Hi mummies,
Read your posts on our darling babies.. so funny.. brought a smile to my face with all the anecdotes.. I guess it's a stage where they will throw tantrums and scream to test our reactions.
One method u all may want to try is to get your baby to wave goodbye before parting with their toys or activity e.g. bathing. It works on Eddric. He doesn't throw a tantrum these days. When the onus is on them, it becomes easier for them to part with their favourite stuff.
Now I got a major headache. I don't know if any bb is like mine. Eddric will throw a HUGE tantrum when his daddy kisses or touches me. At first it was all very funny.. Now not funny anymore. Haha.. He is very possessive of me and would not let his father to come near me. N I cant ask him to say bye bye to daddy right? Any mummies face this problem? Really need some advice.. |

Hello Jojo, yes, I'm using the wave 'Byebye' method too on Vera especially those kiddie rides in Shopping Malls. For bathing, I would remove the toys one by one from(usually without her notice) the bathtub leaving herself and the water only. Usually after a while she would ask to be out of the bathtub. Hehe..
As for the hugging issue. Occasionally Vera will show a little displeasure when HB hugs or kisses me. But immediately we ask her to join in. We'll go and hug her together and kiss her cheeks, one at each side. She loves it, you can see the satisfying smile in her face. haha... |

Hi lizy,
Unfortunately, Eddric will protest louder if we have family hugs and kisses. Big headache.. *shakes head* |

Don,
Do u scrub the outside of the straw as well? Cos the black spots occur at the outside of the straw
Re bathing,
Still bathing my boy in tub, find it easier, else he keeps walking ard the bathroom, taking things. But I plan to progress him to showering standing up liao. With the tub, I will dry his hair first then tell him THE END (he has a musical story book which says THE END when closed), and bye to his toys and we'll play again tmr etc. Usually he is quite ok. |

mommies
what toy that your baby boy really enjoys to play now?
i notice that my boy doesnt really play with toys...im not sure if it's because the toy isnt interesting (though it's according to his age) or at his age he actually gets bored easily or just because he is teething. nowadays when he gets bored, he gets irritated easily. I'm so fed up with his behaviour for the past week..has been easily cranky and clingy  |

miss83, my boy also don like to play toys, he only like cars or those with music wher he can press and listen to the music..after a while he will get bored n will run ard the house to search for interesting things such as our alarm clock, our combs, open the cabinets/drawers, throw all the shoes out from the racks and everything which we always forbid him to do!
we found that he actually will look at us 1st before he do any "illegal" things...LOL..we will pretend we nvr see wat he trying to do then he will do it. if he sees us looking at him, he will pretend to touch the things(with his lil hand show us he wans to touch the things)and run away quickly when we shout "NO" at him.. |

miss83, to answer your question, i not only have 1 but i have 2 kitchen sets for Kee wahahahaa and he plays with it, my hubby was like 'HUH" and of course not very approving but i dont care, i think its ok so 1 at my place, 1 at my mums place when he goes over there. He cooks and feeds teddy bear and elmo sitting at the chair and table. Tho he seems to be less interested in it now than before so i might sell it soon. I want to develop his imagination skills. Of course i have other boy toys like train set and 4 ride on cars. His daddy prefers him to have a tool box/workbench instead. But i was wondering how many times can u hammer or screwdriver something? at most a few seconds right? i need toys that he can play longer so he wont keep clinging onto me. Any good suggestions?
oh yeah and i Got it coz he could play w the kitchen set almost 30 mins at Royce Gym hehee then i can sit aside read trashy magazines for half an hour |

ya loh..i'm also looking for something he can play for longer time..it's true they get clingy if they get bored n dunno wat to do
I have something like toolbox with hammer (fisher price), in fact I got 2 kinds of this... and also have thomas the the train (without the railway)..
he's not so keen playing these also..
he only like to mess his toys everywhere.
i also got problem with his 'throwing' habit.
how to stop this? i thought it's normal and will go away..but he's 16m and this hasn't stopped yet! |

