my friend suggests me to add into fresh expressed milk. metallic smell of frozen is stronger n less sweet
Like what Imac suggested, you might want to try the following for example add 1/3 of frozen EBM to 2/3 of fresh EBM. If he is ok with the taste can try to increase it bit by bit until he can take the whole bottle of frozen EBM. If he cant, maybe just reduce the amount of frozen EBM and try again.

So far I have not try frozen EBM cos dont have extra to store, but have read that frozen EM dont taste nice at all....hahaha

Maybe you can start introducing the frozen EBM to ur baby and see how he reacts to it. Just try and maybe he will take it too. Tell your baby that the frozen is mummy's milk too.

PS: I wish i can overload my freezer with frozen EBM too. >.<

my baby already showing signs of flipping. Just that he is not able to turn fully. Even if he turn over, he cannot get his hands out (it will be trapped under his belly) *so cute*
Ya i agree.. my gal also can turn left and right. But cannot turn fully yet.. Think maybe around 4 mths bah.. But some maybe fast/slow..

I am giving my boy about 120ml every 3hrs. At night, he will only sleep about 5-6hrs. He will wake up at about 2am for another feed. He normally goes to sleep at around 8-9pm.

My DD sleeps around 10pm and wakes up ard 3-4am for her feed... so is ard 5-6hrs as well.. Think if they can hit 5-6 hrs at 3mths is considered to be 'sleeping through the night'.
I have a fren's baby (also 3mths) still waking up every 3hrs at night!!

Maybe i shld go cut short too.. any idea how long before the hair dropping stops?
no clue leh. but i think its better to cut the hair short rather then go bald. We cant be angry our prince and princesses when they pull our hair right.

Miss those locks of hair, but i think its for the better cause.

how much are you feeding your girl now? noticed that my boy is taking lesser and lesser of the milk. He is solely on breast milk. also noticed that he is starting to wean away from my breast. He now knows how to play with his teat and my breast with his tongue.
