Saw this news from South China (again):
China hospital disposes of live baby: report
A hospital in south China has suspended four medical workers for mistakenly diagnosing a stillbirth and disposing of a baby that was alive, state press said Friday.
Health authorities in Guangdong province have launched an investigation into the incident on October 26 at the Nanhai Red Cross Hospital in Foshan city, the Beijing News said.
Liu Dongmei -- eight months pregnant -- had been rushed to the hospital with internal bleeding and stomach cramps.
She later had an emergency birth, but the baby was neither breathing nor crying when it came out and its skin had turned purple, the report said.
Believing it was dead, the medical team disposed of the child but did not follow proper hospital procedures, it added.
When Liu's sister-in-law asked to see the body around 30 minutes after birth, she was handed a yellow plastic bag containing the infant and found it was still alive, said the Foshan News, a local website.
"I opened the plastic bag and saw the baby's hands and feet moving, the stomach was going up and down and air bubbles were coming out of his mouth," the paper quoted her as saying.
She was further shocked when she saw the baby was a boy -- not a girl as the family had been told, it said.
According to the Foshan News, nurses had told the family the child was a girl in an effort to blunt the blow of its death.
In China, baby boys are often viewed as more precious than girls, as many families can have only one child as part of the nation's population policy and desire a male heir.
Following the discovery, the newborn was rushed to intensive care where he remains in stable condition.
Officials at the hospital and Foshan's Nanhai health bureau refused to comment on the incident when contacted by AFP.
China's healthcare system -- once widely praised for improving the health of millions -- is now panned as costly, underfunded and providing shoddy treatment, especially in poorer regions.
Liu and her husband are seeking to sue the hospital for 300,000 yuan ($45,000), the Beijing News said.
The head of the maternity ward, a doctor and two nurses have been suspended pending the results of the investigation, it added.

I gave Lucien tofu since last month. Sometimes when we having miso soup in Jap restaurant, I will give him bits of tofu. There's a recipe on tofu in the First Food book. And I've given him soy and ikan bills stock many months back.
Just started introducing egg yolk this week. I read it's better touse yolk of hard boil egg than to separate the egg white from the yolk before cooking. Cos some egg white will still stick to the surface of the yolk. I just mash up the yolk and put inside the porridge. And try to get those omega 3 eggs. Babies can eat yolk everyday till age 2 from what I read. Lolzz

Leon, Rach: The Philips steamer & blender is a great tool for me. Have been using for about few months liao, I usually made 14 cubes (a week supply to freeze) of puree for lunch and dinner. Very easy to use, but mine got stain lei (from pumkin, carrot or sweet potato) - does not bother me lah. I just make sure I wash off the vegs. Find it a good investment. I even use to steam tofu for bb.
Hi Rach, KTeo, thanks for the comments. Should not have any regrets of getting one. Cant take it anymore...
Rachel, I went to metro causeway pt just now & saw them selling bundle set of blender steamer, plate, sipping cup, 3 bottles @ $200 or the usual box of blender & plate set @ $199.
If it's online, how much is the price? Mind to share here or I email u?
Plan to go taka tmr to find out more cos I have voucher to spend. But if online price is better, dont mind getting it.
Thanks mummies for your valuable comments & help!

