USA Grad Student Research with Singapore Parents - Quick Survey

Thank you to those who have completed my survey - I have already received 25 responses!! I am hoping to get 5 more so I can do my comparison study. Can you share this with other parents you know? I really appreciate the help and am so excited about studying in your country! Here are the details...

I am a graduate student at the University of St. Thomas in the United States (Minnesota), participating in a study abroad course in Singapore at the National Institute of Education. The study is to learn more about couple's relationship as they take on the role of parenthood.

The following people are invited to take the 5-minute survey:
* Have you had your first (and only) child in the past six months to 24 months?
* Do you live with the co-parent?
* Is it the first child for both partners?

To start the survey, please click the link below or copy and paste it into your Internet browser.

Hi Mummies,

My son is having this persistent cough almost 1 month.
Does any mummies here knows of any good doctor that treats cough? Thank you.
I had brought him to see PD 4 times and to TCM but nothing works and now at my wits end.
Any kind mummies have any suggestion?
 
Wishing all a happy and prosperous new year ! May all be bless with good health and HUAT AH !

Strawberries: alright lah ... hahaha... I kinda getting a bit lazy ... hahaha... Will compensate him with a trip in July hahha...

Calamari: wow ! Book one year in advanced !! Best !!

Cass: you might wanna change a doc or tcm ? This is what I did when Xav's PD doesn;t work. I brought him to the tcm @ Rochor Centre. Her medicine works well for Xav. Infact much better than western medicine.

As recommended by some mummies, I have been giving Xav GNC cod liver oil daily. It helps and I have not been hearing him cough since then. If it does, I will give GNC Allercare and Vit C together and it works well too.

Herbs like cordyceps do help in healing cough too.

Hope this helps.
 
Hi cass,

I bring my son to Dr Ong EK at SBCC (Thomson). He specialises in cough. Another doctor that someone recommended was Kai Clinic at Katong. A rather old doctor though.. Maybe u have to watch his diet. My son has sensitive airways so he is prone to persistent coughing. He had never taken citrus food and I control his snacking of biscuit. No cooling stuff etc.. I think I saw in some thread that some mummies recommned Eu Yan Seng cough medicine.. Hou Ning.

I have been giving him cod liver oil since he turned 1 and also sambuccus.
 
Thank Mummies for all the advises and recommendation for PD. I will bring him to see Dr Ong as recommended by some mummies and hopefully it the end of my nightmare.
 
i intend to send #1 to cc. since i will be working full time i was planning to send him for full day cc. i called one of them and it is fully booked until 2011 *faints* i quickly chope a place for nx yr nursery. u girls better go fast.
 
hi mommies, any of your babies still sleeping in cot? i wanna move my boy to a single bed, but he moves around the cot so much i'm worried he'll fall off the bed.. any one with experience with this?
 
jojoz kinderland near lot 1 lor...

cotegr my boy sleeps with me on a king size bed and he takes up a big space. or try let him sleep on tilam on the floor? at least wont fall so badly?
 
mushloom:
my hubby don't allow the boy to sleep in our room.. kicked him out when he was 6 months! :p we bought the new bed for him coz need to prepare the cot for 2nd baby.. maybe should have gotten a lower mattress.. we bought the spring mattress so it's higher than the foam or tilam one.. wondering whether should just let him learn on his own.. hopefully he fall once will learn not to anyhow move on the bed??
 
<font color="ff6000">looking for magazine - The Finder (Just 4 Kidz) Jan 2010 issue, anyone has it? Thanks
