Michelle/Kiki
Renzo has this problem also, although he sleeps at 10pm and during midnight I need to feed him FM around 340am, and next feed usually is 8am+, but from 10pm to 340am, last time he can sleep through, now he has this bad habit that he will wake up 2-4 times, and everytime i just give him a bit of water he will sleep back, but last night i read your post and tried not to give him water but just rock him, he cries..

I think he got this habit because during his daytime nap, when he wakes up my maid will give him water and let him sleep back again, so now i asked my maid not to give him water, just let him wake up, daytime is still easy but to change his habit at night is really tough cuz once he cries everyone will wake up.. haiz..

hopefully we can change him in a week time. I am alright that he wakes up at 340am to drink milk, but before and after that if he keeps waking up for water, it is almost like he is waking up every 2 hours lor, like back to first 2 months routine sia, so jialat.. headache leh..

Diapers from Chinese Medical Hall
I've been keeping track of drypers, huggies, petpet, and mammypoko prices at NTUC discount price and Giant. So far, all the offers cant beat the Chinese Medical Hall price. They carry different packaging size especially mammypoko, so must always compare by per piece price. I'll check with them if they open branches at other locations especially on the west.

[dolcevita]

Pegsfur,

Weekday difficult for me. By the time Im home, its already late as I will drop by my mum's place every night to deliver ebm to Nat, unless im taking leave.
Weekend is always better for me.

Let us know which time slot is ok for you, we can try to have something to cater to your timing, maybe evening ?

See if anyone else respond.....

 

[mashybrainz]

Re: bb detergent

I'll be using bb detergent for washing bottles as long as needed and will sterilise until 1 yr old. Clothes will also use bb detergent till 1 yr old unless my gal's skin is sensitive to adult's detergent. Will still wash separately.

 

[piggytoh]

irene> wow. 1230-8am. so good. mine is 1230am to 630am or 7am nia. 630am is i force him one. cos when i go wk on wkdays i need latch him at 630 before i send him out n i go to wk. but wkends we can sleep till 7 or 8 depending on wat time my boy wakes up. ya. to me +-15mins is ok too

but i stil cant get my boy on a 4hrly schedule. actually i nv try. i give him 3hrly la. cos he vomit sometimes after feed liaos. so dun force him to drink too much. i started him on this routine when he was 3mths old. took him 3 days to adjust

jul> seriously i nv soap them. i juz rinse with water n sterilise. after sterilise, cap them and put in fridge n take out use as n when i need

felicia> oo. day time if he cry i dun let him drink water. i will rather feed him milk. but nite time cry i only give him pacifier now. den ignore him n he'll fall back asleep

jacqueline> mine stares at anyone eating. pple might think i ill-treat him. nv give him food wor

bb> i ever bought mamypoko 44pieces M size at sheng shiong at 12.90 per pack. but long time no haf this promo liaos. now pampers at giant, 88pieces m size for 29.90. those interested might wanna give it a good. de cheapest i got before is 27.90 at sheng shiong oso =p

claire> tat's cheap, esp with de carefour rebate. maybe nxt time i shuld go carefour buy diapers instead, cos of de 5% rebate =p

babiesmeme> i use fab antibacterial detergent for my boy's clothes before he even hit 1mth. more impt is to try on one clothes, den let him wear n c if he got sensitive skin, if no prob, den can go ahead. have all along washed his clothes seperately. but now i wash tgt with ours, seems ok too. cos now he go my parent's hm, seldom he got things to wash at hm. if wanna collect one load full of his clothes, can wait for wks. by than got fungi grow on his clothes liaos. cos sometimes clothes stained by milk n we dunno ma

pegsfur> other than still using steriliser, my baby is like us now =p

[pegsfur]

jul
Ya! Can even arrange for swimming at the sengkang swimming pool one of these days as well

dolce
Weekdays is preferable to me ... weekends have to see how. Sat is definitely out, while sundays will depends cos like jul, we also go shopping/gaigai with Ovann

 

[cloudme]

regg,
what happen?
i went to my girl thread and saw ur msg deleted by adminstrator...

 

[bear]

Michelle, so actually your boy can last till 8am too but because you need to latch him before go work so he just drink lor. If not you let your mum feed him at 8am.

My girl don't sleep till 8am. She will wake up near 7am or even 7plus but I still don't give her milk till near 8am.

Babiesmeme, I only sterilise my girl's bottles and my pumps. I use normal washing detergent to wash the bottles and wash her clothes.
