Thanks mummies, for your bday wishes. Hehe.
Spent the whole day at my mum's place ytd with the 3 kids, but was ok. Took half day leave for the 3 kids on Sat to go ktv and supper. Haha. Hb planned a surprise bday celebration with my sec sch friends. MIL and FIL took care of the 3 kids after 7.30pm till we got home. So sunday was for my MIL to relax.
Sandy, hope you're feeling better. I used to think of dying when i was in school and didn't feel good abt anything. But now, cos of the kids, i feel tt my life is more precious. There was also once i left the twins in my mum's place and my mum called me and was crying till she couldnt speak properly cos she quarrelled with my stepfather. Started cos she was busy making sushi while my stepfather was taking care of the kids and he got angry cos he felt she shouldnt be doing all those kinda stuff when the kids were climbing around the house. (which i thought was true la. haha.) I was quite angry cos that wasn't the first time i told her to just packet food and not make herself so busy when the twins are at her place. But i knew she wasn't obligated to take care of my kids cos they're MY kids ma. (even though my grandma was the one who took care of me when i was young, right till i went to UK to study)
And ya, like yenny said, things will get better. That's what i always tell myself, and my friends. And i'm sure Benjamin will understand the sacrifices uve made to take care of him and will love u much much much. haha.
And there are still so many things to experience with Benjamin (like signing his excursion consent form (i was really quite excited when i first signed that for my twins. haha), order his class photos for him), so must take care of your self ya.
Anyway, i met lala in the MRT just now. Went for interview at this job agency, and met her on the way back. haha. So qiao3. also heard from her tt the KM trial was good. looking forward to the trial in april. Think will also enrol the twins for a trial class. haha. excited sia~!

Z-lia,
Your HB so sweet. My HB no present, no suprise, no present and only a greeting "Happy Birthday"
He will give excuses like busy or I SUPER glue to him so no chance to buy. Well, that is him who ask me choose him. A man that don't know when to open his golden mouth to talk and no initative. lol

PM, Zlia,
Zlia, I forgot to wish you just now in the train ... good to see you
YB,
I also noticed that Charisse enjoyed herself but not too sure whether should sign up or not coz Tanglin Mall is very out of the way.

Sandy,
i'm sorry to hear what happened. Like what we learn in Bnc, be positive n our bb will learn to be positive. Don't show any negativity to your bb as they can always pick up distress signals from parents esp their Mothers and it does affect them!!! Never never think of suicide again no matter how dire the situation may be. Always remember that little Benjamin needs you the most and for his sake, you must stay strong! I've went through the depression state after giving birth to Cait n drove crazy by the confinement nanny. But i chose not to let emotions cloud my judgement to make rational decisions. I end up ignoring the nanny throughout her stay her. TOld hb to send her back since i don't need her but cus its being paid by my MIL, dun want to upset her unnecessarily... well at my expense but i learnt to deal with it. i personally believe that bb r our responsibility so shld not expect others to help whether they mean it or not. For some of us, we were passed on from our parents to grandparents to look after... what makes them experienced enough to look after our bb??? haha that's what i think so never have expectations so you wont get disappointments
Sandy girl, you are young, learn how to control your temper... don't say things our of anger, controlling your anger will very much control the situation n a better marriage. Men don't take hints, sometimes you need to tell them right in their faces!
wow wee... long lecture... always remember the 3 Cs... Cool, Calm n Collected!
God Bless

May,
U can get a list of contractors from HDB..Think it's more reliable if it's HDB certified..Kaylyn crawls everywhere nowadays..from living rm to study, bedroom & even to the kitchen. Even though there's a step down to the kitchen, she still managed to cross the hurdle...but will get knocks here & there too when she's careless...thinking of closing all the bedroom doors to keep her out...Then kitchen sliding door also need to close liao.
Hi Z-lia,
Ur hb so nice...Last yr valentine's day, hb said he need to entertain customer, so can't celebrate. Then tis yr wedding anniversary, he's out of town...luckily I'm not too particular abt anniversaries, as long as I'm being treated well EVERYDAY!
Lala,
Yah, I also feel Tanglin Mall is very out of the way...but I believe music is good for developing babies..oh well, will wait for tumbletots trial in Apr before deciding...Most probably will start lesson only when Kaylyn can walk.

