Hi MLR,


Thank you so much for your input. After observing him a few days, he started to take some meat and vegetable. I am wondering could it be the hot weather since last week, thus so how or rather it affects his appetite?

Nevertheless, I still continue to give him Lysine (tablet form with multi-Vits).

There is another new case, he keeps "mingle" with his little penis and when I asked him why, he said "pain pain". When I checked further, I saw some rashes around the tip. I guess he might have scratched it.

My question is can I use those cream which I have used for his face/hand rashes to apply on his little penis (very important and sensitive part). The cream I am using now is called "Physiogel Hypoallergenic"?

Thank you.

Hi MLR, I have replied your PM. Please check your mail. Thx.

Hi Daisyt, thank you. I will make a trip to the library and have a look.

Hi Bigeyedfish,


Please PM me as well. Recently, my sister-in-law submitted the PV application at BPPS. Thanks.

Hello, where are the north side parents? Your input are greatly appreciated. I need your comment/info on Si Ling Primary. SOS!

Hi Bigeyedfish, which school are you targeting at?

Appreciate for your encouragement. I don’t mind to be a housemaker provided I am financially stable and I want to give my son the best. But now I am jobless, somehow I feel that I have let my wife and son down. For example, I can’t buy his favourite toy and initially I want to put him to Montessori but now plan has to be changed.


Nevertheless, everyday I am telling myself to stay strong and I should be very lucky to have a lovely wife and son.

Currently we are staying put at my in-laws home and the good thing is we don’t need to worry about housing loan. But at the end of the day, we still need to have our own shelter. As I am jobless now, my new role is being a homemaker now so that my wife can fully focus on her career.

Hi Jedamum,


Everyone has 2 chances of getting HDB loan but with attached condition. For example, total combined income must be less than $8K/mth. If one has taken housing grant for the 1st home, the 2nd home (from open market) purchase must be a bigger unit than the 1st home. The only way to purchase the same or down size unit is to get bank loan.

Since I am jobless now without any income, we can take advantage of HDB loan for the 2nd time. If not, we will not able to do it. Thus, I am not sure whether it is blessing in disguise at this time when I lost my job. Honestly, my wife and I feel kind of pinch to pay >$400k for an old HDB executive apartment or maisonette. My 1st home was a 5-room.

Hence my wife is considering a condo in Woodlands area by paying a bit more. She hopes to provide our only child with a nice environment as well as to reward herself since she has been working so hard.

Any comment on Si Ling primary school?
