My son has fallen so many times. I used to feel like a bad mom buy soon enough I realised that there are times that I can't always try to be perfect in taking care of my son but I'll give my best. Falling down is part and parcel of both parents and child when the child is growing up.

Once when my son fell off the bed...I checked online to find out what symptoms that I should look out for. I was damn kao worried that he may be injured or something. The site did give the list of symptoms but at the same time said that babies aren't that fragile too.

I think it's pretty normal. My son was at about the same schedule as yours. Even, now when he's closing to 2 yo..he still wakes up at about 11pm for 1 feed and few other times during the nights for his dream feed (don't know what time as i'm half asleep..and all he does is pull my t-shirt up and climb on me).

In fact..i got so used to this dream feed schedule and i don't know what i would do once he's totally weaned off.

hehehehe...yeah..you may be right..tongue.gif

Nowadays, when i get home, i don't make it a point to bf him. I'll wait for his to ask for it..which is usually about 1-2 hours after i reach home. I am trying to go towards him..weaning off by himself rather than me stopping dramatically. However, now..my mom don't think so...she said to put asam jawa thingy..unto my nipple so that he doesn't want my breast. As usual..i just put in one ear..and take out from the other ear tongue.gif.

it depends lor..my son wean himself off the pacifier before 1yo.

lorr..sbux is right..feeding breastmilk through the bottle is also exclusively bf. Exclusively bf means...feeding your baby with breast milk only . No other fluids eg water is to be fed.


Added on May 5, 2011, 9:05 amoh...i came home from work at 6pm...my son didn't asked for his 'nan nan' till about 830 (before he sleeps). Then..he didn't wake up for his 11pm feed. Only woke up at about 1am...keekek...hopefully this continues and slowly wean himself off (just like his pacifier)

i have a question, i'm drinking nesvita, to supplement my calcium, it says it has this calcilock that locks the calcium into your bones, but then what happens to my bm ah? no calcium then? haha sorry for this stupid question. tongue.gif


Added on May 5, 2011, 12:13 pmmy daughter never really cared for pacifier either, i gv it to her when she was around 4-5months she;s ok with it, but then we lost it and she didnt look for it and after awhile we bought another she sort of dunno what the heck it is for, she just played with it sometime she sucked it the right way, sometime she suck the handle part. haha

Hmm..i dunno if i say it correctly or not...usually if our own intake of calcium is not sufficient..it's usually taken from the bones and teeth..hence whey bf moms are encouraged to drink lots of milk or up their calcium intake in order not use the calcium from the bones or teeth (which leads to osteoporosis and decay)..therefore..back to your questions..then it's a good thing that your bones have calcium from the drink..coz if not enough calcium..our body will take the calcium from the bones.

maybe you can eat yoghurt too...up on food that has high calcium like broccoli..lady's fingers..tofu..You can go google to find out what other foods has high calcium.

Just to remind..whatever we eat or drink will be 'reflected' in our breast milk. Sometimes, even though we are tolerant to dairy..our babies may not..thus dairy may not be the right answer to up on calcium intake. Just keep a lookout if you do drink milk or consume dairy.

to me..i think should be fine..coz whatever milk or products are made for bf moms..are safe to consume by any other ladies. If you are not bf..i'll suggest for you to drink the nesvita..calcium fresh milk (though it's more expensive) or probably anlene.


Added on May 9, 2011, 9:29 amunless you are pregnant..then you should double check if it's suitable for pregnant ladies.

I salute you lar..still thinking of having another child. for me 1 sudah cukup lar. Everything is getting expensive..can't afford another baby.

Maybe you wanna try tandem bf? but will be tiring lar..probably you can try after he reach 1yo...as by then your son will be getting most of the nutrients from solids instead of your milk.

ok..me being notti here..ask your husband..would he like being weaned off from S*X ...kekeke..jk jk..kekeke

coming back to weaning off night feeds..you can try lar..some ppl can wean off..but it's difficult as you sleep with your son. unless he sleeps in different room or on the floor..it may be easier. then again..bf babies tend to look for the breast at nights for comfort and not exactly drinking milk .

hehehehe..that's what my hubby used to complain too but now..it's much better. got time to sayang sayang..as long it's before 11pm...coz Xander usually wakes up at that time for his feed.

My bathroom too small to fit all three...so it's usually either me or hubby with Xander.

It's good to train baby to bathe without baby tub. I started using the water heater shower to bathe Xander since he learn how to stand.

At this age is fine...though there are times that Xander is inquisitive. LOL. But i tell him that cannot touch. And then he will chirp in "Ka gak" which means poo. LOL.

haiyoo after baby came we hardly bath together la.. miss it now... even if we do its usually a rushing one...

i too got sanju to bathe with shower once he started walking.. he enjoys it better

We still manage to bathe together..either when Xander is sleeping..or if he's awake..he'll watch us bathing as the bathroom door has to be open in case the toilet decides to swallow us up. LOL.

Do you guys experience that your sons don't allow you to close the door..and he has to see you shower?

Xander cries if the door is closed.

I have no more luxury when showering unless he's a sleep.

Usually...at your son's age, his suckles much better than before..hence lesser time in bf.
