lyn,

good to know that you are doing well for your current pregnancy

pls dun strain yourself by doing housework or carrying A.. must take good care of yourself hor, especially now that you are carrying twins

juz to share with you.. there was one night i carried my gal and climbed stairs, the next morning i went into pre-term labour and my #2 popped at 33+wks. my gynae said my placenta had started to separate from the uterus wall and it was either due to trauma suffered or over straining myself. made me feel so guilty for putting my #2 thru all this, luckily everything turned out well...

 

[cookiemz]

paula/cutiezayn/wen/spicegal,

your orders have just been sent out from Ralph Lauren, i will send u an email on the payment details when VPost bills me for shipping (in a week's time). the items will likely reach singapore in a couple of weeks and we will arrange for the collection/mailing out then ok?

 

[wwsk06]

Lyn,
You have 2 in you...so must be starting to feel it. Are they identical or fraternal twins? Thinking for names already? You are doing great with A. I saw the way you were with him on that outing to botanical garden, very patient and engaging.

SM
Agree with your point on school vs sm itself. With May, after a couple of emails back and forth, she finally called me. She said she is very busy so need to bug her to get her attention. Maybe try and email her again and leave her your phone number.

MTDT
So you have started with meditation already. I am not so sure about it....Maybe will give it a try next week since today is my last day at work.

Skipping naps
G has been skipping her afternoon nap. By the time I got home, she would be very sleepy already. It had happened twice just in last week. Last night, she slept at 7.30pm. Woke up at 3am asking me to carry her around. I ignored her request and told her to sleep. After some crying, she finally come to terms with the fact that I would not carry her...mumbling about Waigong sleeping, Waipo sleeping, moon and stars out bla bla....took a while for us to finally got back to sleep. Today quite tired...Is it a passing phase , I mean, not napping?

 

[wwsk06]

cookiemz,

Thank you!

Will lookout for email.

lyn,

ya its a norm to hire a maid the moment most people have no.2. I was accused by cousins and aunts for "torturing" my boss when I dun wanna hire a maid. I mean it was an option for her if she really cant cope but she insisted on not having one. We also did our best to help outside of office hours. And we do insist on night parenting since their birth. The children had never once sleep anywhere else except by our side. Not with grandparents, etc.

Hey just concentrate on good things.... u r going to have twins leh!!! How fun it will be ... not many people have twins lah so gotta treasure the double joy you had been granted

And then A will have 2 lovely siblings to play hide and seek with. I wish my hb wanna by a father of 5 too but no... I think 3 should be the limit liao.... I wish I can have that many children and cope.... hehee

 

[angeg]

pawprint

sunflower

u got dal's number? coz i drop my hp & now can't switch on..she mention abt going to noddy today..scare she looking 4 me...can anyone help me sms her & let her koe i not going?

 

[jiajia_pauline]

By the way, any idea if there are still vacancies for JG weekend playclub in the new term? I'm a little disappointed with the relief teacher's class management skills and this term alone, i have attended three lessons conducted by relief teachers liao.

 

[steffi]

joyfulmom
nowadays HX takes 1 nap only, on weekdays...nap time is from 1 plus to 3/4 plus......On weekends, she can survive without any nap at all...the bad thing is, even without naps, she can be so cranky and manja and just refused to sleep till her usual sleeping time of 9 to 10 plus at night....

Lyn
Haf u gone for scanning already? Will A have didis , meimeis or both?

 

[slee75]

Hi everyone.

Dor, enjoyself in Sydney.

Lyn, hope you're coping well. You need alot of rest and eat well and stay happy always.

kk, flying off next mon yah? enjoy yr holiday and post yr pics here when back k?

 

[happysunflower]

cookiemz,
I am also very scared of pre-term labour. Sometimes I feel my tummy tightening, then gotta slow down.


Wen,
Sometimes when I get very tired, my subconscious mind plays the major part in my actions

and lost my temper. Really gotta cool down to get my mind back.
They are fraternal. Will be going for detailed scan 3 weeks later. By then, will know the gender. Just saw my gynae last Monday and he's too busy to scan for me, I think. He just made sure they are the same size and got heartbeat.
A naps once a day lately. Then he will sleep at 8pm. If he naps twice a day, he will only get tired after 10pm.


poohy,
I think that's the norm. Have you met people who have more than 2 and do not hire maid? How do they cope? I wanna learn from them...

Sometimes when I have negative thoughts, I felt guilty for the twins too. After that, I will apologise to them. Hopefully that will help.


steffi,
Dunno the gender yet...

Serene,
Thank you

Will try to...

 

[steffi]

Lyn
wah! A sleeps at 8 pm every nite?.....good for you........what time does he take his nap?

i seem to have a hard time getting HX to sleep...sigh...every nite, she will want her barney, hi-5 shows...then after the show, she will roll all over the bed before she finally sleep....sometimes can take up to 45mins.

 

[kerenelu]

serene,

Yeh! Flying off on Mon, that's rite

Ok sure will post up my pics.. Hope camera dun break down hahahaaha! That's my main worry

Steffi,

Same for YJ.. roll and roll on bed before falling asleep, but she normally knock out between 9 pm and 10 pm

 

[kerenelu]

Dropping by to say HI!

I loved my 1st visit to Changi Airport T3!

 

[steffi]

[mspiggy]

<font face="tahoma">kk,

[kerenelu]

steffi and mspiggy,

heehee.. ya, she always seems taller than those her age or 2-3 mths older than her. Maybe her piggy dad's genes lor.. celeste going to vomit liao haha!

 

[mother_of_a_princess]

hello mummies,

me long time never log in to this thread liao....

Lyn,

u got to hang in there..taking care of 1 toddler plus 2 nb is really not easy..... me too almost went crazy... there is once i was still doin confinement and my hubby got to go oversea to work and left me alone handle my 3 gals,i almost got depression that time ....but got to ren.....

Poohy,
how are you?? planing for a #3

 

[poohy]

kk,

ya YJ looks different now... but still chubby and sweet

tall... but i think my ah girl also tall... my mum say she looks like she is 2 year old liao... but my SIL's twins same age as her both taller! maybe they got tall genes... last time S also looks taller and bigger size for his age group... almost like ah moh size when I brought him to playnest.

MO3P,

ya, planning..

It can be anytime from now but a little hiccups at work.. sigh if I were to go on maternity leave again within the next 1 year, I think it will impact my promotion route lor. So I wonder whether I should just wait another year... serious competition at work. u know at times u may not seriously hanker after a promotion but I had been in this same position for the last 5 years if i still dun move up, external pressure is too strong.

 

[slee75]

kk,
Pretty YJ. T3 open already?

MO3P,
Long time no see. Really pei fu you, so capable, take care of 3 princess yourself.

 

[kerenelu]

[snail05]

afternoon

yeah bo lang.. wheres every1??

so happy... ethan finally got into JG.. sat 2pm at evans road.. any1 at this timing?

celeste
Chelsia did very well even though she seldom joins such classes.. you should continue to let her go for it..

hmm.. ethan on the other hand doesn't seem to really like the class compared to other schools.. not too sure whether it is the teacher cos i saw that he responds better during the makeup class conducted by another teacher..

 

[celk]

Peng...

Future Trials etc... i really have to think twice! haha....

Sure got pple will scold me for my above sentence..

 

[mspiggy]

<font face="tahoma">Peng,
Initially Wes was at 2pm Evans, but I've changed to 1130am. Thought timing better fit his nap time. Else they can be classmates again!

Wes is also blur blur in class.</font>
