Im in the same boat as you. I stock up on baking soda, the little cans as often as i can and have gotten hydrogen peroxide bottles from the pharmacy. I also get my essential oils from the organic store in dubai mall. I can lend those to you as i know how little quantity you need. I have eucalyptus, peppermint, tea tree, and lavender.

Just a public service announcement for those like me who cannot abide the misshapen, pale local version....get your wallets out! 29.95 dirhams per kg, works out to $20-30 for a medium-sized one! Yay!

Oh no! I was just going to call them for my 'usual' after the summer. So sad, they had great prices, especially for coming to you!

The past threads have always said to stock up when Global Village starts.

You may be tired and feeling flabby but that shouldnt stop you from going out. Its easiest when the baby is little! We had a couple of dr appts after a week, Eid parties after two weeks and were on a plane back home after a month. Dont let the baby stop you from doing anything, play it by ear on how youre feeling! Eta that yes, dont bundle them too much, babies overheat fast! Ive always used Carters onesies and the footsie pjs, they are the best material! Light and comfortable. edited by Chi2dxb on 07/10/2012 <em>edited by Chi2dxb on 07/10/2012</em>

thanks, called him yesterday and he just came today. he saw what was wrong, took the part to get a new one, and said he'd be back in the evening to replace it. i didn't ask him aside from the parts cost, how much his fee is. do you mind me asking, what you paid him?

In the past I have used water in freezer bags. Water expands when it freezes. So if you put zippy bags full of water in your shoes (clean, new shoes) and stick them in the freezer over night the water will freeze and stretch out the shoes. I've felt that this lasts longer as the ice does the stretching instead of your feet. After it's done, I blow dry it to make it warm and to soften up the leather a little more for any extra stretching my feet might do :)

It's def with all the flours, and has semolina written on the bag or can. The Indian word for it is "sooji" if that helps

A prune a day is your best bet. Tell your child that is their vitamin and once they start taking it everyday, it will really help keep them regular.
