Shangri La Rasa is nice too. Did you ask for Sea view Rooms?
If you enjoy pizza and pasta, try this place call "Trapizza" which is located on the beach. They are managed by the hotel so you can sign the bill to your room.
I love their pasta.
When are you going?

Hey ... hb and i are always on the hunt for yummy food when we take a 'break' on weekdays.
Hb's birthday is next week and i am thinking of where to bring him to satisfy his stomach! He said there is a nice Korean Fusion restaurant at Red Dot?? Heard before?

Mich, we are going in june 14th and 15th. Hmm...I think I have opted for seaview.
Mummylian, congrats on your gal's full month.
didi, wow, you going to start baking liao.
disneymickey, gives ws some time to settle down. It is extremely normal for children to cry for first month. I have worked in childcare before, very normal. Some took even longer than 1 month to settle down. I jsut never see children like my boy who doesn't even bother where he is.
Precious one thanks for visiting my blog.
Talking about food, when I am stress out, I will go feast out, thats why never slim down, haha. Yesterday went to feast out at sakae, monday went to feast out at swensens. Sigh...This week really streeeeesssssssssssss.

I found this interesting website www.babybreeze.biz. started by experienced midwifes/registered nurses/nurse mgr. i basically asked if there is any prep I can do before preg as I had preenclampsia. v nice lady called me. been told to lose weight. Not sure if they can help advise on other causes or care of premature labour. can try to ask ah.
kkf
Dr Ann Tan - did she say need any special care/prep for pregy ? whether during or before

daec,
i understand the nan or nanHA has the same calorie as other milk powder, except for pediasure (tat's y kids on pediasure r generally bigger in size) & milks 4 preemie (neosure is 4 preemie rt?) as they need more calories. i rem initially when ws was still in NICU, the docs hav to add in some fortifier into my breastmilk 2 give ws more calories.
but the amt of milk to give depends on bb's age. think there's a table behind the tin? can chk it out. DO NOT give more as it'll hurt bb's kidneys. DO NOT give less as bb will not b full.
kkf,
thanks 4 the concern on ws' schooling. this morning, got a nice surprise frm her. when i was changing, she was lyign on the bed waiting 4 me, then she told me, mommy go, i ask her go where, she say go sch..
dash is a people-friendly kid, tat's y he has no prob gg sch. big boy
mummylian,
silly me, didn't notice your girl's name is Edel, still ask
mich,

hi bloom
its good for early intervention (even if its means some baby is just late bloomers in terms of motor/speech developments).
normally they go by the growth / development chart. but some neo nat does give more grace period and such.
The PT that was seeing my boy ever commented, after checking my boy (that time my boy was not even crawling yet) that "its ok, give him somemore time, he could be just one of those late bloomers in terms of walking"....
for speech,.. i guess just talk to your baby more. sing talk...soon they will catch up

I guess wat babybreeze said is according to my case. Besides that to have gd nutrition and reduce stress. Even then, I counter that not all overweigt pp get that preeclampsia. She say true, its just more better to lose weight, less likelihood. she say they dunno wat is the cause for sure.
anyways when I read alternative medicine - they suggest gd nutrition, fish oil, calcium, magnesium. Hmm I remember that when admitted to hospital - they gave me magnesium sulphate.This site is interesting http://www.blueribbonbaby.org

I also visited TCM once while pregnant for my case, she said my water retension also cause the high bld. so work on the water retension by massage, accu puncture, eating foods would help the high bld go down. didnt cont with TCM coz TCM lady went to hol and I was admitted to hospital.
DM
ok thx. Hmm..I wonder if the tables are accurate though. Coz looking that table on Neosure(that time she was still taking it), she was taking way less than it. When I checked with dietician, she said it shld not be as much as that table. Iguess still got some dependency on the individual baby

then suddenly i heard a cry...i turn around. there he was crawling on all fours just at the entrance to the bed room.
he seem ok... very calm except cry when he see me. then cry and point to me the bed. i gather he wants to sleep?....
never in my life i expect that to happen. my husband did ever thought of closing the bedroom door..but i was against it. looks like i am wrong...