Hi mommies..
re: Toys..
I kinda stopped buying them long ago..the last one that Bree had was a present from her uncle for her first yr birthday..
most of her toys were gift.. and we hardly buy them..
haiz.. she does not seem to be keen to play with them long enough.. when her daddy is in town.. all she wants is to go out, she enjoys car ride and out in the malls or eating etc.. else she will ask us to bring her to the playground then the pool downstairs
with our place being so small, i admit i am reluctant as well.. Don't want to end up with a pile of toys and don't know what to do with them after she loose interest in them so.. stopped buying..
now considering to buy small table and chairs for her to sit and doodle.. maybe an easel board for her to scribble on as well..
so far she is only sitting on her playmat and scribble with her crayolas on mahjong paper..
just need to figure out where to put all these extra stuff in my little apartment.. |

Toys
My boy has never shown interest in toys for more than 10mins, he prefer the bottles, containers & whatever he can find around the house than his whole load of toys.
blurjen
The Gino cutter can basically cut all cooked food, I've tried cutting fishball, fishcake, char siew, chicken etc. and just 1-2 times, the size would be just nice for our LO to chew.
Any mummies bought those magnetic writing board for their LO to doodle? I thought that would be a better option compared to crayon/pencil & paper as my boy likes to put them into his mouth. |

btw, whose cl is good to recommend?
my cl whom i like her cooking might not be able to make it. her mum is old n sick so in case she cant she will find her replacement for me. The last time i paid her $1.8k without doing laundry and washing of dishes cos i got maid. This time will be the same. she charges me S$2k regardless of cny period and there is an increase of the fee. so S$2k is reasonable but i worried abt the replacement.
anyone who has good cl, pro in bfing, good cook and taking care of bb? my edd is 20 feb. might be early and will be during cny. how ur cl charge?
my business site sells beansprout pillows and we have good feedbacks fr our customers too. do share around .thx. |

my boy also like going out..he will nag and bring his shoes so that I put them on. he loves going to playground or just walk around at the park near my house.
at home he easily gets bored.
on a rainy day like this..it's difficult to entertain him..
I wish I can find some toys that make him stay and play at home longer...I don't like the idea that he spends more time outside than home..
he's already outside at playgroung for 1 hour in the morning, 1 hour before dinner..sometimes after lunch also ask to go down..if not so hot, I will take him for a walk too.. |

hehee same here miss83, i will pm u the kitchen set pix later. We juz came back from 1.5 hours at Royce, brought him there for daddy to jaga while i pop into the salon next door for a quick haircut
Oh yeah, what i wanted to ask was, what places can we bring them to when it's pouring rain like today? Or what games to play at home?
ok i listed some here which happens almost every day (rainy days, e.g. cannot go playground)
1) Play cooking - 15-20mins
2) Play toy cars - 5-10mins
3) Play music toys FP stage/toolbench - 5-10mins
4) Read books - 5-10mins
5) Eat bowl of snacks - 3 mins
6) Drawing w crayola/paper - 10-15mins
7) Bathing with me (bubbles & shower head) - 15-20mins
8) Hahaa and my favourite, JUST let him watch TV - 1 hour (bad mummy)
really need to bring him out to the playground/poolside in the morning 9.30-10.30am and before dinner 5-6pm to knock off 2 hours.
And on good days, he naps 3.5 hours in the afternoon.
**********************************
Oh yeah ,for Royce gym, u can buy a book of 10 vouchers, each at $10 so its cheaper than paying $12 each time going in.
There's also Rochester the Playroom, which is $8/hour, it's opened by my friend and is also lotsa fun but i must say lesser toys and inconvenient during rainy days coz of the open air carpark. |

Riverie island..
I don't know if you want to consider engaging a confinement lady from TMC ParentCraft centre..
I was keen at that time but did not have an extra room to accommodate, my parents and bro were occupying my other 2 bedrooms and only move out when Bree is 4 mths old.
i should have engaged their confinement lady who comes during the day time.. from what i knew.. these ladies are trained with modern days ways of taking care of newborn babies..
For me.. apart from not being to accommodate due to space constraints.. was because.. i kinda stubborn... cannot accept traditional ways unless there are scientific proven reasons to do the stuff i was told to do.. so.. My mom also gave up on me..
i didn't not go through a full month of confinement.. i only had confinement food for 1 week and stopped.. can't stand it..
just kept on having green papaya and fish soup n my red date tea plus chicken essence.. and that's it..
sleep in aircon room with nursing gown, bathe and wash hair daily..
actually the minute i can get down from my bed in the hospital after my csect its the very next morning cos my c-sect in evening.. i went straight to the bathroom and take a long,hot shower, washed my hair.. do facial scrub (really shiok!) much to my mom's dismay.. hehehe.. |

