connie,

btw, how's ur boy coping in cc?
ellysia,
yes, the chinese doc also mentioned sensitive airways and i was advised to get a purifier. there is this dr koh who's very good in treating coughs at AMK SBCC but when i went yest, was told he's no longer with them, a bit of wasted trip. the ZTP pkt is to make soup?

Yes Dr Koh is v good, he is my boy regular PD. But he has retire recently, heard he went on holiday. So disappointed lor. Anyway u can look for another indian Pd, forget his name, also at AMK SBCC, heard also quite good one. Btw, now they open at night time till 9pm, night time is another PD from MT A, my boy see him, i tink quite ok.
ZTP packet for cough, is for soup. Just put the contents into slow cooker for 45 mins, no need to add any other ingredients. 1 packet for 1 day, but my MIL cook 2 bowl using 1 packet, so she keep the 2nd bowl for 2nd day. So literally is 1 packet for 2 dosage
Purifer - at home i have one, but i long time no clean it liao, i tink not functional although i got on it, maybe have to clean it for use again. However, it only works if u put it v near. The brand is mayier, but i get a cheaper range, tink less than $100.

Ellysia,
thanks for the info.
u referring to dr vella I think. Lucas saw him once when he was a baby as I was at my Mum's place which is near AMK. the pd we saw yesterday was dr goh. Quite young but very thorough and took the time to explain. On comparison, my regular pd does not seem to be as thorough. Maybe cos she always have a lot of patients. And my boy seems like to like this pd more, hehe.
Will look around for a purifier this weekend, thanks for the recommendation.

U can check out home-fix, they have many brands.
Yes its Dr Vella.
Dr Koh is v nice and experienced, he took time to explain and make sure no questions although he has long queue outside. But waiting time is reasonable around 45mins usually.
feifei
Try to avoid pan fried, but u can try stir-fry vegs + meat. However i tried before my boy dun really like it so much.
Can try noodles instead of rice? or pasta?
Put red dates, wolfberries etc for taste?
Try to cook soup + rice, different texture than porridge.
Won't lose weight at CC one. CC cook different food mah, maybe char will like the food there. Moreover, they let the kids feed themselves, so they r more interested in eating.

Haha, I hope so too. The last prgnancy was tpo eventful. ;p So far, so good. None of the scares that we experience for no. 1. ;p
Feifei,
My girl also started to be more choosy in what she eats and sometimes prefer vege to meat too. That is when she takes alot of outside food wor. When we go out, she will eat what we eat. We realised that she likes noodles and will actually take noodles when we feed her.

feifei,
i agree with ellysia, i think char will like the food at cc cos everyday its different, a lot more variety, when i peeped at my boy's menu, i see things like fried rice, spaghetti, nasi lemak etc. in fact the teacher told me my boy is always very happy to see the food, keke.
mag,
hello!
thanks for asking, no biggie, just a persistent cough that's been bugging Lucas for mroe than a month. and it keeps making him vomit at night. so the latest pd said it might be related to his cold and gave some new meds. hope he's right.

Tera,
Not sure how my SIL teach him one. He is ok wif all medicine. No issue in feeding. Think favourite is the paradol for fever. sweet sweet one.
He don like tuina. He cry througout the tuina yesterday. Forget to bring gummy so no choice but to let him cry. Futhermore, I almost fall down while walking up the stairs at the traffic light,end up his head head against the floor. Now red red. So scare he will vomit or have high fever.
Yesterday when I fetch him at 430pm, he was walking with the teacher. Not v happy lor. the rest of the kids are playing at the playground.
At SIL place,he also stick to me which is unusual. Hope the CC is not scaring him.
Is ur little one frequent fall sick in the CC?
Ellysia,
So far,cc nvr inform me got ongoing enrichment class going on. hai.

