ANY MALAY MUMS HERE?

Naddy

Whoa, tu bag mahal tu! I'm waiting for something from kate spade too, thru a spree. Haii...mahal seh.

Actually if yr friend's sis is kind enuff, u can use her address & have stuff shipped over while you pay for it, hehehe... That's what I did for the CP spree in which I asked you along for.
 


hihi gerls,
seems like these past few days i have never been busier.

i just got back from the clinic.
after stomach flu last friday now faiq is down with bad cough and running nose.
tak pernah pernah he sakit so he's super cranky.
there is slight wheeze in his lungs but no cause for worry yet.
hopefully he can get well with the med given and wont need to use the nebuliser.
luckily his daddy took 2 days of childcare leave to help me out at home.
i am EXTREMELY ANGRY with my fil cos this is all his fault!!!!

zu,
sarah dah baik from flu?
if faiq dah baik i sure wana go fidgets.
 
babylee
KARVOL
I dah beli but belum use lagi....will try out the aladin

zu/naddy
Me waited for my 1st son abt 5 yrs later after marriage baru leh conceive....rezeki walau macam mane pon datang jugak....sabar je
 
zu - 3 years marriage dah panic? i think normal lah. when i couldnt conceive after 2 months of trying, macam2 i dah terfikir. hehehee..

anyway, on of my friends couldnt conceive after 7 years of marriage. she was supposed to adopt a baby but the birth mother changed her mind when the baby was born. after that, she planned to go on IVF. but, one month before her IVF starts, she managed to conceive naturally. alhamdulillah! now she's a proud mother of 3. after the first one was born, the next 2 just popped out in quick succession. amazing.

smalldreams - pasal bag: nak tak? nak tak?

lynzi - kesiyaaan faiq. tapi, kadang2 penyakit tu, kalau nak datang, datang jugak.

my daughter now, dia punya batuk and phlegm dah kurang. i think, despite the ridiculous consultation fees, next time kalau my anak batuk2 teruk lagi, i bawak jugak dia pergi jumpa paediatrician baby bear tu.
 
++ynzi

sabar...sabar beb...memang susah & feel very low bila jaga baby sakit...but what to do ..it happens. Just hope he gets well soon!

naddy

eh tak mo lah..that bag is way over my budget! Lagipon I prefer simpler ones... :p

I've been bringing adam to his PD since birth. Chicken pox, DPT, rotavirus semua jab kat PD.But this time MMR, i've booked an appt at the poly. it's free, and consultation baru 4.60. I hope adam doesn't cry bloody murder... anyway am quite sure the docs at poly are good too kan? kalau tak takkan leh jadi doctor seh...hehe

But I agree..for coughs and sniffles, bring kids to paedi. medication is somewhat more effective and insya-Allah diagnosis, more accurate than average GP.
 
smalldreams - i brought my daughter to the polyclinic for all her jabs. the one who gives the jabs are the nurses, not doctors.

but, i always feel better when nurses give jabs rather than doctors. dulu, i was hospitalised at kk for dehydration. and a young, handsome doctor came to administer the drip. tiga kali dia cucuk, masih tak jumpa my veins. nasib baik dia hensem. kalau tak.. finally, a nurse helped to find my vein to cucuk the needle for the drip. the nurse did say that because i was badly dehydrated, my veins have collapsed jadi susah nak carik. i dunno if she was just covering for the doctor lah.
 
Lynzi, her running nose getting worst la.. Today much thicker w green slime. haha.. gross nye aku!! anyway, i tink i need to bg her bak to the doc. This time unno how much kene ketuk plak!

Naddy, yah lar.. told her its okie.. My aunt pun waited abt 7 yrs tau baru dapat baby. Then now gt 4! I tink her MIL and relatives tak habis2 shoot dorang.. Gaknye dats y dia stress tu.

