mylife,
Oh yah, didn't mean to ignore your request for my email to pass to your friend. Didn't reply you cos my sis is pregnant again (after 2 miscarriages) so I need to keep the baby clothes for her. I was waiting for her pregnancy to stablise before deciding whether to give the clothes away or keep for her. She passed down alot of baby clothes to me which I've given some away liao so better return the last batch to her. Help me say sorry to your friend ok.
 
Singulair is a leukotriene (loo-koe-TRY-een) inhibitor. Leukotrienes are chemicals your body releases when you breathe in an allergen (such as pollen). These chemicals cause swelling in your lungs and tightening of the muscles around your airways, which can result in asthma symptoms.

Singulair is used to prevent asthma attacks in adults and children as young as 12 months old. It is also used to relieve runny nose and sneezing caused by allergies in adults and children as young as 6 months old.

Do not give Singulair to a child without a doctor's advice.

yup, singulair is famously used to treat asthma patients. My PD told me that too, but he did give me a very detailed explanation on how it's also used for clearing up airway (like what shannonbaby said). But of cos, ur right, it shudnt be used too often. Only as prescribed but must finish a course (like antibiotics).

And nope, no offense taken...in fact, i was the one who forgot all about it. I was worried u were wondering how come i never collect from u since u told me last time u packed it up for me liao...No worries, my fren has got lots of 2nd hand clothings donated to her...from pixie alone, i got 2 bagfuls! Thanks pixie!!!

LOL. Secretarial jobs are no joke also. I went thru a period of being "treated with indifference" by acquaintances who think lowly of secretarial jobs ie frens/schoolmates of hubby's colleagues who seem to think secretaries does nothing but file their nails all day long and answer phone calls. When they asked me "so, what do u do?" and i replied "secretary" they go..."oh..." and then silence, like they have nothing to talk to me about or they think i have nothing intelligent to contribute. The job itself also very siong cos either an EA or PA to CEO, u're like on call 24/7, and there's nothing u cant do (in the eyes of ur boss) or rather, u have to do everything. Everything bao ga liao.If u dunno, then have to call and learn how to! But i must say, i learnt alot from the various bosses that i've served. Aiyoh recalling those days, damn siong. But like i say lo...i'm lucky to jump from job to job with pay increment. At the end of the day, the people that "looks down" on my job are very surprised to know i actually earn more than them.

i am back to office! retrieved my hp

got 2 missed call & one of them was from studioloft! Is from maryann & she just wanna asked permission (if i feel ok) to give my V-day bloom shot for mediacorp promo advert purpose cos one of my shot with hb was selected by mediacorp. Well, i said ok since pic no obscene exposure.

shannonbaby,
my hb gave my PIL $800 for looking after my 2 boys. That exclude FM, diaper etc. Previously when my mil still working full time, my hb only gave $200 niah.

kitsune,
Hugs to RaeAnne, hope she get well soon! u gotta take care too.
 
mylife,
What you said about secretary's job is very very true. I was an Executive cum PA in one of my previous jobs (the one with the ang moh boss). Had to do everything including my boss's job. His budget reports and monthly reports were all done by me. And whenever he asks, I had to have all the answers at my fingertips. It's tough but it also shows that my boss trust me very much cos I know some of the secretary in the same company only does phone calls, gossips and file nails...hahaha! It's very extreme lah, maybe that's why most people tend to think secretary have a good life and easy job.
 
wah@ steph

kam, mylife
then can singulair be taken by adults?
honestly when i have allergic nose like today, my lungs feel very congested and i cant breathe in fully. hoho...might as well take singulair. i am not sure what i took when i was asthmatic when young. forgot med name

mylife
aiyah those 2 bags of clothes, i gave your fren those that i dont like, so nevermind at all. i mixed with a lil bit grown up clothes eg 3mths, 6mths etc so that ur fren can stretch this bit longer. every cent counts since she is in need of stuff hor? when i was preggy, my sis gave me lots, my nephew ones oso passed to me. even my niece stuff my bil oso throw to me. made me mad coz they all think i storeroom...then i pass to ur fren lor haha
 
jess, shannonbaby,
maryann mentioned some baby mag/advert, details not sure...gotta check with mediacorp if i really wanna know. I am surprise that they will pick my pic cos i am not photogenic type or maybe they don't want someone so perfect or model bah...hehe
 
nolah steph u humble leh, u oredi considered quite nice looking (ime=in my eyes) liao and the bloom shots still showed you looking...errr how should i say..."trim"?
 
steph,
What I like most about your photos is your smile, you have this killer smile, very sweet and very "real", can feel the 幸福 in you :)
 
shannonbaby

pixie
can. The singulair pd gave to rylee was in powder form, to mix with her milk, but i caught the same virus and was having those whooping cough that comes like a stupid attack and can makes cough until u turn blue kind. I was also prescribed by my family doc Singulair but it was in capsule form. Ask ur doctor about it

I think my fren gladly be your "storeroom" lo...

yest i was watching starhub chn 70 (discovery home and health) and some doc made me think very hard about his comment.
the show was about IVF and a couple having quintuplets. he said almost all twins/triplets and above babies will definately be prematurely born. as more and more mothers (in USA specifically) are having triplets, quadruplets, quintuplets etc, it is a worrying trend. which means more and more premmie babies in %, if you compare premmie vs full term.
he said IVF doctors and parents are so keen on achieving the goal of getting preggy that they never see the end results: premmie births

so true neh
 
Mummies,
I juz brought some bread that taste like cake from vivo... is from those pushcart & yet attract a big crowd... Taste so soft & yummy... Think our toddlers will like it ; ) But a bit ex cost $3.80 a loaf.

mylife
very cold i cannot stand it. i scared cold than hot

so which leads me to another topic:
scared hot or scared cold?
 
mylife
wah.. so cold.. nice!

