elazy, my bb also in ifc. No regrets putting him in at all! V happy in fact. He's been in there since end Jun.. so far only fall sick once and tt's cos spread by gor gor. As i was sharing here.. i think there's more chances of #2 catching viruses from #1 then from IFC! My IFC teacher-babies ratio used to be v good.. 1:2. But now become 1:3 as the just took in twins. Can see the teachers busier.. but still ok so far. No complains.. except my poor boy got some insect bites on his legs.. dunno from where also...
Piggy,
So agree.. Life is like that.. But since I am in no hurry, will continue to look for ones that I truly want.. Haha!! =)
E lazy,
Thanks!! =)
Actually if you have ILs to look after your kid, don't put bb in IFC. Especially when they are so young.. Bb in IFC tend to fall sick easily.. Then you have to take more childcare leave which doesn't look good.. And spend more money.. Of course with kids we are entitled.. Most grandparents will spoil their kids.. My #1 didn't fall sick at all during her first year.. Then go school, start having runny nose and coughs..
For social skills, let them go cc after 18 months..
Yoti,
Good luck in your job hunt!!
Haiz 4 years or 10, some employers don't really feel appreciative one.. No point working for such a boss.. If you look for stat board jobs, people might be leaving as bonuses are usually out in may, June.. =)

oh elazy, just to share my special case for #1. I sent #1 to cc when he was 20mths. But he cry till vomit everyday n got so traumatised that principal suggest us to drop out 1st. We spent the next 1 yr bringing him to parents-acc classes.. cos he was so traumatised that he go to any class/fren's place.. he will cling on to us n cry dun wanna go in. So after all these 'hardships' going to sch.. this #2.. we die die wanna put in IFC to save us such woes! Didi is a socialble baby now.. who carry also can.. see who also smile!

Hi mummies,
thanks for sharing with me whether ro go IFC or not. Really quite torn. Stay at home leh, he cry also my ILs carry, dun cry also my ILs carry. Now become everytime also want ppl to carry, which i dun like! Now maybe still can take it, but when grow bigger and heavier, pls, who has the strength to keep on carry???? aiyoh.. and say them liao, they also one ear in one ear out... sian... I suspect things are gg to get worse after he start solids, cos they may try to give him all kinds of junk food to eat. Headache ah...
Elmo,
Thanks for sharing ur #1 experience. I shared in thir forum previously, my bb dun like too noisy and crowded places, he will cry non-stop. So i scared wait put him in CC after 18 mths, he also will become traumatised ah... Thats why i thot shd start him early hor... now bb stage still blur blur, so easier to bluff rite... haha
Bbgoh,
Its more I have to convince my hubby. Once he ok, my ILs cant say anything.
Actually do IFCs have half day? Or maybe let him try half day? And when u all visit IFCs, what are the things to look out for?

yes they provide half day service.
gerry
actually IFC Bb not fall sick oftenly. my #1 last time seldom catch any cough or runny nose. she also seldom fall sick, only once got HFMD but queit mild. if they have build up strong immune system & get use to the envi, when turn 18mth go CC ll less fall sick too.

Thanks, Bbgoh. A fren of mine put her son in IFC too, and she was sharing with me how they trained him to fall asleep on his own. By his 7th month, he can sleep on his own with minimum coaxing, which really impressed me lor. Now, my bb needs ppl to carry him, rock + pat him before he can sleep. Plus, she say her son is also very sociable.
e_lazy,
yes cos they r train mah like my #1 be4 i sent him to CC i train him to sleep on his own at home but at my PIL house he sleep v little leh n they rely on the maid to train him to sleep but after he goes CC he is more independent more well train whihc is gd for workin parents like us but fallin sick hor depend 1 some infant r more prompt to fallin sick so it a risk u gotta take also...

Bbgoh,
Oh ic.. Just that my friends who send bb to IFC tend to fall sick often.. One of them first week had bronchiolitis.. Very poor thing cos he was coughing and had lots of phlegm.. And another one always LS one..
But like what piggy said, I think it is more bb dependent..
Actually behavior like sleeping and independence is also very much bb dependent one.. Comparing both my kids, my #2 is very easy to sleep train but my #1 is quite rebellious.. Both brought up in almost the same way..

Mum05,
My baby also takes many days to move his bowels. Already seen 3 Pds and all say it's quite a common problem. Some tell me to give bb prune juice, another say to put a teaspoon of white sugar in water let him drink, massage his tummy, anus, exec rise his legs etc.. Max days he didn't pass motion
is 12 days. Yesterday I just insert the medicine as he did not pass for 5 days. Hai.... My #1 don't have this problem last time. But the Pd says most would be better after starts solid.

Piggy,
Thanks!! I have to wait for HR.. Cos salary has not been negotiated and I think have to go for health screening and paper work stuff.. So I am hoping I have at least 2 weeks at home to be with my babies..
That's true.. #1 goes to school and according to the teacher, she eats very fast and has no problems with food.. But at home, she doesn't eat much and likes to suck her food and not swallow.. Arghz.. I try to make her seat with us to eat, but she seems to hate eating at home..
Smiggleprincess,
Thanks!!
Pink,
Thanks!! Long time no hear from you.. How are u? How is ur little C?

bbgoh,
Aiyoh. I thk ur PIL and hubby shd understand that u need to take care of 2 kids leh. And I agree with u, abit paiseh to ask ppl to help. haiz... can explain to ur hubby nicely?
Mum05,
At the IFC, when the bb cry, the teachers dun carry him immediately. If the bb uses pacifier, they will pass him the pacifier to suck first, then pat his back and buttock to let him fall asleep. I'm gg to try this method at home, but somehow i feel that if my ILs dun cooperate with me and still insist on carrying non-stop, its only a waste of my effort. haiz...
