<<好爸爸好妈妈>>儿童烘焙班



上星期六,8月23号,下午4点,
我和通过<<好爸爸好妈妈>>节目成功报名的家长和孩子们,
都准时抵达在UE Shopping Mall 的 Bakerzin.
大家都兴致勃勃地期待着孩子们当小厨师,
现场学做 Blueberry Cheese Cake!

总共有十位小朋友,我的小瓜是年纪最小的.
其实,严格来讲,这个烘焙班是供4岁到12岁的孩子们参加的.
可是,为了让这一班更添点乐趣,
就带了两岁半儿子来与哥哥姐姐们一起热闹一下吧!

年纪小小的孩子们,会做吗?
千万不要小看他们哟!
不到1个半小时,小朋友们所做出来的成品,
还真的非常香甜可口,而且还超有创艺!

最近,声音一直沙哑..... 失声......身体状况还好,就是喉咙不好!
真担心十年前的恶梦又再发生!

十年前,在友台当DJ时, 曾经过度用声,喉咙发炎沙哑时,还硬硬值班,医生给病假,也来上班. 声音沙哑了,还硬撑主持户外活动,别人生病,还帮同事代班,完全不理会自己的豆沙喉情况!
结果,一年下来,喉咙严重受损,还长了茧!
在那一年里,声音都是"郑惠玉"的声音,而且还时不时完全发不出声音!

然后,家庭医生只好派我到医院去做鼻咽喉检查!
先是从鼻子伸入细小的内窥镜去看喉咙......
发现有两颗茧各在一边的喉咙上!
为了要查清楚有没有动手术的必要,得用另一种内窥镜来检查!
不得了!这次是用一根很粗的内窥镜伸入喉咙内呀!......
哎哟....真的很不舒服!非常可怕!......

幸好,后来查出我的茧还是属于比较软的,
所以,不需要开刀!可是,以后要好好的照顾!
哇!吓死我了!听说如果真的开刀,最少半年到一年都不能讲话!

从此以后, 每当我喉咙痛,或发炎,失声或咳嗽,
我的医生一定要我好好的休息我的声音,
以免病情再度发生!
所以,不好意思,最近就常拿MC了!

这几天,我每讲一句话,就严重地咳呀咳(因为关掉麦,所以听众听不到)!
这喉咙越劳损,就越难好,而且担心会恶化!
另一方面,又担心自己的节目......

可能真的要象刘翔一样,
暂时放弃,好好"养伤"!
因为如果他当时是坚持的跑下去,脚伤变得更严重的话,
他可能就因此一辈子也不能跑了,这样更得不偿失!
所以,有时休息是为了走更长远的路,
暂时放弃是为了不要断送自己的路!

Hi Fenying

I think Pacific looks more like a "Food Taster" than a Baker. He is enjoying the pastry and fruits.

Looks so cute & cool in Baker's attire!

Take care and have rest your throat well!

Hi Violet

Must take good care and more rest.
I ever cough for 9 months, visited the doctor almost once to twice a month until he gave me medication for treatment of Asthma. Indeed, sometimes can cough till cannot stand up straight. Very scary.

Hi Violet,

I heard tat Pure honey wont cos phlegm . Better buy those with UMF 15+ , 1 bottle cost abt $40.

"Honey has also been used for centuries as a treatment for sore throats and coughs, and according to recent research may in fact be more effective than most common medicines.
Mixed with lemon juice and consumed slowly, honey coats the throat, alleviating discomfort. The antibacterial and antiseptic properties of honey aid in healing sore throats and laryngitis"

Hi Violet & Prof

My son is now 8 yr old. Since 4 yr old, he brings back classmate's things, eg. pen, eraser...
when ask, he say borrow and forgot to return.
Till now, it still happen. We did ask him to return which he did. We told him if still happen, WE will go and return on his behalf. But once in a while, it happens again!
How do we tell him?

Hi Violet,

I felt that your voice is better today.

I'm also taking Manuka Honey with UMF 15+, as claimed will not caused phelgm. U can try it out.

Take care.

Can I ask Prof whether he can talk on thumb sucking for P2 boy?

Bryan, 8 YOS, Pri 2 kid has the habit of thumb sucking. His sister, 6 YOS, K2 kid do not thumb suck at all.

Breastfed him for 16 mths, not for his sister. Both do not have pacifier since bb.

I have been reminding him not to thumb suck, but not effective at all. Try the reward system for not sucking - but no gd result.