Morning mummies, I need help... Noticed that my boy has been doing this shoulder twitch for the past few days. His shoulder will shrug up to his ear and he will drop his head to his shoulder. All his other behaviour are normal and he is happy. Is this normal? I'm very worry.
morning mummies!
end of long weekend and back to slavery! super not in the mood sia... i wonder if i landed in the right job not...
need to rant abit here..... paiseh ar! something happened last week when i was in beijing... my hubby had an argument with mil over Janelle. Cos mil felt tired looking after her and even said nasty comments about us not paying her on time (we usually pay her end of the month, but sometimes, overdue by 2-3 days than she can ask why last month never pay etc). she also commented that we pay her 300 is not the market rate! biang, in the 1st place she initially even told us dun need to pay loh! moreover J is her own granddaughter leh... isnt it a bliss to look after your own grandchild ? moreover, J is only there on weekdays day time loh! how much you want us to pay you ? if she treat this as a job, than her mentality is totally wrong! she can even said that looking after J is we 欠 her de... She even commented that ever since she look after J, she dont have her life anymore.. cannot go travelling, cannot go out with friends.. well, in the 1st place, she should be aware of the lost of freedom before deciding to look after for us right ? Most importanly, she said she cant cope with housework & baby at the same time blah blah...i can understand her.. cos fil and bil are very dependent on her. they never wash plates/ cups at home de. Dinner must be served de. So i can understand her frustration to maintain the house and look after J at the same time.
Then after their argument on friday night, i went pick J up on Sat, can see mil like not very happy/ enthu. When hb told me when i reach home on sat, i cried... cos to me, i dont care what happen between the mother & son.. but pls dun ever let me find out that my J is neglected or wat. i scolded hb cos i told him, he is clearly aware of us needing mil to look after J.. why must he let mil have the opportunity to say all these nasty and hurting things ? though i not present at their argument, but after hearing it, i also dont feel good. but what can i do ? hb dun wan my mum to take care of J (cos he felt mum cant handle 3 kids), we dont want to send J to infant care. Than there really isnt anyone else for J liao.
So the improvement will be that hb will go pick J from mil place everday by 6 (so that mil got sufficient time to cook and rest but importantly is that hb felt since mil can made such remarks, her heart to take care of J wholeheartedly is no longer there than for what leave J there till 8), than J will follow us for dinner (hb & I usually take our dinner before picking J up), suggested part time maid for mil but not sure if she will take the idea.
arrgh! imagine you reach home, the 1st thing you hear is all these craps!
paiseh for ranting on a blue tuesday ... cos after all these, it really affects my work as i am seriously thinking if i landed myself in the correct job not. all i want is a stable job with good pay, less stress... but in my current job, i need to travel at times, my bonus is heavily tied to the goals and objectives. so if i dont meet my goals and objectives, i can ended up with pathetic bonus. moreover, bonus structure here isnt that fantastic... work is stressful cos need to meet goals and objectives... arrgh!! i really dunno sia...

Jojo - observe him for a while ba.... maybe is a new trick that they discover ....
For J, i realised that she like to blink her left eyes.. dunno learn from where de. i also asked the same question of dunno is there something wrong with her eyes or wat... just need to monitor hopefully will go off by her own.
time flies.. J is hitting 8 months soon... and has reached certain milestone... like crawling forward to reach for an object, listen to instruction.. when i tell her YES/ NO, she is able to understand. scold her, she will tilt her head down and not look at me. When i told her go pick that object, she will crawl towards it. She is able to cruise alittle while standing and holding on to the table. able to differentiate between hi-five, clap hands and goodbye.. after a hard day at work, it is really a bliss to spend quality time with her.. she also motivated mummy to Jia you as well..

limlim- sigh, you can ask the agent to talk to her lah but I doubt she'll dump her bfren. I spoke to my maid about safe sex and responsibility and how I'd have no choice but to send her home if she gets pregnant and the damn fool goes and gets pregnant that weekend. Nice wrong, mean wrong. I've decided it's a flawed system and there's nothing I can do about it [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif]

Dazel: I started to bring my boy out more often. But he's too curious and refuses to sleep. Usually i put pupsik or if maid tags along, she carries him via sarong (she dun like to push pram). Yah, the times he slept are in the car. But lucky he din make a fuss when he's kaikai-ing with us.
dolphingal,
Can't lor, put in pram & push no use. That's y if want go out hv to see timing.
Airmez,
Same lor, no matter how tired refuse to sleep, if u use pupsik he sleeps? but what position? I only know how to use the side and he upright, this position cannot sleep leh.
