The right parenting

How can parents in Singapore balance setting healthy boundaries and discipline with staying emotionally connected to their child, especially when they feel pressured to “get parenting right?”

I feel that when it comes to parenting,whatever u do, someone will have something to comment about. So decide on your own strategy, and then ignore what others say.

Hearing loss

Baby failed her newborn hearing tests and did ERA/SSEP. Results showed moderate to severe hearing loss and will be needing hearing aid. Feeling really anxious and devastated. Any mummies have the same experience?

I'm so sorry you're going through this, mama. I don't have personal experience with this myself, but I know this must feel really overwhelming right now, and it's completely okay to feel the way you do. The good news is that early detection means your baby can get support early, and hearing aids these days are so much better than before. I'd really encourage you to lean on your PD or the audiologist at KKH for guidance on next steps and maybe connect with parent support groups focused on hearing loss, because there are mums out there who've walked this path and can share what they've learned. You're doing the right thing by seeking answers, and your baby is lucky to have a mum who cares this much.

Pillow talk

Hey mums, is it ok to use an anti flat head pillow for new borns? I read articles it’s unsafe as pillows might cause SID? A firm mattress is recommended instead. What’s your take on this?#advicepls #1stimemom

I did not use pillow for my daughter and her head didn't turn flat. I'm a FTM too so I did what's recommended, since I was too anxious and didn't want to regret if anything happens. A baby with a flat head is better than losing the baby, that's what I thought.

Separation/stranger anxiety

My 7 month old is currently facing separation/stranger anxiety!! Now she can’t see me walk away or she can’t be passed to stranger eventho she has been gg to ifc since 4 month old. She wasn’t like this back then. Recently the teachers feedback that she’s rather cranky at sch cause she doesnt want unfamiliar faces around. Is this normal? Is this a phase?

Oh my, my little one went through exactly the same phase around 7 months old! It’s totally normal separation and stranger anxiety, even if they’ve been in childcare since 4 months. Babies’ brains develop fast at this age, they suddenly understand “mom can leave”, which triggers the fussiness. It is temporary, though it can feel tough right now. My baby also got upset with new people and hated me stepping away for even a minute. It makes sense she gets fussy at school. Be patient, this developmental stage will fade in a few months. You’re doing great!

Poo after feed

Since june this year, my infant has been having this “diarrhoea” episode three times. I’m not sure if it’s exactly diarrhoea because the texture is still pasty but it’s just that she has been pooing frequently (about 1-2 hrs after every feed) and this episode will last abt a week. Anybody else facing this issue as well with their LO? It’s so tiring… Disclaimer: she’s in IFC since may this year.

Is a domestic helper necessary for parents with kid(s)?

If necessary, do share what duties your maid does?

Personally coping ok with 1 kid and without helper as both husband n wife share the workload. Not comfortable of having to live with a stranger in the house as well.
