chihiro,
nice to 'see' u here.
Jen,
me thinking to start solid when nat is 5.5mth, after her 5th mth jab. PD advise to delay to 5~6mth as WHO guideline is 6mth on solid. she said not all bbs are ready on 4th mth, if they are not ready, the indigest food will remain in their body which may affect their organ's development. btw for those who have tried and yr bb is happy wif solid tat shld be fine.
Yu,
u can try to reduce the photo's size and post again.

duffy,
now that Chloe can flip, safer to do without blanket and set the aircon temperature higher. my boy loves to pull his blanket into his mouth when he is in the pram so Chloe might do that too when she learns to grab and put things in her mouth.
instead of a single bed, better to put a mattress on the floor so that if she flip out of the mattress onto the floor, it would not be so painful. my boy rotates until sometimes his head is almost going to be touching the floor.
my boy likes to sleep on his tummy at night. in the afternoon he sometimes flip halfway so that can air his front and back.
Yu,
my nephew now has allergic reaction to milk after being breastfeed for 10mths. he can only take hypo-allergic milk now and he hates it. will cry when he sees the milk bottle. maybe u can try mixing abit of formula milk with solids when you start her on solids so that she does not become lactose intolerant, else very poor thing when growing up becos alot of nice food cannot eat.
TBL,
my MIL also say the milk from the two batches look different. the later batch is whiter. my boy has soft stools but no more diarrhea since the switch back to the old batch. maybe my boy like me, have to take oily milk. my boy likes the leapfrog now eventhough he will not play long with it. you might want to see if Natalie likes the leapfrog when you bring her to the kids department.

The myth: Baby walkers help babies to learn how to walk.
The truth: Prolonged use of baby walkers can slow down baby's ability to walk

teething,
shermyn has been drooling these days so i suspect she will be teething soon.
walker,
i think it's advisable not to put baby in walker as they will tend to tip toe next time affecting their ability to walk properly.
<font color="ff0000">rochelle</font>,
i like the sun chime too, haha.
regarding the white spots in your boi's month, could it be oral thrush ?
weaning off,
i developed nipple ecezma recently and was advised to stopped bf cos continuous pumping will not heal the eczema. i had endured the pain for at least 2 weeks before consulting the doctor and realising it was eczema.
had to reduce my pumping from 4 times a day to 2 times only. ss also dropping liao.
i was very sad initially when told to stop bfg and find it hard to let go. however, i am starting to enjoy it now cos i have so much newfound "freedom"! =d
i have forgotten the luxury of going out for lunch with colleagues and shopping around, buying things for shermyn during lunchtime. i also don't have to worry about not pumping milk in time if i work late, etc.
sometimes i will still feel a bit guilty for giving up so easily cos i had intended to continue bf for 6 months but seems like my plans might have to change.

seagal,
by white spots I mean I see the top of two white teeth on my boy's gum on the lower jaw where the first teeth are suppose to be. its not oral thrush becos saw the pictures for oral thrush.
its better to have quality time with shermyn than to be stressed out pumping. I had low ss so have to partial bf. recently I borrowed a book from the library about "bottlefeeding without guilt, for loving parents" and it presents a more balanced picture of everything while encouraging breastfeeding. my hubby likes to feed my boy EBM or FM whenever he is not too tired. so your hubby might enjoy feeding shermyn too.
a hubby actually said that he felt so left out becos he cannot feed his baby since his wife is breastfeeding direct and he had wanted so much to feed his baby but did not want to tell his wife since his wife is keen on breastfeeding direct.
I actually thought it may be hormone deficiency that is why I have so low ss, and the book said that 5% of women physically dont have enough milk regardless how they try. my hubby is against hormone therapy for breastfeeding and fenugreek did not work for me.

flip
=======
natalie oso starts to flip 360 degree these days. if put her on end of the bed she can keep flipping to the other end. so those of u who bb can flip u must really be xtra careful not to put yr bb on bed alone. coz u wont know when they will keep rolling. nat 1st did that when I put her on bed to brush my teeth, saw her flip to the other side when i step out fm bathroom, luckily she is on queen size bed!!
Jen,
sometimes nat oso wake up ~4/ 5am and making noises. we will just wake up to make sure she is fine but will leave her on her cot. She will sleep after a while. Think u no need to carry her to yr bed lei..
i will not let nat sit in walker due to same reason as mentioned by Rochelle.
rochelle,
my PD tole me she is 'quite reluctant' to say bb's diarrhea is due to teething as this 'myth' still not proven yet.
hmm.. will check out leapfrog, see nat likes it or not. really run out of idea, dunno wat toy to buy for her.
Yu,
did yr gal shows any discomfort due to teething? if not dun worry coz some may not experience any pain yet. I did check with PD as Nat teething during 3mth, no need to apply teething gel if ur bb seems ok.

rochelle,
wow, was it difficult capturing the shot of your boy's front teeth ? i can only take a peek into my gal's mouth when she crys. otherwise, her tongue always stick out so cannot see anything inside. =)
my hubby enjoys the bonding experience while feeding shermyn too. he does most of the night feeds.
i tried fenugreek too but don't think it is of help. i have learnt to take things in my stride now.

Re: flipping
I think my Jean is pure lazy... put her on her tummy, she just look up and try to "crawl" head-leg style... refuse to flip... so we resort to "trapping" her arm below her and *wah la* she can "flip" on her back... hehe... but still no 360 deg lah...
tbl, nat very sart leh... hehe...