Missy..
I will try to look at this tonight ok? i briefly saw but have not decide on the design..
Riverie,
to be honest, i kinda disappointed buying stuff from BP.. when they post the pic.. saying pre-order from Japan etc.. then when i receive my items.. its from china.. doesn't matter where it comes from.. cos its common for companies to manufacture in china.. but its the quality that pisses me off.
i end up buying direct from the company and shipped it over. |

end of the day, i believe most of the stuff is from china, indonesia or vietnam... carters, nissen, gap.. though claim to be US brand and Japan brand, the tag shows made in china... same goes for nike too... lol...! and the quality varies... can be good can be bad.. think a matter of luck... |

Missy..
yep.. like i mentioned its normal for companies to do their manufacturing in low cost countries..
What i meant is.. some supplier/ seller stole designs from originals and make their own.. then claim to be original.. this is what pissed me off.
Thanks! still cannot decide which one to get for Bree cos now she will choose what she wants.
i purchased a set of baby Einstein DVD long time ago.. seller claim that its original.. i happily paid for it and yes.. did received the box set.. noticed a few DVDs are spoilt. i went online to their official website to check and then realized that there is no such box set sold.
damn pissed.. i should have reported this case to the police back then. |

Kome..
Actually Bree only started to really walk a few days ago. Prior to that, when she is occupied with something.. carrying a soft toy etc, she does walk around more.. but when we ask her to walk to us.. she will wobble then half way crawl.
best to let our kids walk they they are ready, cos if their bones are not ready for it.. forcing them to walk before they are ready is harmful.
from what i read, we will just bring them to PD for check up if they dun walk by 18 mths. else not a real concern
bbs do differ, some will develop in physical aspects first, some will be intellect but they will get the balance of both eventually |

Oh....coz i seldom heard that bbs after 16 months still do not walk yet. Mmm....so after 18 months is the real concern, now than i know that. But it is really tiring as he always want people to carry him. Thats why was hoping him to walk quickly. |

iphone 4
M1 seems to have more ready stock than SingTel. My telco is SingTel but placed a reservation with M1 cos thought of switching telco. And am just informed by M1 that I can collect my iphone 4 liao. Aiya...but too bad, I can't get it from M1 because I couldn't switch my telco. Found out that I had to pay $450 to terminate my contract with SingTel if I want to change Telco. But then, I still managed to place an iphone 4 order with SingTel, collecting it in the next 2 to 3 weeks time. As for whether to get 16 or 32GB, was advised to get 32GB especially if you want to take videos and the resale value is also higher |

teddybaby.. hope it all works out for the straws! forgot to ask, do you use the bottles and straw often?
i just remembered i had black mossy and specks on unused teats that i store in the same container as freshly washed teats. nowadays i would air the freshly washed teats while in the container and also use/wash/sterilizer all teats every 2 days. The container also tend to have black specks so it is washed every week. Now we no longer have black specks on teats. |

mangogal,
my boy always knock his head, sometimes coz he's too excited running around, other times coz drowsy. hit the corner of his head (resulted in scratch n slight bleeding), back of his head (slight bleed n tear again), etc. was also very concerned and asked pd. pd said unless observed the following happening, else is prob ok as kids self heal very fast n very well.
so look out for the following:
1) loss of appetite, loss of balance, or drowsiness within the next 48 hrs
2)any moments of unconsciousness, no matter how short, must go to a&e immediately
3) any fits, indicating trauma to the brain
4) if the bump is very big (eg. bigger than 50cents) or very red
if none of the above, just monitor, should be fine else if concerned, just bring to the pd to make sure.
haiz, tink our little ones r very mobile and curious now, so will always kena knocks here and there. just must watch out for them more and well monitor lah hee. fan xin k. |

Lenny & Sung, the 1st time she fell on back of head was almost 2 weeks ago, that time no bumps leh...maybe her hair cover the skull so no bumps, i keep massaging her back head, she is ok
Ya I do monitor any unconscious, fever or vommitng symptoms...so far no, keep my finger cross..
Yalor Sung, our little one is so mobile n I had a hardtime catching up wif her wif my big tummy! Think this stage very commin for them to hv bumps n bangs hor? hehe |
