Re: Hbs and bday parties
Actually, it seems to be the opposite for my hb. Maybe becos he is away most of the time, he really wants to do the bday things for D. Hence, I am pressured by him to start early even though it's gg to be a family thing.

[tinybubu]

Thanks for the well wishes girls!The in room PC at TMC is quite funny so i cant add Sophie's date.Can somebody please help me?

Sophie (tinybubu) - 23rd May

My nipples are sore...And milk isnt in yet.Here we go again!!!!!!

 

[~cassey]

<font color="cc3399"> SuperB, WHOA!!! Thanks for arranging the bday list ah! So on the ball eh?

Shelisa, ahnet is hello kitty?! I must have missed something along the way. OH!!! H.K.! I'm a brilliant detective!

fatmom, don't feel left out... while we're celebrating our kids' first year... you're celebrated Amelia's first year AND a new life all over again! How advanced is that?! Anyway, I'm not doing a bash either. Just 2 or 3 small sessions of dinner with the people that matter in Kyle's life.

So here's to us no-party mums!

Bub's Diet:
After a few days of food boycotting, I've just moved Kyle on to rice yesterday, using that with his meat jars and fresh veges instead of cereal. Goodness, the hungry monster gobbled down 1.5 baby bowls-ful tonight and still wanted more. I stopped and after a while, offered him some fruit instead. Won't his stomach explode?!?!

... On that note, I don't really get why some parents of toddlers (like 2-3y/o) still bring a flask of congee out for the kid.
Does anyone know if there's some plausible explanation or benefit to this??

Miscellaneous stuff

Noticed Twinkystar spams all the threads on a regular basis every few weeks/months. *not impressed*

Whoa! So many 8th June babies!</font>

 

[tubbymummy]

<font color="ff0000"><font size="+2">CONGRATS TINYBUBU!</font></font> Big kiss for baby Oli!

PG: Glad that mummies here get to ride on Apr mums' BP!

AZ Trading: I used to buy stuff from them. They're nice, prices are reasonable, and yes, willing to give small discount when buy more.

bbmarilyn/ahnet, does AZ sell candles? I need the no. 1 candle... Prefer solid colour, but those that I came across are all multi-coloured or polka dotted.

ahnet, tofu can add to anything... Creamer is right, I mix with avocado sometimes. Tonight, I mixed it with yogurt and apple/raspberry puree.

adrina_gina, great website right?

I've been referring to it too... I tried the chicken apricot korma, tastes yummy!

Samsam, THREE HOUR NAP??!! Super envious!

sweethalo/Samsam, my hb doesn't really care what I do for the birthday as well, so I'm just gonna take the opportunity to do as I please haha! I let him choose the flavour of 1 tier of cake though. Hehe.

createjoy, haha S can drink from Magmag straw, but since mummies here talked about Yakult straw, out of curiousity today, as I was drinking my grape Vitagen, I let S try. She sucked out some of the grape liquid, face had a funny expression for a short while as she adjusted to the taste, then started shouting for the bottle as I put it away wahahaha! Quickly distracted her with something else. She must have loved it cos it tastes so sweet!

cassey, S was eating my jap rice today hehehe... just a couple of mouthfuls, she had already had lunch then. Oh and bigger kids eating congee, remember I was talking about a kid at Botanic Gardens eating congee, which mum brought out in a flask, as the parents ate pizza and pasta? Yes the congee was very thick, not the runny nonsense, but STILL. It's the standard tri-colour thing people cook for babies, green/orange/yellow bits mixed into porridge. Oh, and speaking of weird diets, I have a friend who fed her kid rice+fish+veg every meal, everyday. While it sounds nutritious, I can't imagine it being nutritionally balanced over a long term... Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

[bbaugustine]

wah the forum is coming alive with this birthday thing.Thanks bbjun for adding Aug's birthdate.

June Bday Bash
Time: open for sugg
Venue: open for sugg

1. ecmom + baby Cayden (first week of July)
2. serene22 + hb + Sofie
3. superbee + hb + danelle (4th July)
4. createjoy + hb + Jayden (1st weekend of jul)
5. bbaug+hb+Augustine (1st week of Jul)

I am also planning Aug's party mostly by myself but I think Daddy is also excited abt it since his little one is turning 1. Its just that he has no time and men are just not into party planning i think. I consulted him abt the venue and cake flavour though. Prob going to order from Pine Garden the lychee martini cake since everyone is raving about that. Looks like Aug is just going to look at his cute cake and not have the chance to eat it=P Anyway i figured cakes will be too sweet for him hee.

