Milderina, I think your colleagues are really out of this world, so just ignore. Pple are usually very nice to pregnant ladies and always saying nice things, only those insensitive and silly colleagues of yours! They must be either old aunties or guys, like what Aqua presumed.

Sherl,
well i will try not to think la.

"its a boy or its a girl?" "i guess it must b a girl". I was thinking i didnt even ask u to guess. non of your business right? its my baby! i mean in forums we discuss abt the symtoms all this its fine lor, but i dun like ppl gossiping there like tat.

Milderina,
I get more sensitive when it's my inlaws talking about it, I also dunnoe why. And my inlaws quite anxious, they been asking me since they found out I was preggy, but they try to just ask casually la. But recently I'm beginning to feel quite pressured because I think my MIL wants a boy, since she already has a granddaughter.

sherl,
now i understand y u are so anxious when u are unable to know baby's gender. actually hor these ppl really give us peer pressure. especially i feel now we are the most vulnerable and can b hit by the lightest comments or remarks. I really dun mind if my baby is boy or girl, as long as baby is fine, healthy and normal. Thats all i ask for.

Milderina,
Sometimes I think it's also myself giving myself pressure lor, actually when I think about it I really dun mind boy or girl, but I let external pressure get to me very easily. My hubby always scold me for giving myself pressure.
Sometimes people around you can be quite insensitive, they will ask you whether it's a boy or girl, whether you prefer a boy or girl, or even worse, they will tell you whether they prefer a boy or girl (like it's really any of their business, like you say). Like my inlaws sometimes will hold a casual conversation about the sex of my baby, I know that they will love the child regardless of what sex the baby is la, and they dun mean any harm or pressure, but I cannot help but take it the negative way sometimes.

Sherl,
trust mi, i entirely understand how u feel. Cos i am also someone who will take external pressures easily too as I am quite a pantang person. when ppl say something then i will feel uncomfortable and stuff like tat thus giving myself unneccessary stress and being negative. We just cant help it. Especially now its our child we are talking abt. We will definitely be more sensitive and wan to protect our child.

Hey, ask u MTBs something - do u all take public transport home? What happens when the trains or buses get too packed? U girls worried? I mean, Singaporeans are still basically very uncivilised. Even when taking the lft, some knuckleheads can just head straight into the lift w/o holding the lift door for me, and sometimes, the door nearly shuts on me. That's when I just do a very loud 'TSK' at them. So terrible, right?!

bluesky still young la, we r only as old as how our heart feels. look at Fei Xiang!! hahahah. i m 28 w one ten mth old bb and i already feel 35.............
fwahhh the thread moved soooooooo fast today, 2 pages!
sherl, inlaws can become the most irritating people when it comes to grandchildren. and it doesnt stop at the birth of our bb.
my bleh mil who is a nurse, insisted on going to my 1st visit at d gynae when i was expecting chloe... when it was only one little bean on d ultrascan she started screaming 'thats my grandson! thats my grandson! u must call J (my hb) to tell him we saw his son today'. even my gynae got very irritated and spoke up for me, thats it was too nearly to tell gender (i was only 5 weeks preg then). she replied 'oh i dun need another granddaughter i oredi have 2.......'

hi gals
i am more active in the feb thread cos due in 4 Feb 07. But becos i expecting triplets, most likely will have to deliver them in mid Jan 07.
my family is not particular about boys or gals. As long as babies are healthy, we are more than happy.
When we knew that i expecting triplets, my hubby commented jokingly that wat if all three are gals?? Isn't it going to be very noisy cos gals talk soooo much. haha... i replied him that better than all three boys right?? cos they have to spend 2 years doing NS and so will take longer to bring money home.
Just joking, a mixture of boys and gals will be the best, if not we are fine with all boys or all gals.

Morning gals!
Kekekekeke.... woke up in a better mood today... but today hubby got to go IPPT, then gave me a choice of reaching office at 6.45 or going to work by myself, so of course I chose the second option lor...
Wah lau, there I was in my babydoll top and reading "What to Expect When You Are Expecting" and standing in front of the disabled seat, and nobody wants to offer me seat lor. Maybe they still speculating whether I'm pregnant or just plain fat? Kekekekekeke
On the way to work got heavy thunderstorm, whenever thunder scares me I auto soothe my belly and tell baby not to be scared, but actually I think I was more scared than baby...
dressaholic,
*pengz* Your MIL number one leh! Kekekekekeke... If mine like that dunnoe what I'll do leh... My experience with MIL is:
Granddaughter: "Ah ma, you prefer boy or girl? I hope it's a girl!"
MIL: "Me ah? Aiyah, I want a b.... (pause) Aiyah, better dun say, boy or girl also good la hor, hahaha."
