- Start date
Hahahaa..hong, I actually thought of having 3 kids leh! But after 2nd one, my dh seems like havin 2nd thots. Cos currently we seem to have our hands full. He takes care of Clarisse and I take care of Keryn. Worst of all, one by one starting from Clarisse who got the flu from cc, we are beginning to get sick. My dh is already down with flu and my throat starts to get itchy. We are getting more short-fused cos of lack of good rest.
Anyway my dh likes to use this excuse saying wait till we strike toto first but we seldom buy, how to strike? So instead of keep thinking of planning for #3 when time is ripe, maybe I should brainwash myself to stop at #2 too.
Carrie, does Cody have diarrhoea? I heard teething can cause that too. It must be hard on you to juggle work and taking care of cranky bb. At least I am on maternity leave so dun have to think abt work.

hong,
i did not apply any teething gel for cody, used the chinese medicinal powder for coen so did the same for cody, i do not think it is molar.. by then, i will have a worse period? :'(
salute you for wanting to have 3rd kid, my hubby would like to have a daughter but i violently object.. there is no guarantee, i have to go through the pregnancy and delivery again, endure more nonsense from him and my ILs, still working full time, tighter finances, bla bla bla.. no way i will make his dream come true!
meeyah,
last few days no diarrhoea for cody but today he poos a few times and quite watery so i reckon this is due to his teething too..
you take care and get well soon.. take some herbal tea if you can as the weather is terribly hot..

She has 12 children,
my mum's the 2nd child, the eldest daughter.
During my grandma & mum's time,
the men don't stay at home,
either working or out with friends.

Leng Leng... I take my hat off the older folks but we cannot deny that these days kids are harder to manage. Even my in-laws and parents said that. My mum was a houswife and had to take care of 3 kids on her own plus all the housework. I asked her how she managed. She said thatthe kids then a bit more "gong" so can sit and meddle with the same toys for hours. But she noticed that with Matty and Elaina, they can't and need to have constant interaction with adults.

Odie,
isn't it great that our kids are smarter?
That's what comes out of the supplement we take when pregnant,
the AA, DHA, etc. etc...

LengLeng,
Sounds like at least u r goin to have half a dozen? *lol
Odie,
Absolutely agree that kids from our generation r so smart. Last time one parent can handle 4 kids. But now it's 4 caretakers struggling with 1 kid.
Next time, I will tell my kids pls dun pass down their children for me to take care.
hong,
Wow... 10! I always tot my grandma who had 7 children is quite a record holder. I am so SK.

odie,
i have started looking and will change if a better offer comes by.. then again, i was wondering if it is a good time now as i need to serve 2 months' termination notice, by the time i accept the offer and served notice, it might be near december and i will not get any of the AWS after slogging for the year..
first time in my career life to be under such an absurd boss.. :'(

Carrie, if you can tahan till you get the AWS, why not..cos even if you quit now u still gotta tahan for another 2 mths leh. On top of that, you may or may not found a job when you serve your 2 mth notice. Maybe find a job first then you quit. Save all your leave to serve your notice lor. I have one colleague very shiok used his mth that is equivalent to 1 mth to serve his 1 mth notice..
But then if it is really really very bad cannot endure for another day that feeling, no choice lor go and throw letter with no hesitation!

Carrie,
Oh dear, must take very good care of yourself. Did u try to tok to your new boss? If she's still so unreasonable & u r so drained... then dun wait anymore. My tot is there are also a lot of ppl waiting to tender once they get their yr end bonus, so finding a job could be very challenging.
Mommies,
The ball is rolling for P1 registeration! Omg, my choice sch needs to ballot even though it's at phase 2B. *cold sweat
