Irin: You're left-handed? Actually when you hold their hands to write, don't have to be neat at all. As long as you can hold a pen in their hand and move the pen (which I'm sure you can), can learn how to write liao.
For me, it's more teaching her how to hold the pen. Writing, don't have to learn so early lah.. But she likes pens. Dunno why. It's the second recognisable word she utters, after ball.

jj/Astro: My kids are 100% chinese. My son born with light coloured hair..i dont know why also haha.
jj: Actually my kids are July & Oct. I was introduced to this thread by another mar mummy
So from day 1, only chat in Mar thread. My boy is 17mths old. My girl is 32mths.
jj: Actually my kids are July & Oct. I was introduced to this thread by another mar mummy
Mejo: Yah lor. On this topic, the first thing that came to my mind was the baby girl infanticide commited by the Chinese.. That surely tilted the law of nature. Maybe there are other tribes/populations which do this too (to either males or females) that we do not know of.
Think the odds should even out somehow too..

never mind lah, you give the nutrients through solids lor
oh there are certain things i won't compromise. certain things i try to. so you got to see if it's something you can accept lor

astro,
all mummies will miss their babies.
and to put it crudely, all babies only have one mother. so no matter how bad we think we suck, we will still be the best in their eyes

SQ: ya i suffering from damn bad seperation anxiety now.. also stress cos dunno if i can cope when i go back. They seem to think i am a suitable candidate.. but i stress cos been away from my line for a while.. scared cannot cope or i meet short of their expectation of me. me virgo lah, thats why can't help thinking and worry so much.
Astro: thanks for your kind words..
CK: no need to stress being a SAHM, the only boss u will have for being a SAHM is ur daughter, and i dun think ur daughter will give u any bad review or even terminate ur services..hehe So no worries one. Give urself some time, u will slowly ease urself into this role.

astro, i am a sahm, but my baby is under my mum's care in sin. I am bringing my girl to bj in april, and if my mum dont follow me back, then i will consider myself as 100% sahm.
But i still considering whether i should look for a job in Bj, cos i dont like to be sahm. ha ha.

it's normal to feel this way
in fact, you only feel this way cos it's always been like you to do a good job. even when you're a sahm

ck,
u can always try and see how it goes. whatever you decide, it's not "final". u can always reverse your decision
star,
same for you. if you find that you can't cope, you can always quit after trying it out. at least you try and can satisfy yourself in that aspect

starfruit, read that you are going back to work soon. How time flies cos when I joined this thread, all your babies were only abt 2-3mths old.
I understand your feelings on the seperation anxiety thingy...I have been SAHM for the past few months, in fact since i got preggy with Mischa. Aft I delivered, took care of her full time until recently i bring her to my mum's plc more often so that I can do my work at home. Hubby has been saying that I 'relak' for too long...and its true. i can feel myself 'rotting'. nt that SAHMs are doing nothing, infact its not an easy task I admit. But its not my cup of tea,i think i still need to work to feel 'sane'.
I agree with SQ that you have done a good job as a SAHM. Its a good time to go back to ur work at least you have seen Racia grown for the past 12mths. If circumstances allows and you dun feel the same satisfaction as you had taking care of Racia, then u can always come bk to being a full time mum. No need to feel sad abt it.
