Personally I don't have any experience with Dr Goh Shen Li. But I know she has given birth to two young babies not too long ago (maybe in 2011, 2012??). Frankly, I will not go to a doctor who has just given birth, or have babies or very young kids at home and esp. if they are first time...

Thanks, daddy linuspine for your straightforward and heartwarming sharing. Charity, respect and love begins at home. If we educate our kids to be loving, considerate and respectful, we will have future generations of bosses who will value family time and cultivate good benevolent values at the...

I had my baby delivered in NUH recently. Nearly lost my life because of this careless gynae, a so called, "senior consultant". I can tell you who you shouldn't see there! When I wrote about my post labour experience in the Forums, he threatened legal actions against the forums to hide the truth...

Dr TB Lim is very fatherly. He has great patience to explain many things.. if he is not urgently needed to deliver a baby! I find him knowledgeable and professional. His fees are also very reasonable compared to other pte docs. My friend recommended him and she said, "He's the best"! Haa! Haa...

Bravo, Devon! Luv this article! Awesome lines... words that I have also whispered in my heart when one of "these tactless statement" are made to me...

Hi, Perhaps you could try using a feminine hygiene wash such as Lactacyd pH 3.5. Some info here: Protecting Maybe you could also use diluted antiseptic wash on the outer areas. Best is to go for a medical a check up if the itch is persistent... just to rule out possibility of an infection...

Hi all, I am just curious to know if training pants (the non-disposable ones, those that work like an underwear with some light protection) are necesaary/useful for toddlers who are already toilet trained? My son is already toilet trained and will be in nursery soon. He can signal when he...

--------------------------------------------------- Hi Carline, Thanks for sharing. Our boys are probably almost at the same age! Initially, he doesn't talk very much. But in the recent months, he has started talking much more, singing and imitating wht we say or what is on the tv. He has...

Hi all, Thanks for sharing. I think this is a useful thread. My boy will be going to nursery next month. He is going to be two. Here is what the school recommends as a packing list: 1) 1 set of home clothes 2) 1 set of afternoon school uniform 3) Bath towel (to be brought home for washing...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi mspinkpooh, My suggestion would be: keep looking! I would not be keen if a particular centre/nursery is too full/crowded and kids have to be on the waiting list. The student : teacher ratio may be...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Carline, I have prepared an Excel spreadsheet which I have used when I shortlisted the different nurseries for my son. I can e-mail it to you if you could PM me your e-mail address. (I...

My son has frequent coughs and can get phlegm easily aftet he turned 12 mths old. So far the paeds that we have seen have always prescribed cough mixtures. There is a mucolytic cough mixture called Vasican 5mg (bromhexine hydrochloride) which I find effective for my son which my paed prescribed...

My sister bought one recently. Food tastes good according to her but cooking time maybe longer than usual. You may need to turn/stir the food during the cooking process so that the food gets cooked/fried evenly. You still need to add some oil if you cooked fresh/raw food. Only processed food...

Hi, You mentioned that you fully breastfeed your baby since birth: is it 100% breastmilk or do you sometimes supplement with formula as well? For me, my menses came back regularly two months after birth but I breastfed/expressed milk about 80% of the total milk intake for my baby as I did...

Hi, I don't like lizards either. I've tried using a commercial glued on-lizard trap -- it didn't work. No lizard was trapped. Anyway, I've heard of a real personal sharing of a strange (rather unconventional) method which worked: Break a leg of a live lizard and let it go free after that. The...

Hi, I am going to explore the Philips Air Fryer. Info here: Philips AirFryer Review Heard from a mummy that it is good. No oil needed; healthier cooking method. Anyone has tried it? Any personal reviews/experience to share? Does the food taste "dry" without the oil?
