Ask any new mother what are some of the challenges that she faces after child birth and rarely will you hear constipation being listed as one of them. Constipation is a widespread and common problem but most people are embarrassed to talk about it and instead, choose to brush this issue aside. In most cases, it is difficult to pinpoint a single cause as constipation is caused by a combination of things that have a negative impact on the digestive system.

P7040035

Some of the symptoms of constipation include:

When travelling
Our bodies are creatures of habit, and so a change in your normal daily routine can affect your toilet habits. Sometimes even going to unfamiliar toilets might have effect on your bowel movement. Or, if you’ve been worrying about using the loos on a plane, or a long car journey, it can have an effect. New places, eating different types of food or getting dehydrated when you’re abroad can leave you constipated too.

Stress
Feeling a bit stressed out lately? It might be affecting your gut. If you’re struggling with work datelines, money worries, relationship dramas or going through a big change in your life, it can have a knock on effect on your digestive system, as can long term stress.

Hormones
A lot of women say they get a bit constipated just before their period every month. Is that you?

P7040031

I’m sure many of you have had your fair share of experience with constipation at some point in your life and wondered what is the best or most effective way of treating this seemingly embarrassing problem. The best news is.. YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Also, there is nothing to be embarrassed about as it is a common problem that can happen to anyone and everyone, babies included especially if they are formula fed.

Apart from babies, constipation can also occur to their mothers, which explains the whole objective of my blog post today, that is to share about my experience with postpartum constipation when I was a new mum myself last year. Actually, some mothers might experience constipation during pregnancy as the pregnancy hormones relaxes and slows down the movement of food through the intestines. As pregnancy progresses, the baby gets bigger and increased downward pressure on the pelvic area makes constipation more likely to occur.

_MG_1468

Towards the end of my third trimester, I began to feel a little constipated and things didn’t improve even after I delivered. I guess it was also because of all the pain and stitching after a natural vaginal birth that made me extra apprehensive about trying to move my bowels in the hospital. I mean, wouldn’t it be scary if your stitches rip apart?! The thought of it is enough to turn my legs into jelly. I remember confiding in my gynae that I was worried about not being able to empty my bowels before I was being discharged and she readily got a nurse to administer a rectal suppository for me.

P7170039

Despite having a confinement nanny, my first two weeks being a new mother was a stressful period and I was in great pain most of the time. Instead of light exercises like walking or swimming which I used to do when I was pregnant, I was in bed all the time, except when I had to eat or visit the bathroom. As for my diet, confinement foods are known to be slightly on the heaty side as mothers are supposed to avoid cooling foods during confinement. In addition to this, I was also taking iron supplements. I believe all these factors contributed to my postpartum constipation in one way or another, and when a fellow mummy told me to give Dulcolax Laxative Tablets a try, I thought why not?

P8241766

Upon hearing the brand “Dulcolax”, I thought it rings a bell and later found out that Dulcolax is the World’s number 1 laxative being around in the market for more than 60 years, providing effective relief for constipation in more than 50 countries worldwide. Also, it is readily available in all leading pharmacies such as Watsons, Guardian and Unity, which probably explains why Dulcolax sounded so familiar to me. The brand must have been registered in my mind subconsciously when I was browsing shelves upon shelves in the pharmacies!

P8241773

When I first got my hands on a box of Dulcolax Laxative Tablets, I was a little doubtful that these tablets would get the job done. They are sooo tiny! But really, do not judge the effectiveness of a laxative tablet by its size. I later found out for myself that these tablets are minuscule but powerful! Dulcolax is a gentle laxative and is gentle on the stomach because it acts only when it is needed, at the bowel. Dulcolax laxative tablets must be swallowed whole with water and must not be chewed or crushed because these tablets have a special ‘enteric coating’ which prevents the active ingredient from being released until it reaches the part of the intestines where it is needed to work.

P7170018

Whenever I feel constipated, I use Dulcolax Laxative Tablets about 30 minutes to an hour before my bedtime as it takes about 8 to 12 hours to work. This laxative is safe, providing gentle yet effective overnight relief. Although constipation is a common problem, most people tend to delay seeking relief with laxatives because of the many myths and misconceptions surrounding constipation and laxatives which are not evidence based. Having tried and tested these Dulcolax Laxative Tablets myself, I find it really work for me! As a breastfeeding mother, I know most mums would be concerned if the active or derivative components of the laxatives get passed into mother’s milk and the answer is NO for Dulcolax! They have a proven study to support this.

