(2007/11) November MTBs


MissA: Seems like Mrs Chan is very famous in agar agar. We ordered her agar agar for E's 1st birthday, my friends and coligs also ordered from her. Must say her agar agar taste and look nice.
 
cactus, thanks for the feedback on Mrs Chan. Now I can rest assured and order

poissons, this yr's party is going to be small scale compare to last yr. Hopefully the guests not expecting the same standard haha. btw A is running a fever since sat & she has cough & running nose. Shan Dong good in treating this? I might want to try but they are close today.
 
MissA,
Actually we stopped going to Shan Dong already cos' it was quite tedious to bring him there every week (cos' Hubby work late and I was simply too tired cos' preg). I think they are ok, but not very fantastic, cos' after a while, they just give you the same meds and do the same thing without really diagnosing you. My mum mentioned there's another one in Holland Drive, let me get the contact and sms you tonight when I go to her place in the evening. She prefers the consultation there.
 
Mummies,

Can i check if anyone of u has any brand new 4oz Desitin Cream (Creamy in blue box) to let go? I'm helping my cousin to purchase coz her 5 month old girl is in ICU for more than 1 month and she has been purchasing the 2oz tubes from pharmacy which can only last her for abt 1 wk.

Pls PM me if you've any to let go. TIA!
 
hi girls, been so tied up. Took Matt 1.5 weeks to be fully recovered from his stomach virus, now he is down with a fever and running nose. Sigh... The last 2 weeks, I was either bringing him to the doctor's (been there 3 times in 2 weeks) or visiting for schools. Gosh, I never knew schooling can be so bad. Either all classes are full with long waiting lists, or too expensive or too far. I finally nailed down 2 today. Have decided on one of them but bringing my hubby for a final visit tomorrow and we will decide. I was so lucky to even get a spot, according to one of my friend who is a mummy here in Shanghai. I was almost comtemplating sending Matt for the French class while waitlist for the English class. Thank god, I managed to secure spot in English class.

Was telling my hubby I am so tired that I suggest I go back to work and he take leave to stay home with the 2 kids. He of course refused. hahah...
 
Tnkabel:well in sin is already ttouhg...SHA think more so le.....transport is already a major problem
sad.gif


mabe shifting ur place will be a better solution????
 
MissA: Yes yes, Sunday. Too many things happening on this wkend coz my helper leaving me on this Sat, so i kept thinking of the things to settle and buy for her before she leaves. So sad...Price wise i'm not too sure also, between $9-$10 i think. I pay u $10 can?

Tinkabel: *Hugs* Perhaps it's the adjusting bk to SH. He'll get well soon. Hw's Shannon? Post photos of her here lei, long time din see her:)
 
missA: Her agar agar cakes cost $45-50 normally but if you order a cake from her, she may offer you an agar agar cake at a special price of $25. =)

tinkabel: Hope Matt gets well soon. I can't imagine how tired you must be. hang in there ok! And I can totally relate to how you're feeling that going back to work is easier than being a SAHM. Things will get better once Matt is in school...=)
 
Michviv,
i was also given the contact for the agar agar, and i will prob try it out for ZY's 2nd mini bday affair.

Tinkabel,
hugs to Matt - hope he quickly gets well soon.

mummies.. anyone order from gap before?

I just ordered yesterday then I received an email from them to ask me to call them to verified something before they can proceed my orders leh.. Do u encounter this before?
 
mambobb,
nvr tried gap before but i remember last time when i ordered from babycenter, they did call me up to verify my ordered items, but NOT credit card details, etc.
 
missA: so shd I ignore or wat? Coz the email said that:

Dear Ms. Lim, Thank you for your recent order, #13W9JFP. Your order is currently beingheld for additional verification. To continue processing your order, please call us and have your credit card and order number available. If a response is not received within 24 hours, your order will be cancelled.

How??
 
Weishy, ur balloons at my plc. Passed to you on this Sunday, if i can come...

Whole family down with flu when back from KL... Haiz...
 
k@ye:

same here for me. After my son goes to CC was down with fever last week and now got cough and running nose.

