smurfy,
my son used to have this horizontal line behind his head too, like no hair on the line. my nanny said this is "姑姑缘“. And it's quite true, my son is now very close to my SIL, his gugu.

Thanks smurfy, shall read up more on fake measles.
The maid was with me for 1 month 2 days. For the first 3 weeks, she was ok. Then, on the 4th week, she started to cry everyday at my nanny's place. At first my nanny pitied her, kept telling me not to be harsh on her. I said ok. Last wkend, my husband talked to the maid then everything seems ok. The maid was happy. We even went to Downtown east. Then, come Monday and Tuesday, she started to cry at my Nanny's place and said alot of things.
My husband and I discussed, feel that she's emotionally unstable, so decided to send her back.

hooo.. i nvr heard of stepping on big ang ku kweh too... sometimes these traditional prac really very very interesting.. if hv a chance, it wld be fun to hv a 'course' on such traditions! hahaha.
actually hor.. was tinking.. seems like this yr, our bbs' lunar birthday is before the actual calendar birthday... but so, can they eat anything they shld avoid before they turn 1yo?
i tink i will juz adhere to the shoes frm wai-po...not doing with clothes or ang ku kweh or watever else.. hehe. dun tink will let my girls pick items on their bday (lunar or calendar) too.

My verdict:
just for laughs
1. Calculator - swindler
2. Ruler - prison warden
3. Book - librarian
4. Drumstick - glutton, sure going to be fat
5. $$ - swindler or gambler
6. Stethoscope - hopefully the dr and not patient.

I am actually expecting my 2nd bb. 2 mths now, though still breastfeeding my number 1.
I intended to introduce formula milk only when he is one yrs old. But the pregancy came before I could do so... So now very tiring and painful to pump as pregnancy will cause he breast to be tender. And it has also greatly reduce my supply.
Now I am caught with not enough milk for him as he still can't accept powder milk.
And I also suffer light spotting. The doctor said though research says that there shld be no prob to breast feed during pregnancy, it is very straining for the mother's body to do 2 things at one time. Some actually have miscarriage as their body can't cope.
So I would think that it will be good to plan ahead on the milk arrangement before you get pregnant.
