First Day at School

twohens — Mon, 09 Jun 2014 11:41:39 +0800

I dropped my daughter off at a nursery today. It's her second time at a nursery but her first day at this one. At the first nursery it was just awful. She cried even before getting out of the car, she came home with strange bruises on her ears and arms geez I didn't know what to think. When she got awfully sick we just took her out, it was less than two weeks. Anyway, over there, on her first day, we left her when she was distracted by toys. It seemed like that's what they wanted us to do. It was the same today, they distracted her. Kept telling us to just leave her. I had actually thought of staying a while till she got comfortable but the staff seemed quite insistent. And would they even get 'comfortable' with us hanging around? I imagine she'd just be clinging to me the whole time.

What do you guys do? Hide and run? Stay until your kid is settled, if he can even get settled with you there? Or do you just drop and run? I HATE doing this

Fearless Formula Feeder

twohens — Thu, 05 Jun 2014 17:03:54 +0800

Just want to share a good website with those of us who had to formula feed even after trying so hard to breastfeed and failing.

Fearless Formula Feeder

Most people, I think, know the benefits of breast feeding. It doesn't help when a mother is depressed and everyone else is treating her like she has failed because she couldn't breastfeed.

We all want what's best for our babies

Sleep Training

twohens — Thu, 05 Jun 2014 12:22:26 +0800

Any of you guys doing sleep training for your baby? What method? Or do you still rock your baby to sleep every time he wakes up at night? I don't know if the cry it out method is good or bad

Do we really need to sleep train? Will he learn by himself when he is old enough?

Do all men change after marriage?

twohens — Thu, 05 Jun 2014 10:22:56 +0800

For example, less romantic, less helpful etc. I've read before that it's because they already got their 'prize' so there's no use to make an effort any more? Is that true, or do men change because they don't love the girl anymore?

Ingrown Toenails

twohens — Mon, 14 Apr 2014 10:25:21 +0800

Okay, I don't know if this post might be a bit too graphic so just a little warning lah.

This whole thing started when I was pregnant, I suspect it was because everything was getting swollen from the water retention. My toes started tingling like pins and needles for months and months, even when I gave birth. The problem got worse after that, my fingernails also affected. All the pus started coming out from my toes and my fingers anyway I decided to ask the doctor to cut it out, he said he would just try and remove the part that was digging in my skin first but if it comes back then he will have to pull off the whole toenail. He injected something to numb my toe into my bone and started to cut my toenail out.

So, the problem is back and now I'm wondering about removing my whole toenail That time it was so painful already, I can't imagine removing my whole toenail. Has anyone experienced this? How did they do it? Any better pain management than that injection to the toe? Even the injection was painful hahaha and it didn't even help much although I did appreciate the painkiller when it was gone. How long did it take for the nail to grow back? How did you take shower? omg so many questions!!

Montessori School or Nursery

twohens — Fri, 11 Apr 2014 16:05:30 +0800

Hello! Which would you guys send or have sent your children to when they start walking, montessori school or just a normal nursery? I know you learn stuff in the montessori but I also know it costs more. The one we have in Kuching is only half day so we have to pick LO up during lunch and send somewhere else again. Is it really worth it? I didn't go to a montessori school last time and I don't think I suffered. My sister did, and she doesn't seem to be any different from me in terms of her academic achievement. What do you guys think?

Hi guys..I don't really know where to post this so I'm actually trying in a few places. Sorry if it's in the wrong thread!

I just opened an online shop selling greeting cards and gifts (the URL is in my signature). We aim to make giving presents etc easier, especially for those long distance relationships and for people who are living far away from their loved ones. Also for busy people (or lazy people hehe). Still early days so there's still so much more to do and improve on. I made this survey to hopefully get feedback, I'd really appreciate it if you guys could fill it up..it won't take long!

Thank you so much in advance!

edit: To thank you guys, if you just post something in this thread (suggestion etc) I can enter you in the running to receive a free Timbergram. Timbergrams are wooden postcards made from 3mm birch and they support Tree Aid in Africa.

Just pay for shipping, RM3.50 (Pos Ekspres)

So the number of your post will be used to enter in a random number generator to be fair to all. There will be three winners for this 'lucky draw' so the earlier number will get to choose which one they want and so forth.

We don't sell Timbergrams yet. It's a big investment and the retail price is at RM20 so we're not sure yet. Hopefully this survey can help us make our decision, and you lucky winners can give a review to the Timbergram you receive if you want.

Proofreading Services

twohens — Thu, 10 Apr 2014 11:56:23 +0800

Hi guys. I'm here to offer proofreading services for your resume, letters, essays etc. All grammatical and spelling errors will be looked into and I can also reorganize your sentence structure if needed. The number of words can also be altered to the number that you need.

e.g.

Your words: It was a hot day.
Your edited words: The sweltering heat had beat down on me the whole day, leaving me with a cranky disposition and a drenched singlet.

Only RM0.50 per page (max), but individual assignments will be reviewed accordingly. Upfront payment needed though because I don't know how to chase after you if I've corrected your work and then you run and hide under some rock. If you're really unhappy with my work and I just cannot make you happy then you will definitely be refunded.

Please message me for any questions!

Brushing Baby Teeth

twohens — Sat, 29 Mar 2014 23:26:32 +0800

Hi guys. Just wondering how you guys are brushing your babies teeth.

Do you use toothpaste? Toothbrush or cloth or dental wipes? When did you start? How many times a day? And any other info that might be relevant..

My baby got five teeth within a month just when she turned one year old so now we brush her teeth using the stage 2 toothbrush from Pigeon and kodomo toothpaste. At first we tried using a cloth but she didn't like it. Also, we actually didn't want to use toothpaste but I guess it's okay? Anyway the xylitol is supposed to be good and I can't find a product that is just xylitol only so we just try our best lah. Just worried because of the fluoride that she might be swallowing. The dental wipes in the market are so expensive and I don't think my baby will like it since she doesn't like the cloth in her mouth.
