Have email you mummylian, did you receive?
didi, I am not sure leh, but there are really a lot of parents bringing children there for tui na. I saw parents whose kids have problems also went there for tui na. I think it helps more or less. Dash went for tui na for 4 consecutive days liao...hope it helps.
I bought the colostrum, but not sure if useful leh...I asked the padetrician, she told me not proven to be useful, the only thing proven is vitamin C, so I changed the vitamin C syrup for dash to a more expensive one, haven't let him try yet. But will let him take vitamin C and colostrum everyday, hope that helps. Have decided to bring him for tui na twice a month (actually the chinese physician told us for bao jian, must bring every week, but really lazy, the queue is super long there).
fairylander, I rented from http://rent-a-toy.com/
quite ex, for the playhouse I rented, 2 weeks $45.

mummylian, nowadays all types of virus and germs around the world, like hong kong. I dunno, but think its best to leave your younger children like your newborn girl at home leh.
Have wanted to go hongkong in June, but then decided against it, maybe going cruise, safer.
Just my opinion...

mummylian,
wah, steady ah, can plan for short trip now during ur confinement. who'll take care ur kids when u go for trip?? or bring all 4 going together?
i'd like to go for a short trip too,bangkok good enuf... but no one take care of the kids, bring the elder one is not much prob but bring the younger baby is tough. so, still a dream for me to go trip. maybe when my girl turn 18 mths then will be easier to go.
ur gathering is on 5th Apr is it? em... i wish i could join. hav to check w my hubby first. i would like to meet w all the frends here as well , since we've been chatting to each other so long.

thanks 4 the invitation. but hubby travelling then, & it may b difficult 4 me cos of the timing. ws now naps @2pm.. but if all mommies gg, tempting leh
btw, went Ho Chi Minh city last mar. not recommended to bring kids. cos the air is q bad. we got to wear sunglasses, not cos of the sun but more to protect our eyes frm the dust.
good 4 short & relax cos the stuff there q cheap & makan is good! later i ask hubby on the name of a nice restaurant there..must go try 4 authentic vietnamese food..yummy
oso, dun bother to change viet dong. bring US$. u gg F&E or on tour? if gg F&E, rem to book the taxi frm the counter INSIDE the airport (after u clear custom). think it's abt US$5 or US$6 to bring u to hotel in town. my colleague who missed the counter, went outside to look 4 cab & kenna 'chop' head!

I'm afraid I can't attend your youngest girl's baby shower on 5th Apr as I have a family gathering to celebrate my sis' twins birthday on that day too. My sis twins bd falls on the 6th Apr. I'm sure that day will be a joyful day for your family.
DM
I don't mind lobang you as what kkf said but I'm not heading that way on 5th Apr.
Jane
Bring your maid and mum along for holiday, then you can really relax and enjoy, otherwise, you will be busy over Siang.....equally tired. You can stay where Hope stayed previously ~~ Holiday Inn, Batam where you can book a 2 bed-room apartment. This hotel is good as most rooms (be it 1 or 2 bedroom) comes with a living hall. Lots of space for Siang to move around.
Ferry ride is about an hour only and the coach ride from the Waterfront port to Holiday Inn is less than 5 mins.....less travelling time is best for babies/kids.

hi mummies,
cat stil down wif fever but not so high as last week.yesterday was really dramatic.brought her to see pd at tmc,did some blood test n urine test,urine is normal but blood test show tat she got infection,doc said probably is soar throat coz her throat is red.so we were heading home after tat.wen we almost reach home her finger start bleeding non stop i think b4 the nurse poke too deep wen she draw blood from her finger.then i quickly rush to nearby clinic to see doctor.while the doctor trying to put bandage on her finger she pass a lot motion and kena her pants really "want my life".

hi fairylander,
yes.. the nurses tend to poke too deep. the last time bryan had a blood test done at his heels at KKH, he started bleeding profusely the moment i took off his plaster, which was like nearly 5 hours after the prick... i applied pressure immediately but the bleeding wouldnt stop. in the end, i had to use a waterproof plaster to plaster the prick area.. imagine the shock we all go through esp cos bryan has anemia of prematuriy.
anyway, fever is a terrible thing to go through.. prob lots of sleeplessness for mummy. take care fairylander.

I really bought plenty of books for dash, must stop must stop!
Dash really likes to read, at night or in the morning, he will ask "yao read books ma?" "yao!"
Mummies who have children of 2 years old, do your children have the tendency to ask and answer themselves? Dash has this strange habit of if he wants something he will ask "want to eat bread?" "want" instead of saying directly "i want to eat bread". Like if he sees a plaster on his leg, he will say "Who paste it for you?" "daddy right?" that kind instead of saying "daddy pasted the plaster for me!"
Not sure if it is normal???

hello kkf
i have a niece she is 3 years old now (used to be taken care by my mum but now she is in child care).
i remember when she was around 2 years old. when someone come back from outside, she will say "Wo hui lai ler" instead of "ni hui lai ler". and yes, she do the sort of ask and answer question too... sometime she will ask, "who eat that" "xx eat that papa or mama" ... self answer and question.
