Hmm.. my boy at 2yo can speak sentences too.. i think cos last time he grew up with my niece (1/2 yo older).. so he kinda mimic her when she speaks.. perhaps try to bring him out for more playdates and interactions.. they tend to learn more from kids i feel..

Looks like there are really pros and cons when it comes to childcare. What I worry most is actually the falling sick part. Cough and flu I still can accept, but I see some kids coming down with stomach flu and hfmd so often. Really quite pitiful!

Its a phrase that cant be avoided. .. give more vitamins to build up immunity first...

My gal immunity was "train" by her kor kor .. she was a baby at home when kor kor started cc n bring back the germs...

So by the time my gal enter cc she is immune n dun fall sick so easily...

Actually I very 心理不平衡 coz since my boy started PN in July, he fallen ill twice. Both time gotten it from his cousin staying with us. First time cousin 'brought' back hfmd. He is was still v active and mild fever subside in 2days. My boy didn't get the ulcer but had high fever for 5days! Then this recent episode, cousin had cough and fever for 5days. Boy high fever only subside after 8days! I knw I shouldn't feel like that coz it's family staying together. But but....

Fishes only attack when u have food in your hand or you are hovering above their nest and they see it as u are invading their space or stealing their egg and they will get aggressive to protect the nest

Btw if u going snorkeling please do it in pair !!! Never leave each other .. My Ex colleague drown there last year cos she and hubby break away from each other

Yeah.. saw the news. Wonder how she drown. It makes me worry. Thinking if I should get a life vest. At least if I am in trouble I will not pull hubby down together.

Yes, I agree! That's why my hubby refused to put the kids in childcare centres. I also feel I should leave the vacancies for working mummies who need it more than me. So I usually enrol my kids into kindergartens after they turn 3 because they are much stronger by then. Kindergarten means shorter hours so not many chances to catch viruses home. Kids who are down with fever, runny nose or cough are usually sent home. Likewise when my girl fell sick, I kept her home for a week after she had recovered so won't spread to her friends. Pros and cons..

I understand what you mean! I used to feel this way when I had #1. But now I am more relaxed when it comes to #2.

HFMD is really a torture for both kids and mummies. My girl caught it before when I tried to let her go to childcare. Fever at 42 degrees for a week, she cannot even get out of bed because she was so weak. More than 30 ulcers clustered around her throat and she couldn't even swallow milk. My hubby was so mad he withdrew her immediately. Never even complete the two weeks trial. Lol

Kindergarten days was ok. Maybe because shorter hours and the school controlled it well. Cleaned and sanitised the classroom few times a day. Touch wood.. Had a heng heng journey throughout! Phew...

Superman? How?
Click to expand...
u know how superman fly right

just put your hand like that ... and the strong current will sweep you away lolz

but bear in mind if the current allow u to do that ...mean the surface aso can be choppy so swimming back to shore can be a tough...

so word of advice : do what you think you can handle but dun be too confident :)

Morning mummies,
Wanted to share w u all? Have u all heard of chia seeds? It seems very good for us even to normal people.. It has a very high antioxidant and high omega. From the sales people, is like fish oil except that is a plant extract. Alternative DHA for vegetarian.. Most importantly, don't have the fishy smell. My mum bought 1 big pack if it, for her own consumption. So every time I go, I will put 1 spoonful into my water bottle, it is tasteless, just like a seed that we find in dessert that's look like tadpole. Is very tiny, like sesame seed. It can be toss into rice, soup, yogurt and drinks etc...
Anyway, I find that this maybe our alternative to our yucky supplements, that whole family can eat. Good for elderly w heart prob too..

I found some link, maybe u all can read through..

Anyone going to gynae soon, can help to ask gynae about this?

From where you buy the chia seeds?
 
i brought my chia seed from NTUC. There are news sometimes back that a certain brand of Chia seed is being recalled.

I stop taking since I am pregnant. B4 that, I was mixing them into my yogurt or my overnight roll oats
 
I'm eating them everyday now leh. I add them to my water. It really soften the stools alot. The multi vit I eating causing constipation. Nv ask gynae bout it, so far so good. Its high in vit b, iron, calcium. Supposedly its a superfood.

But he didn't get it from sch! Which everyone thought he did. He got it from staying at home... Where it should be safe and clean. Sigh.... Can only blame on his weak immunize system

Ya, the aunty say can help lose weight.. Cos she drink w plain water too.. Then she don't feel so hungry, so tends not to eat too much.. Lol
The vitamin in it seems like our supplement right? Have whatever we need from omega, vit b, iron, calcium..

Like that if we eat this, can we don't take our yucky supplements? Lol...Wahahaa

we will start to let the 4 yo sleep on her own after we are back from bali trip in her own room...these few days keep prepping her...

when little sis is born, for the first few months, i will probably take the 4 yo room and sleep with baby. the 4 yo will then sleep with daddy until baby can sleep throughout the night...hopefully by then, we could secure our own flat already... then each girl will have their own room!

Yup..apparently it's very good. I take them but not as regularly as I ought to. Usually put them in salad, pasta or my oats..you can find them at the organic section in ntuc. There was once they brought in sachets which I found very good. Can bring to work and just add in one packet into your food. But now I can't seem to find the sachet packaging..only the big packet kind. If anyone knows where to get pls let me know too! :)
