Hi Mummies & Daddies, My bb who is 6 months old has dry cough recently. He even tried to clear his throat. Is it due to surrounding air or Similac that he is drinking now? Thank you!

Hi, is he in an aircon place all the time? If so, you may consider using a humidifier in the room where he is or sleeps. A more "primitive" method is to put a basin of water in the room. Formula milk usually causes phelgmy kind of cough not dry cough, but it would also depends. Must trial and error to see.

Hi! My 6 mth old LO is bursting into sporadic coughs (without phlegm) and she is not having a flu. Doesn't seem to be a viral infection too. May i know what's the reason?

You LO may be having a dry cough. It could be caused by dry air. Does it happen more frequently at night? If it does, try putting a bowl of water in the room to add some humidity. Besides that, It could also be caused by teething as the excess saliva escapes through the back door, dripping down baby's throat, causing gagging and an irritating cough.

My baby is 6m+5days old but cant fairly sit up yet. She kept leaning forward at a less than 45 degree position. Now can sit slightly more up. She has strong neck muscles and could lift up her head to turn left and right at 10 weeks old. I see other babies can at least sit upright after 5mo. Is there any issue with my baby?

Hi mummies, any tips and advice on choosing a high chair? There's so many options and I'm super confused! Should I get the wooden kind? Or those with chair pads (looks so comfy! But reviews says hard to clean?) Or the IKEA kind will do? Or booster seats? Need something very sturdy as my girl is so active. Any advice appreciated! Thanks! :)

Anyone have issues on LO having sensory integration issue? My 17mo LO refuse to touch on all kinds of different textures; sand, flour, dough, water bean etc. What can I do to help her overcome this problem?

Usually I would start with the textures that are not so overwhelming. Usually that will be beans, dough and probably flour and sand. I will also grade the exposure of materials usually in a play setting. Ie. Start with using a tool like spoons to scoop to touch the materials and then you can also put a toy that they like into the materials and let them play with the toy. When they are more willing and accepting then you can try getting them to touch it with their friends. I will go slow with the exposure of the materials as you do not want to Create too much anxiety it. Follow the lead of your child. Also if they are tactile defensive you might also want to look at other sensory systems to see if they are also sensitive such as sound ( toilet flushing sound, hair dryer)

Can i check do you encountered baby about 3months 3 weeks to 4 months who dont drink milk. Can whole day maybe just take in about only 300ml of milk? He keep on crying whenever i feed him milk and refuse to drink but mouth is making the sound tak tak tak as if he wants to eat. And also lately i found he keep on sucking his hand but sometimes few fingers in it and legs will go high up or sometime rubbing his feet. I'm so worried. Can someone share experience?

My daughter did go through a period of milk strike. Her lowest intake was around 450ml. What I did was try to feed her while she was asleep. Occasionally she will reject the bottle, but I will keep wiggling the bottle in her mouth until she drinks. Another method you can try is using a syringe to feed. Please remember to monitor her diapers and ensure she is not dehydrated. Hope this phase goes away soon!

My LO's nanny actually places 蚊香 and diffuse lemongrass EO in the house for this Zika period, anyone could tell me if it is suitable for my 5.5mths old LO to sniff it everyday just like that? As there is a bedridden elderly and my LO in the house, so they are kind of kiasu in putting one 蚊香 each in each room and living room. My LO is currently staying there overnight.
