Hong Kong's Premier Pregnancy, Baby and Parenting Community

The economic situation doesn't seem to be affecting Hong Kong's Disneyland this year, in terms of spirit and decorations. Though the numbers for the park have not exceeded expectations, many still showed up for the opening of Disneyland's "A Sparkling Christmas" event on Nov. 28.

Food safety is key to your baby’s health, particularly when melamine has been found exceeding the safety level in many milk products recently. To address public concern, the Hong Kong Government has sampled a number of products to test out whether they contain melamine that threatens people’s health. Healthy Times’ Whole Grain Cereals for Baby (Oatmeal, Barley, Brown Rice and Mixed Grain) and Teddy Puffs for Toddlers have been sampled and the Government has just announced that they are safe on October 11, 2008 In fact, all Healthy Times ingredients, are produced and manufactured in the US.

What are Plagiocephaly and Brachycephaly?

Plagiocephaly and Brachycephaly are terms that refer to flatness in the shape of the head. Plagiocephaly refers to flattening of the head in any of the four quadrants of the cranium (back, front, left, right). It is this condition that often results in the asymmetry of the head and face. The ear, forehead and cheek bone on the flattened side of the head will protrude forward. Brachycephaly means that either the front or the back of the head lack projection. This condition is not usually characterized by asymmetry of the ears and facial bones.