Im going to try to source for party supplies soon. Been procrastinating. I checked out SKP. They sell the balloons rather cheaply but i am still thinking helium or not. We will see how it goes. Going to attend a friend's son 1st birthday party with sesame street theme this sat and I will see if i can get any ideas.

I share creamer/createjoy's gripe abt hubby being able to sleep in on weekends and mummy having to wake up so early 7 days a week to take care of baby. I feel so sleep deprived. Aug is still doing his nite feeds. Im determined to try to stop his night wakings when he reaches 1 year old. Gotta think of some way.

[shelisa]

Bluedream, ya, so now when im feeding Sermaine cheese, I will tear into small pcs and press in onto the puff and she ate it. I think she love food that is crispy? I notice when I offer the ‘ya kun’ toast bread she just simply love it!!

Reg: Porridge
Sermaine porridge all along very colourful. Usually is fish + pork OR fish + tofu with at least 2-43veg. Given her cherry tomato, purple cabbage, cabbage, broccoli, carrot, pumpkin, all sort of spinach, shitake mushroom and even whole egg.

[doveyc]

this thread is so "alive" now... loving it!

shelisa, i'm thinking of introducing cheese as well... what kind of cheese do u buy? from where? is it specially for babies? tks!

 

[createjoy]

Hi mummies, my sis is looking for a dentist for her 3 yr old girl who is super shy with strangers and wish to use baby bonus to pay. any recommendation?

Cheese
is there such cheese as reduced salt cheese?

Cleaning toy
That time maryg &amp; someone mentioned about using vinegar to clean toys. i looked everyw only saw artificial vinegar, where to find distill vinegar &amp; is there difference??

 

[createjoy]

tubbymummy,
wow!! she love yakult? haha indeed kids are born as good taster haha. how to train them to drink frm straw? just try everyday till they miraclely start to suck?

 

[katelee]

createjoy, that's what happened to Kate - she Miraculously sucks from the Mag Mag straw the 2nd time i gave it to her. she sucked so hard that she kinda choked when too much water came up the straw.
The first time I gave it to her, she bit on the straw and didn't know what to do with it. The 2nd time i gave it to her again was a week later.

 

[ahnetsan]

tubbymummy,
if im nt mistaken, the candles selling at AZ was those white coloured with a bit of pinkish on it. i forgot the price though. heehee

yeah i also dun understand y parents wif 2/3yr old kids stil bring flask of porridge out. i will give J adult food when he reaches 1yr old. nw thinking wat kinda yummy food to give him on his 1st bday. haha. i know most mummies here have been giving bits and pieces of watever food they are eating to their bb, but i havent done so.

createjoy,
ytd tried egg custard on J. he simply hates it. tried 2 mouthfuls nia, den refused le. J all along doesnt like jar foods. haiz. so i threw the whole thing away.
i tasted it myself, it tasted weird and nt nice leh. no wonder J stared at me wif dat disgusted look on his face.

 

[hl_lee]

Hi mummies,

I've a few tins of Nan2 Pro 400g to sell.
Expiry date: 02 Oct 2010
Px: 1 for $8, 2 for $15

Self-collect at Toh Yi Area or Science Park I

Interested parties, please email me at [email protected]. Thanks.

 

[dogggies]

Tubbymummy,
I saw the candle you are looking for in a party supply shop at centrepoint 4th or 5th level. But i cant remember the name or price. It is just opposite the chinese restaurant. So should not be a problem to locate them

 

[createjoy]

ahnetsan
Jayden would luv to finish up for him! actually only wn 1st intro jar food the apple too sour he dont like the rest he all gobble up. n he always cry after drink 210ml milk before slp.. is that a sign that i shd inc? but i read their stomach 5 times smaller than us so i cant imagine i drink 3 cup water at 1 go either shd he drk 240ml (a cup) at one go right??

 

[ahnetsan]

createjoy,
haha ur analysis quite true ba i thk.

nt sure leh, mayb jayden cry cos of smth else? and nt cos he's still hungry? or maybe he doesnt wan to slp yet lah, so he cry after milk? hahaha really dunno y leh. nt sure whether u shd increase his milk intake too, cos jarius doesnt even drink more than 90ml milk at one time all these months.

maybe jayden's stomach is nt shallow? for jarius', his stomach is shallow, so he cant take so much milk at one time....

or u try lor, increase to 240ml, den see hw jayden react?

bbAug, yea now baby is more active liao. Genieve abt weeks back didnt want to sleep abt 8plus which is her usual sleeping time. When put her to bed she wana play and roll till about 9plus when she is really tired. Before dat normally she can pat to sleep pretty fast after water/milk. But this last for awhile and now seems to be back to normal again cos i realise part of the reason sometimes she dun go back sleep after wake up is due to the warm weather until i on the aircon. I find babies is jus unpredicatble and changes their pattern as and when one. Mayb u can try to get him to sleep slightly later so at least Aug wont wake in the middle of the nite and disrupt yr beauty sleep?

