anna,
paiseh lar. i oni know its OTO brand. As for the model, OTO has oni 1 type and my hb brought OSIM ( has 2 types, what king & e normal one that is abt $200 over; currently on promotion). I presume the function should be the same as what my colleague describe through the phone, "shaking effect"..
HB complaint to me that our weighing machine must be faulty cause he cant believe he is still at 71kg when many praised him has lost weight and tummy slim down. *Faint
Can you imagine? You will get real headache if your hb so crazy abt "beauty" than yourself. (hb follows my mil gene).
Many times, I have to tell him that he is lucky to be tall enough that no one knows that his waist is 33 -34 inch. (same waist length as my fil). * faint.
Ivy,
Waah! you super loaded, buy this and that for Xavier... great investment since you are going to have another one or two...
X is so guai willing to put on e belt and sit down.. if keane, haha.. he will try to push push..away from the belt. Bet you must have a big saving in the bank..
Wen,
I can fully understand how you feel.. since i been through.. still remembered that i cried all e way to the A & E. I couldn't really sleep or rest despite i was having migraine and giddiness.. Miracles to been through 72 hrs..
Hahah.. keane is a cheerful baby by natural. I mean inborn character if you believe. He loves to be praised and playful also. He also those thick skin baby that can tahan pain.
Mostly he loves to use his fake cry to bully my family members.. He will be guai if he sees his mother's face turn colour...hahah.. However, he is selfish and not willing to share with others with his toys. That's why, i want to change this very bad character he has. Eg, toys that he doesnt even play with and doesnt like at all. He will try to stop or make noise when he sees other bb touchs.
We witnessed many times and the 1st time was @ Piglet's hse where we brought the same exercisaucer and sofia was inside playing with the toys.. Immediately, his face turned black and stared @ sofia and made noise.. Hb took a hard to tell him that it is not belong to him.. *faint* Hence, i know that if i have another baby, i definitely have hard time ahead. Unlike my niece, althrough she doesn't have many toys like keane, she willingly to share with keane.
i brought 1st Safety brand but havent use yet since keane still doesnt know how to crawl. He can only crawl backward and after two or three steps, he will shout as he doesnt have the patience to go on..hhahha.
I put more pillows around keane's bedroom and clear all those small things that can fix into his mouth.. i also brought three cheap mattresses (1 already @ my ma place). I just put one more next to his bed. Maybe, you can ask ivy, cos she organised to buy bp safety gate.. not sure has she closed the bp already or not.
anastasia,
Personal opinion, your boy isnt that serious as compare to keane.From her comment (from what you have mentioned), your son definitely has a high chance to clear the blockage, thats why she required you to bring to massage every day for a wk. Once, the blockage (inner) clear, everything will ease. The powder is actually chinese herbs (medicine). She must have prescribe those herbs suitable for your bb and able to help the nose problem.
I understand the travelling time. This sinseh is good and specialist with bbs. Did you observe the steps and where are the points that her helper massage your baby? If so, you can do it yourself. Remembered every point has to massage (roll) with light force 400 times.( PS dont get frighten by the nos of rolling you have to do, it fast).
Alternately, you can go to this sinseh. also v specialist with bbs & famous.Price charge should be around 20-30.Should be closer to sk in term of the location. However, i doubt can make appointment. (Maybe you can call them to ask)..

Keane is born with sensitive nose like his father. Thereby, his noses get blocked easier than others. Mostly, he opens his mouth wide open to breathe while sleeping, he snore since day 1 at birth. (nosy bb) he also sneezes few times everyday. He also has this "nose sound" when he shouts or try to make noise. PDs said that all the above signs are common and normal for such case.
However, you have to be patience with this chinese sinseh whether to use herbs or massage as the result wont show immediately as compare to western medicine. chinese treat "root" while western can only stop pain..
It's really up to individual. Your boi is 6mths old, give a try and see how. These two sinsehs that i recommended to you are not those sinsehs trying to earn money & prolong e illness.
As for the massage, you really have to watch how the person do and press on which points. You can send me pm if you are confused with the points. I might not the expert but i will try my best to help. I also check with sinseh that i know.
