Ruixian,
I think babies like to explore and find it fun to scratch head and behind ears. Maybe it's interesting with a piece of something there (that's the ear) and the head with hair.
Now Meredith suddenly sometimes like to use her hand to knock her forehead... I think got sound, so she keep banging herself.
usually she will do all these when bf-ing.

Ruixuan,
My bb has also been scratching her head or just behind her ears and I recently noticed some red scratch marks. Cham.. I’m such a terrible mom to notice it so late. I’ve been wondering if it is her hair that irritates her, or like what other mummies say, teething? Growth spurt? Some more still balding at the back. Funny le.. I dint see this happened to my #1.
Rinku.
Ya, let me know if the method works.. since this advice came from a pd. =)
Ling,
Haha.. everyone noticed her double chin. Ai ya, I should have asked her to look up and lift her chin before I snapped that photo. Hehe.. she was very happy that day, her sister was playing with her on CNY day 1. ^^

if you're taking for cough/ sore throat, can take a teaspoon of manuka and just leave it in mouth. swallow a bit @ a time. if u're taking daily, can use warm or cool water. don't use boiling water, cos it'll kill the UMF.

Kept forgetting to share here.
Saw in Jurong Point B1. A pushcart selling bubble tissue from Korea. Size of a 20 cent coin, when touch water will be as big as face towel. 1 packet of 100 cost about $6. Buy 2 pkts at $10.
The interesting is that can be used as wipes but without any chemical and eco-friendly. Can be reused and wash many times.
So can use to wipe face, body,etc. The sales even suggest after using on face,etc, can use to wipe floor. So not need to buy refill for magic cleaner. Just finish using on bb, then wash then mop floor or window.
The liquid to use is any u can find, e.g. mineral water, tap water. So when on the move, just use drinking water. Just need a small cap of mineral water.
They sell the water dispenser, but no need lah.
The price is about the same as baby wipes too.
I heard NTUC going to sell too.

Going Up! 7 Pointers to Lift a Bad Mood
By Dr. Maoshing Ni - Posted on Mon, Aug 27, 2007,
No one can live a long and healthy life without the will to go on; sometimes mood swings can make us feel that life is too much for us.
A bad mood not only gives you a gloomy outlook, it also lowers your immune function, leading the way to illness. Here are some suggestions to lift your mood, your spirit, and your health.
1. A Laughing Matter
"Laugh Therapy," pioneered by Norman Cousins, has turned out to have real substance. Research has discovered that laughter and joy boost immune functions, especially the production of the natural killer cells that help defend the body from illness and cancer.
Laughter also increases the release of endorphins - compounds that give you a sense of well-being - in your brain. Without a doubt, joyful people liver longer and healthier lives. So read your favorite comics, watch your favorite comedies, and laugh it up!
2. Amino Acid for Restored Mindset
When an imbalance or deficiency is creating a bad mood, the Europeans use supplements of a natural compound found in human cells to regulate mood and restore a healthy mindset. SAMe (S-adenosyl-L-methionine) is produced from methionine, an amino acid that plays a role in the production of uplifting neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine.
One study indicated that SAMe worked on patients who had unsuccessful results with conventional antidepressants. To get a boost from SAMe, take a supplement combining it with vitamins B6 and B12.
3. Hands-On Healing
Human touch increases the production of endorphins, growth hormone, and DHEA, all of which lengthen your life span and lower the negative impact of stress. Studies have found that patients who are regularly touched recover faster than those who are not touched. So give someone a hug and feel both of your moods improve.
4. Boost Your "Youth Hormones"
You don't need pills to flood your body with a rejuvenating flood of growth hormones. Research has found that doing squats and leg presses will greatly increase your natural production of the "youth hormone". Increased growth hormone translates to an elevated mood, among other physical benefits. Keep it up with weight training, knee bends, push-ups, and rowing.
5. Take a Bracing Breath
Breathing correctly is important for dispelling the toxins and wastes from your body; in fact, it is estimated that we expel only about 30 percent of toxins in our bodies through the bowels and bladder-the rest is all respiratory. Breathing is also a great way to clear your mind, boost your energy, and improve your mood. Practice deep, slow, rhythmic, breathing daily with mind-body disciplines such as tai chi, yoga, qigong, and meditation.
6. Smell the Joy
Research has shown that smell has a definite impact on our bodies and minds. When you stimulate the olfactory nerves inside your nose, you activate the limbic system of your brain, which is associated with moods and memory. This concept is instrumental to aromatherapy, a natural health tradition that makes use of the healing powers of plants with strong scents.
Aromatherapy recommends treating depression with jasmine, eucalyptus for exhilaration, and grapefruit to increase alertness and joy. Just put a dab of the essential oils from these plants on your temples, back of your neck, or acupressure points. Another option? Boil the herb in water and inhale the steam through your nose.
7. Feel Fine with Flowers
There is a reason that flowers are the traditional get-well gesture. Colorful flowers have a powerful influence on moods; they can uplift a patient's mood and even combat stress. One study found that during a five-minute typing assignment, people sitting next to a flowering bouquet were more relaxed than those who sat near foliage-only plants.
I hope these tips help the good feelings flow! I invite you to visit often and share your own personal health and longevity tips with me.
May you live long, live strong, and live happy!
