Travelling with Baby (under 6 months)

Yup, I have seen some organic baby foods in NTUC; have also seen Nestle there.

I haven't ventured into the milk-free products yet. I think I remember seeing one or two baby items at NTUC made with soy or goat's milk. My baby is also getting breastmilk; I just keep some Similac by Abbott on hand for emergencies since it's the only brand I am familiar with here and trust.

thanks, am definitely stocking up on a few things from here so that I least have something while I settle in and start venturing about for baby stuff in Singapore!

I would also suggest bringing some Aussie disposable nappies to get you started if you are using disposables. I was using Huggies in OZ, but have found the local Huggies terrible. I have been experimenting with other brands and so far the Fairprice home brand are the best I have found. The other good thing about Fairprice supermarkets is that you can order online and have your groceries delivered, much more baby friendly.

Sorbolene cream is hard to get, but I found tubes of it in the pharmacy in the basement of Tanglin Mall. Good luck with the move!

Thanks! How bizarre that the quality of the Huggies are not the same.... already have some Pampers shipped and some in my luggage....

Hi,

Has anyone travelled on Qantas with a car seat on board to Australia? Did you choose the bulkhead for the bassinet as well?

I already bought an infant ticket for my daughter who is 10kg to Perth and really thinking hard on upgrading the ticket to a child's fare..

The car seat that i have is Maxi Cosi Cabrio Fix rear facing.

My daughter refuses to drink anything while being cuddled on anyone except on the pram, cradle swing or in car seat. Really worried for the ears during taking off and landing.. I am so freaking out as i will be travelling alone this time. My last experience i had from a short trip i took to the Philippines.. passengers onboard were ready to kill me i think.. she cried almost the entire journey to and fro..

Any advise and experience much appreciated:))
