that it what friends share with me on the link of persistent cough and asthma. with some knowledge of health wellness, i believe it is a factor that contribute to it too. you might want to try chinese med to cure the root.

our hb tends to take things lightly, i know mine do at most time. it wise to can rid of JW's cough soon. it sure is not good for the lung.
 


mashy
glad to hear all is ok with you. Do take some time to rest.

hi 5 to dr Tan too. I have tried a few PDs and found him the most reassuring and attentive to date. 2 weeks ago, brought Aidan to him, and he suspected him of having microplasma,although he has no fever. He recommended putting him through a dose of antibiotics to be safe, and Aidan did recover fully within the week. His queue is a killer though, my hubby will always go and take a number first before we go down.

Rachel
just back from BKK. Share some shopping tips. Thomas the train rail tracks are really cheap, like 50% off singapore prices. Plan Toys are about 30% off too. I bought literally a box of toys back for Aidan.

Tabbieus
Thanks for following up with me on Aidan's eyes. Fully recovered now. I suspect brought on by the viral flu. Now no more blinking :>

Tracy
Congrats!!! Duncan is adorable.

Esther,
Hope leroy and renee recover soon.
 
SH
if cough for more than 4 weeks, best to see doc. remember that time JH kept coughing? in the end i saw 2 PDs over 4 times in a month. it finally stopped and the root of the problem is actually his nose. so once the nose got cured, the cough went away.

esther, sleepingdeer
hope your kids are better

mashy
good to hear that your test all ok.

durianlover
when are u moving to aus? that day hb mentioned he may wan to move to aus next time. ask me to go find out..dunno how serious.
 
actually the tests only show that my bones aren't broken. I might have a meniscus tear i.e. cartilage tear coz i still can't walk properly. Sianzzz, my next appt will only take place in 2 weeks.

Dunno how I'm going to cope tomorrow when my hb goes back to work.
 
SH - i also tink shld see a PD to get it treated... like the others said, coughing persistently weakens th elungs and eventually choy! can lead to asthma or bronchitis... my niece has been coughing for quite a long time too and when i heard it, i knew it was there.. but somehow MIL thot nth of it and says its just choking.. so aft very long,she was brot to PD and KKH diagnose as allergy airway...

Durianlover - wow wow, God is good! just within a day, J managed to get toilet trained..
happy.gif
all the best to ur relocation wor, do drop in to chat wf us!

Mashy - if like tat,will it be tough to make ur claims? but then again, its good news that ur bones are all intact!

mummies,
Thanks for your well-wishes! We're moving to outskirts of Sydney...probably 2hrs drive from Syd city centre itself. Have yet to find a place to rent. Getting my auntie who stays there to help us look for accomodation and settle in. My hb found a job there as a teacher and will start work in July. So we hope to be there by early July
happy.gif
Have yet to get the air tickets. As for me, i'll be SAHM with 2 kids...hopefully i won't go crazy. Really wonder how i'm gonna cope, esp when parents' support not there and no maid!!

god's child,
I'll return the clothes to you soon...hee Janine has outgrown most of them already! Thanks so much
happy.gif
 
Durianlover - no worries bout tat, i got no use for them now also ..hee )

Rachel - when u leaving for BKK? im leaving for BKK on 21May for a 4day trip and be taking cel with us for tis short trip to reward myself aft my exam haha... got collide in dates mah?
happy.gif


Cheng - wow, 50% sounds alot! hmmm... mabbie i can get some as xmas gifts and store away first hee.. where did u buy them? recommendation for places to shop for our kids?
 
god's child

dunno lor. My hb said if got broken bones will get more. Sigh, just hope this thing can settle quickly.

even though my leg is not broken, it has already impeded my walking. Been wheeling myself abt in my chair.

durianlover
wah, that's a big change for you. Hope u will adapt quickly there. Have u stayed there before? Like for your studies?
 
Oh dear, Mashy.. ur hb around to help u out?
Hope C get well soon.
Oh ya.. my hb is seeing Dr Yu Chun Sing in TTSH. Are u seeing the same doc?

So many tods and mummies are sick.. lost count already. Speedy recovery to ALL !!!
 