Ecmom, oh u have bad experience with PG cakes ah.. I have tried my sil lychee martini cakes for her son's 1st year, it was good as good as the slice cake. Mayb its the icing type and your customise drawing..

Shelisa, u not ordering strawberry shortcake for strawberry sermaine meh.. hehe..

Re: Eggs
Do we need to give hard boiled type? Can we just take the egg yolk and cook together with the porridge till cooked huh?

Re: Napping timme
Jus to check yr baby nap how many times during the day time? My girl sleep 2 to 3 times and sleep about 30mins to 1hr. Is it enough huh?

 

[shelisa]

Re: Cheese
I brought at Cold Storage at Taka, the brand is perfect italiano, it is a bar size i taste it myself, not so salty. Tubbymummy cut into chuke for Skyla to hold it herself but i haven try that before

Creamer, i did that before, filter the raw egg yolk and cook into the pooridge. I have feed Sermaine egg white too

 

[creamer]

Shelisa, thought egg white is allergenic only give after 1 year? not huh?

 

[bluedream]

Cassy,
I wish to move on to rice.. but due to ashton constant constipation, I think it is best that he eat food that is smoother for his stomach.

Although Ashton can take quite well when I let him try my rice.

 

[createjoy]

creamer,
ya i scare he allergy so i only give egg yolk n my tot is hardboiled sure clear cut no egg white compare to filter it. anyway also cooked wn throw inside porridge. u can do it your way. haha i'm qt a "play safe" mummy so i usually give whatever doc or book recommend after another mth. actually alot food is whether we comfortable to give them. so many gave bb their own food, egg, cheese &amp; whatever fried food before the recommended age.

 

[creamer]

createjoy, cos i find put inside the porridge also consider cooked yolk and it gives a nice yellow colour to the porridge, looks more tempting. haha...

Re: 1st birthday
Yeah, cassey... Am really not into giving a party for the little one. Just want him to have a happy day with his family.

Re:Food
Rationale for most parents still bringing out food jar for 2-3 yr old kids - some parents wanted to stick by the no salt, no sugar diet for as long as possible. Had an ex-colleague whose daughter was on such a diet till 4yrs old. Thereafter, she still watches her diet closely, with almost zero non-healthy snacks (like sweets). Another fren of mine had no choice becos her boy only had his first tooth at 13 months and couldn't find suitable food at times outside. Now that he has more teeth, she sometimes doesn't bring porridge out, if she knows that there are suitable food for him to eat.

I am not a super strict mom even though hb n I have allergies. On and off we let D tastes (really just taste a few mouths) a bit of our food, if suitable, like KFC mashed potatoes, v sweet soft fruits such as mango, rice, pork ribs soup, etc. Well, ultimately, they are to grow up n eat like us so as long as he is eating a variety, healthily, I m not so fussy about that.

Re:Cheese
Have not given D cheese on its own. Usually added to his pasta which is cheddar cheese.

bbaug, u r welcome. But I kinda messed up the table not realising it was in chronological order. Thks for sorting that out, AMKgal.

 

[sweethalo]

Superbee-
whahah yeah will update when i finally open ceremony of the Mag Mag wakkaka.

Ahnet-
I also bought yakult lo... but erh hvn't had time to decide if i wld use the straw or just go ahead with the Mag Mag first.

Fatmom -
regarding Oatmeal, I think it has a stronger taste... Noah also doesn't quite like HT oatmeal cereal taste but I thot I wld try HB Oatmeal? whahaha see how la, still yet to collect the HB fr Reen

yeah, maybe just have a birthday cake and small dinner party with your family for Amelia?

Cassey - whahaha, shall we send this Twinkystar a PM? kekekek like what we previously did with the spammer last year? oops!

TubbyM - I'm eager to progress Noah on to more interesting food but Noah has his own timing... so got to take his cue... Found that he actually loves sourish stuff -apple's his all time fav! Loves Oranges and Mandarins too.

Tofu sounds good to try. He has tasted bits of it (from my Boon Tiong Kee lunch, oops!) haha...

