My girl's sleep pattern is still slightly erratic, but by and large it goes something like this: morning wake up around 7am to feed, sleep til 9-10am, wake to feed, bathe, sleep til 1-2pm to feed, stay awake a while, sleep 3-5pm then feed, sleep til 8-9pm to feed, fuss til midnight feed (this is the so-called colicky part), wakes around 3-4am to feed (on rare occasions she skips this feed yay!), sleep til 7am, etc.
Amazingly my girl slept through the huge thunderstorm earlier - didn't wake despite all that loud clapping of thunder! Haha~ when you want her to sleep and she refuses, there's nothing we can do; when she wants to sleep, nothing seems to wake her up. dont know whether to laugh or cry lol.
Daytime naps and nightime naps take place at different locations - I will put her in her cot (dim bedroom with aircon) only from 9pm onwards, then from after 7am she sleeps in her bouncer in the living room (ceiling fan, with normal household noises). I dont't know if this is how the routine is for most people - basically I'm following baby's timing and going by demand, (i.e. I dont't wake her at regular timeslots to feed) good thing is she seems to demand feeding quite regularly anyway.
By the way, at 6 weeks now my girl is still taking only 90ml per feed - occasionally will take up to 110ml but most of the time she will stop at 90ml. How much are your babies taking?
Heh I know what you mean about white elephants, I have a few of those at home haha - well I guess the best way is to try it on. If you stay nearby I could let you test it with your kids? I live in Jurong East, sometimes at my mum's at Kembangan.
Can pop by if you happen to travel this way.Not sure what is the weight capacity for the Ergo, I'm sure it's on the box or manual somewhere but it's buried deep in my store room at the moment... but my friend could carry her 4 year old toddler in it, maybe your son shouldn't be a problem. Do they still like being carried at that age?
Here are some detailed reviews of the Ergo Sport on Amazon (scroll to the bottom). Hope it helps!

nightingale, the ergo spree selling the carrier only for $68 why so cheap, is not the one you using right???

Hahaha... Good to share experience ma...
Thanx to mummies who shared ur baby's sleeping habits... Would love to hear more though..
Anywy... Seem like our babies need more time to acquire day n night sleeping hrs and character... Presently it seem to me they are still very small and unable to sustain hunger longer? Nvtheless hahaha it is interesting enuf to learn frm our own babies and even more enriching to learn abt others!

Thank you for your offer and your information. My hubby is out-station in US now, do you think it's cheaper there but not sure he has time to go look for it. Hmm...My girl's sleep pattern is still slightly erratic, but by and large it goes something like this: morning wake up around 7am to feed, sleep til 9-10am, wake to feed, bathe, sleep til 1-2pm to feed, stay awake a while, sleep 3-5pm then feed, sleep til 8-9pm to feed, fuss til midnight feed (this is the so-called colicky part), wakes around 3-4am to feed (on rare occasions she skips this feed yay!), sleep til 7am, etc.

Nightingale,
your daughter's pattern seems normal to me. my son's timing used to be like your daughter's. i read in a book and it seems like your daughter sleep, wake pattern is perfect. so....not to worry. my daughter is a huge eater, my breast milk will never make her full. sigh...she takes about 180ml at about 7 weeks.

I think the Ergo Sport is going for around US$90? See Amazon.com: ERGO Sport Carrier - Black / White Stitching: Baby: Reviews, Prices & more
Maybe can order and have it shipped to your hubby's US address?
Hi mrs eng
Greenish yellow stool could means that the baby is taking more foremilk n less hindmilk. one of the solution is to ensure that baby feed and empty one breast before offering another. what i do sometime is to offer the same breast 2 times before switching to the another breast during feed.

Yup yup i know this rule and have been doing tht...
Someone showed me a website frm similac tat decodes stools... It say the greenish stools could be bcos of the iron content in formula milk... But im on total breast feeding.....

I also exp it and as i have read, it is because of drinking more foremilk then hindmilk too. So now i make sure she feeds on one breast and feed on it again the next round before changing. It seems to have improved. But my hindmilk seems to be coming out very late and baby already fell asleep by then? Could it be your baby also did not drink the hindmilk?
Does your baby turn red and make ehhh sound when shitting? I notice recently he takes a long time trying to shit and makes alot of sound trying to poo but the poo does not seem constipated.
