sob sob.. i called my mum to ask how did adri do tdy and she told me adri cried b4 entering her class cos the kids in her class are still crying!!! tink she finally gave in to the "stress" that the other crying kiddos gave her. but lucky thing is she stopped after being led in by her teacher.
Maruko,
Brig is a stephen Joseph (??) bag, those that can customised his name on it...
I think cos brig dun drink milk during the day so i dun need to put milk bottle etc etc...
bbow,
Just buy it. Brig has one for x'mas present, he like to pull it around... hee hee. Is so cute..
hippo,
Is normal for them to cry after a few days. COs for the 1st few days, everything is new for them. Now the routine sink in... dun worry... she will be fine... brave girl right??

Good luck and hope that you get a good helper next week. Life will be a lot of different I'm sure with the extra help. If you are at home most of the time, guess it should be ok.
MIL

I'm sure Adri will be fine.
BTW, for those who read my FB might seen this before
when K hears a baby cries she will say
" ma ma, baby crying" then ask me to listen with her hand at her ears
then it will follow by : Baby cry, how?
then, she will use her hand and pat her buttock and say pat pat pat
Do you know where she learn this?? Guess?

hippo,
aiyo, some kids just need longer time to settle down right... relax...
Is like newborn babies in the nursery, when one cries, the other will follow.
bbow,
is only 3 hours.. then the bag is too big. There are other thomas and friends bag that are smaller.. u can try those.
totoro_bb,
Nope, u have to bring everything, everyday. Better to find one near your place if not is not a joke to take public transport with our bag and their stuff.
I told bus home with brig every fri aft his school, is not a joke...

Hi mummies,
After my short nap, i wake up sensing my nose is acting up again. Think someone here is pregnant again. Or did i miss out anyone that i dun know has already announced? cos long time never log in here liao.
Hippo,
Dun be angry. Some children has very bad separation anxiey. Normally it takes 2-4weeks for them to settle down. Adri's reaction is perfectly normal. Give the teachers, the kids more time & trust Adri will settle and adapt the place real fast. For me, these 4 days, Dayan's has been wetting himself..pack 2 shorts, all changed everyday. He simply dun want to speak up and the teachers are not bringing him to toilets. THink i must call the teachers tmr liao.
Dun know whether is he stressed, he comes home also wet his shorts...today change 7 shorts liao!! I BTH him liao. Take out cane and start to whack him. I am just simply too impatient liao. haizz!
CLAP CLAP to Chloe!

USA Grad Student Research with Singapore Parents - Quick Survey
I am a graduate student at the University of St. Thomas in the United States (Minnesota), currently participating in a study abroad course in Singapore at the National Institute of Education, Nanyang Technical University.
For my doctorate program I am conducting a research study in which I am requesting your assistance. The study is to learn more about couple's relationship as they take on the role of parenthood. Since this website is designed for parents, I thought you and/or someone you knew may be interested in helping me with this project. I am hoping to compare my data from USA parents to Sinagpore parents.
This may or may not apply to you. If you doesn't, please forward this to people you know so it can reach other first-time parents who may want to participate. Thanks for your help!
Do you meet the following criteria? Do you know someone who does?
* Have you had your first (and only) child in the past six months to two years?
* Do you live with the co-parent?
* Is it the first child for both partners?
* Do you want to share information that could help other couples transition into parenthood?
If you answered YES to these questions, and are 18 years of age or older, you are eligible to participate in this parenting research study. This survey is being conducted through an online questionnaire and is estimated to only take 5-10 minutes to complete.

Junnie,
Now then i read your story about zann's incident at school. Wau lau! Too protective liao lah this mother. Wu liao! Think nothing to do at home. You are very right in teaching Zann. But must tell Zann to stand firm not to get bullied. So angry with this type of parents. Give me the impression that her daughter is the only flower, the rest are grass. Damn it! KNS! BTH!

