    9 months old rejecting solids

    Yup... and also the organic veggie ones available at organic stores. Yes, sometimes just changing the bowl/spoon works too... I read in a HPB pamphlet regarding feeding babies and it said it's ok to feed one egg yolk a day... the cholesterol is needed for their brain development

    Feeding when going holiday with toddler

    I'd bring my mini slowcooker with me and cook as MieVee suggested a largely vegetarian diet. If you have whitebait powder or ikan bilis powder, you can bring that along as well. I wouldn't recommend bringing meat/fish. If cooking is not possible, I would bring organic jarred food (without...

    new food

    You could treat those foods you mentioned as snacks for your child. If he doesn't like it, you can offer it again for the next few days just to make a note whether or not he is allergic to the food. In general, abide by the 4-day wait rule. After that, if he really doesn't like the food, intro...

    Food for 1 yr old

    At 1 yr old, she can move on to eating more varieties of food as suggested by the other mummies. Offer the variety and monitor which she takes to and you could give that more often than the others - at least that's what I do. I've got some recipes of the food I cook for my tot here. :)

    9 months old rejecting solids

    I had the same experience too! My girl oso rejected everything she used to eat at about 9mths so I had to experiment with different types of food. Eventually she went back to eating but had changed preferences. More about my experience here.

    Expressing issues

    It's normal for bb to nurse frequently, esp within the first month. Baby's latch is the best pump and can get more milk than what you can express using the breastpump. Don't worry. As long as your bb is contented and growing well, ignore the amt you actually manage to express. :)

    Cereal & Milk

    I agree with the rest of the mummies. Skinny doesn't mean unhealthy. My girl's 2+ but only 9+kg. Skinny and small but really, I've no complaints! :)

    PLEASE HELP ME!! My baby can't sleep at night without nursing

    My dd didnt noe how to latch in the first month and when she finally learnt to do it in the 2nd month, i introduced her to lying down to nurse and after a few days, she managed to learn how to do it. I guess it takes some practice for both mummy and baby. :) Sasha, don't give up... keep...

    when to send the little one to little tots to socialise?

    There's actually no hurry to send your child to a cc or playgroup just to socialise. Kids up to 3 years old mostly still engage in parallel play/associative play rather than play actively together (cooperative play). :) I'm a sahm so I homeschool my child (she's 2yo) (you can chk out my...

    Do you pump strictly every 3 or 4 hours?

    Try to let your bb latch on for most/all feeds for the weekend when you are not working and latch bb on before work and after you get home. Baby's latch is better at stimulating milk supply. Chk out this link too: kellymom.com :: I'm not pumping enough milk. What can I do?

    Feeding babies with outside food

    Try out the bottled food first before going. If she likes it, then go and buy more. If she doesn't like it, at least you have time to search for alternatives.

    how does ur toddler falls asleep at night

    I do a bedtime routine every night - she's got a few activities to choose from apart from the usual warm bath and brushing teeth - and when all that's done, we turn off the lights and she latches on for a milk feed. After she's done with both boobs, I will then hug her, say sweet nothings to her...

    Semi-solid food for 4 mth old baby

    Agree with meiteoh. The recommended age to start semisolids is 6mths though some choose to start at 4mths. At 4 mths, you could try looking for cereals suitable for 4mths and up - most cereals are for 6mths and above so you'd have to look carefully. I think the Moon Rabbit Brown rice cereal...