Maybe yr cc dun have any enrichment. If have, they will inform u before u start, cos extra income mah.
feifei
My opinion is tat tots tis age still dun really like too oily food. Their tummy can't tolerate i tink. My boy doesn't really like stir fried.
Tera is right.. my boy cc food menu quite interesting. But i notice fish is not often given, maybe expensive. Only around once per 2 weeks or 3 weeks. But better than no fish, i heard another colleague's cc never give fish.
Also i notice tat they cook the food easy to swallow (not v chunky) and texture easy for kids to scoop up themselves. My boy has been trained using spoon to feed himself, now quite good at it liao. at MIL home sometimes he will practice scooping garlic using spoon (for fun, not eating). Also they learn to go to the sink and wash up using handwash, then take paper to wipe hands and throw at rubbish bin. I tink they will be more interesting in the food once they settle down, plus so many activities at CC make them go hungry v fast so sure will eat one.

Hello!
Finally can log in...
Not happening when both gals are down with stomach flu. Jiejie more poor thing.. vomit what goes in and out but lucky only 7times... now drink bit eat some porridge.
Connie,
OIC... its true that popular CC have to book fast. 1 year in advance usually. Now you send him, if he ok in school withdraw like very bad too oh hehe... but ok you have helper. Even if he really fall sick at CC still have someone to standby at home and you wont have to utilise so much leaves..
In CC, ratio for PG is 1:8 follow by the MCYS guideline. What I know is those famous ones like Eton house, they are expensive because small ratio, 1:4 if I am not wrong but really damn expensive.
I felt CC most basic is hygiene and able to keep them entertained. Basic learning, singing, motor skills to development. When going to Nursery must be able to learn to write n recognise is important. Enrichment still can be found outside and once a week like phonics english learning is more than enough. The rest still need us to teach n guide at home lo..
feifei,
Maybe she is used to outside food taste?
Try pan fried, Grill at home if you have oven. If her milk intake goes down, no worries as now they start to take solid food... all the vitamins n minerals can get from the food she ate. Nicole last time only drink not even 100ml a day. Now out of sudden she drink 350ml a day!
Just a transition on their diet, don't worry. Slowly intro again and don make her dislike the food can leh.
My gals used to be like this too, only want vegetables NO fish no meats.. now they eat back their fish, pork, chicken, egg n everything.. most of all they still love their vegetables.
Looks like alot 2nd time mummy here... any 3rd time??? hehehe

Anyone bb cannot sleep in cc? I tried my boy 2 days, both days cannot sleep during nap time. Thinking of trying him till friday, if cannot adapt will have to change to half day.
These 2 days, he had being sleeping v early. Today from 5pm till now. Think he will sleep thru the nite liao, no need dinner.
Do u think 5 days to test is too long? Should I reduce to 3 days?

Ellysia,
I think so... cant remember where i see or heard from that those popular CC their ratio is very low. u pay for the type of service. That is why they have long waiting list. Even BB not born, parents kiasu till put the wait list leh. Sometime is a no choice game.
Connie,
I guess his is trying to adapt. Nicole 1st day ok stil sleep awhile. 2nd day, she nap 25mins and keep crying (horrible cos lack of sleep) and wanted teacher to carry throughout the whole half afternoon. 3rd day not bad, can sleep 1hr so and slowly...
This week the gals are skipping school as they are just recovering from e stomach flu. Guess next week back to school again re-adjustment for nicole... hai.. 1 week sch 1 week break.... better don fall sick so fast
tinkerbelle,
I guess its terrible 2. Mine started long ago. Now just attend CC worse. Keep cling to me at home, cry at night, cry for nothing during the day, throw tantrums.. ( they are young unable to express)... sometimes really wonder sending them to CC at this age really that BIG impact & trama? Are we wrong to do that? Haha
Its a rainy cooling day!!!

