(2013) ivf/icsi mummies Support group


Koirc, enfa has very high dha. So that explains the popularity nand the price.

Znatasha, my baby oni wears mitten at night cos hands cold in aircon room.
 
My girl born at kkh. They give enfalac in hospital. At home I give bm n similac. My girl is okie with it. For similac I bought at ntuc cost ard $51.50. Made in Singapore. My girl finished up 900g in abt 10days. Now have to source where got cheaper rate but no in Malaysia. Heehee

Took off my girl mitten when bathing her. Silly girl pull her hairs n forgot to release cry like mad.
 
Mofmm: the diaper cream wouldn't go to waste u keep it first. Use it when their rashes get better or when they are old.

Finally 12 more days to end my confinement. Sweat sweat. Looking forward to go bai bai n dr tan review hahaha
 
Znatasha, what kind of job are you looking for? For mittens, I only let bb wear at night too. Now bb is learning to grab things so let him explore...

Reikibaby, I see! I didn't know enfa has high dha.
 
Dian tang, thanks but I couldn't wait and already sent my DH to Mothercare to buy one today. My boy getting fussy at night so I want to try this out and see if he will sleep better tonight.

Mummies, back to the topic of baby insurance, what would be the key coverage that baby needs besides hospitalization? So far, which insurance company and plan is better?
 
Znatasha - same. Only wore mitterns first mth. Bsby needs to feel n stretch. Also if u wear mittens, got to change often cos baby licks it n rub face w it - face gets rashes.
 
Koirc: me too. Especially when baby cry at nite. Then dh don't understand lol. Try to spend some time to talk to him. He make it like he need to work n I at home with baby is more relax than him. Arrgh.
 
Koirc I felt stressed up too initially but had gotten used to it now. All babies cry, so have to learn to chill a bit.
 
Babysmurf, I also feel more stress at night. Don't know why.

Sade, my baby will scream and sometimes till voice becomes a bit hoarse. Then I see his face so red and tears flowing down, I get very scared.

Koirc: yup me too! Esp when I dunno whAt he want .
Wow.. Can de stress after buying things , rite!

Lil Ponyo : so how is the dream pillow ? Good?
 
Luckily the Fisher-Price products that I wanted to buy at the fair were sold out. Managed to get them on Amazon at cheaper price! Like $10-20 cheaper than the discounted price at the fair.
 
Hi Koirc, now I'm "aiming" to take up job that doesn't kill too many brain cells or have to do work at home till wee hours... haha asking for too much...

My bb will cry out loud when hungry or super sleepy. I also find my bb doesn't like to be carried in lie-down position she likes the upright, chin on shoulder position, so she can stretch and kicks her legs.
 
Koirc my bb also cry till face red and v loud n fierce, as if I had beat her v hard. She will cry v hard when she is hungry.
 
Good to know all babies are the same and I'm not alone!

Btw ladies, I find this quite interesting: http://sg.******************/cribs-or-floor-beds/?repeat=w3tc
 
Mummies, me too! I feel stress at night because baby gets fussy. He is so tired yet can't sleep. Will scream and cry until his face is red. Really breaks my heart. And as soon as I carry and sooth him he settles down but when I think he is almost asleep and put him down, he starts crying again. CL says all babies are like that. I wonder if its true.

Then during the day, he is like sleeping beauty. Sleeps so easily and for some long! My friend joked that I need to move to the US so that baby's body clock can switch from day to night!

Dian Tang, So far, baby still fussy with pillow ;(
 
My bb too, cries till face is red and sometimes seems that he stops breathing for a few seconds! Most times I end up getting stressed, but try to tell myself to remain calm, cos I think bb can feel our emotions. Worse thing is bb cried even more when I tried to carry him - will stop when mil or maid carries him. Made me feel so rejected! So now I insist on soothing him myself and not let maid/mil come to his "rescue" and scoop him away from me.

Lil, I think it will take bb some time to get his internal clock adjusted to sleeping at night. I find that if bb is held for abt 20mins and falls into deep sleep, he can be put down without crying. Do you swaddle baby? That really helps mine to sleep at night.
 
Koirc: for the amazon purchase, only can choose those with free super saving rates?

Lil Ponyo: ha ha prob u have to try other method -_-'
 
Hi mummies, i bought aia hospitalisation insurance for my gal, there no waiting period as compare to the rest, mostly is 24 months.
 
lil ur cl might be right cos my bb was like that too. but it does get better.
babies will wake up and look ar n play and will be tired again, so try not to over stimulate bb at night n slowly bb will know that it is night. bb will feel tired after being awake for 1hr plus, so let bb have a nap during day time. n try to let bb nap before bb get cranky. mostly bb will be tired n sleep aft being awake for 2hrs.

koirc that article was interesting, no wonder my friend told me that to let bb sleep on the floor mattress.
 
