Ivy,
At 36 weeks, should be quite safe to take since ur bb fully developed liao. usu. it's in the early pregnancy that we more scared bcos the vital organs are developing rapidly.

Ivy,
Don't worry so much. Cannot be helped. Just do whatever u can do at this point. Just do it, and then leave it, don't think so much and hope for the best. Don't think here think there and frighten yourself har.

Ivy, you must be so excited
Keep us posted.
Tomorrow my daughter's going to Pei Chun to get uniform, books etc. So exciting too, haha!
And I'll be going with her to watch Duck and Dive tomorrow night.
On a sad note, today's my daughter's last day in school, she was getting all teary about it. She's only been in the school for just over a year but I think this group gels really well. Sadly, none of them stay in TPY so none coming over to Pei Chun.

Duck and Dive was enjoyable. We had a good time and a good laugh. Some jokes were a bit too "advanced" for my daughter, haha! And she kept asking me why I was chuckling away! Performers were good too, must support the local artists.
Holiday's started. However with the weather playing up the way it has been lately, it's difficult to plan outdoor activities ahead of time...And Christmas round the corner... gift shopping time again.

rlrenn,
When pao sheng is added to a pile of other soup boiling herbs, it's role is like a catalyst or an agent which helps the other herbs to release their fullest into the soup.
In my opinion, if you are getting prepacks, then no need to add pao sheng liao. But of cos, if you want, can put lah.

Hi Dor
The 2 teachers are nice. Can't remember their names though. Oh, got xmas party? sounds fun
Let me ask them this Sat. Your girl still attending the weekend classes?
Hi Orangeymum
1st lesson this sat at GUG?
My class is at 4pm. My girl is 13 months, so attending the parents and babes class lor. How old is your baby?
Oh yes, I popped by Blk 86 (Appletree) and 78B (C?) (Edufarm) after work yesterday. Realised that the venue used by Appletree also used for KTV at night.... ermm... abit concerned with the cleanliness of the place, as compared to a full-fledged CC or children learning centre where hygience level is better. As for edufarm, only saw their banner, cannot find the venue, unless it's that round shape glass-panel unit that I am seeing.

dolphingal, did you get my email? Privilege card can get 5%, just need the member's IC no, think I emailed you that.
Phlegm - chuan bei fen and nan bei xing works well. YRS also has this ning hou but very ex. It works well for my kids, esp at the early stage.
Did you bring your boy to see the doc? If not perhaps you want to try out Dr EJ Tan at Braddell, near McD, His medicine works well for the family. It's pretty strong but works wonders, haha! So far, only his medicine can knock me out and give me a good sleep when I need it most.

Hi Gal dolpine, for phlegm, did u try the flumicil (the orange powder)? I usually gave my boys this and the cough syrup prospan when they have night cough with phlegm. If he is really bad, he might need some airway medicine like ventoline. I find jfoo's remedy also work well, the Ning Hou sang from YRS is very good.

Dor, all the body is real. The last time i went to see, they say all real leh, all are donated for science.
btw i finally feel bit better, i went to dr EJ tan, he gave me quite a strong cough syrup, which i only took a bit. Today gynae give me ivy leaf extract which be@ans mention, saying the one dr tan give might be bit strong and since im week 38 and need to monitor baby movement. But dr tan medication can keep, really very effective haha.
Today my gynae say water level is low, might have to induce soon, but PRobLem is baby head not totally engage, even though i 1cm dilated!!??
Gal.dolphine, dr EJ tan is bit more ex, but i went to see other doc before, in the end got to spend extra $$ to see him again. So now i just go straight to him, 1 time payment. But since u get TCM, then just see how lah, dun waste.

Hi dolphingal, (LONG...)
My 2 girls are also just recovering from really bad bad cough and bronchitis. Usu my pead gives also prospan and sinupret, reason bcoz the med is more gentle on the kids. It is effective for coughs that are mild or recovering. For my girl, the doc added on prenisolone(which is the all hailed cortisteriod), and antibiotics which I always try to avoid. But since this time, the airways r badly inflammed, got no choice. they r on it for 2 wks plus Ventolin.(oral /inhaled). At the same time, I went to Lor 8 Chong hoe medical hall to see sinseh Yap. Will continue w his med after the girls recover.
For yr boy, I think you have to give lots of warm water to drink, and no chicken, eggs, anything sweet. Usu they r recovering and when we forget, they eat something and the next day, the phelgm all comes back.
If possible ,even dilute the milk, (even soya causes phlegm).
hope this helps...... actually, flumucil is helpful, why not continue, half a pack twice a day for a week. once in morning, once at night. make sure you stir till everything dissolve.(this was the dosage when my girl was one yrs old..)

chuan bei must mix with nan bei xing. Just one or the other alone won't work well.
Hou Ning I think can start from 4 months if not mistaken. At 1 yr old, I think 1/3 of bottle, once a day. You'll have to check when buying. B early stage, I mean once the child starts coughing, one bottle generally solves the problem. So for you, probably will take longer. Chinese med takes longer to kick in.

wah... so many mummies are chinese meds experts. i guess we all hv suffered enuff terrible coughs episodes! i usually use flumucil for my ger, but recently i've started to use woods cough syrup when the cough is persistent, since i use it when young too. i'm a bit wary of cough mixtures given by doctors, cos my ger will cough badly (to release the phlegm) and sometimes cant clear cos she dunnoe how to spit out. even myself i can't take particular kind of cough mixture, i will cough so badly tat it affects my sinus, so for young babies, pls monitor once on cough syrup. and i agree with ventolin too. sometimes cant help it, really need to give else wun be able to sleep. i'm very scared cough will become bronchitis too cos my ger absolutely refuses to have anything on her face, the puff is all she will accept, reluctantly. can try to give some barley or chrysantamum too?
by the way, i have about 10 heinz baby food glass bottles to give. any mummy wants?

Pound the nan bei xing and chuan bei into powder form, then mix the two with water. You can also double boil with chinese pear (the huge brown ones). Add the powdered chuan bei and nan bei xing, pear cut in half and some rock sugar to approx a bowl of water. Double boil for 2 hours on low heat. You can also use chuan bei in soups. Boil the chuan bei (in ball form) with ribs, nan bei xing, orange peel, honey dates (these two are great for coughs too) and white fungus (this is nourishing for the lungs).
jfoo,
When do you give these to the kids? as part of their soups of and on? I use to boil them regularly too, but not the powder form. The ones withe the orange peels and honey dates, I bought direct from medical hall. but my girls nvr show improvement leh... HOw much do you add for the nan bei xing & chuan bei, into the soups? a handful to a pot???
I'm still cracking my head over the kids health... maybe must be more patient.
