Milk Formula

Before Jaiden reaches 1 year old, we fed him with Nestle NAN HA 1 milk formula as Dr. Koe said he has minor allergy to the normal cow's milk. Since this milk has gone through a special way of processing it's protein, so it's suitable for babies with minor allergy. However, Jaiden does not like this milk formula all along because it tastes a bit bitter. No choice... he has to bear with it since this milk suits him best at that moment.

We switched him to Pediasure Complete on the day he reached 1 year old. He likes it a lot!!! That was the 1st ever time where he finished 7oz of milk by himself (ya.. I mean, he hold the bottle by himself and finished the milk in it). Of course, we are very happy that he likes this milk so much. However, Ngo Jeh said he eats a lot too during day time. Hence, his tummy is getting bigger and bigger, and face became chubbier now. Afraid that he might turn into a fat boy, we have decided to switch him to Mamil Gold Step 3. We started him on Mamil Gold Step 3 on 2nd November. He shows signs of disliking the milk... sigh....

Finally, this morning he had a big tight slap from mummy at his thigh. He doesn't want to finish his milk and making a LOT of FUSS!!! This made mummy really angry, and gave him one tight slap on his thigh. He cried out sooo loudly. No matter how we manja him, how we play with him, he still doesn't want to drink the left over milk. He left 2.5oz out of 5oz okay... it's half of his consumption. Ended up, he won!!! I think he knew that daddy & mummy is angry at him, hence he did not make much noise in the car (on the way to Ngo Jeh's house).

Shall we stop feeding him in the morning? This kind of incident really spoils my mood of the day!

Aiyor..let him eat lar. If he doesn't eat, then only you should be worried. Kids will have grow spurt so they eat a lot during this period but it doesn't last long. How long have you been giving him pediasure?

He had 2 tins of Pediasure. Ya... decided to let him continue with Pediasure after he finishes the current Mamil Gold. I think Mamil causes him the rashes on his forehead. We start seeing some rashes on his forehead after feeding him Mamil for 1 week. I think Mamil will finish in a couple of days more. What formula are you feeding Ethan?