May

Nope, seeing an indian guy. My hb is only ard till today to help me. Tomorrow will be just me.
sad.gif


Did your hb do MRI? My MRI came up to $2300!!!! Hefty sum
 
mashy
oh dear, hope come C suddenly came down with a fever?

hope all your tests will show that u r ok. nothing major. when will u know whether u can claim insurance?

durianlover
wow u r moving there really soon. sometimes i dun mind hb getting job overseas then i can be SAHM..hee
 
SY

he was coughing and now fever. sianz....

Insurance can claim, just dunno whether it's a pathetic $500 or a lot of money lor. But it'll take a while. I think at least 6mths. Now agonizing what to do after that coz we'll be in debt after getting rid of this current car. Dunno if can get another car or not. Sianzzz... Wonder what's His plans for us. Too many what ifs and a lot of decisions to make.

Feeling that everything not running smoothly. Sigh, altho I'm delighted that I got out of the accident pretty ok despite the impact, the problems that's facing us now is mountain-high. Glad that my ILs have agreed to bail us out, so there's some temporary solution there. But still....sigh.
 
mashy
oh dear, hope C gets better.

i know it's harder than it sounds but try not to think too much. really thankful that u got out of this ok. but sometimes it can be quite depressing as there's so many things to deal with. at least your ILs are helpful. so look on the bright side.

thikn the priority is to make sure u have no serious injuries...
 
Mashy,
Claim as much as u can on that guy and top up on ur losses. Dun worry we will pray for speedy recovery for u and C.
 
Mamapanda
Sorry I might have miss your post. I havent been reading the thread faithfully..
Are all the stuff here already? I think I ordered the fish oil and cali bb hair detangle?

If they are all here.. I might ask Wendyl to help collect for me from HG, But I ask her for permission first. Hope I'm still in time.
Thanks

Wendyl
If u have not collect from mamapanda.. can trouble u to collect for me too. And perhaps if it's ok, I will collect from you mum's place.
Will sms u la, but scare I forget so I post here too.
Regarding the semi solid... I started our kyler around 5.5mths with rice cereal, then slowly intro like what mamachan mention above.
Now kyler is coming 9 mths, he is on 2 meals, either both porridge and cereal and porrigde.
Thank God he is so much more easiler than Kaelyn and feeding is such a breeze. Hope he keep it all the way.
I'm not starting him on 3 meals yet..while he is good with solid, not so good with milk. I still want him to drink milk as it's nutritious too. So think will keep it this way for a while.
Oh at aorund 9 mths, we started him on fish an pork, before that just veggie.

Durainlover
Happy for you that J is toilet trained and all the best in oz. Wonderful to be SAHM

God Child
COngrats.. no more exam and study. Have wonderful time w C, oh oh and get well soon.
The weather these days are crazy!

Esther
Hope 3 of you get well soon!! poor thing leroy and renee

Tracy
YOur MIL very ultimate. Jiayou with your BF and glad to know our CL very good.
SO now you like FT pumping?
Last time with kyler I was still a bit half hearted and feel very disturb whtn I pump and the kids either cry or make lotsa noise outside plus my MIL yelling.. felt I should be helping out instead. Hope by #3 come, I can fang kai :p maybe by then worst cos got 3 kids crying together.. faint.

Mashy
Hope you recover soon too.

too many post... speed read thru...dunno who I havent address...sorry if I miss out.

Re: sick bb
kaelyn had flu, cough and fever last week too and Thankfully recover fast after seen PD. Kyler was alright thru out and I thought perhaps he is not affected afterall...
Haizz.. since ytd.. the signs are coming, he has runny nose and today cough and runny nose badly. mucus drool non stop, so he cannot escape somehow, hope he recover well and soon.
Think his body has been fighting and fighting against this virus from jiejie for past 1 week, finally still cannot overcome.
But I guess it's alright as his immune system will be stronger after these fight.
 
SH,
I've PMed u.

Cookie,
Ooops....I have just collected from mamapanda on sat. Ben also recently caught the flu bug from gor gor after tahan-ing for 1 week. But he seemed to recover faster than E. Yalor, hopefully their immune system will be stronger after all these attacks.
Thanks for the reply on weaning! Gid u start Kyler on 2 meals a day when he turned 9 mths or earlier? I tink I will delay fish till after 2 yr old cos very scared B will be like his gor gor with sensitive skin.
Yes, really thank God our #2s not as fussy as #1.

