newbbi- ya esp weather so hot nwdays!!
aldan dun drink much milk leh. the most fm he drinks is 180ml for last feed. used to can drink 210ml but nw no more le. n realise he doesnt reali like the cc food. like today fried rice, he only ate few spoonfuls n took 3 slices of watermelon. he likes fruits more thn food!
hw many times 260ml does char drinks?
 
Ting,
i see..mayb becos e food in cc tasteless lor, thats y he dun like? Do they give him tea breaks?

charlotte drinks 260ml twice a day, bf is 1 bowl od cereal with 3scopes of FM + bread and fruit. then lunch 1.5bowl of porridge/pasta/brown rice, afternoon mayb abit of bread before she nap, then her 260ml, then 7pm eat 1 bowl of rice + soup, then last feed at abt 9pm+ 260ml lor...i tink her intake of milk not alot lor =C...
 
nwebbi- ok leh the fried rice today.. maybe he's nt used to it. yup they hv 1 mornin tea break at 9.30 thn afternn at 3.30 aft nap.
seemed aldan's intake of milk abt the same as char as he drinks more often
nw his schedule is:
8am 150ml milk
9.30 teabreak like bread, biscuits, cereal
12.00 lunch + 120ml milk thn nap
3.30pm 150ml milk plus teabreak
5.30pm 150ml
7.30pm dinner (rice or porridge)
10pm 180ml
 
ting/newbbi,
i envy that all your kids drink milk well loh.
i think only inez dun like milk.
she only drink 2 feeds of 200 ml in ccc only.

when at home, she totally reject milk. only water.
 
n hor i so surprised he can finish his milk so fast in sch leh! at home he reali takes his sweet time to drink so was reali surprised when the teacher told me he finished 150ml in 5mins!!! tat nvr hapen b4 lor!
 
Ting,
oic...good lor, if not he gets hungry de...Ask u hor, does e cc provided wet tissue?or do u provide them with it?

Aldan drinks 2hrly hor? Aldan likes yogurt?Recently i find charlotte don't like e usual fruits she used to like..Now she prefers avacado to pear and apple and blueberries..funny hor, avacado no taste she like, apple sweet she dun like..But she loves ice creamm...this ger hor, funny le..

I find that charlotte sometimes aft drinking 260ml, still cry for milk le...we gave her bread instead lor..cos we hv increased her BR to 4 scopes le, scare too filling for her...Whenever we eat, she will pull our hands if she wans to eat leh...
 
Ting,
Mayb he wan to finish fast so that can help to feed others lor and be like a gor gorlor..hehe..cos i saw ur blog =)..hee

Linda,
then at home she takes her meals quite ok hor?
 
newbbi,
inez eat solid food very well. she is a very easy ger. ea almost everything.
that's y, i am not so worried.

she eats whatever i cook.
so now she kinda dun like outside food, cos i cook for her almost everyday. when go mil house then dun have to cook or weekends, only sat night go my gpa house, my aunty cook dinner then she eat what we eat.

ting,
inez eat her meals very fast, only need 15 mins to finshed her meals, at home or outside or in ccc.
also teacher in ccc tells me she drink milk also very fast, 200 ml, 5 mins done leow.
 
newbbi- gt to bring own wet tissue but hor i chk w the teachers, she said actuali no need one cos they wil usu wash directly aft every diaper change. so nw hor, my carlsons wipes all sittin in the shelf. hahah.. stil gt so many packs! can use for no. 2
i let him tried yoghurt once but he doesnt like. he stil prefers real fruits so let him be. he is a junkie lor! likes to eat all the funny things like fries, bisuits, chocolate, icecream. he can open the fridge nw so wil go there take out the butter cookies n bring to the sofa n help himself!!
 
Linda,
i see..ya lor, inez prefers solid food mayb =)...Haiz, my ger, eat apple still need to cut bery thin slice and let her bite..hiaz...I wan to train her to eat herself liao, any tips?

Ting,
hmm..good lor, can keep for #2 leh..hee.. Ahyo, faintz, he knows how to open liao? clever aldan!
Tot kids like yogurt..keke..
 
linda- tats gd. inez eats everythg. aldan fussy like me! jialat lor... ytd we were eatin out thn i ordered fish soup mee hoon for him but he was more intereted in the fries cos hb was hvg western food. gv him fries he ok but mee hoon he pushed away!
 
newbbi,
ya.. she prefer solid food to milk.
but she can drink a lot of water.

for feed on her own, you must be able to take the mess that she made. if you afraid dirty, then you will tends to feed her then she wont learn leow.
for inez, usually i separate into two bowls, she will feed herself on one bowl, i will feed with another bowl. other wise cold food not good for their little tummy also.

inez also dun really like yogurt leh. she like aldan prefer fruit fruits.
so every evening if i go fetch her, i will cut half of apple/pear/strawberry.. etc for her before she eats her dinner.
cos if hb working, i gotta rush home to cook by then her dinner ard 7.30pm, so gotta give her some fruits to fill a bit of her hungry 1st.
 
newbbi- n another big headache is we fix a door to prevent him from gg into the kitchen but he actuali noe hw to lock n unlock it =_=
the diapers look cheap leh. i ordered frm BP b4 but my hb dun like the idea of hvg to arrange n go pick up the diapers. he prefers convenience n pay bit more its ok.
 
Linda,
i tinking of feeding her til 3/4 full first, then let her feed herself, if not end up she plays all her food then won't eat le..hehe..

I see..cut half meaning cut into dice?slice? i scare char gets choke le..