Morning girls.
Ellysia,
1:4, or even 1:5 is very good ratio liao. But tend to pay more for these CCs bah.
Cynthia,
I asked myself that question too after the unsuccessful attempt at the 1st PG and when I see how my girl's current PG is 1:8 and the teachers seem to be barely coping. But my miad is coming and she will spend morning alone with my girl. So I think it is better that my girl goes to PG to minimise time with maid. Haha.
Re: Sleeping on their own
Maid is coming this Sat and the plan is for Lil ZuEn to sleep in her own room with the maid. She is currently sleeping with us in our room. Sometimes in her cot, sometimes on our bed. Hiw do we do the switch huh? Hb and I cannot agree. I wanted to switch immediately while hb says that we should do gradually (e.g 1 day sleep with us, 1 day in her room, 1 day with us, 2 days in her room....). What should be the right way?

My colleague say when plane is flying, give water to your kids so tat they dun feel the air pressure in their ears.
Connie
Dun worry he need some time to adapt to the CC schedule.
feifei
Maybe u give her too much milk so she take less solid food?
My boy only take 150ml of BM x 2 times a day nia.
ZuEn and Cynthia
Ya we paying $430 for our half day cc now.. if full day is $480. On top of tat my boy is taking transport back, so additional $80. Btw my CC dun have waiting list yet, but their tots class r full now tat one gal from the infant class has turn 18mths and joined the tots class.
Connie
Mine is v used to have a short nap in the morning. So when he go CC, sometimes he ended up sleeping while his classmates r doing activities.
Then he is v used to having people pat him and carry him to sleep for day nap lor. So he want the teacher to carry him in the same way too.
We try to let him sleep at night at 1 hr earlier, so tat he can postpone his nap to afternoon when he reach MIL house.

Felicia,
If ever possible, do make sure that the flight is near to their sleeping time. Otherwise, it is really hell. My girl wanted so much to walk around but was restraint to the seat. I brought toys too but didnt managed to enetertain her for long. We watch her favourite DVDs on portable DVD player and that helps. She was also sick then and was given flu medicine that makes her drowsy. That was great too. Haha.
Ellysia,
Ya lor, it is how much you pay though $430 is actually not alot. The really expensive ones are liek $900 to over a $1k. I am only paying $135 per month for 2 hrs session now.

She was also sick then and was given flu medicine that makes her drowsy. That was great too. Haha.
Ellysia,
Ya lor, it is how much you pay though $430 is actually not alot. The really expensive ones are liek $900 to over a $1k. I am only paying $135 per month for 2 hrs session now.

<font color="aa00aa">Ellysia, Thanks for the tips!
ZuEn, your statement "She was also sick then and was given flu medicine that makes her drowsy. That was great too. Haha. " really make me laugh lor. Now thinking maybe i shld get some sleeping pill for my gers? LOL!!
Our flight there is midnite, so shld be ok. Plan to let her sleep when waiting to board the plane, else she'll get all excited when board it, then refuse to sleep. But back was a late afternoon flight. Will try not to let her take her nap on that day. Bad mummy! hehe....</font>

Felicia,
My PD says that it is actually ok to give toddlers flu medicine which cause drowsiness for flight even when they are not sick wor. Or at least he prefers that we do it this way then to give them sleeping pills. Lol! We did that for our HKG trip.
The returning trip from melbourne was alright but it totally screwed up my girl's bedtime cos the flight was at 7pm and Melbourne is 3 hours in from of Sgp. -.o"

Felicia,
I went on SQ. They allowed me to bring water and hot water onboard for my girl. For milk powdwe, loose ones for consumption on plane is Ok. Otherwise, needs to be in sealed, original package. If I rem correctly, Aus only barred the bringing in of diary, fruits and wegetables and meat products. Other things like biscuits still can bring in.

