Can I take the ig6 colostrum vitamin at 36 weeks

I totally understand wanting to do everything possible for your baby especially in these final weeks, so it is really sweet that you are thinking about this. That said, since you are 36 weeks and quite close to delivery, it would be best to check with your gynae or doctor before starting any new supplement, just to make sure it is safe for you and baby at this stage.

Hi mummies! I get knees pain after second c section any suggestions for reduce the pain #Second_Baby

Knee pain after C-section is really common, the weak core from the surgery throws off how your whole body compensates, so the knees end up taking extra load. A postpartum massage can help, and once you're cleared, gentle exercises to rebuild your core actually make a big difference for the joint pain too. A friend of mine also swore by SRC C-section recovery shorts for support during the healing phase. Do check with your gynae or a physio though, just to rule out anything specific to your recovery!

Child sneeze a lot after waking up from air-con room

My child has a tendency of #sneezing a lot whenever she wakes up from an air-conditioned room (she can’t sleep in too hot place and her school also air-coned one). Every wake-up she uses up a lot of tissue paper to clean the runny nose. We see doctors and was told this is recurrent allergy rhinitis. They prescribed her some steroid nasal spray. When the spray is used her condition will improve. When spray used up, her condition will go back to same state. I’m wondering if anyone is trying out some at-home herbal solutions for more longer term remedies at home to help? Or recommendation of paediatrician who knows better on this?

The most effective thing we found was dust-mite-proofing the bedroom, get mattress and pillow covers specifically for dust mites, and wash all bedding weekly in hot water above 60°C, because air-con rooms actually trap allergens really well. Also keep the room humidity below 50% with a dehumidifier, since dust mites thrive in humid conditions even with air-con running. My friend brought her son to Dr Jenica Yong (ENT specialist) and said she was very thorough, didn't just prescribe the spray but actually explained the environmental triggers and gave a longer-term management plan.

What’s your parenting style like? Do you spilt the task between you and your other half? If yes, how? Personally I feel that it’s important to come to a consensus with your partner on what kind of parenting style the both of you would like to have for your child. If there’s different thoughts on the same issue it could lead to frequent quarrels with your other half. Which is bad for the relationship. So for me I’m in charge of doing most of the decisions and coaching my girl on academic matters.

Where 2 people are involved, there will always be differences. I guess both parties need to constantly talk it out and come to a consensus, so that the child will not get confused by inconsistent standards. While some days are intense, I would say most days are fun, discussing with my husband about how we do things and even manage the little situations. We’ve gotten to know our kids pretty well, and our kids also like doing different things with each of us, so playing our own roles is most of the time quite seamless for us. Then there are things like feeding/bathing/changing diapers/putting the kids to bed, that both of us are able to do equally well, so we can cover each other when one is sick/needs rest. At the end of the day, between father and mother, it’s not about who calls the shots/who wins. It’s a partnership, and in my personal opinion, the best thing that we can do for our kids is to show them that daddy and mummy love each other, and that that is one of the strong foundations of our family. This gives them security and they know that our love for them is here to last a long time. For decisions, we sometimes push for our way, and we sometimes give in. Sometimes I let my husband try his way, and when that method fails, I use mine. So he doesn’t feel that I disrespect him, and when I get to try my method, he respectfully steps back too. We ask each other questions a lot and have fruitful discussions. Time and again, I feel blessed to have found this man to do life with. Even our children will imitate us, and call us “Dear…”. Lol

Parenting roles

Hello Engel, the parenting style I aim to use is gentle and responsive parenting. My son is still very young so have yet to put to practice but I try to be as responsive as possible to his cries and signals. Me and my partner has fairly different parenting style but we have similar beliefs in instilling characteristics and moral values we deemed important. Currently, I rarely split tasks between myself and my partner as I take more of a leading role in the early months and my partner will be more hands-on when my son is more alert and aware. Hopefully I answered some of your questions! I definitely agree with you that it is important to be on the same page with your partner ☺️

Traditional parenting versus modern parenting

So everyone, I'm just curious, do you parent your child with a traditional approach – as perhaps practised by your own parents – or in a modern-parenting style?

A mix of both..
