Fresh pomegranate

You can use pomegranates as Christmas decorations :)

Natural chemicals found in plants that help protect the body from free radicals, which damage tissues and may contribute to a variety of chronic conditions, such as heart disease, Alzheimer’s and cancer. And 1/2 cup of pomegranate seeds has only 72 calories and 4 grams of fiber!

How much do you charge for a bank certificate at all?

Recently, I plan to apply for US VISA as visitor. So I've been preparing my documentations, such as bank certificate, monthly statement..., something is funny, maybe it's a tip for saving money too. When I go to Chinatown Branch of BMO bank, I was told that they would charge me 10$ for one bank certificate, but I don't need to pay this fee at the other bank around Mcgill metro.

Hard to find a daycare spot for child


Believe it or not, it's too hard to find daycare or home care spots for your children in Montreal. Most children must be in waiting lists at least 1-2 years. In some areas parent have to register public daycare before she is pregnant, that means one must search daycare even 2-3 years in advance. I don't know why there is a shortage of daycare here. I heard that finding daycare and homecares in Canada is very challenging, but I didn't think it's so serious.

"...
Do you have any spot/space available?
No, I'm sorry, It's fully booked.
Can I get on your waiting list?
...
By the way, How much do you charge per day?
Can I visit your daycare?
"

"Why there is a daycare shortage is because too many of these welfare moms are taking full-time spots, dropping their child off at daycare and sitting at home or working under the table , at least get an education, since the government is willing to pay for it.... "

"It is terrible to find a 7 dollar day care in Montreal.I am in need to find a 7 dollar a daycare and willing to go the distance. "


How to find a daycare


"Bottom line, weigh your options, get on those waiting lists as soon as you are pregnant!

Check the providers references, that means call them and visit the center a few times and at different times of the day. "

How to choose a daycare?

Get a Price Estimate
It is important to choose a quality and experienced daycare provider, but you also need one that you can afford.

Get Detailed Information on Experience
Are you willing to take the chance with your child? Most parents aren't.

Ask to See References

Examine Location
A good location is nice, but it is not as important as quality care, experience, and affordability.

Visit During Operating Hours
A visit to a daycare center or in-home daycare is recommended. It is best if you do so during normal business hours. Examine both adults and children. Make sure the environment is one you feel comfortable sending your child to.

How and When to Call a Doctor

Are you gonna give birth? Do you know how to make a good conversion with doctor?

She's still pregnant.
At home
(call hospital)
"Blah blah...How can I help you?"
"I think my wife's water just broke, This is our Doctor's number..."
"Okay, her name please.", "Dr mok is on call tonight, he will call you back within 20 mins"
"Hello, this is Doctor Mok, did you call me? Your wife's having a baby?..."
"Yeah, I think my baby is coming, my wife's water just broke, she's 3centimeter dilated, and the contrations start..."

We asked for a private room, not semi-private room.

At hospital
"Where’s the epidural?"
"There’s no time. You’re fully dilated and 100% effaced."
"Push!"
"I AM PUSHING! You want me to push harder? FINE!"
"Just one more big push!"
"she wanted the baby on her chest"
"as soon as she’s cleaned"
She gave birth to a health baby.
----------
Notes:

If you experience any bleeding or spotting, call your doctor or midwife immediately.

Before you are 37 weeks pregnant you need to call your midwife or doctor immediately if you have contractions more frequently than 10 minutes apart.