Lil, my CL told me the same thing but I didn't believe. Kept thinking it's only my bb cos my friend's bb is so easy to handle. My bb is like yours - will cry when you thought he's asleep and wanna put him down. He's 3 months old and still the same!

Dian tang, as long as it's those fulfilled by Amazon.

Luv, I bought FP and LaMaze toys and A&A crib sheets.
 
I also very stressed whenever my boys are crying! in fact, they are crying alot! they only eat sleep cry. they dont have awake time whereby lie there and be quiet.. and the mummy can take nice pic of them. all our pics are they sleeping. Is this normal? I worry they are not full from latching me and thus, they are always hungry and crying!

Mofmm, I feel you totally too regarding the milk powder! My side is using up very fast too!!

Whiteclover and koirc, my mil also did the same thing.. Even thou she did not specifically say I did not have enough milk for them, she always "blame" me whenever the boys are crying after feed and don't want to sleep. Alot of time because of her I feel like giving up breastfeeding coz it really make me wonder did I really have enough milk for them.
 
Saralyn, how old are your bbs now? It's normal to take pix of them sleeping. Before bb was born, I had wanted to take his pix every day for 100 days to make a collage. Then as I take it every day, all photos look the same because he was sleeping and almost in the same position every time. And in similar outfits too! Cos we only dress him with the clothes bought from the Bugis wholesale shop when at home. Haha... I gave up and decided to take his pix every two weeks instead. Now bb is 3 months old and he smiles a lot more so the pix are more varied now.
 
Koirc, my boys are coming to 6 weeks already.. Recently one of them is super cranky.. Always cry and want to be carry. Both of them are really eat sleep cry one. They don't have moment of open eyes n look around kind. Is it normal?

Woah! 100 days!! That's tough! Haha.. I also used to dress them in home clothing and I realised they are growing too fast and seldom go out so I change them to romper for outing in the day time even thou they are staying at home! Haha
 
koirc my bb sleeps in a playpen instead of cot. n she eenjoys her sleep. n now she can rotate herself n kick at the play pen. n she is happy with it. will probably change to floor when she can sit up n crawl.
 
dian tang must be fulfilled by amazon. there are lot of other vendors n these dont qualified for free shipping.
 
Girl girl& mofmm: u received ur kkh bill? I got a shocked myself B1 only charged me $8k+. They included antenatal claim which I already paid every visit during consult. U all check carefully.
 
Sade: I see! My house too small to put in another playpen! :S

I get annoyed by MIL every day. I don't know what's wrong with me. Maybe just not happy that I bathe and feed baby then every time after feed, she wants to take over. Like every time she only wants to play with bb and then I have to let her. I become just feeding, bathe and change diaper!
 
Reikibaby, I bought the Soothing Seahorse, Kick and play piano and fun-2-learn smart tablet. The fun-2-learn smart tablet is for older kids. Bought 2 for bb's cousins.
 
Reikibaby i wanted to buy but no free shipping for it cos it's heavy i guess.

Koirc i bought playpen instead of baby cot. and for playpen, i can sway her left n right or up and down when she is cranky and it helps to coo her.
I m staying with my mum and she is exactly the same as your mil, She din help to feed, bath nor change her diapers and all she wants is to play with bb even thou it is late at night. There was once when i was doing my postnatal massage n bb had poo, n she din even change her diaper. Haiz. But at times, she will help to look after bb while i do my laundry n get my own free time. Still grateful for her help even thou i still quarrel with her. hehe.
 
Reikibaby, kick & play piano was $49.90 at the fair. I bought $40.75 on Amazon. Soothing Seahorse was $39.90 at the fair and I paid $20.17 on Amazon.

Sade, at least your own mum easier to manage. Diff story for MIL. She just annoyed me again by commenting on my tummy. Say so long already still so big and say because I never exercise. Should go swimming with hubby in the evening. Please lor! I go swimming with hubby who is going to look after bb?! Hmph!
 

Reiki, Sade and Koirc, how many weeks old does baby needs to be before I can let him play on these Fp gym mats? It looks so fun can't wait to get one for baby to try! Thanks.

Sade and Koirc, thanks hopefully baby's night sleep pattern will improve over time. I'm happy when he sleeps so much during the day so that he can rest and grow. At night, we do make it a point not to overstimulate him.

Bb, yes baby is swaddled though he is a bit of an escape artist. His arms keeps coming out! Hopefully, he will get better with his night time sleep slowly but surely. My CL also asked me if I slept late or have insomnia while I was pregnant hence baby is so active at night. Again I wonder if there is any truth/logic to that but it's true that I kept really really late while pregnant. Sometimes even at 2am!
