Baby Talk - September 2022

En este asunto

We can all agree that family vacations make for some of the best memories of
bonding, plus far-flung holidays are a fantastic way for children to expand their mind
as they experience various cultures, ways of life, food, languages. While we savour
that long overdue getaway with new-found appreciation, let’s not let our guards
down as the threat of Covid-19 persists, albeit on a milder scale, with Omicron and
diseases like Monkeypox claiming their share of headlines these days. There is
certainly no room for complacency. Keep adhering to SOPs regardless of destination,
and make cleanliness a topmost priority to ensure the health and safety of yourself
and your family.

Now, a little sneak peek at what’s in store in this edition of BabyTalk. First up, the
highly-anticipated BabyTalk & MamaPapa Readers’ Choice Awards returns! The 2022
edition once again celebrates Malaysia’s exceptional brands in the industries of
parenting, baby and kids, and maternity care – each nominated and voted for by
YOU, the readers and consumers. The awards are indeed a true testament to the
unwavering commitment to consistently provide end-users with only the best, so our
heartiest congratulations go out to all the deserving winners!

Also in this issue, we bring you the lowdown on the Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease (a
total of 106,477 cases reported in Malaysia this year alone) via Dr Melanie Majaham,
Consultant Paediatrician – Sunway Medical Centre Velocity. If you’re a concerned
parent unsure about your child’s development, his/her stature in particular, then join
Dr Wu Loo Ling, Senior Consultant Paediatrician and Paediatric Endocrinologist
– Subang Jaya Medical Centre, as she explains what defines a normal rate or
otherwise, and the steps you could take to help your child.
