Feifei,
I have started giving Childlife Fish Oil to Athan, it's a clear oil wif no taste but mild strawberry smell. I personally feel the smell is not very nice cos it reminds me of children's cough syrup. One thing is there's no fishy smell or taste. Maybe u can consider getting a bottle for Charlotte to try.

Now, u draw fr Medisave, Baby Bonus for pneumococcal jabs .
Pls read on below article from StraitsTimess.
More protection for babies
Parents can draw on Medisave, Baby Bonus for pneumococcal jabs
PARENTS will be allowed from next month to draw on their Medisave and Baby Bonus accounts to vaccinate their babies against a family of bacteria that attacks the brain, lungs, blood and ears.
The Government is adding the pneumococcal vaccine to the childhood immunisation programme, putting its stamp on what it thinks is important for children to be protected against.
It arrived at the decision following a recommendation by its expert committee on immunisation, which decides on the jabs for the programme.
The committee found that in the United States, where most babies have been getting this protection since 2000, illnesses and deaths from serious pneumococcal disease have dropped by 75per cent.
Five other vaccines, such as those against diphtheria, polio and tuberculosis, are on the list. Four are free to Singapore babies at polyclinics, while the fifth vaccine, against HepatitisB, costs $37 for the three jabs, which can be paid out of Medisave.
The pneumococcal vaccine, which has been available since 2000, costs $510 for the recommended three shots at a polyclinic.

Morning ladies...
Talking abt MMR, hmm..Charlotte has taken hers and so far, we are on the lookout for autism...Everything is so far so good *touchwood*...Personnally I just feel if I wan to send her to cc, its better for her to take all the jabs becos I am a KS mummy lor, worried that she might get mumps etc so just a protection lor =).
kye,
Hmm...i feel 18mths is still too young lor...But by the tiem they are 24mths, I tink its good to let them go play play, either those dou dou class or enrichment classes lor...For myself, I am also sandwhiched in btw cc or dou dou class...
There are pros and cons of sending out kids to cc lor...Pros is they can learn more things, learn from peers. Peer pressure will let them learn together. Cons will be they will fall sick easiy since there are so many kids in e cc. Some kids might pick up the bad habits too....

My kitchen water leakage is given me and hb so much stress. Yest the whole kitchen cabinet is full of water and water dripping down the floor. headache
roxy
I tink pd can oso use medisave. the news say upfront there is no need for any cash payment, just need to fill up form.
kye
Is there any separate jabs to take in this case?
Anyway, i maybe will check with the allergy specialist before letting him take the jab, since it contains egg.

<font color="aa00aa">Ladies,
Juz to share the reply i got from MOH regarding MMR injections.
Dear Felicia,
We refer to your query below and thank you for allowing us to clarify.
We would like to share that under the Infectious Diseases Act (IDA), both measles and diptheria vaccinations are required. However, MMR (Mumps, Measles and Rubella) immunisations, a combined vaccination, are all listed in our National Childhood Immunisation Schedule, as they are all highly recommended against a slew of potential complications from contracting the diseases. In addition, MMR is also provided at no cost if the Schedule is adhered to and are taken at polyclinics.
Furthermore, the combined vaccination is to reduce the number of times a child would have to be injected and hence visits to the doctor. For a comprehensive listing of the schedule, you may wish to refer to this website by the Health Promotion Board (HPB).
We hope that clarifies.
Thank you and we wish you and your family good health.
Yours sincerely,
John Heng

feifei,
yup, same CC.
ellysia,
I was told by the nurse at the polyclinic years ago,
if our child is allegy to egg yolk,
still can take MMR, but it's another type,
without the yolk stuffs.
But they do not have it at the polyclinic,
need to take it at KKH.

Re: Jabs
Lil ZuEn took the new MMRV jab last week wor. Together with the pnuemoccocal jab. She cry like anything.
MMRV need 2 jabs to complete. The doc asked me if I wanted the MMRV when I was there. I tot better since can reduce the no. of jabs. I really dread bringing Lil ZuEn for jabs now.
I am so confused now over what jabs she is left with. I know one more jab for pneumoccoal but cant rem how many months apart from the 1st jab. Then MMRV jab, oso duno how far apart from the 1st jab and the 18-month duno what jab.
What is the 18th-month compulsory jab huh?

Re: Pneumococcal
I plan to give YuJie this jab when she turn 2 yrs old, then only need one jab. As she had another booster jab at 18mths, so dont plan to give both together. I dread of bringing my kids for jab, i'll cry with them together. *paiseh*

<font color="aa00aa">Ellysia,
Can understand.
Just that i dont want YuJie to take 2 jabs at one go. If possible i try to drag few mths apart before the 2nd jab. For compulsory jab, no choice, tats why i can only drag those optional jab.
Ladies,
Btw, i finally brought the Thomas playhut with tunnel for my gers last weekend. Now need to source the ballpit tent to join the tunnel. Both of my gers was crawling in and out the tunnel for almost one hr. They r excited but YuJie 'passion' died on the next day. As for my #1 she loves to play her puzzle and hide inside. Well i think kids get bored with their toys so easily.</font>