Abt jab kan, i also rather the nurse yg jab daripada doc.. esp the trainees. Ade tu nak jab pun bole mengigil!! haha.. Kite yg nak jab, dia ikut seram kape? !
uhoh.gif
 
Zu, Naddy

Ouh... nurse yang jab eh?? Alamak if I tell hubby I think I surely kena marah. Dah lah I told him I booked appt at poly for MMR jab dia dah bising2. It's OK to have MMR anytime in the 15th month right? Not necessarily after his 15th month birthday?
 
morning mummies..
lama i tak singgah sini.. now tgh musim sakit eh.. ramai mummies and bb sakit.. to All mummies and bb yg sakit tu, i doakan hopefully u all cepat2 sembuh..

anak sakit ni mak yg pening.
worse part is i think i oso starting to have running nose and cough after i keep sucking out faiq's mucus with the pigeon nose cleaner.
dahlah for the past 2 days i work early morning...sampai pupils tanya...teacher u sick ah? if u sick dont need to come lah...sighhhhh

north west mummies,
anyone wanna open up their house for playgroup cum gathering?
dat time zu did so now macam dah lama we did not do this.
 
Guess I'm in the same boat as you guys. My sons pun tengah batuk teruk with phlegm. I haven't been sleeping well for the past week. The younger one start dulu then jangkit the brother. Now, my 1st is on 3 days mc since yesterday.

Sri, welcome to the club. Sini semua friendly friendly cuma kadang kadang I mcm biskut. Kejap ada kejap takde.
 
sri, welcome!!

It's the time of the year again huh!! Everybody is sick. Mak budak pun ikut sakit juga!
Me also feeling a bit under the weather. Macam very tired gitu, esp with the extra kilos me and baby in tow has been putting.

Got bad news from my gynae, Dr Jazlan. He will be moving to private practice end of Aug, so he has to transfer me to another gynae. Haiz, tak boleh ke tunggu another 2 weeks for me to give birth : ) But he said that if my baby too big, will go for C-sect on 28 Aug and he will be there to do it. Hmm, waiting for next check up to confirm.

Styli,

Wow, got waiting list? For toddlers age or all levels? So popular the school!
 
madem,
dr jazlan is going where?

ladies,
any good pd to recommend?
i dont mind travelling.
i know there is this one malay pd somewhere in sengkang or punggol but i'm not sure where.
heard that he's good.
i like dah tak boleh sabar seeing faiq so sick and in pain.
his mucus keep flowing and he cough until his eyes red red and tearing.
 
smalldreams,
nope never get the flea market lot. ggrrr.. I got lots of unwanted stuff.

mademoiselle,
its full for 18 mths level. dunno abt other levels. I think its popular coz its' relatively new compared to others? hmph! will wait for vacancy once the older ones get promoted but is not will find other centres urgent. Now not that urgent coz my aunt still can babysit.

IVF: nowadays the celebrities getting twins must be coz of IVF. so jealous.. I likes twins but no twin genes!

Gatherings: haven't been going for mummies gatherins in a while!
 
smalldreams, apasal plak hb nak marah2? cakap ler u helping him to save some monies! :p actually poly also not bad la.. most of the nurses are very experienced.

sri, welcome here!! tak kisah la single mother ke, young mother ke, experienced mother ke.. haha!! sumer welcome hre to chat. bukan mother pun ble!
happy.gif


lynzi, i dun mind open up my hse again.. anyway, rmh nie slalu da jadi mcm warzone. tapi i rasa2 baik we wait till the 'sick' season is over.. kalo tak, spread sana sini pun tak tau smp bile ble baik.
 
lynzi - have you tried baby bear clinic? blk 849, woodlands st 82. i'm very pleased, as you can see. my daughter, selalunya kalau batuk2, hingus meleleh, i bawak pergi polyclinic (kalau rajin tunggu 2 jam) or the gp near my block. but this time round, i asked my husband to take her to baby bear because my sis has been taking her children there and she swears by it. alhamdulillah, instead of the normal 2 weeks that my daughter normally takes to recover frm her cough, she took only 4 days this time round. so, try lah.

smalldreams - yeah. dont worry. nurses ARE better at doing this. besides, the nurses who deal with babies at polyclinics ONLY see babies for their normal jabs. so, imagine lah, tiap2 hari berpuluh2 babies dorang cucuk. confirm expert one.

babylee - memang betul. kalau doctor tu tak hensem, i dah maki hamun dia agaknye. sampai lebam2 my tangan dia cucuk.

styliciously - twins? errrr.. no way for me. i dont have twin genes also. i can barely cope with one baby.. kalau twins, you'll just see my skeleton moving around in a zombie-fied mode. i really respect those with twins and can take care of them full-time. BUT, once they are bigger, it'll be so nice lah.
 
