Parenting Guide #3 - Baby Food for Constipation

MIL highly recommend Sweet Potato Porridge if your bb is constipated. Alternatively, banana, papaya is good... Apples work on my sons as well.

Biotta (Organic) juices like Digestive Juice, Buess Juice work on my DS1 as well. Both kids and adults can drink it.

Parenting Guide #2 - Poo

Baby's poo initially is meconium... at least for 3-5 days of his initial life... thereafter, if you are breastfeeding your bb entirely, it should be of mustard colour and watery in nature... Do not panic and think that bb has a diarrhoea...

When bb starts on semi-solids or solids, the poo will change... just like R2's did yesterday... MIL started him on porridge and thus, his poo hardens...

Parenting Guide #1 - Baby Food

R2 is getting cuter... :) cute smile... same as Rossi... But Ryan is slimmer cos he doesnt wanna drink from the bottle (yes, still!)...

R2 is currently eating Brown Rice gruel... MIL bought brown rice powder mixed with Si Shen from a chinese medical hall in bedok... Reason for this rather than normal pre-grind ones sold in NTUC etc is cos this is fresher.... he likes it... MIL adds breastmilk to the gruel...

MIL has began to cook porridge and feed R2 this week.... Apparently he loves it lots... hehehe... Porridge with potato/carrots, or cauliflower, or pumpkin (those Aussie ones)...

will start him on some fruits this week...

Hmmm, wonder if it is my imagination... but seems that R2 has been calling me "mama"... lol... not once but a few times...