P7170049

I’m glad to have found an effective solution for my constipation! In the past, I was not comfortable of taking laxative because I thought it would be addictive and harsh. Thanks to Dulcolax Tablets for solving my constipation problem, improving my quality of life!

If you are not entirely sure if you are suffering from constipation, feel free to take a simple quiz or share your own experience with constipation here http://www.myconstipationrelief.com/get_your_solution/symptom_checker.html
Lastly, let’s remember to treat constipation during its early stages before things turn complicated! Dulcolax Laxative Tablets can be found in all leading pharmacies.

National Day Parade 2015: Air Partcipation

Since I was a little girl, I have always enjoyed watching the National Day Parade (NDP) on the television with my family on the day Singapore celebrates her birthday. This year will be no different, except that we are going to be celebrating a huge milestone for the very first time ever, SG50! I am totally looking forward to NDP 2015 where we commemorate our nation’s achievements in the past 50 years. Although we are a small nation, I’m really proud that Singaporeans are united as one and have come a long way to achieve what we have today. Now, we shall look towards a bright future together!

This year’s Air Participation segment at the NDP will feature 50 aircraft – the largest number to participate in the NDP at the Padang – with the execution of unprecedented aerial manoeuvres. Proudly put up by the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF), Singaporeans can anticipate a spectacular aerial display, showcasing elements of precision flying and aerial finesse.

“Five Stars” Tribute Aerial Flypast

Photo 2 F

In remembrance of the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, the RSAF Black Knights will execute the “Five Stars” Tribute Aerial Flypast as part of the tribute segment in the Prologue of the NDP 2015 Show. It signifies Singapore’s ideals of democracy, peace, justice and equality.

State Flag flypast

The traditional flypast of the State Flag across the Padang will take place during the singing of the National Anthem. It will be staged by a CH-47 Chinook helicopter, escorted by two AH-64D Apache helicopters. During this solemn and dignified moment, the Flypast Marshall will play a key role in coordinating ground and aerial activities to ensure the smooth execution of the State Flag flypast.

Salute-to-Nation

Photo 1 F

As part of the RSAF’s Salute-to-Nation, Singaporeans will get to witness the unprecedented “50” formation, comprising 20 F-16s.

Additionally, Knights will perform an aerial bomb-burst where the F-16s execute a fan-out manoeuver to round off a magnificent Salute-to-Nation.

Aerial Flypast

This year’s aerial flypast segment will feature the following elements respectively:

  • A combined helicopter formation, led by two S-70B naval helicopters and featuring two AS-332 Super Pumas, two AH-64D Apaches and two Chinooks, will kick-start the flypast with an “Arrowhead” formation.
  • A C-130 transport aircraft and two Fokker 50 (FK-50) Maritime Patrol aircraft executes the “VIC” formation. This will be followed by a KC-135 tanker aircraft and a G550-Airborne Early Warning (AEW) aircraft, escorted by four F-5 fighter aircraft flying in close formation.
  • Thereafter, the Black Knights will put up a high-octane performance that will excite spectators at the Padang and around the Marina Bay area. A formation of four Black Knights will perform the “Criss Cross” manoeuver with smoke trails, followed by two Black Knights executing a near-vertical climb.
  • A solo F-15SG fighter aircraft executes a combat turn over the Padang, showcasing the aircraft’s precision and agility. The F-15SG will culminate its performance with a dazzling near-vertical climb with afterburners.
  • For the finale, three F-15SGs will execute a ”Flat Burst” manoeuver as they make their exit, concluding the aerial display on a high note.

    • Doesn’t the air participation segment at this year’s NDP sound promising already? Let us all look forward to the NDP on 9th August! 🙂

    Power Our Dads’ Smiles with Oral B Power Toothbrush this Father’s Day!

