YY,
How come got housefly at work??? I recommend this very good housefly card sticker from daiso. $2 for 5 long pieces. I put them in my garden under rain and shine and they continue to work well! Stuck a few lizards, a gecko, tonnes of whiteflies and many miscellaneous insects. The name is "Powerful Fly Adhesive Sheet". So far, I have only seen it at Daiso at Singapore Plaza though.

wah. i am watching 'in the womb'. WAh.. do u know that sharks.. have numerous embryos during gestation but will only have one live young when borned? reason being. this live young.. will eat .. yes.. literally attack and eat other siblings of his/her to ensure his/her own survival and then in eating those debris.. the surving embryo has a steady supply of food for the rest of the gestation period!!! wah.. and the mother shark will not feel anything one leh.. wah.. makes me realise how passive/fragile human gestation can be..
jialat.. distracted from grading liao.. argh..

kaexin,
no la, today i quite awake and alert liao. hahaha.. u should have seen me yesterday.. totally zonked out.
re: pear drink
mummies, actually i m a bit sceptical of this pear drink. i have heard good reviews but also seen (real examples) that it doesn't work. so to me it's kind of like 50-50. furthermore, as a kid, i am not allowed to eat chinese pear (li) because it's very cooling.. supposed to be bad for asthma.. so i m not sure if boiled into water, whether it is really good? but then, this is just my view.
perhaps somebody can really brew it, try and see if it helps with the cough.. then post review here? thanks!

pax,
i think right, the pear-drink may be good if it is heaty-cough. but for asthma-cough, or cold-cough, i am not sure.
manuka is very good if u can 'catch' your cough before it starts. ie. if u can feel a little irritation at thr throat.. then u quickly swallow one teaspoon.. then it really can help and prevent it from escalating into something else. if u buy manuka, remember NOT to use a metal spoon to scoop and eat. i can't remember exact reason but something about metal will 'spoil' the effect. no need to refrigerate, can just keep in cabinet.. and swallow, not make into drink.

pax and autum: i am one that has tried and tested on the pear for cough..everytime i have cough, i will brew this.. it works for me all the time. My mum pass me thsi recipe, she works in a hospital, her nurses colleagues also swears by it. so i think so far it works for me lah. but if u r prone to asthma, better dun take lor.
kaexin: thanks.. coz both me and teng both down. i down with gastric flu. teng down with extreme bad cough and blocked nose (which resulted in a bacterial infection)
ya.. honely cannot be scooped with metal sppons.. this one i learnt when i visited taiwan last time .. and got some honey back. ha..
coz the metal will cause the honey to 'oxide' or something ilke that.. dunno what that guide was talking about
autum: mr wong going for business trip?
i have two bottles of manuka honey leh. one at home.. the other one at office.. coz a nice colleage got me a bottle coz she heard me coughing nonstop! so nice hor?! so .. there are houseflies and sweet honey bees in my department as well!

Just having some thots..
Sometimes although he been thru so much and sometimes regret having little L coz he suffer so much, yet when see his big eyes looking back at me, smiling and playing happily away, when he keep flipping to his sides both left and right he is ok, looking at people and things so intently, I guess that's why his eyes are big, to look and observe! I can't imagine life without him and his bro. Although b4 giving birth to him, I wonder whether how to have more love when I love #1 so much, but naturally more love naturally comes.
Although he still not yet won his battle, but am glad to see he is still fighting on strongly despite his health, surprisingly he is quite strong with his grip and standing when all along I am so worried abt his development coz naturally he will be weaker than his peers. But of coz his health takes priority over anything now, so sometimes I tell myself not to think too much, not to compare, he's my special baby.
Someone told me I shd be thankful, he suffer when he's a baby, at least he don't rem the pain when he grow up, hopefully his future childhood down the years will be painless and happy for him. At first I don't agree coz I feel life is cruel to him when he barely seen the world yet but now seeing his smiles makes me think maybe its true.. he won't rem.
But I feel sad coz as a human.. 'chi shi fu'.. but he won't be able to have this 'fu' lo.. can't eat what he like.

Mummies, suddenly I rem, need some advice.
Past 2 days, we were training my #1 boy to potty-train, coz he able to tell us when he poo and when he pee, then I realized he keep going to pee lo.. sometimes a bit only, scared he keep forcing out the urine. Is this normal? But we did tell him to come sit on the potty when urine a lot lot, ask him to keep inside. He seems to understand ler.. see how today. We kept the potty else he keep coming to sit and pee, so now he wan pee he ask for it then we let him pee.
I wonder if this is normal during the training??
Anything to take note or do during potty training???

Enne,
Maybe he just start to toliet train, finding can pee when want is something new. Hence will go and try and try. After awhile should be ok bah.
My kids dun have this problem although Dylan also partially toliet train. Dylan will wait till alot of urine then go. Sometimes not fast enough will urinate on the toliet floor. At least toliet floor easier to clean.

Huingee-oh.. I scared he force urine come out lo.. but he knows to wait till he get the potty then pee pee. Hope this is just passing phase.
Sometimes he played till so engrossed he forgot to ask for the potty, then got once even pee on the sofa, then come tell me sofa wet wet. haha.
