    the effect on girls are not known.. haha.. but i highly doubt the major reason contribue to the breast development is the mom help the boys rub their breast

    Many boys these days have relatively big nen-nen. But its most likely due to being overweight, not lavender oil, lah !.

    Eat too much good food, sit in front of the computer the whole afternoon, munching away on snacks….which by the way is what I’m doing….heh…heh..heh…

    bengbeng : Eating is also my passion :) it is fun and gives a sense of satisfaction