    Yoohoo! Father’s Day is just around the corner! I’m so excited to share what I’m giving my father this year that I can hardly contain my excitement! But first things first, how many of you are actually getting a gift for your fathers? Do you know that 12% of children in Singapore would get their mum a present but not their dad because dads are harder to shop for? I admit that thinking of what to get for my dad as his Father’s Day present is getting more challenging each year because I’m running out of gift ideas! It’s always the same few things – shirt, tie, belt or wallet! This year, I thought long and hard. Ever since I was in secondary school, I have had female friends and colleagues telling me that my dad is very youthful and suave for his age. Of course, I’m secretly happy to hear such compliments about my old man and it has also helped me decide what to get him for Father’s Day! My dad is a typical man who loves gadgets so why not give him the perfect gadget to power his smile? Certainly, he’s gonna look more charming than ever! Hehe.

    P5310146-001

    Since young, my dad had been emphasizing to my brother and I, the importance of brushing and flossing our teeth. When it comes to oral health and hygiene, the one brand which I can trust is Oral-B because it is the worldwide leader in the brushing market. Part of the Procter & Gamble Company, the Oral-B brand includes manual and power toothbrushes for children and adults, oral irrigators and also interdental products, such as dental floss. In fact, Oral-B manual toothbrushes are used by more dentists than any other brand in the U.S. and many international markets.

    P5310097

    As our fathers age, there is an even greater need for them to take care of their oral health and hygiene as the natural aging process takes a toll on their teeth. As children, we should educate them on the need to make the switch to power toothbrushes! I’m sure most of our fathers are quite stubborn resistant to change as they are very comfortable with manual toothbrushes which they have been using all their lives.

    P5310125

    P5300032

    Lately, my dad has been complaining that his gums bleed even though he had tried a few different types of manual brushes but none seem to work for him. It was also because of this which prompted me to get my dad a set of Oral B Power Toothbrush – Professional Care 3000 (D20 3 Mode), in addition to the good reviews that I had read online!

    P5310110

    Here’s taking a quick glance at the unique and outstanding features of the Oral B Power Toothbrush – Professional Care 3000:
    – 3D Technology: Oscillating / Rotating + Pulsating
    – 8,800 Oscillations Per Minute
    – 40,000 Pulsations Per Minute
    – Visual Pressure Sensor help reduce brushing force
    – 3 Brushing Modes – Daily Clean, Sensitive, Polish

    P5310130

    With up to 48,800 unique oscillating / Rotating + Pulsating movements per minute compared to merely 600 for regular manual brushing, it is no surprise that the Oral B Power Brush cleans FIVE times better along the gum lines compared to manual brushes! That’s very impressive considering the fact that people usually neglect brushing along the gum lines which is extremely important too.

    P5310127

    Also, the Oral B Professional Care 3000 allows you to set a timer so that you can be sure that brushing takes place for at least 2 minutes. By incorporating 3D-technology which is supported by numerous internal and external studies both clinical and laboratory, the 2 motions – oscillation and pulsation provide a thorough cleanse tooth-by-tooth. The Oral B Professional Care 3000 also features a pressure sensor that helps reduce unnecessary brushing force that is exerted on your teeth and gums!

    P5310103

    I have done my part to protect my dad’s smile with the Oral B Professional Care 3000! You should do so too this Father’s Day!

    P5310099

    From 8 to 21 June 2015, there is an Oral B Power Brush Father’s Day Giveaway Instagram contest.

    During my school days, I had a love-hate relationship with mathematics. Thankfully, I had competent tutors to turn to and of course, practice makes perfect! I have not been in touch with the current curriculum and syllabus being taught in schools and honestly, the seemingly difficult and impossible to crack Mathematics questions that have gone viral online makes me feel very worried that as a parent, I might not be able to guide Chanelle in her studies, especially when she enters primary school in future.

    Koobits 1 in 5

    I found out about KooBits ProblemSums online portal, which is currently used by 1 in 5 primary school students to help improve their mathematics. I have nieces and nephews who are in primary school, so I thought I would recommend KooBits to them if I really find it useful!

    Pri 1 topics

    Here’s taking a glance at the Primary 1 mathematics topics.

    Dashboard

    From the dashboard, users can select “Self Practice”, “Homework” or “Challenge”. Parents can also register and view their child’s performance report and also get alerted on their child’s homework.

    P1 mechanical sums

    Within “Self Practice”, there are mechanical sums, problem sums and high ability questions to complete.

    Self practice 1

    Students can zoom in on areas that they are particularly weak in and keep practicing until they feel confident about moving on. I reckon it’s really cool that there are short and concise videos which are supposed to help children retain information in a more efficient manner.