Connie,
is your boy ok (read about his falling down)? just monitor closely, if no vomit or unusually sleepy, it should be ok.
to answer u, yes, my little one does fall sick more often..i rem on the 4th day of starting cc, he already had a cold.
Re napping in cc
my boy also had problems sleeping on his own in cc when he just started. needed to be carried. The cc was asking for his security blanket but he had none. Also, he was sleeping for only half an hour. So what the school advised me to do was to let him sleep earlier at night so that he will wake up earlier in the morning. So we tried waking him up earlier in the mornings and that helped. Then slowly over time, he was ok not to be carried, just needed to be patted. And now, he’ll fall asleep on his own after taking his milk. So give it some time.
Felicia,
wow, perth!! *envious* hehe, have fun!! i can’t advise u much on the flight but I guess zuen’s advice is good, schedule near their nap time. Also, I think dvds would work, at least for my boy, he’s quite addicted to some cartoons now.
me looking forward to my Bintan trip end of this month, hehe.
Zuen,
I think your hubby’s suggestion is better, alternate the sleeping so that u can ease shauna into sleeping with the maid. Cos if she’s used to sleeping with you guys, I dun think she is ready to sleep with someone new at one go. There are nights when my boy will refuse to sleep with my maid (of course then I am very happy, hehe) even tho’ he is very used to her.

<font color="aa00aa">ZuEn, i'm taking SQ too. So i can bring the hot water liao. Me kiasi, afraid when touch down or before boarding my ger want milk, then no hot water, very ma fan lor.
Well, i think my carry in luggage will be all kids things. Btw, can bring on board the portable dvd player? I tot SQ flight got TV on each seat? Me 1st time take SQ, so bit 'sua ku'.hehe...
Tera,
Dont be anvious lah. If i remember correctly u oso go oversea no long ago, rite? Me 1st plane trip with 2 kids, really 'gan cheong'. But land trip, me very experience liao. LOL!
About getting sick in CC, i remember my #1 was also always sick when just enrol her to CC. Heard that in average the kid will need to take 6mths to get 'immune' to all the germs in CC. But my #1 take longer than that. But over the times, her fall sick frequency is reducing, maybe from 3-4times a mth to 2 times a month......
Most importantly must teach them the importance of cleanliness and hygiene. Ask them to wash hand frequently. I even put one bottle of the instant hand sanitizer in my ger's bag and ask her to wash with it when i fetch her from CC. Then when at home, quick quick get her to bath. But if using the instant hand liquid, do make sure the kid wont put the hand in their mouth!</font>

Felicia,
Can bring onboard the dvd player. Yes got personal entertainment system but our girl too young lah. I tried letting her watch "Up" cos I myself wanted to watch and she's totally not interested. -.o"
Did you ask for bassinet? The seat with bassinet has more leg space. Your girl may be too big to sleep in basinnet liao but good to put things. Downside is that you may end up in a different seat as hb and elder girl. Bcos that role usually reserved for mummies with infants.

Zuen,
Training Shauna now to sleep with maid? I guess your hb is right. Must slowly if not side effect how? Bring the Cot over and slowly when she is used to e room, you can let her sleep on bed or mattress. I guess she must get along with the maid first and slowly used to e maid, she don mind sleeping with her. Usually kids are like this. They so used co-sleep, so now if someone familiar is with them, might solve the problem. Slowly ok so wont get backfire.
Tinkerbell,
Well usually terrible 2s don start when they are 2.. .can be earlier! They will out grow slowly the grows and when able to express and understand too..
Connie,
Maybe you wanna check out more details with the teacher? Or you can try let him attend half day for 1st week, then 2nd week full day? Maybe he is still not very used. Some kids is like this. May need slight longer time to sleep there. But if you can avoid putting him full day, why not just stick to half day? After lunch can get the maid to bring him back and he can nap at home. Usually full day afternoon don't have much activities too.
feifei,
Try give her fruits she never eat before? Maybe she curious. Kids very funny, they will get sick of food out of sudden. So sometime slowly intro them also good.

Cynthia,
His first week is half day, thought of starting full day this week but seem like consecutive 3 days cannot nap. If cont, will have to think CC or pg. I like cc cos they have diff variety of lunch so that child had opportunity to eat diff things and their teacher children ratio is smaller than pg.
Terrible 2
How to identify have it started? Mine always v noti one, today touch the rice and touch his head, end up head have lots of rice. Kept crying to carry and won't walk when outside.
