    yeah they are importing them in, it usually works like this: one mama goers abroad, has a friend abroad and everyone places orders with her, but now there are taobao stores online that sell imported formula,toys,clothes everything … my wife sells a lot of American baby products that we have sent here for us and for the mamanet ladies.

    most chinese mamas look to the web for their goods, because they don’t trust any products sold IN china, regardless of whether or not they are imports. This might sound extreme … you can check out the Giving Birth in Chengdu Series for a bit more info too. All in all, there is no problem having a child here in Chengdu. Everything is available and even if it is not like home, things still work out fine here.

    I will be writing about buying the stuff you mentioned in my next story.

    Excellent. I know (and love) the Yulin market and the Xinjiang Spot Shinichi mentioned is on Fang Hua Jie down the street from Machu Pichu Coffee house.

    There is a spot down the street from the market, on the north side of Ni Jia Qiao Road. You guys might know it, its a brick wall with most of the buildings torn down behind it, but if you walk through the little hole in the wall and head north you will find a bunch of little restaurants there. My favorite is 天天饭店. Ask for it. The hole in the brick wall is halfway between the market and ren min nan lu on the left hand (north) side.

    drool drool