    Self practice 2

    Questions are labelled according to their level of difficulty. There is also a video tutorial for every question that serves as a step-by-step guide. I feel that this is very conducive in promoting self-learning in children.

    Homework March 2015

    Apart from homework created automatically by KooBits, teachers and parents can also log into the Maths portal and create new homework for the children!

    Create Homework

    Homework creation seems like a no-brainer!

    Daily Challenge

    I believe most kids will enjoy the KooBits Challenge! Besides the daily challenges that they can participate in, students can also challenge their friends and win prizes.

    Watch this video and find out more about KooBits and how it can benefit your child!

    Parents, feel free to make the best out of the 6 months FREE trial offered by KooBits by clicking here http://products.koobits.com/problemsums/singapore

    OSIM uMagic: The World’s First Magic Hands Technology

    I’m not afraid to admit that I cannot live without my iPhone. It’s the first thing I greet every morning and the last before I go to bed at night. It has to be with me 24/7 (except when I’m taking a shower of course) and I find myself constantly texting friends and loved ones, replying tons of emails and also checking out social media updates on Facebook and Instagram. Alarm bells started to ring when I realized my fingers becoming numb after excessive usage of my phone! It was then that I knew I had to give my fingers a break. It was quite worrying, so I decided to find out more about it online.

    DSCF6894-001

    Apparently, I was suffering from ‘Text Neck’, a global epidemic resulting from widespread overuse of handheld devices, causing repeated stress on your neck while looking down at the screens! I was shocked that the strain on my neck actually travelled all the way down to my fingers! Not only that, I face the computer for hours on end at work. I know that instead of adopting a good sitting posture, I’m so used to hunching over, which further strains the muscles on my neck and shoulders. At times, I go home with a bad headache, or neck and back pain. To further aggravate my problem, I have to take care of Chanelle when I reach home from work and she weighs about 10kg now! She’s not even learning how to walk yet, so I have to carry her in my arms and boy, I can really feel the additional strain on my back and shoulders! Sometimes I find myself lamenting to misterchewy that I seriously need to sign up for a massage package and beat myself back into shape but who am I kidding? I cannot stand some stranger touching me, let alone give me a massage for 60 minutes. I tried getting misterchewy to massage my shoulders but obviously, he’s not trained to do good job (hehe.. sorry hubby!).

    Application Shot_06

    After years of innovative massage technology, OSIM’s latest massage chair, uMagic, is the perfect solution to ease the tight and tense muscles around our head and shoulders. OSIM uMagic offers massage movements similar to a masseur’s hands with finger pressure and grip to relieve aching neck and shoulders.

    A32A6304

    I put uMagic’s signature ‘Magic Moments’ program to the test and viola! If I’m not allowed to use the word SHIOK, I would say that it feels MAGICAL. Why magical? I was treated to a powerful, deep-tissue massage with life-like hand movements by OSIM uMagic! The patented hand-grip massage is the world’s first Magic Hands massage technology, designed to extract and relieve deep-seated muscle aches and tension especially around the neck and shoulders with its 7 levels of protrusion.

    A32A6305

    I also tried another uMagic’s signature program, ‘Shoulder Delight’, which is specially designed for quick relief of neck and shoulder ache by devoting 80% of uMagic’s unique hand-grip massage technique attending to the neck and shoulders and 20% for loosening tension and stiffness on the lower back. Unlike the conventional massage chairs that massages the bones of the shoulder blades without providing much relief, which is pretty much superficial, I could really feel the uMagic easing the tension of the muscles of my neck and shoulders. After 15 minutes on the uMagic, I walked away feeling liberated!

    A32A6356

    Besides the above mentioned signature programs, the OSIM uMagic also has an extensive suite of Lifestyle Massage Programs that are tailored to satisfy the diverse needs and well-being of the family. For instance, ‘Chill Out’ provides head-to-toe pampering to unwind and relax the body and mind, ‘Lumbar Care’ maintains a healthy back by loosening lower back tension, while ‘Sports Recovery’ promotes relaxation and recovery of muscles used in sports, and many more. As you can see, the types of massages provided are very diverse and there is something for everyone!

    Application Shot_08

    I was deeply impressed upon learning that users can even download new massage programs into the OSIM Massage Chair App on their devices and transfer them into the OSIM uMagic! This is certainly very value for money!

    Beauty Shot_03 with Cropping Guide

    One other thing which struck me was how elegant and sophisticated the OSIM uMagic is. Prior to this, I was under the impression that massage chairs were bulky, dull and boring; something which I would never want to have in my house. The uMagic exudes classiness and is incredibly sexy, with its streamlined design and polished chrome plated curvatures. Gotta love the quilted and modern weave inspired leatherette. I would say that the uMagic is certainly a beautiful piece of art! Apart from that, the foot massager can be fully retracted under the seat to provide more living space. When extended completely, it can be used as a calves-ankles-feet massager for a more holistic massage. Impressive!

    A32A6343

    If you are like me, who suffer from neck and back aches all the time, I urge you to experience OSIM’s Magic Hands massage technology at any OSIM outlet! Your muscles will thank me, or rather the OSIM uMagic after that 😉
    The OSIM uMagic retails at a special introductory price of $4988 (UP $5288). It is available at all OSIM outlets, road shows and online at www.OSIM.com

    Win a 5D4N Japan Trip for 2 with Ayataka Green Tea!

    Konnichiwa~! Want to win a 5D4N trip for two to Japan? Read on!

    I am a huge fan of Japanese green tea and ever since I was given the opportunity to sample Heaven and Earth Ayataka Japanese Green Tea back in the middle of 2013, I am truly a convert and have never looked back!

    Before my experience with Ayataka, I was mainly drinking Japanese green tea in the form of powder (matcha) or tea bags. I was intrigued by Ayataka not only because it comes in cans and bottles, but also due to the amazing fact that Ayataka Japanese Green Tea is brewed using carefully selected tea leaves, contains no preservatives, and is both sugar free and calorie free!

    A32A6197

    Besides that, Ayataka is not your ordinary ready-to-drink green tea. Do you know that Ayataka contains matcha powder and a unique blend of natural ingredients which creates distinct cloudiness just like authentic Japanese teapot-brewed tea! The cloudiness can be seen just by gently swirling the bottle before drinking and you can enjoy the experience of drinking traditional green tea anywhere and everywhere!

    Just to share, in a taste test conducted in Kyoto, Japan, with 100 maiko (apprentice geisha) and geiko (geisha), Ayataka emerged amongst other leading Japanese green tea brands in Singapore as the closest to authentic Japanese teapot brewed tea, as well as the best tasting Japanese green tea!

    A32A6152

    I reckon that Ayataka Japanese Green Tea goes extremely well with just about any type of food! However, I’m more inclined to pair it with my favorite Japanese cuisine and I personally find that Ayataka Japanese Green Tea tastes best when it is chilled!

    10430430_459432684220004_6698076157109776965_n

    Win a 5D4N trip for two to Japan with Ayataka! Show us how you best enjoy the authentic taste of Ayataka, the ready-to-drink Japanese green tea that tastes closest to teapot-brewed tea. $100 vouchers to Yoshinoya will also be awarded to one chosen entry each week. Stay tuned!

    A32A6193-horz

    Hello everyone! Have you ever bought something, only to realize that it does not suit your needs or is not exactly to your liking? It used to happen to me and I either had to discard the product or give it away to someone else! Well, that was way before I found out about Sample Store! Hey I’m sure most of you are familiar with, or at least would have heard of Sample Store because it is the leading online try-verstising platform in Singapore that offers FREE SAMPLES and FREE MEMBERSHIP!

    Sample Store baby category

    Mummies like me will be pleased to know that there is a new Baby & Kids category on Sample Store. Apart from kids related products, you can even find trial music and maths classes for your kids! However, as it is a relatively new category, samples are limited but not to worry, there will be more in the near future! There is also a short survey that you can fill in after registering where you can indicate the brands and products that you are interested in. I would definitely like to sample various diaper brands as well as baby food!

    If you have a particular product in mind that you would like to sample, simply key in your search in the search box, or filter your search by checking off the types of products (e.g. face mask) that you are keen in! I’m definitely keen on the eye masks! Was quite thrilled to receive a travel-sized Darlie Expert White toothpaste which I’m gonna bring along for my trip! Occasionally, there will be regular-sized products available for sampling, so keep your eyes peeled!

    Together with me and 130,000 other members, sign up now for FREE on www.samplestore.com!