Worse, now passed to my girl and she also got cough which leads to water in the lungs. Luckily is initially stage...sigh... sleepless night for us last night. Really hope they get well soon
 
Hi gals, sigh... After Matt is well from his stomach virus, he started having fever / running nose early this week. Alas, supposed to start school next Monday, now also dunno how. Worse, I think he spread to Shannon, who is also down. Sigh, I have been to the doc's so many times since I came back. Somemore the flu season is really bad now. Saw in the news that in BJ, half the cases of flu are H1N1. Supper scary.

Michviv: Hey want to check with u, is there any eye drops we can use for kids. Matt has sensitive eyes so PD suggested that he used eye drops (Cromax-2)esp for the winter. But just this week, he started to have more teary eyes and when he wakes up, the tears have hardened. This never really happened before. I am contemplating if I shd bring him to see the doc's and check out what's wrong. Any advice?
 
Tinkabel:
my no1 started school 2 weeks ago and that's how no2 caught the virus. And yes he also got the stomach flu 1 month plus ago and then the whole family got it except my no2.

So when Matt goes to school, he might catch another round virus before his immunity builds up. In my no1's school, most kids are having running and cough.. this one recovered, the next one will get it...Guess could be due to cold weather and haze...
 
hi mummies,
long time no post. yday finally made time to get the gift exchange for the party this sun. hope that whoever (prince/princess) gets this gift will like it

You ladies enjoy & post pix for me to see hor!

mambobb, i use citibank CC and no prob leh.

k@ye, hope claire will recover by Sunday. Ashlee was also down with fever since last Sat, she visited doc 3 times last 2 weeks for cough & flu. She is recovering and went back to cc today. I will be thr for the party else there is no BD cake!

tinkabel & Rachel, take care. With 2 kids, catching bugs from one another sure to happen frequently.

catherine, if you like Sunday's cake then u can order from Smiling Orchid which is in Ghim Moh. Else just pay for delivery.
 
tinkabel: Sorry to hear that Matt is down again. When you mean that Matt has sensitive eyes, do you mean that he gets teary eyes very often? Does he rub his eyes often and will his eyes get red? What the doctor gave you is an anti-allergy eye drop and is relatively safe to use in children. The other alternative would be to get an antihistamine eyedrop but it would be similar to the one you have now, just different mode of action.

When you mentioned that his tears have hardened, do you mean like eye discharge that are hardened? It may be due to the dryer climate in Shanghai. Sometimes, the eyes get so dry that it overcompensates and produces tear to overcome the dryness. If that is the case, you can use hypermellose eyedrops to help maintain the eye moisture.

Hope this helps.=)
 
Tinkabel: Oh, Shannon is also down with flu? I guess it's not easy to isolate them when they're under 1 roof. Hope yr kiddos get well soon before the weather turns any colder in SH.

K@ye: Yes, hope Claire will recover in time for the party.

Nov Party: Mummies, we've all opted for nuggets but have yet to order the side dish and drinks. Pls try to think what you want to order for the side dish and drinks before the party so as to make the co-ordination work easy. I'll try to prepare a spreadsheet and place it at the entrance of the party room, u just have to tick on the option and we'll collate and pass it to Mac Donald's. Else, it'll be madness going round to take order.

Also, K@ye has tt the $ collection to me. For those who fork out $ first for the party, pls approach me, i'll return u the $ in cash on that day.

I'll see you all on this Sunday at 1130am!
 
michviv: thks for the infor. Before, he would often rub his eyes and the PD attributed this to sensitive eyes, but never teary. Starting last week when he was recovering from the stomach flu, his eyes started looking a little swollen and that's when it started being tearful and the tears would hardened. This has not happened before so it appears a bit strange. In fact, not sure if I am being paranoid, I just feel one of my eyes also feel the same way, so I am thinking whether he caught an infection or something. Anyway was intending to bring him to a doctor today but the Spore doctor we have been seeing is not on duty today, so I guess we will hv to wait till next Mon. He's supposed to start school next week. Sigh, just feel so unprepared. If he doesnt recover over the wkend, we can't start on Mon. Was hoping he would be completely well so I can let him take the flu vaccine before winter hits.

Cactus: Yes shannon's down too. I have been kept so busy since I returned to Shanghai.
