Mommies, out of curiosity (and also boredom at work
), are most of the mommies here in late 20s early 30s? I know got 1 young gal gal... Snow is it?
hahaha... ashley mom, talking about working till the very last day, my hubby was just asking me what will happen if I go into labour in the office - does he have to come to my office to fetch me, or can he wait for me at hospital. Should we put the hospital bag in the car, or leave it by the door at home. Kekekekekekekekekekeke

Ashleymom, I am in late 20s.
Sherl, u mean if we were to take MC/hospi leave (as issued by gynae) or take our own AL, HR will still count it as start of ML even tho' we've not popped yet? My gynae already planning to issue me bedrest by my 30th week, so there's a chance that HR will start counting ML then?

Sherl - Even if go into labour, still got time to wait for hubby to fetch you from work. Before my 1st one, I also thought the whole process will be very dramatic, like what we see on TV
You know go into labour pains, and very painful type. Then everyone starts to panic, ambulance come... But no lah, the pain will not come all at once. Also there are different symptoms eg. waterbag burst, show (ie. blood). For me, it was a show at midnight at home. I called gynae, took a shower before left for hospital. In fact gynae was asking whether I wanna check in in the morning since it's only the very beginning of labour. But being 1st time parents, we both kan cheong so went hospital immediately rather than wait. in the end, I just slept in hospital and gynae came and check on me at 7am. See, undramatic

No lah, I ask about the age also coz I'm trying to put a face to the name when I address whoever. Yesterday when went to Serrich place, we saw a pregnant lady and hubby kept asking "is it her is it her?" And I'm like 'how I know? Never see before also.."
And also thinking if in the same year, we may have been in the same school before . No lah, just being boliao...
Ashley mom,
I'm in my mid 20s.
Alethea,
depends la, I think. Some moms start ML earlier, as per some arrangement with their mgmt, like for e.g. their ML starts the week of their EDD.
I know that for my company ML gotta start latest by the day you deliver, meaning that you cannot say take hospitalization leave for the first three days when you are in the hospital, and so start your ML a little later lo. Taking your own AL etc should be no problem bah.

Ashley_Mom, don't complain lah, cos' you're already a mother of 1 and expecting another next year. Technically speaking, still a young mother.
Aqua, your boss sounds like a nice person. Like that, no choice, got to guai guai stay in the company, cos' understanding bosses are hard to come by nowadays.

Sherl, oic. Actually, I don't dare to prolong my ML tho' my boss is ok with me taking all 12 weeks (think I need it). But also afraid that my position will be 'usurped'. Kept asking my boss if my job will still be secure, and she said 'of coz lah, unless u don't want it'. Some more, to plan for my career path, she asked if I could take on an expanded portfolio after I return. What could I say, but reply positively 'of coz!'. But seriously, think my priorities will change once my BBs arrive, will be less ambitious liao.

Alethea...ya my boss is a nice person...his wife gave birth last dec...think her pregnancy also a bit tough...most of the time rest in bed. Thus maybe that's why he understands.
Talking about taking leave...I think I will start mine during Christmas that week...provided I have not delivered yet of course.

Ashley mom,
Yeah lor, that's what I tell my hubby also, but he always says better to be safe than sorry. haiz. I also tell him that I dun want to go hospital immediately when my labour pain start, if possible I want to wait till waterbag burst because I want the bag to burst naturally and dun want to wait in hospital too long. He also look at me like I siao like that.

Sherl - 1st time sure will be kancheong. Your hubby is also right, better play safe than sorry. But if possible, try and take a shower so you will be clean before delivery. Also after delivery, you won't be able to bathe for at least 2 days when in hospital.
