Zen,
welcome back..
hmm maybe it Ethan 1st trip oversea so he not used to it? or the hotel room not "clean" usu children r v sensitive 1... hope he is well now... poor Ethan..
 


Zen, jovia also lost 300g after the trip so i thk it's normal but nxt time do bring along his medicine. are u managed to see a dr there? did u bot travel insurance? shd b able to claim.

Jovia also terrified when i bathe her in jap, mayb too cold or wat, but she is fine when we came back. jz give ethan sometime.
 
Zen

my gal lost 500g too! Next time u go hols, must bring meds. We brought all meds including nurofen. So even when she had high fever, we had med for her. The only one I forgot to bring is the suppository so end up we had to buy from their local pharmacy. Theirs is super strong type, take half every 24hrs.

My gal was also upset during the trip and cried through out the nights. So totally understand how u feel. My boy on the other hand enjoyed it so much that when I ask him if he prefers japan or singapore, he says japan. My gal was also terrified of bathing there. When she came back, she screamed for first day when my hb bathed her. But now that everything is back to the old routine, she's alright with me bathing her.

We went out to eat everyday and we got the sack seat with us. So she was still alright sitting there. We ate in big restaurants and shokudo (food court). Only 1 time we went to those vending machine type of small restaurant. But it was still spacious enough for us to bring in our strollers.
 
Zen

How is Ethan now? Is he feeling better. Bring kid for holiday, medicne is a must to bring along.... Cos we might not be able to get the medicine for them oversea. Give him sometime to adjust back... Try not to let him watch TV middle of the nite if not he will get use to it and continue with it...

Cos I have a frd, the gal alway like to watch TV in the mid of the nite and till now she is still like that.....
 
Donkeymami,

msig. I was also surprised that they cover med treatment in Singapore. Last time I bought from ntuc dun remember got such a cover.

For my first trip with my boy, I brought the nebulizer. :p coz he was prone to bronchitis so we got the meds from pd and brought that along.

4 nov. Throughout my trip, we didn't encounter super hot days till we need to pull up our sleeves. My boy will still wear at least 2 shirts. We were freezing most of the time. Infact on our way back to Tokyo, we passed by a place where it was snowing! We managed to capture it on video.

I didn't buy alot of food in Tokyo this time round coz we bought them in tohoku. Mainly aomori apple products and Sendai gyu tan and edamame products. Gave my ils a can of uni and abalone soup. They say will cook this sun. Hope it's nice.

Next time if u get to go tohoku area, go hasshouku centre in hachinohe. Shiok. It's a wet market cum grocery shopping. Lots of food to try along the way. Even souveneir packs have samples to try. And u can buy the food in the market and BBQ at the centre. Too bad my kids now a bit young. Diff to BBQ with them. I was so reluctant to leave.

Nishimatsuya is also a good place to shop for kids clothes and stuff but have to go at the right season. Bought lots of stuff there too. Would have bought more if it wasn't all winter clothing.
 
piggy, i prefer the biscuit too..jz bot for sourvenir not really like it vy much..i work in jap co my jap colig come they will buy us goodies so gotto eat them quite often.
 
Donkeymami,

happy.gif
 
Looks like those who went on holidays esp to Japan really enjoyed yourself. Missed it so much. I wanna go Hokkoido to ski!

Mashy and Donkeymami, you mentioned your girls were afraid to bathe in Japan. Was it because you used the hose to shower them?

Am going for a nearby get away to Penang after convincing my hubby that a holiday with Sophie us possible. Just got to keep our expectations low and be flexible.
 
piggy

You're putting Kyler in Learning Vision when he hits 18 months? That would be the playgroup?

I'm looking for suitable playgroups near my workplace or MIL's. But many don't accept 18 months kids, or are those HDB void deck childcare centres. Me being typical KS parent, wanna try to get a so-called better school for Sam.

How much did you pay to register? Must buy uniform, books, etc etc whatnot hor? School fees?
 
Jul,
ya puttin him in LV when he hit 19mth cos CNY so puttin him in Mar... it a CC actually but their prog quite gd... huh i thot playgr accept 18mth onwards?? my area is mostly full liao.. for LV every outlet the fee may diff leh... depend on the branch.. the branch i goin cost $1k be4 sub.. need to buy uniform nia.. book no need.. n a $4 insurance. n mus add GST wor.. so after subsidy is $770(inclusive GST) heartbleed...
 
piggy

Wah!!!! $700+ per mth ah? Can faint hor?

How much is the unifirm? I think would need at least 3 sets right? I'm looking at the Novena branch, actually.

Some places, esp those very near my MIL's place, only accept from 30 months onwards. Think they don't really have playgroup lah. They don't want the hassle of taking care of so many small babies I guess
 
Jul,
yes can faint.. but compare to those branded 1 alr consider ok... like mindchamp $1480 be4 sub leh.. Pat Sch house $1300.. hmm some outlet is cheaper llike NUS 1 only $500 after Sub so u mus check ard..
 
Just remembered it's time for ovann to take his jab this month .... for those following Dr Ong at his new clinic at Mt A, do we still call & make appt like before?
 
pegsfur

Yup, same procedure as before. And it's more crowded now coz there are 3 doctors there using a smaller clinic
sad.gif


Aiyah I may need to go soon coz Sam's sick again. Very sian. He's aws getting sick nowadays
sad.gif
 
errrhh yes leh? :p i think even worse now.. 3 pd docs in one clinic.

u better call. i think he's on holidays from nov 20 to 1st dec. just went yesterday girl high fever.. but he is there in the afternoon leh? last time tmc. he onli have morning clinic
 
jul/ smurfy,

Ggggrrrr ... ok, prepared to wait then. Oh, he's on leave soon? Hmmm .... it's ok to drag awhile for the jab rite cos hubby may not hv time to us there these 2 weeks. May hv to wait till Dr Ong returns then.
 
smurfy

hehe funny that we both mentioned the exact same thing!

pegsfur

Hey wanna go together? Just for some company haha

Actually I booked 19 Nov to take the MMR jab. But now I feel like saving my leave & gog in Dec. Coz ILs gog to Aussie with SIL & Hubs & I sort of gotta take leave to look after Sam. Might as well schedule the jab then.
 
piggy