Re: Scared hot/cold
my answer is scared hot... Javier also scared hot... only my hubby scared cold... haha.. so it is not easy to go travelling ~
 
pixie,
Me too. My boy & i love both bread & cake and this combination is ultimate!!;)

Me so sleepy now. Yawn *.*

Re: Hot/cold
I'm scared of both... I will still on aircon at nite though is so cold but i will still hide under thick blanket.
 
Q: scared hot or scared cold?
A: scared hot! Same for hubby and Brien. We LOVE the cold epecially cold countries! Envy mylife now...
 
pixie
i'm scared of hot! which is why i love HK! At the very least got some cooling months. Rylee also scared of hot...she perspires like nobody's biz. Hubby also scared of hot. So jus nice, we're here enjoying the winter...but these few days, really very cold! I prefer cold cos cold i can wear more clothings to solve the problem, not enough, wear some more. But hot hor, there's only so much u can take off rite? Even if take off until naked, STILL hot! hahahahaha
 
My boy is down before having his vaccination today.. sigh had to cancel his appt for the jabs. Fever until 39.6 degree. sigh, now i had to cope alone cos my pil and sil not in sg already. Fotunately hb on leave, intending to accompany me for checkup and bring X to jabs.

mylife,
My timing to HK not so good. Very sunny and hot, I was hoping for some cool weather.

RE: hot/cold
Not too hot and not too cold, best for me haha.. around 10-20, i very comfy. Think i scare hot since too hot, my eczema will get worse.
 
yvonne
but hor, during winter, very leceh lah...bring rylee go for an outing only, have to wear layers and layers (for fear of catching cold for her), so ma huan! Summer time, just tshirt and shorts can liao. But i love wearing jackets and boots for winter!

Dont envy, come HK visit me lah! hehehehe
 
pixie, kam,
哪里,哪里,你过奖了 & tks for yr compliments
happy.gif

my MIL mentioned both my son inherit my smile BUT she always comment to pple that my boys got wide mouth!...that really upsad/piss me sometime.

pixie,
IVF premmie births also very common in SIN nowadays. Prematurely born babies are ok if they can still grow up normally & catch up with their peers. We cannot control when bb wanna come to this world ya...beyond our control as long as healthy & no development complication can liow hor.
 
I scared of hot and love cold very much. Wish I am staying in a country with 4 different seasons.

I only travel to other places during spring, autumn or winter. Never summer. Cos i love to wear winter clothes n boots..hehhe
 
icy
yah, the autumn/winter in HK is getting shorter and shorter, they predict that by 2070, HK will no longer have 4 seasons. Never mind, i dead by then! LOL. Last time, when i stayed here in 2004, Sept is already cooling (autumn) with temp around 22-26c, nice aircon-like weather...now HK no autumn, just from hot switched to cold winter in mid Nov (now)
 
mylife,
Good mah, can wear all the nice winter clothes. I can only envy cos hubby cannot take leave during year-end....sobs sobs...always miss out the best season to go for holidays.
 
pixie,
Think you and me are the only ones who like hot more than cold. I super hate winter, that's why I didn't stay on in UK and OZ, came back to this lovely tropical country instead :)
 
Re: hot/cold
me same as icy, not too hot nor too cold...10-20 cooling very nice. I like spring & autumn season but if SIN got 4 diff seasons that means trouble cos i hate earthquakes & typhoon.
 
JanBB,
last time when working never get allowance from hb at all.
After becoming SAHM, managed to negotiate for some allowance, but is only abt 30% of my last salary...
but now he takes over 100% all expenses. so the allowance is fully for me to use for personal things or to save lor..
 
kam
judging at the response harnor hor. I don't sweat much but both my boy n hb scared hot. yesterday my hb sweating in lrt but I felt cold. i hate yr end coz I always fall sick n major ones. past 10 yrs like that liao. all started when I was caught in de rain after my o levels, so sick until pass out kind. frm then on very scared cold, n every yr end will get sick
 
pixie,
My hubby and my boy ok with cold and hot. Actually I am ok with cold also, but I just don't like it. Afterall, I grew up in Cameron Highland :)

Wah, you were so sick huh. Aiyoh, sounds like you have a lot of health problem leh (if I remember correctly). You really must take something to "bu".
 
pixie,
ur iphone ok liow huh? like kam said, u really gotta take gd care of your body le...try TCM to strengthen yr overall body system otherwise lau liao jialat.
 
steph, eh i wanna see your photo also leh! issit in fb?

pixie, yea try tcm.

Pauline, other than chuan bei mu, add in dried tangerine to add sweetness to the soup, and add dry figs n nanxing bei xing. Seems like R has lots of phlegm. Song bei would be better than chuan bei cuz it’s higher grade. For R’s high fever, make sure she has enuff intake of water, fluid, juices. Did you make Chinese big barley with green bean soup for her? If can, make burdock soup for her too. It’s good to bring down the fever.
 
tongtong,
fb only few pic. for full album, go to my multiply blog but u gotta be under my contacts to view my photos as it's not open to public. u PM me yr email & i sent invite to u. Once u accept my invitation, u'll be able to view it.
