re: envy from colleages
my colleagues also say that to me when i went back to work briefly to settle some stuff. they think i everyday stay at home shake leg n enjoy myself when in fact, even with maid, its super occupied with either bb or also help out with housework. only once or twice a week bring bb out look see but by the time come back also v.tired. so where got time to shake leg??!!
re: maid abuse
sigh... looking at the clip, i also shudder coz i was actually thinking of leaving bb with maid alone at home when i return back work. coz really buay tahan my MIL's behaviour, eat into my nerves. always ask y bb cry, y bb cranky. she didn't look after her own children till they were 3 yrs old n dunno how young babies r like n yet so critical towards my boy. n offer advice which make things worse - ask me to give him water when he crying - is she mad?!! i give him water, he will yell even more, which is normal of babies coz they r used to taste of milk.
then later when weaning him n putting him on highchair, he won't be trained overnight, sure take some time to settle down n b fussy thru out. so have b firm n cannot cave in to bb's fussiness. by that time i going back work liao, i dunno how to tahan her coz she will surely complain y this y that. in the end, undo all my best intentions to train my bb. my mother working, if not i would have put my bb with her long ago.
so now i really dunno if i shd put maid at home alone or just leave to an not understanding MIL - who doesn't carry her own grandchild at all since day 1! only carry him for photo taking a while on his full mth. other than that, its hands off my boy unless boh bian.
so sorry for blabbering on this forum but this issue of childcare is one of my main worry... sigh. okie, i better not say on, dun spoil the mood of u mummies.
hippo,
ur gal so so cute, sure collect lots n lots of any baos one with her big BIG grin like that!
re: SAHM
i seriously think that's a v.gd option if financially viable. nothing beats taking care of ur own child alone.
