Kinder Clinic Paragon: Alex's Pediatrician- Dr Kenny Ee

Thought I'll share this as it has benefited us greatly. I heard many horror stories about the children's PD and we are quite thankful that we found a really good pediatrician for Alex in Singapore.

I am not sure if it will apply to your child but Alex loves this PD for some reason. Dr Kenny Ee tended to him since he was born and the amazing part is that Alex never cries despite the injections when he is under Dr Kenny Ee. I mean of course he whines a little when the needle is poking through him but then the moment it's done, he is fine again. And he loves smiling at Dr Ee too, G and I call him the baby whisperer..haha

Onae side note, we did try to go to another highly raved PD in Marine Parade but he doesn't seem too concern or friendly towards Alex or us. The receptionist/nurse is not approachable at all. The clinic is situated within a neighbourhood and we would expect the fees to be lower than Kinder Clinic however the bill came out to be the same. Therefore we concluded we should just stick with Dr Ee at Kinder.

Overview:
Pros

Alex likes the PD and is at ease during all the consultations.
Dr Ee is very friendly, easy to ask him questions and he does a thorough check of the baby.
Nurses are friendly and approachable
Convenient location
Reasonable pricing

Cons

1. Need to make appointments way ahead (like 2-3 weeks). The schedules are very packed!
Walk-ins, unless you do so first thing in the morning, has a very long waiting time. (we waited 2 hours before)

Left: The lineup before the clinic opens
Right: Alex still smiling after the injections.

Opting for a Natural Birth without Epidural

Thinking of an all natural birth? You are not the only mad one. " Ladies, I've decided." I announced abruptly a couple of weeks ago during lunch. All three of my buddies cum colleagues stopped in in their tracks; and put down the burgers that I sort of coerced them to eat because of my unusual craving. "I'm going for an Au Naturale birth." I said in a very determined tone. Mitch, who opted for elective caesarean when she had her son, looked at me wide-eyed and exclaimed, " You mean without epidural?" " Yes without epidural." I sounded somewhat proud with myself. Fung, as her usual no-nonsense self, asked bluntly, " So what's your treshold of pain?" Without hesitation, I replied, " Very bad." --- SO WHY OPT FOR A NATURAL BIRTH WITHOUT EPIDURAL? --- Pros of Natural Birth (With or Without Epidural) 1. Ability to move freely during labour 2. Reduced risk of blood loss or other complications af

Car Free Sunday in Jakarta Downtown

We were heading to church at IES (International English Service), when we realised that both routes that the GPS recommended were all blocked. We got down and decided to check it out. Totally not geared in any sporty outfits, we looked pretty out of place strolling in my yellow jumpsuit(wore this especially for church! Yellow = happy...haha) and Ferragamos. How strange but cool at the same time! Empty roads in Jakarta. LOTS of cyclist as well as joggers. Some booths selling bikes. More people cycling. Decided to keep a picture of me standing right in the middle of the road. That's the only time I can do so, right? Cyclist, joggers and skaters all congregated. Can you spot the children skating? We thought it is a really great movement implemented by the Indonesian Government. You could really find groups of friends and family gathering for this; either just strolling, sitting along the road, cycling, etc. We would definitely bring Alex for on

Fashion and Makeup Tricks For The Lazy Beauty

I was going through all my posts and realised that there isn't a single one on fashion. It's a little cliche since the blog is named Mummynista... Hence I decided that I should probably start blogging a little more on fashion and beauty and not just food. Otherwise, I might just need to change the blog name to Fatmamanista. *cackles* If you've read ' About Me ' or knew me personally back then, you would probably know how much I used to dress up. Everyday WAS 'I need to be fabulous' day. However since pregnancy and giving birth, my fashion laziness just escalated. Nevertheless, I need to reinforce the emphasis of still looking good. Even as wives, we still need to stay competitive...if you get what I mean. I go by these subconscious rules nowadays: 1. Buy clothes that does not require ironing. Have at least one body flattering jeans. 2. Scarfs are my best friends on lazy days. 3. To look like I've put in some effort dressing up- wear sandals i
