Sibling rivalry:

Brenda,
I decided to coach Alicia myself first, and probably get a coach for her next year when she turns 5. Alicia can blow bubbles, and submerge herself in the water already. She still lack confidence in removing her arm float, but I am taking a step at a time.
Giggler,
Your link is blank leh?
Brenda, Ruffy, Giggler,
Adrian is the one that bullies Alicia most of the time. I guess when it comes to siblings rivalry, a lot depends on the situation, and how we balance between reprimanding the siblings. For example, we will tell one off, and will also make known that if he/she does the same thing, he/she will be reprimanded as well. Got it?
I think spending time alone with each of the kids is also important.
hoho,
Wah, long time never see your posting
. Congrats to P. ZP will be featured in CNA tomorrow at 930pm.

pigletz,
Oh NO!! I don't read the chinese papers.... how did it happen?

Pvl,
The newspaper stated that she's not feeling quite well on early monday morning and have diarrhea, but didn't go see doc till noon. Doc prescribe some medicine but she developed fever after that.
At about late afternoon, her hubby decided to send her to KKH, but it's was too late. Admitted to ICU and she started vomitting. By then, bb is already gone and soon after, she pass away too. Seems like her lung is bleeding when she pass away.

Giggler,
Yes, it's so sudden. That is why we all so sad.
KKH still investigating the cause of her death. Report not out yet.
But for all preg mummies, please please. If you are not feeling well, even slightly, please go visit your gynae. I think if she have visited gynae early morning, things could be different.

My mum showed me the papers y'day. It did mention that the wife did not visit the gynae regular but claimed that the wife has always been ok. I am not sure if the wife has gone for her regular gynae visit. The problem could have been detected earlier.
However, i got to admit that it is scary. Sometimes i oso feel like skipping my gynae visit. Nothing major, gynae just do some scans, urine tests and that's it. $80+ gone every month.

Hello mummies, been mia for very long bec going thru job transition. Now can finally sit down and post bec my sis brot my girls out to my mum's plc to play with them. Changed job about 4 months ago and been very busy and stressed at work. Have to OT almost every day and sometimes even have to bring home work to do. Dunno too stressed or what...worked 4 months already sick twice. Been down with stomach flu since middle of wed nite and have to be on MC for 2 days. Imagine i work 4 months already MC 3 days dunno what impression i give leh...
If got any gatherings, keep me informed as i doubt i can catch up with you guys as often i want to in forum. In my new company, our access is monitored
then at nite sometimes return home late or got work to do also difficult/tired to read thru postings.
Mummies who have given birth, Congras! Seems quite a few got 3rd ones already.
A's daddy, my family was indeed at JP last sunday so maybe you really saw me. Seems like you still can't really recognise me hor?

Pigletz,
I read that article as well. It is really sad. I am curious what went wrong? I guess some form of complication set in through viral infection.
Ruffy,
We cannot imagine bringing Adrian along into the cinema, I think he will be screaming away.
Brenda,
Start with getting the kids to have water confidence. This is very important fundamental before learning any swimming or water survival skills. They must be comfortable with water first.
QSG,
I must apologise since I din get to see you often, so still cannot register your image in my mind. Your job looks stressful leh, must bring back work to do. I always remind myself not to bring work back home - occasionally must tele-con in the night- so this one bo-pian, otherwise, I prefer not to work at home.

Brenda

Brenda, Ruffy, Giggler, Alicia's daddy
Sibling rivalry. Chen Chen seize opp to complain dat Png Png is naughty. Png Png screams when any1 in my hse carries Chen Chen (when I m not available otherwise he doesn't want any1 else) When he gets carried n Chen Chen got dwn, he look @ Chen Chen wif a victory grin.
Pigletz
Oh gosh, my hair stand when I read wat u wrote abt your colleague's wife It's a great blow to him.
Giggler, Pigletz

Koala, yah... I noticed that abt Elijah when he was younger too. Think all #2s have this competitiveness in them. Don't worry... when he is older & can play better with chen chen, it will get better. Elijah & Ethan now can communicate & play role-playing together... share toys etc. I can see that now Elijah looks up to Ethan & copies his every move. hahaha...
re: #1
Do u guys realise that #1 is getting quite imagiative and started to play "bluff" games with us? They are definitely more independent now.
Ethan used to cry by 9pm when I am working late. Now he tells me "Mommy, u can work late. I won't cry. Don't worry."... & if I don't get his hint, he will say "Mommy, I want u to work late. I don't want u to come home so early. I want to play with my toys longer." hahaaa... what a big hint.
Oh... & he has also started bluffing. He will tell me he don't know what he did in school... imagining... "I go to school eat breakfast, keep the school bag & water bottle, then sit down on the floor. next I don't know what happen I rub my eyes, wake up & I am in the school bus going home." Then he gives me that grin. Faintz... till now, everyday he refuses to tell me what he does in school.
Then the other day, my maid told me he told her "Let's bluff mommy. U don't call mommy. We go downstairs to cycle bicycle & don't tell her. Then when we see her in the LRT, we quickly run home." Can u imagine! My 4 yr old is teaching/instigating my maid to lie to me!! Faintz... I can't imagine what he will do next.
Ruffy, relax... all kids grow differently. I also can see the difference in Elijah & Ethan. Ethan is more mature & quiet type... whereas Elijah learns very fast but still very babyish.

Ruffy,
Dun worry, Adrian still cannot form 1 complete sentence. He is slower than Alicia in language/speech, but faster in fine motor skills.
Boys are still boys. Adrian also spoilt things at home.
Emily,
Adrian also imitates Alicia, good and bad. Alicia is into pretending games, but not so much about bluffing lor. Guess gals are more sensible?