naddy,
i love to many kids of my own. so if 2 at one go also best kan? eheh... then must deploy all my resources n get help from my family. lol..
 
nite nite mummies all,

sorrilah ye!! tak logged in the past weekend.. Busy with my ds 1st b'dae.. kecoh and penat tak terhingga...

anyways, danryan,
so sorry to reply u late.. yes karvol is for 3 mths old and above.. you shld use illiadin.. u can get it of the shelf @ pharmacy too.. ada 3 kinds.. infant, kids and adults.. only to be use within 5 days and have to stop.. if the nose block persists , please consult a doc..

Wow!! many many postings...

Sri,
welcum!! welcum!!
doesn't matter, single ke double ke sure sudilah.. i think we all are here to make acquaintances and help or assist each other....have fun reading and postings ... hehehehehe

Juz to share,
i think poly is juz as good as private clinics.. my dd had all her jabs @ poly even up to her 3 yr assessment...
now my ds pun samalah.. save a bit of money .. unless sakit teruk, tak leh handle, even with poly tak jalan then i will straight away go KK.. pay only $75.. all kinds of check up and tests and medication all in..
my dd last month fractured her colar bone and i shoot out to KK and that's all the amount i paid, inclusive of x-ray, medications, consultation with senior specialist and a medical officer.. so not so badlah..

kat sengkang ada malay PD?? i stay around sengkang but i dunno bout this.. please advise kat mane and who is the doc? mle ke female doc... interested gitu eh..
 
Thks hottiemama...

Talking abt jab.. when bb kena jab? ada yg 5 in 1 & 6 in 1 kan? usually go poly for the jab? Hw much izzit? nk set aside the $$ 1st la.. hee
 
hi sri,
for me i din take the package 5 in 1, i juz go with the normal jabs, every month ada 1 jab till 6 month old then 9-10 months old then 15 months.. hepB dosage 2 and 3 dppt and polio. then @ 18 months will be MMR.. thats all..
not tat much comparitively to the 5 in 1 and 6 in 1.. last time all the jabs kat poly is subsidised.. but now only the dppt and polio je tak yah bayar hepB kena bayar if i'm not wrong $15.00.. tats all consultation and development assessment suma F.O.C..
 
icic ... if ard tt amt, ok la.. can afford.. hee...

Btw u all pernah tk exp vaginal discharge? dia colour putih... kdg2 ajer gatal.. once in blue moon.. but slalu juga keluar ahh.. Izzit normal?

Did u all exp light headed tk masa 28wks pregnant?
 
nites mummies semua!!

welcome Sri..
hope u will have fun chatting wif us here k!
regards to ur question kan...masa i preggy dulu i kena jugak but mine was worst, at times there's even white liquid dripping and it scared me so much cos i tot my water bag leakage but it turns out to be candida( not sure if spelling betul tak...hehe) some kind of yeast infection, easy to cure but u need to see doc cos they will prescribe u a medicine for it...i had a bullet to insert to the vagina...2 days and its better liao~
Lightheaded ada jugak lah but biasanya pasal i tak cukup tido cos i had sleepless nites or kurang makan...but still u must go see doc lahh, bila preggy must take all the precautions ehh..takut ur blood pressure low. ..Take care...
 
Thks mamaliz..

masa routine check, my blood pressure ok.. When i told doc abt my lightheaded, ade ke patut she ask me back "gt faint?" soalan cepuK emas eh.. if dh faint tk yah tanya kau doc..terus ku masuk hosp... doc..doc..

i tot nk gi swab culture (tink tis is the term for it..) but kena bayar kan? tau tk hw much?
 
hi ladies,
reali respect those mummies who have more than 1 kid and all got sick at the same time.
i ni baru satu jaga si faiq dah reali siong.
from 10pm last nite he has vomitted dont know how many times cos when coughed the phlegm wanted to come out.
so dengan susu sekali his phlegm got vomitted out.
last nite we comtemplated on bringing him to kkh but when i saw after he vomitted he's able to sleep back so we tak jadi go kkh.
i see for 1 more day.
if by next morning he's still like this then going to bring him to pd.

naddy,
heard of baby bear before but never been there.