Sorry Sandy, but I going to be direct and say this. Whatever you are doing, pls 1st think of you baby. You are not longer alone and there is a responsibilities as a mother regardless if anyone (that includes your HB) if helping you or not. Do not compare to last time generation if your grandmother is the one bringing you up. Times have change and we have to adapt.
Taking away your own life do not help in anything at all. What you need to do now is work our your priorities in life. Communicate and discuss a plan with your husband and mother to work out a schedule (and STICK to it), so that you can take care of baby, work and studies all at the same time. It is difficult, but it can be done.
If this is a good place to vent your anger, vent it her, discuss your problems here with us and talk it out instead. We are all here listening and giving advice if need be.
If you do need me to talk to you husband to try work things out abit, pls let me know.

Agree wholeheartedly with what you say, esp about loving oneself. Sometimes that isn't as easy as it sounds but it works.... You're very fortunate to stay on Old Airport Road. That's a great location. Close to the city, beach and the hawker centre has the best hokkien mee and oyster omelette. ;-)

Thanks Liverpool for your offer to speak to my HB, but I think is useless. Because I speak to him face to face or e-mail, he just keep quiet and continue with his labtop.
Sometime he must push me to the extreme then he realise some thing wrong. I knew I already somewhere near depression during confinement because of nasty remark and sacrastic SIL. I tell my HB but he only say all the remark is for my own good.
Imagine u are trying hard to express milk and there your mother say your milk nt nutritious. Here u are trying to eat but everyday same food for 3 meal and restricted diet.
When trying to learn to take care of BB, my mother will stand there and say aiya your hand like leg ( translate to hokkien). Very demoralising.
I can pass my ACCA paper in the December sitting all because I have maternity leave which taken separatly. I stay in shop to study and weekend one hand push the stroller to let my BB sleep another hand writing notes.
I don't have all the support from my family at all. Complain or voice out will only bring more scolding. I think anyone here will also be like me.
Suppress and control until one day just a spark and it trigger it off...

MTDT - U so funny, for me its the opp i kind psycho-ing hb to put instead of the other way round.
Z-lia - Yr hubby is so sweet. Me and hubby quarrelled at the entrance of GV Vivocity until the show we initially wanted to watch were sold out. And then halfway thru the later show, granny bombed my phone to summone me back. But ok lah.. i think i appreciate his effort in celebrating for me and buying me present. Thou I think still think he shld tolerate my nonsense abit since its MY DAY! Hahaha...
Sandy - Same here, I got the same kind of remarks when I BF-ing Emerson...but I just ignore loh. I also get very restricted diet and SAME food.. until i go buy char siew rice and coke to eat n drink! Yah, i quite pan ni one.
Depression/Anxiety.. haiz.... After going many rounds of it i think I slowly grew out of it. Each time, the duration is shorter and shorter (which is a good thing) and I come to learn.. its all in the mind. When u think its there's no other way oout, u feel desperate.. Each issue or problem has its way to solve it. Get yr hubby involved - use the softer approach, I got a feeling they dun like yr hard-self... He still loves you and definitely cant bear to see u suffer in this manner.
Every time I quarel with HB or get depressed I cry my heart and lungs out, my hb actually quite heartache to see me like that, and he'll do his best (BUT TEMPORARY ONLY) to help me out...although temp only but I still think its good enuff..
Its good that ure typing out ur woes here.. at least we're here to listen.

(actually, i do complain la, just not to him. wahahahahaha.)
PM, i duno why, i think im super da4 nu3 ren2. i can't bring myself to cry in front of hb. even when i gave birth to the twins, i had to try to hard not to let my tears fall. then he asked me if i was crying and i still said no. haha.