I noticed that he is very active boy and cannot sit still when he does any homework, watch TV and read. He will flipped his leg up semi-sit or he can stand and shake his legs while doing his homework. A lot of pattern, just cannot sit still. Is this good?

But when he suck his thumb, he can sit quietly to do the above. Is this a sign of insecurity or ?

Is there any way of distracting him? Aiyo.....

Hi all

Talking abt Backache after confinement.

I also got this problem . I drink a bottle of Pu Yao Jin and can feel some improvement.

I go through natural birth and I never take epidural . I also got backache prblm cos I think I never rest well during my confinement .

I cannot straighten my back when I bend down to bath my baby or squad down to wash clothes . Now after I drink 1 bottle of the Pu Yao Jin , my back can bend longer and I can squad longer. So I think it help for my case.

粉樱早!医生早!
我每月的经期会提早一星期来临。上个月却迟迟未来。第五个星期我去检查,发现子宫里有瘤(3.7cm).医生给我荷尔蒙药,吃了三天后就来月经了。来量不多,只来三天。去年检查时发现有小粒的卵巢瘤,(子宫没瘤)医生说不要紧。今年检查卵巢瘤没了,子宫有瘤。请问卵巢瘤真的会消失吗?会不会再来?这个月若月经还是迟来,我可以自行吃荷尔蒙药吗?
谢谢!

Hi violet & Dr Chong,
Like to enquire if I will like to combine IVF with Accupunture which they mention will have higher chance of sucess rate, is it true? If yes, then when is the best time to do accupunture? Is it after we do IVF or before the start of any IVF procedure? Also, how many days we need to inject needles into our stomach for ovulation? Thank you very much.
Rgds,
Alice

Hi all,
Thanks to all for your well wishes and remedy for my throat.

For those who wanna buy the 调理袜 for good health, can email me at violetparenting@gmail.com then i will ask sandy to contact you.

Those who asked questions for my Good Parents Program, hope we have answered your question. If not, please leave message again when the guests are on my program again next time.

As for eileen, i think you can forward the mails to the police but i dont know exactly their email address. Maybe can surf the police website to know more: www.spf.gov.sg

I will also ask the Crime Prevention Council member Mr Poh, when he comes in 2 weeks later.
Stay tuned ya!

As for the mole removal,
it is karpo puteh from indian shop.
Then add alkali and some water. Then use toothpick to apply on the mole. Then wait for it to drop.

Hi Violet,

Can help me to see if any paedetrician has answer to my toddler's problem.

My girl is already 18+ months but she is still taking very liquid food. We need to grind her porridge to liquid order to feed her or else she will have problem swallowing. She doesn't bite her food as she just swallow the moment the food is put into her mouth. She needs to drink water when she take porridge.

At this age, she is still not taking small finger food like biscuits, bread or titbits. She will voimt when we stuff tiny bits into her mouth.

We have consulted a few paedetricians but all told us some babies are like that. They told us to be patient and wait till she is older.

Other than this problem, she is a happy girl and her weight is ok.

Any solution?

Thanks...

hello, violet
我有一些问题想请教医生:

我的女儿今年一岁,上星期凌晨突然发高烧,然后就惊风。
我想请问医生,惊风会不会造成生命危险,一定要送院治疗吗?
在家中要如何急救呢?
惊风时,如果咬到舌头,会不会有生命危险?
谢谢!

hi,粉樱
我想请问刘医生一些问题:
我的女儿今年3岁,才十一kg,一天三餐的分量加起来,都不到小半碗的饭,有时完全都不用吃。
而且一天只喝两到三次的奶,每次才5格。

最近她老是说肚子痛,还有脚膝盖酸痛,看过家庭医生又说没问题,不知出了什么问题?
谢谢!

Before pregnant i am 48kg and last weight before deliver my baby is 63.5kg. Now i am 58.5kg. A lots of my friend tell me that i am water swollen (shui zhong) especially on my lower body (leg).

The question i want to ask is,

2)is it because i drink too much water thats why i am shui zhong.

Hi Violet n Professor,

My son is 4yrs+ now. When he is about 2yrs +, he know the letters and some numbers n also love to listen to story. He now show no interest in learning to write letter n numbers. We understand that small kid cannot use the normal pencil, so we bought thick pencil for him hold. How do I help him to show interest in writing n reading without making him scare of learning. Kindly advise. Many thanks.
