Hello. Just a quick question. Can use tap water and boil for bb to drink? Or bottled water better? If bottled water, what type of bottled water? Thank you.

Newborn not pooping

Initially she was pooping fine when she drink dugro milk and my breast milk then suddenly I stopped giving my breast milk bcos I had mastitis and taking antibiotics didn’t want to give my milk and I also suddenly change her milk to similac instead but she suddenly stop pooping and having hard time to poop anyone have any advice or experience this before as I’m first time mom I’m confused with what happening rn🙏🏻

Aiyoh don't worry too much, my neighbour's baby also went through same thing when she switched formula, her PD told her the tummy adjustment can take up to 2 weeks, so a bit of hard stool or less pooping is quite normal at first. Someone in my mum WhatsApp group mentioned switching to Nan Pro helped her baby cos it's gentler on the tummy, and she made sure to give extra water sips too. But since your baby is a newborn and you also just stopped breastmilk at the same time, better bring her to see her PD just to be safe ya!

MIL rant arghhs

Tell me am I right to be angry or annoyed. Seriously a few times my MIL comes over and kinda expect me to open the door when she has card access. Ok fine, I open it. But today she decided to open herself w the card access and came in and put on the things she buy and do whatever things in the kitchen then went to the toilet. She came in and out and ignored both me and my daughter. Even my daughter like why nainai didn't talk to her. Maybe I'm the bitch who didn't call her first but why do this to my daughter. After that she just sat there on the floor to use her phone. I really didn't bother to go greet her then. My daughter unfortunately not feeling well and vomited in the morning, and she kept asking her to drink since she is not well. Lo and behold she vomited again.. soooo annoyed and what's worse is my husband asks me not to be angry?! Wth.

You are not wrong to feel annoyed at all, especially the part where she ignored your daughter first and then turned around and kept pushing her to drink when she was already unwell and vomited. Your husband asking you not to be angry is the part that would really get me too, because he should be the one stepping in to set some expectations with his own mum lah. The card access thing also needs a proper conversation because walking in and out like that without even acknowledging you both is just not okay.

Fertility clinic or gynae recommendations in Sg

Hi, my husband and I are trying to conceive, we've tried but failed, so we're planning to consult doctors for checkup and advice. Any recommendations for doctors or clinics? Thanks!#fertility

Fertility clinic or gynae recommendations in Sg

Hi mummy, sorry to hear about this. But no worries! Stay strong! Have you tried NUH or KKH? I heard their fertility clinics are quite good. Structured and supportive. If you prefer private, can try Dr Roland Chieng, Dr Tan Thiam Chye… hope this helps!🥰

Infants Footwear

Any recommendations for footwear for infants learning to walk/starts to walk?

For babies just starting to walk, get soft sole shoes!! Super important at this stage cos hard soles can affect how they develop their gait. Pediped and Stride Rite are the gold standard but can be pricey. Locally u can find Attipas which is super popular, very lightweight and flexible. Can get on Lazada/Shopee. Just make sure got good grip on the bottom and fits snugly but not too tight 😊

My son is 13 month old. He has this on-going “sudden screaming in the night” throughout his baby and now toddlerhood. It doesn’t happen everytime but it does make us feel exhausted when he wakes 2-3 times not wanting milk , and it’s not because of humid weather . Some might say that it’s “sleep regression” and I know not babies have this and not all babies are the same. Just wondering how many parents here are experiencing this? I heard that this sleep regression may go on till 2 years old.

Oh yes! My LO went through something similar too. He would scream and cry at night. It lasted a few weeks because of teething, separation anxiety and developmental changes. You can try check the room temperature too.. or change his routine to do a test. Hopefully things get better for u! Stay strong!

Help. Overwhelmed Mom

Is it normal that my 13mth old toddler can go without napping for 10 hours despite he is unwell, and can eat non-stop?

My little one is totally like this!! She’s a non stop Enegiser bunny from 6 am to 8 pm. Whether rain or shine. Sick or not. But by 8 pm she’s conked out like the wind!

School or no school???

Help!!! Parents, I really need your advice. My husband and I are both self-employed, and we’ve been taking care of our 2-year-old full-time on our own. We actually stepped back from our business more than 2 years ago, even before our baby was born, so our income has been declining. Now we’re at a point where we need to decide whether to send our child to school or continue caring for her ourselves. This has been causing a lot of disagreements and arguments between us almost every other day, and I feel it’s becoming unhealthy for our relationship. My husband is strongly against the idea of sending our baby girl to school, but I can see that he often feels anxious and loses his temper when things get tough with her. Tbh, he's really very helpful and hands on when coping with our girl. I’m feeling really conflicted and unsure what to do. What would you do in my situation?

300% school. Their growth is tremendous

Teething toddler

My son's canines are currently cutting through the top gum and I can see bottom ones making an appearance soon. He's having meltdowns everyday. He has been having fever for five days. Sometimes teething gel doesn't work. How do I get through this 😭

Take some meds for the fever / see doctor? Give your son those frozen teething toys. they work very well with my girl

Overwhelmed Mother

Mummies, do you reprimand or even get irritated when your LO just meltdown or threw temper over very minor things (eg: reluctant to leave the playground)? LO will either meltdown, throw things or scream. Thats when I will lose my cool and raised my voice. Feel guilty after that. How do you deal with your own emotion(temper)?

I'm a preschool teacher yet I lose my cool with my baby. Definitely tap out and get husband to tap in. When he feels overwhelmed then swop. Sometimes it's tough, but we need to stop and remember that they are experiencing big emotions in such little bodies.
