geberra
u must admit got slight improvement better than none at all...hehehehe...give her some credit lah..at least she TRY..hehhehe..dun think my MIL will want the op loh...
 


hong, u mz ignore what they say abt irresponsible parents, only bring kids home during wkends... my elder sis used to be wkend parent until she moved near my parents... but we understand why she does that... especially when she work late... even now she bring kids home at nite, my mum would encourage her to leave it under my mum's care cos she still need to work the next day...

dsiitan, i agree with gebbera, really need to take care & control diet... my colli father oso same case... diabetic patient... got so worse that he need to cut off his leg... then her mum taking care of his dad.... poor thing... died of sudden heart attack...
 
oops.. is Gebbera MIL...
Wahaha what a mistake. I haven wake up yet.
Desiitan,
My HB is very nice guy but he very sotong and slow when ask to do this type of admin thing. He also a bit Cock Eyes. Things infront of him, he cannot see.. Got once i waited for him at the bus stop. I saw him alighted and thought he saw me liao so i walk side by side with him. He never notice me at all until I poke him. Lol
My mother always tease me say because he "COCK Eyes" that why he marrys me.. DUH
 
eeyore,
thanks.. not alot of pple understand that. We did want to bring back our kids but ILs keep asking us to place the child with them.

I am glad the help is there.

dsiitan,
only recent yr we realised my dad side have many cases of diabetic patient. My mum asking us to be very careful. Incase we inherit from them...
 
sandy
hahaha...u so cute manz...man mah...all like that one lah..me oso leh...cant search ppl among groups...cant see one...hahhaa
 
sandy,
hahaha... you got mixed up liao. it's my MIL. you think she really over-concern for me meh? it's her son that she concern loh... you know something? last time she ever questioned me if i got help out in household chores or not. she even sort of scolded me better not throw everything to her son to do... See, so biase right? that was the first conflict i had with her and till now, i'm still very angry over it whenever i think of it. at that time, i wanted very much to tell her which eyes of her saw that i didnt do household chores but too bad loh cos i dun really know how to speak hokkien so just kept quiet loh.... luckily hubby helped me and sort of tell her off... after that we went home and i cried like mad....

there is one sentence which i truely agreed loh... xiang jian rong yi, xiang chu NAN.... if you want to maintain a good relationship with your PILs, it's better to stay (residential) far away from them loh. one at 'tong', the other at 'xi'.

For admission only:
1) Doc pre admission letter
2) Ur Gynae receipt - one receipt with amt more than $450 will do. they will Photocopy to submit to medisave for claim
3) NRIC for both u and ur hb.

So every morning i will take bus go boon lay interchange, then take mrt to tiong bahru to meet my manager cos she is driving to work.. so gg hm also same.. give me a lift to mrt then i take mrt and bus back hm.. so if future i take care of bb on my own, i will stop at queenstown station to pass my mum and pick up my bb ... but dunno steady bo.. gotta wait till i start work again then c how ...
 
sandy, my hb oso only son... so his mum like always think he's not big enough, give us this & that, recently even give us mouldy stuff... so I normally keep quiet during their family gathering, sometimes my SIL also very mean... talk back to me, being very sarcastic... then i always complain when their not around... then my hb would like eerrr what shld he do??
 
tanfenfen, our EDD is the same, and somemore delivering at the same hospital. Your chinese name when translated from tanfenfen, is only a word different from my chinese name.
 
aiyo..lucky my MIL has 9sons...hahaha..my hubby youngest..she bochap liao..too many..i got 4 SIL...but so far so gd...no conflicts...hmm...
 
ya loh...9 sons and 4 daughters..hahaha...
so too many kids to boss ard or protect ..haha..so behind one all bochap...hehehe....even ROM..MIL saw me the 1st time..also the time she knew her son getting married..hahaha...then saw me less than 6 times...i suddenly become her DIL..hehhee
 
MTDT,
dont think i will do BC at TMC cos we havent choose a chinese name for bb yet. only after birth, then will bring bb "ba zhi" to shifu for the name choosing. heard the duration for BC registration is 2 weeks, right? So since i'm not doing BC at hospital, does that means i dun have to bring ROM cert and bank book?

i havent receive doc pre-admission letter leh.... when did you receive that?
 
jasline, so u must b excited now.. waiting for bb to pop.. yday was feeling cramp... dunno if its a symptom of bb coming out earlier..
 
