Sigh... HB went back to work this week, me got no time to log on as often, only managed to steal time when I'm able to stay awake (like now) to express milk & log on at the same time.
Joanne, CSI_Fan, Constance, "pei fu" u still got energy to entertain so many guests. Both HB & me dun really like big gatherings, so for both #1 & #2, we dun hv full mth celebrations at all. Just ordered some cakes for family/relatives n bought cake vouchers for colleagues/friends. We just spent a day having dinner wz immediate family members thatz all.
For both #1 (6 yrs ago) & #2, we ordered our cakes from Melrose. The cakes, ang ku kuah n glutinous rice all not bad. I like their glutinous rice. One thing though, after 6 yrs, their packaging neber change. Compared wz Chocz, Sweetest Moments, etc, their packaging is kinda boring, not fanciful.
Hazel, can understand what u r going thru. When I 1st became a SAHM wz my #1 in Oct 06, I wasn't used to it n a few times quarrelled wz hubby. Just find that he doesn't understand what it meant to stay home 24x7 taking care of kid n household chores. After a year, I hv learnt to accept things n take things easy (I think I got more patience now). Now wz #2, occasionally I also feel frustrated. Esp wz #2, cos taking care alone without any help, I'm only able to catch 3-4hrs sleep daily. Eversince, HB went back to work, couple of times, he comes back feeling tired n show unhappy face, I dare not even ask him to take over the babysitting duties cos I scared he "blow up" at the kids. At the end of the day, I'm able to stay positive cos I tell myself, thatz the price to pay to have wonderful kids like my 2 gals.
Today, just went back to KK to see gynae for my 6wks post delivery check up. As usual, my gynae wld check that uterus contracted nicely, the stitches below ok n then do pap smear. Pap smear result wld be sent to me 2-3wks later. He asked me if going to hv 3rd one, I told him my HB definitely dun want (it was so hard even to pursuade him to hv #2). My gynae just smiled n said then better take precautions n pass me a brochure on contraception to read. I like my gynae, I think sometimes, he very cute.
