    Will 2nd baby come earlier than the 1st?

    Not true.. My #1 was exactly 36 weeks and #2 was exactly 37 weeks. I had the same worries too cause everyone says 'the next baby will arrive earlier'. It gave me lots of pressure cause #1 was premature and my gynae said I had 50% chance of having the next one premature again. I took extra care...

    What to expect on your 2nd pregnancy

    I was pregnant with #2 when #1 was 7mths old...It was tiring especially during the last trimester. I felt a little guilty towards my elder because I couldn't oblige when he wants me to carry him. Anything that requires quite a fair bit of physical movement is a no-no for me.. so I could only sit...

    Child Care or Playgroup?

    my recommendation is to quickly find a school or centre soon. Many schools are already full or on wait list for Jan enrolment.

    Do u train ur babies to sleep thru the night?

    Hi Angelwendy, I dont mean to scare you... but my elder son has the same issue too. Now he's already 18 mths and still wakes up for milk 2 times in the wee hours... I think it may be because our babies are small but frequent drinkers... Luckily my #2 can sleep thru most nights without feeding.

    Introduction of Solid Food for preemies

    My boy was on formula for premature and underweight babies. I switched to the normal formula when his weight increased to an average baby's weight. From then on, I just follow the guidelines for any normal babies. Introduced solids when he was 6 mths. Now he is a healthy and active 18 mth.

    How to prepare myself for breastfeeding?

    When I delivered my first born, I tried to BF him for about a milk. I had to reluctantly give up and turn to FM because my milk supply was very low... only 4 ounces a day even if I diligently tried to BF and pump. I even took milk boosting soups, tea and supplements but it increased only by a...
