Hi! I'm looking for a caterer for my baby's full month celebration. Hope that the food list includes red eggs / ang gu kwee. Any recommendation anyone? Thanks in advance :)

Hi all, Does anyone have any recommendations for a good confinement lady?

My 7mth baby is having some spots on his legs.. They are small, a little red but not itchy (as he is not scratching them).. Does anyone know what they are? Are they any cause for concern?

nutela - my mother in law also does the same thing to my baby.. She will say - Aiyah, your mother dont't know how to carry you properly / Your mother never bathe you properly.. Basically, it's "Your mother never do this / Your mother doesn't know how to do that" etc... So frustrating.. shaylin...

yann13 - No, I haven't started my baby on solids yet.. But I have tried letting him taste fruits now and then.. We tried lychee (loves it) and cherry (no interest).. Will be trying a little rice cereal with him soon.. There are various brands of rice cereals in the market, so no need to cook...

I think a lot of us are having issues with our mils.. Me too.. I still remember during the first 2 months, when I was breastfeeding my baby, mother in law and grandmother-in-law will comment that baby not enough to drink, so must supplement with formula milk.. I was so stressed that I gave in...

Hi mummies! As I will be returning to work full time soon, I was thinking of sending my son to childcare centre when he meets the minimum age.. Appreciate your advice: 1) At what age can we send our kid to childcare centre? 2) What do they learn at the centre? 3) Do we have to register...

Not sure whether this will help, but when my baby had diarrhea previously when he was about 2 months old, we switched to soy milk.. A scope of soy milk replaces a scope of normal milk on the first day, and then 2 scopes of soy milk replaces 2 scopes of normal milk on the second day and so on...

It was similar to my baby when he was about 2 months old.. There were a few days in a row when he would cry very loudly, until his whole face turned red and there were tears.. My mil carried him and he became quiet immediately.. The next night, we swaddled him and it works.. The following night...

I'm giving Nan to my baby too... He takes well to it.. Never tried Similac though...

I am using the Manducca carrier for my 2mth + boy.. So far, he seems quite comfortable but we have only been to shopping centres while using this carrier.. Reason being that we both perspire a lot, and I am worried that he will overheat if we go outdoors.. We would carry him in our arms / use...

Pls don't have a baby as you are thinking of divorce.. It will complicate matters and is unfair to the baby..

Have you noticed any strange behaviour or changes in your husband? If not, I would take what your mother in law and sister in law said with a pinch of salt.. But, I feel that you should have some savings of your own for any emergency... Do you have any joint savings with your husband?

Hi all, My 2 mth + baby's feeding quantity seems to be reducing.. He could finish close to 170ml each feed (5 times a day) for the last 2 weeks, but he could only finish about 140ml each feed this week.. Has anyone encountered reduction in their baby's feeding quantity? Is there cause for...