hottiemama,
so which caterer u took for your boy's bday?
1 of which ryatie recommended?
the malay pd i heard has a clinic somewhere at rivervale is a male.
he used to write for the kids wellness column in berita harian...on a weekday if i'm not wrong.

sri,
i didnt go poly for jabs.
took the 6 in 1 and 5 in 1 at gp.
so they charge about $100 plus for each visit which is about 3 times...at 1st month, 3rd month and 6th month but ours were more cos we took rota also.
now my boy 1 year old then will take jab again.
going for his pneumo immunisation.
 
lynzi
i think u r referring to Dr Zainal Muttakin he is our pd. Clinic at Rivervale Plaza (2nd floor, ample parking space) tel no. 68753927. So far my son is ok with him.
 
WELCOME Sri

Hottiemama/anyone boleh reply
U gi jab yr kid and pay camne eh?? coz what i heard can use medisave as and when kalau our kid ada vaccine/immunisation....This Friday is my dd nye 2nd Hep B....for my both sons i used yg package nye aby $297 for the 5 in 1...so this time nak save2 sikit ler.......
 
Danryan
as i know yg boleh pakai medisave is for hepB only$20...the rest i use cash for 6in1...unless use CDA but not sure whether can or not...nvr try b4..any mummies know??
 
hi danryan,

can we use medisave to pay for our kids' jabs? i took the 5-in-one and was told by the nurses kene pakai cash.

sri - rota is for rotavirus. it's an optional jab. just like pneumococcal, chicken pox etc..
 
naddy/ryatie

the one i took 5 in 1 nye i pon bayar cash for my both sons....tu yg nak tanya nie sesiapa tau tak now leh use medisave for each visit ke tidak eh??
 
WELCOME Sri!
Dun worry abt asking anything here. InsyaAllah we will help u.

I pun ambik 6 in 1 jabs at GP. Malas nk tunggu lama2 kat polyclinic!
 
Thks naddy for the clarification..

Nw mcm2 jab eh...zaman i tk de lak mcm tu...

if blh pakai medisave ok juga... ringan sikit beban... kekeke..
 
Madem, I just received a letter from KK also telling me that Dr J's leaving. He transferred me to another gynae but I think I wanna look for someone I feel good with. In Aug, my sis's meeting him for her checkup so wanna ask where he's going to.

I don't think 5 in 1 or 6 in 1 can use medisave. So far I've been paying cash.

For my eldest one, I took the jabs at poly but the 2nd one, I amik at GP coz my 2nd one is a little sickly and it's difficult to reschedule appts at the polyclinic. At least with the gp, as soon as he's well, I just have to bring him down. No need for prior appt.
 
SriLeo,
Welcome Welcome! Sini semua friendly.

RE: 5 in 1
I took the package and pay $297 during Baby Mel nye 3 months checkup. If you choose to pay every visitkan nurse tu told me that you'll be paying extra $50 if you sum it all up. For me I brought Baby Mel to Yishun Poly cos service is good and time waiting is less than 1 hour with appointment. Although depan mata ade Woodlands Poly, I found that the waiting time is more than 2 hours. Btw, cash payment je.

Lynzi,
I think Faiq cough out the phlegm lah that's why he boleh tidur nyenyak. If not asyik batuk je kan. Hopefully he's getting better. Ya, it's very pening to see our children tak baik baik. At last kiter pun sakit cos worry so much.

RE: Playgroup North.
I join ini kali lah. Will bring kek kukus and chat over coffee. Hee...hee..

Btw Mummies, need to check on something. My friend is pregnant with her 5th baby. Government impose fine ke? I checked on her behalf that 5th and consecutive baby delivered can still use medisave provided there's at least $15k. Other than that I'm not so sure.
 