Y not u get a thermal pot le..A good investment le..then u just go home cook rice can le.. =)..Can use rice cooker to steam fish or egg for inez lor..
 
ting,
maybe i am not fussy over food and we let inez eat and try all kinds of food bah. and also when she is taken care by my aunty, my aunty dun give her chance to choose wat she like or dun like, have to eat everything. dun like my aunty will try to give again and again till she eat.
that's y, she not fussy bah.

newbbi,
i have the thermal pot too... initially got used, but think the duration from the time i cook till i reached home too long, so the food inside like not hot.
so i gave up. anyway, used to it leow. so ok lah. reached home ard 6.45pm, settle inez, on barney for her, she can lay on the playmat to watch leow.
she dun really disturb me and i usually prepare the leow that i want to cook the next day in the fridge. so i wash the rice and pour all the leow in and cook.
then clear her school bag, wash her bottles, iron her uniform, pack her bag by then dinner is almost done.
just need another 10 mins to cool the porridge or marroni then she can eat leow.
 
newbbi,
maybe you can like me, separate into 2 bowls, give her a fair bit to let her eat on her own and at he same time feed her in the other bowl.

when she is younger, i cut into small cube. have to watch them eat loh. cannot leave them alone de.
then now she older, i just cut into slice for her.
not very thin slice, maybe half an apple, can cut into 8 pieces like dat.
 
linda- wat do u usu cook everyday? last sat my 1st time to steam fish n turn out nt bad! hahahha.. cos i dun reali cook. usu eat out or tarbao bk.
 
ting,
if my hb off day, he will help me cook porridge with watever leow i prepare the night before, just damp everything inside the rice cooker. then go fetch inez, fetch me then we tabao our dinner then go back eat cos cook inez dinner leow.

or hb off day, then at night got class, then he will help me cook with watever leow i prepare, damp all inside rice cooker and go for class. then i go fetch inez, then my dinner/supper, he will buy for me when he return, cos i will not have time to eat until inez sleep.

if he working, then i have to rush home to cook either marconni or porridge, will ask what inez want to eat. then put in the pot with whatever loew i prepared.

usually, i dun cook rice. if i do, i will cook rice, then my rice cooker have the steaming "tray". so i will steam either a small piece of fish with brocoli and carrot or minced meat with brocoli and egg.
sometimes if lazy, will cook rice.then open one tin of cambell soup boil with carrot, fish (sometimes) and broccoli then pour over the rice for inez.
 
Ting,
Wow, aldan also good hor...cos most of the time, my mil will feed char..but when i dun hv class on tue n thurs, i will cut fruits for char to eat, will let her hold e fork to poke e fruits to eat lor...dun wan her to rely on us to feed her le..

U might wan to steam egg with minced pork and tomato lor..Sometimes we steam minced pork with tofu and give charlotte eat..She likes to drink soup so we will mis her rice with soup most of e time..

Linda,
i see..ya lor, tink i shall do that..tks for e infor ya... u really can lor...bery well orgniased..hee
 
linda- wow.. so ur fridge wil be well stock up w food! i seldom cook dinner for aldan nw that he's older. only tues n thu go my mum's hse for dinner, the maid wil cook for him. if nt we eat out le. last time he at infant care, i wil bring bk the porridge if stil gt left cos throw also so wasted but nw paiseh cos he nt there anymore.
smtimes we do cook dinner like spag n wil gv aldan some too but wil dilute his w water so nt so saltish for him.
 
newbbi,
maybe you let char hold her fruits with her hand instead of fork. so far, we will just let her hold her fruits in her hand to eat. that's another way that they will enjoy feeding themselves, cos fork sometime hard to fork and they will be discourage to feed themselves.

no lah not say well organised, actually 1st mth when inez goes to ccc, if hb working, i will tabao food to share with inez...
then she keep falling sick for abt a month, then i decided that i shd cook rather than buy outside food for her.. so from then, i have been cooking loh. so kind know what to do what as followed... more like "practise make prefect kind" hahhha...

ting,
ya.. my fridge well equip with leow for inez.
cos nowaday when go outside eat, inez dun seem to wnt to eat. so maybe once in awhile go outside eat. then ask what she wants to eat loh.
cos now she can communicate with us, so much easier for us to know what she wants also.
 
Linda,
agreed lor..shall do that tonite..hehe..tink this ger of mine will play lor..Now we cutivating her the habit of wshing hands and legs if come bk from outside lor...hee

Inez knows how to tell u wat she wants to eat??
 
newbbi,
i suppose initially they will find it fun to play with. but as time goes by, they will not leow.

inez till now, loves to take her meat or whatever in pieces in her porridge with her finger to eat. we try to minimise that, but still let her do that, but of cos have to make sure she wash her hands when meal times lah.

inez can tell us what she wants. she can communicate quite well with us.
last sunday bot her to sakae to eat, i was feeding her, then half way thro, she can tell me : mummy, you eat yourself.
then she will tell us what she want to eat on the table, so we will take for her.

then on tue, again surprise me. i fetching her home from school then went into rivervale mall, stop by to look at shoes. tell her wait a while i see shoes, she can tell me: mummy, no, cannot buy shoes... my god... see how demanding she is... dunno angry or happy that she can actually say these.
 
newbbi,
ya.. we keep reminding her that she is 2 year old , big gal leow.
think also go ccc lah, more vocal now.

ting,
ya.. she can tell us what she wants.
i usually will ask what she want to eat, rice , noodle, pasta or porridge.

hi daphne,
this waiting game is not fun hor... hee...
