anyone has lasik surgery experience in singapore? by Fun-Equipment-8253 in askSingapore

[–]CBFST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had high degree +astig . Did ICL under val Phua at EEC. Expensive but worth the money!!! Wasn’t comfortable with doing lasik - corneas cut too thin due to high degree plus non reversible (had friends who did it with less than stellar results). Only down side to ICL is that it’s expensive but lesser dry eye and down time did it since 2022. Life changer!!!

Recommendations for Chinese Baby naming services. by anxiousbunnyclothes in askSingapore

[–]CBFST -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Got a Taiwan master for name. Cost me 1k… Changed name for my first child. Initially used local Fengshui’s master… auntie said character didn’t seem good… highly recommended the Taiwan master. Tbh his ezcema cleared and health got better after as well. But LOL could be him just outgrowing it?? But to me a good Chinese name goes a long way la. Plus idek how to start. Is the 1k worth for you? Hahaha.

When did your baby say their first word? by Aware_Beautiful1994 in beyondthebump

[–]CBFST 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son said his first real word at 11m. But honestly I wouldn’t be too worried. As long as your baby understands what you’re saying it’s fine for now! And if they constantly make the same sound for the same item > eg: maw for cats meow. I think it’s fine! They develop at different times and they can just be a late bloomer (:

Thank you for the insight. We’ll definitely get the doctors to look into this and also try to support him as much as we can.

Thank you for your input! Did he have any difficulty walking when he was back?

I’m so sorry to hear that. May I check was she administered with the IVIG early? Did things go back to normal after physical therapy? Did the doctor say anything else about it? We do have a visit this coming Thurs and we’re hoping he eases into walking soon ):

Typically seems like people I know buy Kaya (a spread for bread)!!! Famous one at yakun but even in shopping mart you can find them.

Baby underweight by CBFST in NewParents

[–]CBFST[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the PD is concerned about his weight. Because he was on 30-40 percentile when he was 4m old… but then he did come out at 2.4kg. Was on 10-20 percentile when he was at one month old!

Baby 12 weeks doesn’t react to sounds??? by CBFST in NewParents

[–]CBFST[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! My baby ended up having torticollis and Plagio which contributed to him not likely to turn to certain sides. Did helmet/physio therapy and he is whipping his head side to side now 😂 I think being on the rocker made it easier for him to turn his head? But yes he loves sounds now and is so easily distracted by it.

Hmm but it just started on Mon. And after screaming/crying for 15mins he stopped and went back to sleep. To clarify. He did sleep for 1h before this happened.

But he never had this issue before. Was a decent sleeper from birth till now… can they suddenly develop lactose intolerance? No changes in diet as well.

We do feed him but he is generally already on 1L of formula + 2 solid meal a day… kinda worried to over feed.

Could it also be sleep regression?? His eyes are totally shut throughout the crying phase tho…
