autumnbronze,


I'm so sorry to hear your little one had to be hospitalised! Mine was hospitalized twice in his first month too. I was in pieces. Fortunately, the hospital didn't fight me about the breastfeeding, otherwise I would've just sunk into depression. At that point, it seemed to be the only thing I could do for my child...

Glad to know your baby is doing better! Mine was a scrawny looking thing. He was not very plump at birth and lost more weight at the beginning. But now he's got thunder thighs and more spare tyres than a fleet of transport trucks would ever need.

Hi MummyThreeStreams,

Thanks :hugs:

Gosh! twice :yikes:

It must have been so so tough on you!!

Both my sons were born under 3 kg. When DS2 returned home after delivery, he was a mere 2.5kg.

But I was/am not worried unlike the elders cuz their vital signs and development of their gross motor skills were/are good

She recommended one formula, in the end gave another, didn't even give me the liberty to research and choose :siao:

that must be tough!
[quote]1 and a half weeks after DS2 was discharged, I made DS2 go cold turkey and stopped the formula. [/quote]glad that it worked out in the end!
[quote]I do not know if your friend will face the same situation. Just tell her to perservere and not give up!![/quote]yes, thanks, will continue to encourage her!

lol... all my 3 kids were less than 3kg when they were born too.

ds1 was bf only 4 mths. so he did catch up in the weight dept but not as much as ds2 and dd, who were fully bf for a long time.

ds2 and dd both hit 9+kg, almost 10kg at 6months.
like mummythreestreams, thunder thighs, michelin baby and lotus root arms and legs were some phrases people like to use on them.

but that's the thing abt breast milk... after the start solids, which is mainly more regular after 7month, they all start to slim down.

and when all 3 start running around after 1yo, and fall sick more often, they all become thinner and thinner as they grow older!

so now my ds1 is the thinnest, underweight already... sighz

We can't go out of Singapore cos father is not free.

I haven't tried the Art Science Museum at MBS, if that's the one you're talking about? Any comments from other moms?

ooh, i like shopping malls as much as science centers but my kids hate shopping. so during hols, i've no choice but to visit places that are more kid-friendly.

jedamum, CCA for your kid the 2 weeks? Competition coming up is it?

P6s would have reached another milestone in their lives after 5 Oct.
It's indeed a different feeling...however, mummies still have to be as 'on' bcos these kids are entering teenager stage...another terrible 2s stage.

Hi kids_r_innocent,

Sometimes when both are asleep, I do recall those times when they are just babies. But, I prefer them at this age now.
