Very easy, if is 1st time eating cereal, let her have only 1 ts cereal and some milk. When giving to bb eat, make sure is not too hot, warm will do. Don't make the cereal too thick, 1st eating, try to make it more watery so that bb can easy swallon it. As the days goes by, slowly increase the amt of cereal and milk add in.
Hey all
My gal have been shaking her head since 5mths. Do any of ur bb also the same?

my mummy taking care of my girl now.
She has managed to 'potty train' her already!!
my gal was a LBW baby only 2.22kg at birth but managed to more than double her weight by 4 months (must be the fatty stuff i am eating!!)
I am using cloth diapers for my girl during the day and disposabe for night. and she is on total breast milk.... all these saves me alot of $$$..
AND, Your Natalie is a real sweetie...

Rochelle
Thank you so much for the wonderful tips on the soaking of teats with a bit of salt. Oh, after we soak with salt, do we rinse with hot water or cold water?

The 1st time bb eat cereal is like this, slowly when bb get used to it den it will not like this. U 1st add 1 ts of cereal and milk powder, slowly if she get used to eat den u incerease if not very waste food. After getting used to eat, maybe u can try adding some fruit or vegetables in to let ur bb expore new taste! As for my gal, she like fruit the most and dislike vegetables! For more inform, go to this web: http://www.gerber.com/fpidea?ideaid=idea1
When my gal born, only 2.8kg, by the time she is 2mths,5.4kg. As long as ur bb is growing at a healthy range, u need not worry. Every bb is diff, maybe urs is those later will catch up the weigh gain. Don't worry too much if the PD didn't say anything wrong.
TOYS
http://www.leapfrog.com/do/findproduct?ageGroupKey=infant&key=babypal
At my mother house, a bb gym and some rattles, a playmat. At my own house, soft toys and the leapfrog thing lo. Coz our bb very diff to buy toys as I'm afraid if the parts came off and they just swallon it or hit themselves. My gal do enjoy playing toys so if possible, will bring her go toys shop and let her touch and play. I dun like my gal to hv hard toys. For more toys inform, go to this web: http://www.child-toys-guide.com/baby-toys.shtml

Rochelle... yesterday i went to do so with your method
then my mil ask me why i do so. in fact i dunno how to answer her. i am using doctor brown bottle, thus they have cleaning brush for us to clean the straw and to clean the teat. so i am not sure if that is fine without salt.

hi mummies, long time no chat. hope everyone is well!
how come we are seeing less pics of the little ones nowadays ? Hope to see more pics here.
here are shermyn's pics taken recently
welcome <font color="ff0000">lachesiz</font> !
<font color="0000ff">YYP</font> & <font color="119911">duffy</font>,
Shermyn was 6.2kg when she was 4 mths old. our gals are about the same built right ? I have learnt not to worry too much about them not gaining enough weight as long as PD says ok and they are growing well.
GRABBING TOES
Shermyn just learnt that she can grab her toes. Hmm...very soon, she will start putting them in her mouth !

JinJin: "Hello Nat, Shermyn & Declan! I was at the Botanic Garden this morning. There were lotsa plants and people practising wushu. Wanna come with me one day?"
TBL,
We bought a Fisher Price swing with flashing lights and music from Toys R Us for JinJin. You can also use the swing when feeding the baby or to rock the baby to sleep.
As for other toys, I've been using hand-me-downs from relatives and those which were given to us when JinJin turned 1 mth old.
Seagal,
JinJin was 6.09 kg at 4 mths. Her appetite seems ok (170ml of EBM 5 times a day). I was giving her 2 tsp of Heinz rice cereal a day, but she refuses to eat it now. It must taste pretty bland and yucky. She'll salivate and make chewing motions when she sees the family eating. I couldn't resist giving her a piece of apple to suck on the other day. She loved it!

HAPPY MUMMY DAY to ALL!!!
Must get something nice to reward yourself (other than all your obviously CUTE n HAPPY babies).
some question to ask all mummies,
question 1:
Like to know what kind of body care pdts (eg: for bath, lotion) u mummies are using for your bb.
i have been using the mustela range for my girl since day 1 but would like to hear other reviews.
question 2:
read in another thread, not advisable/ cannot cut the teat hole to enlarge it, best buy new one with bigger hole. Why cannot cut??
question 3:
those mummies whose bb are on Total breastmilk, do you feed your bb water? coz mine loves to drink water but i read somewhere that not advisable for bb who are on TBM. (as blood will thin etc)
thanks

1. Since day 1 my gal have been using baby johnson range for shampoo and body wash. I do not use any other brand or lotion. Even the powder I'm using johnson range.
2. I remember that cuting teat is not advisable because, the broken or tear part may let the baby swallon it and this can cause death. So the best is to buy a new one.
3. I'm total BF my gal. My gal dun like to drink plain water, she like to drink baby juice. Actually or BM already contain lots of water so they dun really need to drink water. I also read from somewhere say infant no need to drink too much water as it got something to do with the blood.

mngo,
err... not fair lei!! why chloe first on the list? nat saw declan first! kekeke.....
duffy,
botak chloe very cute!!!! long time didnt see her photo now she looks grown up a lot.
hey, post more photos lei! btw how is chloe's condition now?
lachesiz,
think duffy is good at those photo effect. I still remember chloe has one 'jia you' photo, very cute.
as for yr Qs:
1. i'm using johnson range too. but i dun use powder just lotion for nat. why johnson? coz all my niece & nephews using, so i follow lor.
mustela range? very ex rite?
2. dunno why cannot cut. but i dun think i'll cut the teats too. will change to large hole's teat if needed. moreover teats shld be replaced every 6~8wks.
3. i feed nat plain water, she is on FM. drink water will make the blood thiner? dun think it's logical. may be u can ask PD during yr nxt visit.
Yu,
yr ger ger very cute, looks so cheerful.
