daec,
yes. the nan 3 can b for 10mths onwards, more proteins & more calories. but not much diff. so u can either stick to nan 2 or change to nan 3. but nan 3 is cheaper, i think.

he born in tmc but the eye specalist is from Mt E. The specalist advise us to go for laser cos his condition is not good(might go blind if there delay)...so after discussion we went ahead with the operation.
will be going back for review 1st wk of june again, my nightmare coming cos my son sure cry & make noise at night all the way to 5am after the vist.

There is a few 27 weekers baby here

welcome! do come here & share. dun worry, our premmie babies are fighters!
maybe more prem babies coz nowadays have babies later age and the food we eat - all those modern stuff not so healthy, lifestyle.. ? cant say also. think older days like our granny time still have. just that not reported/known or hospital care lesser as techology not so advance as now. there is more pro-active care now.
think its just fated that some babies are premature. just like Winston Churchil, Isaac Newton These famous people were premature at birth, still make it one

Hello mummies, wow, many posts yesterday!
thanks for all your wishes. Really hope to enjoy myself this weekends. Plan to dump dash with my in laws, and enjoy the stay ourselves.
First, welcome strawberry! so cute nickname. Wow, your boy's weight is good leh. My boy borned 27 weeks plus as well, weighed 1.14kg only when he was borned. He is now 2 and a half. He doesn't have ROP I think, but he also has medical condition. He has heart defect, a hole in the heart, and was patched up.
Bloom, change school? it is not that I am not happy with my school leh, it is that I am tired of my job I think, haha. Btw, yah, costa is right, my school doesn't start with two "M", no "M" in fact. wow, you so good scan your note. My note is like giam chia liao. did you faithfully massage for kath? I did for first few days, but now lazy...haha.
Costa, my meeting with parents? sigh, met with that same nasty parent I had mentioned before. Now was his wife. Again told me the same thing, that her daughter doesn't have interest in chinese language, and asked me to think of my teaching method, must make it more interesting, so that her daughter will have interest. Then she complained about last year teachers, said that they told her if she found that her daughter was not doing well in chinese and other subjects, go and employ a tutor for her. She said she was very unhappy cause if every parent was to employ tutor then what are teachers there for? Stupid parent leh, think she is so smart. If she has so much ideas, and think we teachers are not good, why doesn't she come and teach herself? she will then know facing 40 kids, and with syllables to rush, how to make lessons interesting? if good class, i can still do that, cause there is no need for scolding of students for their discipline or work not handed in, but for average class, most of the time was spend chasing homework, scolding, and remaining time to rush syllables, how to make lessons interesting!!!
If every parent is like costa, what a peaceful world will be! Glad that zack is doing well in his studies. I know how tiring for working parent to supervise homework. I cannot imagine me doing that in future.
Jane, dash is still wearing pampers at night leh. During day, he may be free from pampers as nowadays he can express his wish to go toilet but night, no no no. I think siang is good, he is ready to do without pampers at night liao! good leh.
daec hope nada is better now?
Suai, headache now. I woke up today having headache. think goto take some panadols else I will have migrane again.
