Milk

jedamum:
Quite true, my son always look for me when he want to on the computer to play game. But other time, stick with his mom :roll:
all these will change when the kid is slightly older...who knows better about computer, PSP etc than the good old dad?ChiefKiasu:
Yah hor... that's why it takes a mum to know all these things... we daddies are always doing catch-up.

My daughter, now p1, LUUUURRVES milk. She can drink milk all day and not a drop of water.
I wonder though, does fresh milk make kids fat? Or is it true that kids need some more fat in their diets anyway for healthy growth? But if so, is drinking lots of fresh milk overdoing it?
My DD only relatively recently "decided" that low fat milk is healthier. I don’t really mind either way. My DW calls low fat milk "Abnormal Milk" (and you must say it with a tone dripping with contempt). -

Yes, abnormal milk tastes horrible. I will stick to full cream milk, the way milk should be. At the most I cut down on fat elsewhere.
Actually, I would like to drink milk everyday too but then, my DD will complain that I \"use up\" HER milk, and DH will complain about having to replenish more often.
So I end up drinking only when my DD cannot, e.g., coughing, stomach ailments, etc.

Who say????!?!? I'm more concerned that the milk doesn't expire - everytime buy one packet so expensive, must \"buy 2 for discount\", only means that we have to finish more in the same time. -

So as you can see, super_dad, adults also drink milk....and in our family, it's first come first served.

Heyya guys,
My P2 is like that too!
Ya, quite costly if the milk doesnt come
with discount. I personally prefer those
fresh chilled ones, where the cheese are..
Hubs thinks that is one heck of a milk
investment. He wud rather get those
unchilled $1+ kind and wud buy a few
to prove a point. ( Cos the nicely chilled
ones are like $3+ usually. Cheapest times
oso about $2.90.
By the way, i dunno abt the \"abnormal thingy\"
but it does taste weird and waaayy less creamy.
Milk shud taste like milk. Creamy and yummy..
PS : My hubs complains of the replenishing too... I tell you, with all
this housework, i sure need more milk less i get osteoporosis (???)
and crack my spine while lifting the laundry poles, esp with jeans on
them.. -
you two are so cute. Milk is good. I used to drink one gallon a week when I was in Uni. Now I love to mix with 3in1 tea or coffee half cup water half cup milk :love: DS also love liquid milk and keep asking for more whenever it is served.
But milk from milk powder is another thing. I hate the smell of DS's powdered milk and I think he dislike it too. But then it is suppose to be nutritions with all those DHA, SA, GA added in, right? So every night is a cat and mouse game with him running away at the sight of the milk... -
Heyya mincy,
My K2 also lurves the cat and mouse with those
milk powder thingy, but with certain brands only.
she doesn’t like how some of them has that fatty
oil layering on top of the milk… and the fact that
she does not like milk to be served too warm,
its kinda hard to avoid that…
So, as long as she wants to drink it we follow only
lah. She’s currently on DUGRO in chocolate flavour.
PS : She’s a shortie. So, i suppose as long as she
consumes milk, shud be ok right?
What’s your opinion on flavoured formulae…? -
hi hi buds,
my boy also a shortie… which make the grandparents worried hence the milk continues I read somewhere that as long as they are having a balance diet, don need to force them if they don’t like.
Never try flavored milk with him though. been using Enfalac for different age group since he was a baby. But someone recently recommend PediaSure and we got the classic vanilla flavor to try. Have not tried it yet as we were waiting for him to finish his big tin of Enfalac before opening it up…though. -
Heyya mincy,
My shortie reali short leh.. Next year P1 some more.
Dun think uniform got size. Dun think she can carry
her bag load of P1 books even.. heheee..
Everywhere we go, people get so amused that she
can speak so well being such a small baby-ish girl.
People been asking me, which playgroup your girl
goes to? We oso want to put.. can talk so well!
When she wants to read her books in the train, i
get wide-eyed stares from commuters and they
never fail to ask which phonics centre i put her in.
The usual question i get wud be, \"Wah, so small
can read so well. My ah-boy now K2 still cannot
read.. Yours can read so clear some more. How
old ah? 2+ or 3yrs?\" Then, you'll hear my girl
saying, \"Ehehem, i am 5 yrs old actually... going
to be 6 this year..\" :lol: :lol: Ooh, she's very
offended. She ever asked us how come she is
very short. We told her must try drinking more
milk... help build up strong bones and teeth with
the calcium.
Hospital started her on Enfalac from birth onwards.
She was fully breastfed, cos i stayed at home after
delivering her. (Had to stay home, ehemm..) So,
milk back then was like a buffet table for her...
Anytime... Anywhere... Open 24-7 some more.
On off occasions where we slip in formulae intake,
we went from Enfalac to Neslac 1 followed by
Neslac 3+. Her elder sista oso the same. But the
size, fuyoh... poles apart.
So, hubs was quite stressed see her so tiny like that.
She came to this world quite big, bigger than her sista
in fact.
We kept encouraging her to drink milk, various kinds
that she was willing to try. We let her choose.. In the
end, to not have an entire shelving cabinet full of the
variety of milk powder, the sista offered to help mei-mei
finish all the milk! Only up till today, mei-mei is now
willingly requesting the Chocolate Dugro for her milk
intake and nothing else. We have no issues with her
daily meals, she eats fine. Thank goodness for that!
So, hopefully this current milk intake will help boost
her growth. And she has abt 10mths more to go...
to grow with Dugro!
PS : We were given the trial sachets of milk powder
by our family doctor. Gave us the vanilla and choc,
but that time different brand. Thats when my tiny one
found out she had a choice of flavours. She didn't
reali fancy the vanilla one tho.. she said it smelt too
strong even before drinking. Sigh.. Children nowadays,
huh.. This is what happens lah when children have choices.
Heheh.. Last time we just down whatever we're given...
No questions asked. Dun dare to ask oso! :!:
