labis akong nagalak nang ika'y makita
na-miss talaga kita
dali-dali kitang pinuntahan
habang pasili-silip ng dahan-dahan
umupo ako sa harapan mo
ngunit ako ngayo'y nagtatampo
ang lamig pala ng aircon mo!

sabi ko na eh, blog addict na talaga ako. i wrote this poem while supposedly listening to a speaker at a post graduate course in pediatrics at the century park hotel the other day. totoo naman kasing ang lamig ng aircon! lahat ng tao madalas lumabas sa ballroom para pumunta ng cr o maglakad-lakad sa labas at mag-hb (hanap buhay - tawag namin sa pagkuha ng mga samples at give aways ng mga drug companies sa ganitong mga scientific conferences).

madami akong natutunan...

1.) baby shampoos are better coz it is less irritating to the eyes
2.) there's no harm in shampooing our baby's hair everyday
3.) baby wipes are not advisable coz it contains chemicals that can harm your baby's skin, it is still better to use water when cleaning your baby
4.) use sun protection (i.e. protective clothings, hats, sun blocks, etc) especially between 10 am & 2 pm
5.) for children with headaches, ibuprofen and your ordinary paracetamol is safe and effective
6.) for constipated children, give apple JUICE but for those with diarrhea, give the FRUIT
7.) vitamin supplements are actually not needed if our children eats a balanced diet BUT those who are given vitamins would still need to eat a balanced diet
8.) several studies have shown that vitamins do not have an effect on appetite and growth
