    Any good uses for empty infant formula milk tins instead of throwing away?

    Yah, definitely agree! It's such a waste of raw materials, and I'm pretty sick of keeping aside those plastic milk powder scoops. Have so many of them, and I'm not sure if they can be recycled, but i place them in the recycling bag anyway. Have no use for so many! Using as plant containers is...

    Homemade flashcards

    Hi mummies, wonder if anyone has tried to make flashcards on their own? Any tips or websites to share in the process of doing so? I was thinking of doing on my own, but I am not sure if it is okay to just stick them on A5/A6 cards and laminate them using those type of lamination pockets. I...

    SAHM - engage your babies all day long?

    Hi cmeilim, Thanks for sharing! Sigh, I should be ashamed of myself. Got so much time spend with her the whole day, but sometimes I just want to get AWAY from her. For me, I think I lack initiative and the attributes highlighted above.

    Those with infants, airpot or hot water flask?

    Just like to do a quick informal poll. For those mummies here with infants (ie still need to drink milk on regular basis), do you prefer a. using an airpot (those that need to be connected to electricity 24/7); OR b. Using kettle to boil water then transfer into standalone air flask (cannot...

    Did your baby always cry alot before night sleep?

    I think wendy pointed out one common reason, scared of the dark. My girl also still fussed when we carry her to the darkened room (yellow night light on only) when she is not ready to sleep. It is very obvious. She could be happily gurgling in my arms outside at the living room, then sudden...
