson don't have weekend classes. So it's difficult for me. |

Dear all
We are still short of sponsors and volunteers for the outings arranged for the Underprivileged children, below is the updated numbers :
No. of Children Sponsor : 12
No. of Volunteers : 6
We hope to have about 45 children and 35 volunteers to come along for this Ice Cream Making Workshop, for those who can help, do get back to me by 15 May 2011 so we will have sufficient time to send out the flyers to the children.
In the event we are unable to get sufficient sponsors, we will cancel the outing and will refund those who have sponsored so you can use the funds to reach out to others instead.
Thank you

Targeted number of Children : 45
Volunteers required : 25
The cost for each child is about $35.00 which will cover the cost of the event, including lunch and cookie packs for each child. We hope each of you can sponsor at least one child for the trip, we will also need some volunteers to join us for the trip to take care of the children and help them out during the ice cream making workshop when we are there.
For those who would like to sponsor, you can mail a cheque payable to “Maple Lifestyle”, indicate “VRN June” and mail it to :

Please let us know the details of your cheque such as bank, cheque number and amount via email if you are sending by cheque.
For those who preferred to funds transfer, please do email me separately for the account number to transfer.
Do remember me to update me so I can consolidate the sponsored funds, we will stop accepting funds once we have enough as per our usual practice.
And for those who are keen to volunteer, do provide me with the following particulars :
1) Name
2) NRIC
3) Contact Number
4) Email address
The cost for each volunteer is $38.00, we will likely be getting McDonald Lunch for everyone, if you are a vegetarian, do inform us and we will pack lunch separately for you.
We hope to be able to get your support to sponsor up to a max of 45 children from the low income family group for this trip.
