Augustmum,
I believe for TCM, they strictly don approved such goodies.. FOr nat she also cannot drink liang too. Guess all these will trigger cough & lead to asthma in long run especially those with bronchitis history. I guess no matter how best to seek the doctor advise accordingly for kids health as different kids differently.

white lady,
my son also has dinner at about 5 and last milk feed at about 8pm. He manages to sleep thru' out.
I think you really have to let him cry and vomit and still persist on not giving him milk. When he cries at nite, just ignore. If he vomits, just wipe and then let him go back to bed. The first few nites will be tough but after a while, it will be ok when he finally gets the message.
This is how we train our boys. Hope it help.
Just a note, no matter what, the parents are the one with power. Must not let a 2-year-old dictates what he wants.

Found them online on tokomama com. Just burnt my pocket. Not sure if cheaperor more expensive than stores or from oversea but too lazy to go around searching.
however, if anyone has better deal or doing a bulk puchase, must tell me cos zac's crazy over thomas puzzles and trains and he spends such a long time over it and thus free me lotsa time to do my stuff.

Augboyz,
I think I know which one you are talking about. I think it's the floor puzzle, 24-piece. You should try the puzzles. My boy surprised me too by fixing them himself.
Tokomama is more expensive? Oops, just bought some from them cos the prices are rather close to what I paid (for the thomas puzzles) at Carrefour.
Btw, you have any online toys shop to recommend?

piyo and augustmum,
Justin used to get lots of Thomas toys but he has never taken a fancy to them. However, after attending a Xmas party lately where my friend's boys has many Thomas toys and since my sis bot him a Thomas shampoo, he was suddenly addicted to Thomas Engine stuff. He got 1 Thomas puzzle in a box shaped like a train before and he also enjoyed fixing. There was a period when he just turned 2 that he was so interested in fixing puzzles. He was fixing puzzles almost at his every waking hour. But his Daddy splurged on some expensive puzzles from Growing Fun the moment he knew Justin was into puzzles. Although expensive, I realised Growing Fun puzzles are more durable, at least Justin can't bend them.
Now I intend to get Thomas Engine books for Justin as he suddenly developed an interest on reading before bedtime.
I wished all families a very happy and merry christmas.....and most importantly stay healthy.

racoon,
ya, we also realised the more ex. ones last longer cos they are thicker. Zac is also very interested in fixing puzzles that we, like yr hubby, started splurging and buying more and more for him. The moment he completed a certain number of pieces, we would be tempted to get another one of more pieces. Now, the no.of boxes of puzzles we have are rather absurd and we kept asking ourselves, at how many pieces should we stop.

jas,
you can find cheap puzzles(less than $4) at toysrus, kiddy palace, popular, metro etc. However, these puzzles tend to bend easily and the sides tend to break.
I like Melissa and doug puzzles which could be found in Toysrus but they cost more than $10. The thomas puzzles I got are also hard enough. I got another one from pasar malam, also very lasting.
If you want 6 to 15 piece puzzles, AMK Hub NTUC sell Bob the builder, New MacDonald and Barney puzzles at $1.90. These are also very durable.

TOILET TRAINING
Can anyone share any of your tods toilet trained yet? Which method did you use and how long it took? Any advise?
jas,
Wen 2 kids cry, no need to stress who to attend to first becos instinctly, we settle the one making the louder noise first, haha. No choice u hav to let ur hb or another caregiver take care of one of them. btw, U got ur maid yet?
Sibling jealousy and later sibling rivalry is wat u will be facing wen no.2 comes along.

sounds like diaper rash.. u need to use higher zinc oxide content when diaper rash occurs.. jadelle last time got kanna before. what we do iz to switch to apply ALOT of desitin creamy, and every hour, we apply calendula cream to sooth it.. plus aloe vera gel, pure one.
And we stop her wearing pull up pants/ diapers and only wear normal 100% cotton panties (make sure inside got no seams that can irritate the private parts), at least until the rash is gone..
need to air her butt lor..

leobbsmom,
The pimples could it be fungus? my ger had it last time n doc says it's fungus so got to take note about hygiene. From the pimple stage, it will spread into a pink patch.
jas n leobbsmom,
thanks for sharing about potty training, think i need an action plan cos now wen we go out n go public toilets, Kaefer claim he wants to go too, although his diaper is already wet.
those mummies who had a gathering,
anyone took any pixs? do post some pixs ley.

wow~ I missed out the gathering
I think my son will definitely join in the "NO!!", "IT'S MINE!!", "MINE!!", "DON'T!!"...etc. squabble hehehe~
About potty training, zheng is 95% trained. In child care he is able to tell teacher tt he need to visit the toilet to pee or poo. Even after I fetch him from school n back to ah ma's house, he is able to do so too, occasionally still accidents, pee on the floor, then say "OH! So wet!" then continue to use his feet to play with the "water" -_-"
How I trained him? I let him put on an underwear with Bob the Builder picture behind. Told him if need to pee have to tell me, cannot pee on Bob the Builder otherwise he will be very sad. 1st day he pee in his 7 underwears within an hour *faintz* After i sort of trained him on couple of weekends on n off, he sort of got the idea. Then I told the school I m in the midst of potty training him, they helped too. But now during weekends i still let him wear diaper coz i lazy haha~
