2017-01-027.30am i feed my 5mth lo with ebm (straight from pumped). Then he rest awhile till ard 9.30am i continue with the same bottle. (Bottle was place in room with aircon, never put in fridge yet). Now still have balance of bm as he still wana slp... so do i keep the balance bm in the fridge or throw away as the bm was pumped since ard 7.30am? Had read on online tat bm can keep in room temperature for 4 to 6 hours? Have been difficulty to feed my lo recently as he wants to play..when bottle feed he will scream here and there... sometimes also slp till dun want to drink milk. Was worried he lack of feeding/dehydrate. Thus occasionally will latch him but not sure if how much he had drink.. His daily schedule: 160ml per feed every 4-5hourly. But sometimes he only drink either 100ml or less (went he is screaming) OR timing was been extended till 6 hr (due to he is slping even in day time).

2017-01-02Hi mummies, recently heard that spectra 9 plus breast pump is suitable only for women with sensitive nipple. Women with normal nipple and insists on using spectra 9 plus breast pump will cause milk supply to drop drastically? Is that true? I love the spectra 9 plus because of its outlook and lightweight. Seems like I have to give it a miss since I suspect I should be of normal nipple

2017-01-03Hi mummies, any good and reliable babysitter with experience to recommend who stay in Tampines? My LO is 3.5months old. Looking to put at babysitter house from 12pm to 10pm, Monday to Friday. Rather urgent, for short term about 1 month.

We currently have an ingenuity playpen and we're going to adjust the height to the lower one and my MIL is afraid it'll hurt her back (since she's looking after baby on the weekdays).

2017-01-03My husband and i have been quarreling. He doesn't want to listen. He expect me to listen to him . His off days he doesn't look after my lo. He said he needs to go back to work. I trusted him. Until i found out when he come back he went straight to sleep. I can even smell beer in his body. Many times i thinking of divorce. I m telling myself why. If he cheated on me; i will know because he will not have sex. But we had sex. If he doesn't and thats where my suspicious comes. I am ready to raised my daughter alone. I can be both role. Whats the point of having this type of man in my life where he doesn't even help me. I even checked his messages. What ever messages within his friends or colleague. He delete it off. Seriously; i need to ask myself where i stand. Mummy what would you do??

2017-01-04How involved is your Husband in your children's lives? I'm just disappointed that my husband doesn't seem ready to be a Father yet. He's not young, he's just like a blockhead. I tried to send him articles to read, encourage him to read up more about pregnancy and how to handle kids as a first time parents. He's excited about having kids but he's not doing anything else. I added him in Fb mummies n daddies group so that he can read those queries that mummies daddies post. Because of some complications in pregnancy I gotta quit my job. So I'm so free to Google n check things out. Like what milk bottles to buy, breast pump, milk powder, diapers, when's baby fair what to buy at the fair etc etc etc etc. So I asked him for opinion he will be like "I'll check" but he NEVER GET BACK TO ME. I ask again n again on separate days. There's a upcoming baby fair and I said the baby fair don't seem to sell the Sterilizer I want. He's like what you want ; Oh, then how? I was mad. I mentioned Hanil like 10-20 times before?!! Is he even listening. I scolded him, don't think u are the only one working now u can't don't care anything. Because next time I'll go back to workforce and I can foresee I'll be only one handling both of them (I'm Expecting twins). I'm too is a ftm but I dislike how he know nuts and still doesn't seem to be worried. I even create excel spreadsheet to let know how what is needed for mummy and babies if anything he don't know he has to ask me or Google but he didn't even read through the spreadsheet. don't get me wrong he's a nice Husband, he massage me Every night even wash my feet for me because I can't bend down to reach. How can I make him be more involve in pregnancy n get him ready to be a daddy ?
2017-01-04Hi mummies, those pills or injections to "secure" the womb or baby during pregnancy, are they good or do they have any side effects? Gynae is suggesting that maybe I might want to consider the options as I kept having bad cramps as though I'm gonna deliver. In my 25 weeks now.

CNY is the most hatred occasion to me because I find it very bored and tiring to bring our 2.5 yo girl to house visiting. As most of my hubby's relatives houses are not very well ventilated and from past 2 years experience my girl can look abit shag and sweat like mad, I am thinking to skip visiting some houses.

2017-01-05Hi , I'm getting anxious about my LO's walking development.. he will turn 15 months old on 15 Jan. He started crawling and cruising at 7-8 months old. Right now , he is able to walk with us holding his hands but so far I don't see him attempting to walk on his own yet. My elder one started walking at 11 months so I'm quite worried .. am I worrying for nothing? My mil kept asking me why he hasn't walk yet and kept saying that she wants to boil the frog soup for him.. haiz.. she said the frog soup will strengthen his legs.. sigh..
