Yeah.. getting a maid is a gamble :| My maid good with my gal and reasonablely hardworking.. but hor.. she very "smart ah-leck" *sigh* she bathe my gal with vinegar without telling me when my gal has fever. *sigh* I had to give her a lecture on instructions and consultation.

hi crystal
we don't know each other (me from april '08 thread) but just want to give feedback on your comment about maid not obeying a young/younger employer. i have a maid, and would like to share with u that u needn't worry about that. bcos even though a maid may be older than u in terms of years, u will find that those from backward countries (myanmar, indo) have a more suaku mindset and are less educated than u. those fresh maids are less street-savvy than u too. so when they come here, with the fast-pace and more modern lifestyle, they don't have an edge, age-wise. when they come here, they have lots to learn, and will have to take your instructions. (of cos the good maids learn well, therein lies the difference).
just want to say i empathise with your situation and dilemma, and wish u all the best.

I hope u can really think it through before u make any decision. I am against abortion because of alot of reason.. But no matter for what reason it is, I really hope u won't choose this route. I went through one abortion and it still haunts me now.. I would go hay wire whenever I thought of my lost child.
Before you make any decision, pls take some time out and read what this webby have for you. For the sake of your health, ur baby and whoever involve.. Pls spend some time to read it through before any decision is made.. Dun make any decision that u will regret in the future..

hi crystal
just like to drop you a word of encouragement. though i'm not a christian, i find the following words very beautiful and like to share with you.
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
*Hugs*

Hi Crystal,
Congrats!!!
The baby might be sudden and early BUT no matter what I personally feels its still a life. Its Fate that the baby came.
Give your baby a chance be it boy or girl, be it 10 months or 10 years gap. As long the baby can be healthy with a chance to live, why not leave it to fate.
I believe too finanically your family can afford to support this baby, just arrange the timing.
Do consider about it~
We are here as friends to support you if you need someone to talk to. Dont move too heavy things now, rest well and relax.

Hi Crystal,
Congratulations! Don't worry too much, I believe you will make the decision that is right for you and your family. To me, the most important thing is that when you have decided which path to take, you should be happy with your decision. The hardships you mentioned are difficult but not impossible to overcome. I for one never did any confinement since I don't believe in it. You know my hubby is ang moh right and his mum plus the many ang moh old ladies I know seem to be pretty healthy to me and they never even heard of "confinement". In the US, it's a luxury to have help after giving birth and most mums there are used to doing things themselves during pregnancy and after giving birth. Even in Singapore, I was washing my own bottles and pump, doing laundry, carrying my dd soon after delivery. It's all in your mentality. Of cos if you feel that confinement is important and you need help to look after 2 kids, you can definitely get help. Perseverance can change many things, including getting your hubby to help out more. However if you decide not to go through with the pregnancy, I'm sure many good things will come out of that as well, like Cheryl will get more attention from you etc. So whichever you choose, you must be happy with it yah

Crystal,
Congrats! It's a blessing!!! Take care..don't think to much. Be happy all the time...
Goodbb,
Dr Terence tan is good as per my experience. His expertise is respitory problems. But he is very crowded. Usually I need to wait for 3-4hours. It's not convenient for bb to wait that long. Therefore, I'm going to Allison Tan at rivervale mal for the first consultation. If the coughing persists after two visits..then i go to terence tan.

Crystal,
wow! You are a very strong woman! Dinno you went thro so much during your confinement. Tot mine was bad but yours is ten times mine manz! Glad that its all over.
Its believed that if you din do your confinement properly for the first pregnancy you can compensate back with the second one. So mayb this is the chance for you to ' bu ' back.
You are rite in saying when you made a decision, you will be happier. My hubby always tell me this " A decision you made at anytime is the best at that point of time, given the info n environment that you have. So once made, dun haf to look back." Juz wanna let you know... watever decision you made, we will still be around for you ok? Cheers!
If needed, you can put Cheryl at my place for babysitting ok? At least we are staying around the same area.

hi crystal
Lele and zac zac is 18mths apart. its not easy to have children with close age gap but remember jsut have to bear for the first 6mths difficult period, when you see the two of them playing together, you will feel that its all worthwhile. Then again, i am not in your position i will not be able to understand the pressure and problem you are facing. Sometime you must believe the will power of mummy is very strong that it will surprise you. I didnt have confinement after deliver lele, latching lele and feeding zac zac at the same time is a common sight. there are points of breaking down but now half year has passed and i have totally forgotten all the hardship. But if you asked me if i want another baby it will be a no no cos i know i cant find caregiver and my mum is old. Whatever decision you made, be strong to face it and move on with life. Other people opinion is not as important as what you and your hubby thinks. be honest to yourself and listen to your heart.
abc
hmm i think lele's health is not worse than zac zac but becos of zac zac, she fall sick more often as compare to zac zac. zac zac was never sick in his first 18mths but now lele only 6mths already sick twice all thanks to her gor gor. guess if you 2 kiddos, the chances of passing viruses to each other increase too.

Mummylian,
Family of 4 children sure brings lots of joy to your family hor.. i grew up in a family of 3 kids including myself, keeping telling my mum how nice it would be if we have another sibling.
For myself, personally i wan more than 1 kid, coz growing up with slbings brings lot of joy to my childhood. Coz my elder brother is only 1 yr older than me, i was the tomboy who is always following him to play soccer, baseball, basketball when we were young. For keira, i hope she can have other slbings to share thoughts and to grow up with too!

Yesterday my mum aka caregiver for my dear keira when i am working told me that if i have another child now, she will run away coz my keira is too hyperactive for her to handle. Guess if i wanna have another child, i must plan properly in the way i can work from home for some days so that is not so taxing on my mum.
Any mummies registered for this? Closing date is TDY.

Spend abt $300. $120 for well women screening which includes breast examination, pap smear, weight, urine test etc... $170 for insertion of IUCD. $10 for consultation and medication. Very fast and painless. Maybe a bit uncomfortable during insertion but once over i dun feel tat i have even gone thru the insertion.

Oh.. thought I should highlight this phone scam call I received last Thursday morning as you may have family/friends with older kids.
My home phone rang and ds2 rang to answer the call. He spoke to the caller for at least 30 secs before I took over. I heard a boy crying. He sounded very much like my Sec 1 nephew and he was sobbing. I concluded it's not my nephew since my nephew speaks to me in English and there's no way he will call me instead of his mother, what's more my home phone.
The conversation was all in Mandarin and he was crying throughout except for the last part.
Boy: Ma-ma
Me: Who's this?
Boy: Ma-ma
Me: Who's this?
Boy: I got beaten up by someone outside
Me: Huh? Who are you?
Boy: Ma-ma... don't you recognise my voice?
Me: Who are you?
Boy: It's me, you don't recognise my voice?
Me: I think you've got the wrong number.
Boy: **Silence for a few secs before he hung up**
Immediately I sms-ed my sis and she called home to check, my nephew is at home so confirm it's not him.
I think it came out in the newspaper of Friday, there's a phone scam going on now. If you have identified the boy as your son, you'll prob ask why he got beaten and after that, someone else will take over the phone to demand for $$.
I warned my other sis and she told me her neighbour rec'd a similar call 2 weeks ago. She played along with them as she has only 2 girls and no son!
So, pls be wary when you receive such phone calls. I guess their target is at sahms. If you humtam any tom, dick or harry name, and they say yes, you've prob hit the nail on the head that it's a scam.