eeyore,
That's a very comprehensive list of items to bring! Mt A not providing the sanitary pads anymore? any idea what're the free gifts? Last time, they gave bath tub.

re: weekend parents
I was a weekend mother for half year for my first one. My mum looks after her but i would go and visit her every weekday night (except thurs - that's the mopping and cleaning house night). It's very tiring making the trips so was very glad when she finally reached 18 months and I put her in childcare. Thank God she can settle down easily in childcare.

re: weight gain
i gained 1.5kg in a week! baby put on 400g. my gynae was saying that a gain of 0.2 to 1 kg in a week is normal. oops!

jurong gal,
we're seeing the same gynae! thought you staying in jurong. his clinic is at tpy, isn't it far?

fruitee,
congrats! no wonder there're no sounds from you these few days!
 
dsiitan, wah...your MIL got 13 kids. A lot leh. I 1 or 2 child enough liow. My DH is the 2nd son, my MIL got 3 sons. As my bb is the first grandson, I think my PIL are quite kan cheong. I also scare got conflict with my MIL when our thinking is different, though we don't stay together.
 
eeyore - yup, i know...just wondering if MIL will be the same coz most of my friends who's DH is the only son has "see beh cham" MILs.
sad.gif
So, just wondering lor.

dsiitan - wow, I wish my MIL is bochap like yours though....
 
fenfen, I more scare than excited. Did your gynae put you on ctg to find out whether the cramps are contractions?
 
jasline
last time no entertainment mah..all sleep early..hahahaha.....so suddenly pop out so mnay loh

japepearl
hahaha...bochap cos we not staying with her or near her..and she not mobile anymore...if hor stay with her...aiyo..that one can die..cos she is a very difficlt person to stay with..even her sons or daughters cant stand her...her mum will nag non stop and hor..cant watch tv..so when sunday got gd shows..either i stay home or go back early..cos cant watch at her place mah...only she can watch her teochew opera...
 
cham..me havent take morning nap...aiyo...no wonder so blurz...hahaha...got to fetch my boy from sch in another 45mins time..haiz...

geberra
think hor..cannot skip afternoon nap liao..hahaha..yesterday nite 10 plus 11..me knock out liao..hahaha
 
japepearl, ya, I agree, once got conflict, very hard. I hope during the confinement period won't have conflict. I engage a confinement lady to help me during my confinement, but my MIL says she will drop by to coach the confinement lady. *faint*. Like that sure have conflicts one. I will try to ren as I also don't want my DH to be in a difficult position. I think have to paste a "ren" word on the wall to remind myself everyday. hahaha.
 
jasline
tot CL must be quite experienced??? y still need to coach??? dun understand...think hor they just want to drop by to give comments and see bb lah
 
Gebbera,
Yah u no need to bring these 2 items. But must bring your IC..
Eeyore,
my SIL in fact her whole family thought talk louder win. To me , they are just unreasonable. I normally just keep quiet or use my facial expression to show my disagreement. No need to talk much cos if they are sensible enough they will think. I think for their case is, they never think b4 they talk.
 
Jas - I got that word in my room liao when they first moved it. Anyway, since we are one duck and one chicken (they speak teochew only and I am hopeless in it), we seldom communicate. How to since I know only a few sentences...but I do ensure that I am filial piety.
 
dsiitan, hahaha. wah...luckily now got a lot of entertainment and things to do. Cannot imagine having so many kids. Ya lor...I am also thinking that CL must be experienced one, but she says want to come over to tell her what to do...then I cannot tell her don't come...alamak...scarly, end up the CL and my MIL got conflict, then I cham. And she even want to buy the herbs to coach the CL.
 


daisyduck,
the items that hospital give is what I heard from my colli that delivered early this year... i even heard the bathtub is actually in the bill... i think pampers & toiletries is the only free gift bah..

jadepearl,
sorry i thot u were asking abt the diff... yalor... i believe only son all have the same problem...

Geb,
dun worry, ur edd is 2 days earlier than mine... I'll b getting mine this sat... so u shld b getting urs during ur next visit...

Talking abt confinement:
My MIL so scared that we never prepare, already arrange for us... althou we know wat to do never tell her... she oso never ask us, until she arrange everything... she say wkday my mum cook for me, then wkend she cook for me... aiyo... wat to do...