Wondering, how do you store the unused portion of tofu?

Shelisa -
wahhaaha nvr thought of stuffing cheese into puffs! Sounds interesting and enticing! Problem is that Noah tosses his puffs all over the floor and seldom into his own mouth! ahhaha...

Createjoy - RE: Vinegar
Erh... I have my reservation about cleaning toys with vinegar leh... wouldnt the plastic parts all get spoiled? Usually vinegar "eats" into plastic that's why we don't find them being sold in plastic bottles, only in GLASS btls.

Kate Lee -
Did Kate use a spout first before you offered her the straw top?

 

[sweethalo]

beemom -
oo sorry I must have mixed up when reading earlier.. hehe

Re: Cheese
Bought the Laughing Cow brand and gave Noah abit to taste but he didn't seem to take to it. On the other hand, when I have normal cheese slices in my bread and break bits off for him, he likes...

Hahha told hb abt it, he said maybe cos not sour? whahah give sour cheese to him mayb he will like!!

Ahnet -
I tired Heinz Egg Custard before for Noah, he hated it too... even the Vanilla Custard he hated! I dono why..hahaha... that's why so far I have not bought anymore Heinz jars for him...

Quiet Friday night huh? hahha just like old times?

 

[tubbymummy]

createjoy, I had bad luck with sippy cups, so I just tried my luck with straw top MagMag, and she miraculously just knew how to to suck. Chew on straw a bit, then somehow sucked. Like katelee, she also choked here and there the first 2-3 days, and sometimes too much water, it'll just drip out of her mouth all over her clothes, but now seems ok le. So maybe just keep offering till one day figure out? Keke... For cheese, I just read the nutritional info panel and buy the ones that have less sodium. Those that don't list sodium, I didn't buy, just in case... Oh and for milk, S also cries after 210ml, so I have been slowly increasing till now 250ml, don't dare to go up further, cos I also can't imagine how her stomach can be big enough to contain so much. She seems happy with 250ml.

Jackie, thanks! I go check out that party shop next week

bbjun, agree that no salt/sugar till they are as old as possible is the best way to go, and may be the motivation for parents bringing food out for their kids. But I don't think at that age, their food should still be gloopy...

That was the part that scared me haha.

sweethalo, maybe the cheese on its own he finds it too salty, whereas with bread it's ok? Just a theory hehe...

There are stupid cats downstairs fighting super fiercely, with all the accompanying screams. ARRGGHH. If they wake my kid up, I'm gonna throw water bombs downstairs! Super irritating, now they have progressed to wailing in heat!!

I'm a cat lover, but I can truly understand why some people detest stray cats. Argh.

 

[sweethalo]

whahaha! Hv you prepared the water bombs?? kkkekeke

Cheese- No leh i just peel off the cheese and offer him without bread hahaha

 

[shelisa]

Creamer, ya, PD advise after 1yr old but hubby n I no allergic thus we give her some. It smell so nice with the egg yolk in the porridge

Sweethalo, bcos at 1st I offer her chesse we like but not long she found it soft stuff she tend to push it out thus I paste the cheese + puff and she happily eating it

 

[ahnetsan]

sweethalo,
haha seems like both noah and jarius share the same taste abt heinz jars. does noah react the same to other brands of jar? jarius doesnt like any brand of jar foods so far.

re: tofu
btw, my mil told me dat tofu cannot be eaten together with spinach. cos "you du" (got poison). dunno why lah, maybe chemicals reaction or dunno wat. dat day wanted to put tofu and spinach in j's porridge, but mil say cannot, say some veges cannot mix with other things. so ended up i added tofu wif pumpkin.

sweethalo,
i jus cut a portion of tofu den put the rest in a container and back into the fridge. when i next take it out, i will pour out the water in the container first den cut another portion out again. dunno y somehow got water one leh.

so envious to read babies drinking 210 to 250ml of milk. wonder when J do dat...

jus nw i tried btl on him, cry and cry and cry. keep wanting me to latch on, keep crying and crying until he fell aslp. so poor thing....

just now i tried bellamy's marcoroni... doesnt like it leh.

 

[sweethalo]

Shelisa-
whahah so Shermaine don't like soft mushy stuff...

Today I offered Noah the Laughing Cow cheese again and he gave me a yucky look (almost wana choke kind of face) but I just continued and he was ok with it after awhile.

Ahnet-
So far have not tried any other jar food but he likes Organix puree..only thing is Organix only seems to have fruit purees... no veggie or meat flavours like Heinz has.
