Novalac (Formula for diarrehea babies)

sbux — Sat, 05 Nov 2011 23:56:56 +0800

My baby is down with mild diarrhea. Brought her to GP and GP only prescribed Wind medication. Brought her to a paed today and paed prescribed Novalac. She said is for diarrhea babies and its lactose free. The formula is suppose to be "easily digestable". Paed ask me to mix half and half to my baby's formula. Can stop when diarrhea stop.

Problem is, I am a bit skeptical with the formula. Somemore it sounds damn artificial to me with "fructose and glucose" and "apple and banana powder".

And baby refuse to drink... Now its open up and have to finish in 3 weeks.

I wonder if any parents here tried Novalac? Is it during diarrhea? Does it help? Or its just a way of promoting their "special" formula?

Baby Vaccinations

It seems nowadays many parents decide not to vaccinate their babies and children, at all..

I wonder any parents here have similar thought and why do u feel so?

some links i found stating the "ingredients" of the vaccines...

Vaccines contain weakend or killed viruses or toxoids from bacteria. Depending on the vaccine, and particular brand, they also contain mercury, aluminum, formaldehyde, antibiotics, MSG, cells from aborted human fetuses (human diploid), monkey kidney cells, cow (bovine) serum, yeast, etc.

So what do u think?

All about solids

sbux — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 02:34:02 +0800

Let's discuss our baby's big milestone, starting solids!

I think it's a very interesting milestones for both mum and baby cuz it's a whole new journey.

For reference: www.wholesomebabyfood.com

For me, I started my baby few days ago on rice cereal because of some relative's pressure. (4 months 2 days old) She can swallow well and know how to open her mouth for the spoon. She is also taking 6oz of formula every 4 hours and still complains when we take the bottle away from her after she finishes her milk. so I offer her 1 milk scoop of rice cereal mix with 1oz of formula. She would take half and turn her head away after that. Well, maybe she doesn't like it or she is just not ready. So I stopped after 3 days and will try again in 2 weeks time.

Yes I know.. 6 months is the rule. But my relatives very very kepoh and keep on ask me to start giving porridge so hubby asked me to try, if really cannot then stop. And make sure feed in front of them.. Lol..

hi guys. this is my first time doing law and i need help in answering a law problem question on Commercial Law.

problems are around S14(2) and 14(3). SOGA 1979

i do not know how to start off with the answer.

plz help k? i have beeen asking around already and seems like nobody knows how to do it.

i already have an outline of answers that my lec give to us. so, his first advise to jack for the answer is

- Transaction defined under S2(1) and regulated by SOGA 1979.

do i start with let say,

S2(1) states that a contract of sale of goods is a contract by which the seller transfers or agrees to transfer the property in goods to the buyer for a money consideration, called the price.

then what? what is regulated by SOGA?

btw, SOGA is the Sales of Goods Act 1979.