Re: hot weather
duno what happen to the weather..suddenly become so hot that dun feel like going out..just want to stay at home.
Damien's body is warm and his lip is pretty red but lucky he is not having fever..so scare if he fall sick.

mashy,
is the car beyond repair? How about insurance claim for the car if it will cost alot to repair.
I remember my Bil's car got flooded in JB and it was beyond repair or too expensive to repair.
He manage to get almost 60K claim back on the car. The car is almost 1 yr old.
Since then he did not buy any car coz of expensive insurance. Even his current car was put under my HB's name.
Funny rite, he got a wife, yet he did not want to put the car under her name.
 
wenyl,
have you started ben on semi solids? i tried over the weekend but i guess tyler is not ready yet. he keeps sticking his tongue out, don't know how to push the food to the back of his throat yet. will try again this weekend.

durianlover,
so envious to hear that you will be migrating to aust. I have always loved staying overseas. Too bad, I married a true blue singaporean! :p Do keep in touch with us and hope to still see you here
happy.gif


cookie,
I think for your #3, maybe you want to try to hand express like me. So you won't have the problem of crack nipples. It's really not as difficult as we think. And it doesn't take me any longer than the pump. Hope you will be able to succeed in bf your #3. Don't worry about neglecting ur kids while you pump. I used to feel that way but now I don't anymore. Coz I make up to them by reading and playing with them afterwards. It's not how MUCH time you spend with them, it's how you spend your time with them. Quality over quantity
happy.gif
But be warned, it can be quite tiring...
 
babylon
sometimes they will assess the car and determine whether can repair or not. so in this case, probably it was assessed as beyond repair.

re #2
seems like #2 are less fussy? hee thatis good news for me. prob we less gan cheong abt #2 as well?

re weather
it has been so unbearable that we are like turning on the aircon all the time...utilities sure go up this month.
 
SH,

Due to experience. I think you should at least bring JW for a check. prolong cough may cause future problems and not good for the lungs too.
 
Re: Hot weather
These few nites r terrible! We started switching on the aircon for Ben's room too. Only for 1-2hrs to cool down the room. After tat, he kept waking up in sweaty shirt. I m really tempted to leave the aircon on thru out the nite man! Really zombified with 2 waking / crying bbs!

SY,
Guess u r somewat rite.... we r less kancheong n more experienced bah when comes to #2. But comparing when E was a bb, he was really a colicky bb. Harder to handle than Ben. Ben can sit n wait for pple to play with him. Always ready with a smile. Whereas E is v restless n wailing at the slightless thing. I remembered I cant even put him down to go pee pee.
sad.gif


Aileen,
Yup we tried giving Ben rice cereal over the weekends. 1st time on Sat, he din know how to swallow, pui most of it out. Yday was better, smacking his lips away when we put in the rice cereal. This morning, I fed him n his mouth was eagerly opened whenever I bring the spoon near. But the cereal still comes out n I have to keep spooning it back into his mouth.
 
Wenyl - same here!!! we used to oni on the aircon for 1hr to cool the room, but now we need it for the ntie til at east 3-4am... its HB who cant tahan whole nite aircon so he will wake up to off it, else cel always ends up wf a wet tee which i thot is not so gd for her lungs... sigh.. i have even taken to on the aircon for her naps so tat she can sleep longer.. wf no aircon, she wakes in an hour and sweating.. but wf aircon, its 2.5hrs..
 
Aileen
thanks.. yes I will try again, even with hand expression for #3, hope it works.
SOmetimes it's of the guilt, but most of the time is like MIL is very busy with kids screaming and crying and this and that while I stay in the room to pump.. stress from the inside
happy.gif


Wendyl
oh ok no problem.. got to seek help from other mummies liao.
yeah.. hb just told me this am, kyler is alrright to take med too. when he see the spoon coming his mouth open
happy.gif
, no struggle too. Hope he will be so guai guai all the way.
 
Hi mummies,

Anyone has any inform on MMI Sengkang? It's a childcare.

My sister is considering putting them there. Any info will be appreciated.

