Michele's First Day
Michele enjoyed her first day as long as the teacher sang songs, told stories, otherwise, she's a cry baby!!! Sigh. Looks as if they will take some time to adjust. On the 2nd day, mummie was hard hearted and left her alone for 2 hours. She cried till she slept. Ha! Again will join in if teacher sang and told stories... hahaha.

<font color="0000ff">anastasia,
If u really wanna jab your boy, I'll say take pneumo first as the disease (if contracted) is life-threatening.
Joyce,
Has Rayne recovered already? How's he's adapting at MMI?
<u>Gathering on 12 JAN (Sat)</u>

Well slowly. Now my girl is rejecting school. When she sees the school gate, she will cry, Michele goes home... go home. Sigh. I think I will need to bear with it.
Cheri
I think age has a part to play in separation anxiety, however, having said that I think that being prepared is also very important.

gab,
So you still encourging her to go in to sch despite her cries?
X had viral fever since Sun nite. Today cross fingers that the fever finally break. This means that he haven been in school since Friday afternoon ( escape at lunch time!).
I dunno how to adjust him back to sch esp he was already not too happy abt it in the 1st few days and now with this week of break, i think we gotta re-start the whole sch process again!

cheri,
X quite like the sch and playing there too..we did a lot of visit and talks but STILL, come to the actual leaving of him there, it will still take time to adjust.

<font size="+1">Research shows children below the age of 6 should not eat too much of certain types of fish
<font color="ff0000">P</font></font>ARENTS have been warned to feed young children small fish rather than larger species to avoid a build up of dangerously high levels of mercury in their growing bodies.
Research published in the Medical Journal of Australia shows that children below the age of 6 should not eat too much of certain types of fish.
The report, co-authored by Dr Stephen Corbett, who heads the centre for population health at Sydney West Area Health Service, found that <u>fish is good for children’s nutrition so long as it is the right type in the right quantity</u>.
"Two to three portions a week and small fish for small fry", Dr Corbett said.
<font color="0077aa"><font size="+1">"Even at relatively low levels, mercury can affect children’s neural and mental development"</font></font>, he said.
Dr Corbett examined three cases in Sydney where children aged between 15 months and two years had elevated mercury levels after eating up to five times the recommended dietary intake of fish.
The children had been fed congee. When the children stopped eating fish, their mercury levels dropped.
New South Wales State Health Minister Reba Meagher said the research showed that too much fish can be detrimental.
The NSW Food Authority’s chief scientist, Dr Lisa Szabo, said <u>there are only six types of fish parents need to worry about — shark, broadbill, swordfish, marlin, orange roughy and catfish</u>.
"In part it’s because they’re bigger. But they’re also longer lived and they’re predatory fish, which means that they eat a lot of small fish so that’s why they tend to accumulate the mercury", she said.

Hi Mummies,
busy with works these days, didnt log in for quite some time.
Seems like some toddlers are falling sick due to bad weather. k and my nieces all kinda cough like hell.. my ma gets more pananoid than me, keep instead me to bring k to see pd today where he only on medicines 2days; stated the medicines didnt help. haha..
Ivy & Gabby,
Pardon me for kpo, i thought some allow free trial before billing? (thats my colleagues & friend told me).. few comment that have to try few times until their toddlers get used to go to school... if not, must wait for few mths later then try again... dun give up hope..
Most importantly, their health..
take care..
best wishes to all "happy lunar new year" (in advance) in case i too busy to log in ..

Hi Ivy,
MMI's rates for full and half day not much diff. However dun think i will place him on full day, coz i) R needs his sleep thu the school have 2 hrs afternoon nap, its soooo noisy there! 2) dun find the food suitable for him yet. also i noticed they tend to give heaty things like biscuits, conflacks etc n their servings are little, 3) hiaz...boy does not like school
Summary of his adventure
first day, he was playing so mummy sneaked out. since teacher no call me tot everything was ok n stayed out for more than one hr. ended when i went back in, he is almost hysterical
afternoon nap, he got nightmare....
2nd day he refused to let me go out of sight. sticked to me and din join the others. when i cant stand it, rush to toilet, he was screaming n crying when i return and refused to let the teacher touch him after tat. afternoon nap, nightmare again
today, refused to wake up and change his PJ. my hub dropped him at school and he cried..mummy cant go coz got to work...
heartpain to see him like tat

oh dear, can really feel for u & ur boy...looks like our few tots here have pretty bad separation anxiety, makes me kinda nervous now abt sending her to playgroup too esp since i know my ger is the clingy, cautious & slow to warm up type...guess no choice, just gotta bite the bullet & hope the phase passes fast.
