Mummies, is it ok to give fish oil at night ?

Fish oil is better to be given in the morning. It helps them focus better for the day.

Some other things I did to prepare my child for P1 are:

- Teach him to change from uniform to PE attire in the toilet with shoes on.
- Teach him what to do when he needs to do big business.
- Teach him how to pack his belongings.
- - Explain some school rules. eg \"leave belongings outside library\" does not include the coins and handkerchief in your pocket.
- Warn him about some classmates who give him bad \"advice\"
Losing things is inevitable. Just label everything and bring the cheap kind that nobody wants and he will find them still there the next day. I also discourage my child from borrowing library books.

That's all I remember

Hahaha, ya lor. So far my boy's therapists haven't said such a thing. Just that he hasn't met the age appropriate milestones or just slower.

I think it is ok to give at anytime.

I give him fish oil at night before bedtime. Several reports show that the DHA in fish oil help to inhibit cortisol, which is a stress hormone. In other words, I hope it can help him to sleep better lah.

In the morning, I added a teaspoon of flaxseed into his rice porridge breakfast. Flaxseed also got omega 3 and vitamin Bs for energy.

My boy's therapists give different opinions, some say I should pull him back or place him in special school because he isn't up to the level required for primary school, his language skill is only at kindergarten level blah blah (honestly, I see a couple of pathlight kids in my boy's speech therapy class do better than him). While some other, including the psychiatrist at IMH said better don't rock the boat since the school isn't complaining much nowadays and he didn't fail any of the subjects.

I was told not to give fish oil at night as it will make them alert and have difficulty sleeping.