Totoro_bb,
I'm shfting to the east, near my mum's place and near Caelen's Playgoup / Pre-Nursery
Junnie,
So heng, I KS bought 2 sets, the school "packaged" 2 top / 2 pants and 1 bag in a set. Wanted to have extra cos sometime Caelen will go to school from my mum's place, sometime from my home.
Update on Caelen,
His lesson is from 9am to 11am. I left the classroom at 10am yesterday and he start to cry. Cry until he fell asleep and I'd to carry him home. He slept until 1pm !.
As for today, parent should not go in liao. So I left him with the assistant teacher, he start to cry. For a moment he settled down then another kid's grandma FINALLY left the room and her grandosn cry, it started a chain reaction with the rest.
If i'm not wrong, the teacher is fresh from school and totally lost in pacifing the kids. The assistant teacher is a aunty and had to guide her along. When I left at 9.45am, Caelen is still crying and grabbing to the assistant teacher and refuse to let her go. My dad who went to pick Caelen up at 10.30am says that he'd settled down to play puzzle (but the assistant teacher still have to sit beside him) but the moment the other kid's grandma open the door to pick her grandson, Caelen started to cry again. Poor thing.
Re: Toilet Training,
I'm having a headache. Caelen refuse to sit down to POO ! He wants to do it standng up ! *Sigh*

morning mummies!
wow alot of posts to catch up heehee.
junnie: yah u r very nice in handling the matter liao! if its me, i wont be so nice. though u did the right thing asking zann to apologize but still need to "talk" to the other parent that her daughter is at fault 1st leh!
jas: dun be impatient w dayan, think new surroundings tend to unsettle toddlers and they will forget their toilet training for time being. very soon, im sure he will speak up and ask teachers to bring him to toilet. of cos, u need to remind the teachers that dayan is already toilet trained and bring him to toilets every now n then. they must do their part too!
im also v interested to know who did u sniff out this time. hehe. own up pls!
maruko: good to know that u n ur MIL more ok liao!
twinkle_star: wow, garina so gung-ho. but good lah, can settle in school faster and no need worry for her. then you can an xin yang tai!

Morning Mummies...
Maruko,
Miss all of you too!
As per norm, I have been following through the posts. Somehow, not sharing my thoughts as loads n tonnes of it. If shared, everyone will be listening only to me.
Jerry just started childcare @ little skool house this week. Till this morning, I really left him there on his own and left. He screamed and cried. Past few days was fairly quite ok as he has either the helper or daddy around with him. I almost teared when I saw him screaming for me coz can see that his lips turned blue when he cried... Haiz... So sianz... He is going through a tough phase, and I guess I am too.
Hoping both of us can get over and be strong soon.
Jas,
My bb bump really obvious this time.
This time round not really same as when I had Jerry. Dun noe the gender yet coz just done with 1st trimester screening only. Next scan will only be done on 20weeks (detailed scan).
Got to rush off. Talk again.
Good day to all!

jovialz: dun be too upset over c's crying. its common for them to go thru this separation anxiety phase initially. its good that he;s clinging on to the assistant teacher. at least he sees her as someone for comfort. for yz, he refused to be handled by anyone initially and just sit/lie ard pitifully for abt 2 weeks!
doobom: symptoms different? then high chance it may be a mei mei this time!
keep us updated ok!
for jerry, must be upset n unsettling for you to leave him crying. but hang on and be strong, im sure he will adapt soon. the more you hang ard, the more its harder for him to settle in the new surroundings..

Jas,
It's really good that Dayan is toilet-trained. I guess he is under stress about wetting himself these few days. Jerry was stressed up too so he only poo-ed on alternate days, think he bth already then poo @ one go. So his poo these few days really power, so much so much. He dun really dare to poo when he is out, I guess that's the challenge for him. He is still yet toilet-trained, blame on the lazy me.
hippo,
It's great to hear how Adri adapt well in school 1st few days. Yes, with peer pressure when daddy/mummy leaves the skool or when friends start leaving @ end of day, the crying/screaming seems contagious. Adri is a strong gal, she will prove it to you that she can adapt well in no time.

doobom, so glad to see ur post. Will b waitin for u to update us on the gender but I tink high chances its a mei mei this time since u got really bad MS.
J also started school? Its really heartachin for us mummies to gotta place our kiddos alone at a new place for them to adjust & grow up independently. But dun worry, tink at J's current age, it wont take long for him to get used to the school.

ecookie,
Yup, though after 1st tri, somehow the MS still cling on me on and off. I am neutral about either didi or meimei, though hb and parents are hoping for meimei. Sure, I will announce when I noe the gender.
You are counting down to welcoming didi ya? Rest well as you count down as you will be super duper bz when didi arrives.
The problem is Jerry does not want anyone else to carry him though the teacher tries to carry and calm him down. As he is quite big, I am afraid that his teacher will find it difficult to handle him as she carries him. Still worrying about him now though I am rushing off for meeting soon.