Thanks.
 
Anyone here under Dr Douglas Ong for gynae? I've decided to do the HCG blood test at 1230 later instead of waiting till nex week to do the urine test. The suspense is killing me.. If I[m not preggy, will need to do other tests on kidney n liver to see what is causing my fluid retention the past 2 weeks. Starting this morning, started to get alittle nauseous.. I'll really be quite surprised if it turns out negative
sad.gif
 
wenyl,god's child,
eh...i doing confinement but sleeping in aircon room thruout the night. :p

cookie,
yupz, now i'm full-time pumping. 3hourly in the day and 4hourly at night so i get more sleep. i fail in direct latch again...

Aileen,
I remember you also have abundance of milk. Wanna ask you, will the supply stabilize over time? Now i gotta freeze 400+ml per day! And my breasts are soooo huge they are sooo ugly! I dun like seeing myself in mirror these days.

Mamapanda,
good news?
 
babylon

ya, the weather is crazy these days. So hot. We've also started switching on the air con.

Still dunno yet. THe car will cost abt 15k to repair. That's almost half the market value of the car.

ya, your BIL weird. Or his wife got no license?
 
Post on behalf of CL - as she is busy training her new helper
happy.gif

Re: Collection of items from Mamapanda
Those who need CL to collect on behalf please respond, so far on the list :
-Flo
-Cookie (Thanks CL and Flo in advance
happy.gif
)
-?? there is someone else but CL forgot was it.
 
babylon,
my SIL also got license but never drive at all. Her hubby travels often for work and during that time, the car will be sitting at home. And petrol is fully paid by his co.! My SIL will then trouble us and my other BIL to ferry her kids to school and ferry her and all of them back home every evening.

I kept asking hubby to bug her to drive! Anyway from her home to MIL place is only like 10mins drive! Instead of inconveniencing us whenever her hubby is not around, which is quite often lately!
 
good news?
Gotta wait 1-2 working days for results.. well better than waiting for another 7-10 days to do urine test. Let u all know once I get the results
happy.gif
 
Mamapanda,
Good Luck to you! Share ur good news soon, okie?
Oh ya, did I miss anything about the vitamins collection? Is it ready to collect?

Mashy,
Yes, blood test is faster. I dunno how long in advance can u do blood test. Oh ya.. now is my 2WW time. Hope got good news to share too.
 
mamapanda,
Just dropped u an sms. My gynae was Dr Douglas Ong. He's great! Let me know if u need any info and looking forward to hearing good news from you
happy.gif


may,
what's 2WW?? Sounds like 2nd world war!
 
may
yes, they're ready for collection since last week.. posted twice..

flo, rena, krissie, sl
need your acc numbers to refund u monies for the cancelled LV items.
 
mamapanda

ai yah, didn't know that. If not I would have done that coz I also dunno whether it was a miscarriage or normal menses. This menses came earlier than expected, and has lasted longer than usual. By right, I would have finished everything by 5th day. But now into 9th day still have blood.

And, my hb was so sure that i was preg. Too bad. He said I was behaving the same way when I was preg with C.
 
mashy
I suggest u take a home urine test to make sure its not an etopic pregnancy. Otherwise, better to go to gynae for checkup also
 
Yes Durianlover,
This is the waiting game. It is either a Positive or all back to normal, got to wait for next cycle.

Mamapanda,
Can PM me ur hp no. and ur address? Sorry I have missed out the collection post.

Is the blood test ex? If it is not, quite worth trying.. the 2 weeks is really a torture.

Mashy,
I used the ovulation strips to track ovulation. This time round it doesn't work, so I observe the discharge instead. Not sure can get another Jan baby or not. See how it goes.
 
mamapanda

haven't thot of ectopic. Etopic will get pain on my right correct?

May
I don;t need OPKs to tell me when I'm ovulating. Dunno consider myself lucky or not. Ever since I have C, I get ovulation pains. So I know when I'm ovulating. Don't need OPK. Maybe that's why my hb was so sure will strike this month.

Ya, 2ww is a torture. If there's a way to find out earlier, will be good.

But guess it's also bliss not to know for my case now. Think I'll be even more devastated if it was a miscarriage.