Sri leo
welcome to the forum...if u dun want to pay the jabs just go for the normal one that's is FREE...still the same only that it's dun sum of the visits are done orally n more visits if i not mistaken...

with regards to jab in poly, if with appointment for cck it's quite fast abt less than half an hour..i ever go it's 30mins only.

babylee
my fren with 5th child, wat she told me me she du ligation after this birth she no need to pay the summon of $1kplus. cos gov dun want us to give birth more than 4.
 
zu
pasal your kawan yg dah kancheong spider tu bilang dis relak la. First of all she da pegi check up to make sure everyhting is in order tak.

kalau org asyik tanye aje, cakap belom rezeki. I did it for 9 yrs.. sampai org pun malas nak tanye.
 
afternoon mummies mama and sumalah...

lynzi,
i took four seasons catering and i was quite dissapointed bout it.. ryatie recommend 4, i go look c the webby but hubby macam suka four seasons.. then few of my g'frens oso say food is good and highly recommended..
then wen it came, me and huby had a shock of our lives.. we ordered for 50 person then suppose to have 10% buffer and you know the its like 50pcs of eclairs + 5 more = 55pcs..
juz imagine that.. nasib baik i ada make pasta alio oglio and sup tulang with roti.. if not my guest will be starving... malu seh..

Hi nora,
how are his consultation charges?? mahal tak and is he very detailed in his checks??
 
hottiemama
hard to comment on his consultation charges bec both me and hb are frens with him, school mates la dulu. Tak tau la dia kasi kite discount ke bec when we first went to see him when my boy was like 3 mths it was foc.

Once my boy dapat ubat samapai 5 botol among them are paracetamol, bufren (for high fever), promathazine (running nose med), nose spray he charges $75. As to throughness i think we kena thick skin and rajin bertanye.
 
If $300 plus for the jab..den I'll set aside for it.. Anak satu ajer seh... mcm nk the best for him/her....
happy.gif
tk pe la..duit leh cari..anak tk leh cari...
happy.gif


Abt kena fine tu.. i doubt so.. cz skrg kan govt syik promote singaporeans hv more kids... tk kan nk ada anak lebih kena saman eh.. dh mcm negeri China lak...
 
ryatie,
dun worry bout it, not your fault k.. my g'fren oso told me that her corporate event was ok.. she also commented tat lately since suma benda naik harga, they have downsize the amount...
i'm thankful to u cos without your recommendations, i think my ds takde b'dae party..
u gave me a kick start...
i hope u jangan amik hati k.. the catering idea was hubby nye idea.. i nak masak je, so he's taking the blame... hehehe jahat eh i !!
Nora,
thank u, i hope i tak yah pi jumpa doclah, but if have to, i think i nak check it out.. thnx
 
nora aw,
yup yup...its Dr Zainal Muttakin.
penat aku google about him dis morning.
so far looks like faiq is better than last nite so i'm crossing my fingers and toes and praying hard that he will recover soon.
 
Lynzi,

Glad to hear that faiq's better. Hope he recover soon.

Dr Jazlan is going to Raffles hospital. So I don't think I'll follow him there. For private c-sect, it's very ex. My mom is helping me to source out for another gynae. Now most good gynaes only see their patient at the private suite. Susah nak cari good one that see at the normal clinic.

Sri, I feel like light headed at times too. Sit down when you feel one coming. It will go away sometimes. About the discharge, if it's itchy, you shld see a doc or inform your gynae, they can prescribe something. Aniwae, where are you seeing your gynae?
 


abt saman anak no5-
i tink i've heard it somewhere before also..
betul ke? DORANG nie kadang contradicting jgk, suruh procreate tapi at the same time kalo byk, kena saman. Then suruh naik public transport, tapi sumer DORANG naik kan!
uhoh.gif
Aku ingat aku jer sorang mixedup! ishh... nie tak le byk komen, nanti besok aku nye username plak kena pangkah! :p

nora, dah.. dia da pi gynae pat KKH.. the gynae ckp takde apape.. TAPI suruh dia consider that IVF/IUI thingy.. bdats y she ask my opinion.

nora, then dat PD must be undercharging u le.. cos the other time Sarah jumpe PD pat CCK. Dapat 2 ubat je da kene $90+. Unless dia overcharge aku la.

pasal jab- those 6-in-1 and 5-in-1 jabs bole pakai CDA ac pat polyclinic. TAPI, yg ade these ac cume 2nd born onwards jer. So if ade next baby, u nak jab pat poly bole la pakai CDA ac ni. I just taken Hep nye jab, kene bayar $15. I din know if bole pakai medisave.. I also din ask la.. cos to me, $15 jer nak byk tanye leceh la.. Then takut nak kene fill form lagi.. Mcm buang masa jer. Lainlah kalo $150 eh.
