Hi Mommies!!

*wave* I'm here lah!!

I got on and off come in and read this thread lah...but becos usually when i have the time to do it, it's usually using my iphone during those on off times when i'm not busy with Rylee and very leh-ceh to post mah...

Yah, i agree with the rest of the mommies on keeping the baby. We all know it's NOT easy at all, in fact, it's going to be VERY difficult, but we're not in your situation, so we can only say we understand but no one can make the decision ultimately but yourself. What i can say is, if u do abort, u WILL feel guilt for the rest of your life, cos one of my gf did that when she was very young and even now she got 2 kids of her own, she still regrets it and will cry when she thinks of what she did. Anyway, i'm glad u've decided to keep it. All the best!

And yes, i havent been updating my blog, funnily, i did update but it's all in draft formats, still havent touch up, upload pics and publish hehehehe.

Life has been very chaotic since i moved house in HK. Bigger place but slightly older but still above Kowloon station and Elements Mall. Rylee just fallen sick (flu but not h1n1 though) for the 2nd time of her life. After that, my mom kena and now me as well. Coughing and sore throat, i guess it's the weather changing to cold winds now. Boy, am i glad autumn/winter is finally here in HK!!!

Anyway, on the current topic, last time me and hubby used to hold hands and kiss good night and kiss goodbye (off to work), but for a while after Rylee was born, things got a little slackened a bit. Now that she's growing up so fast and imitating us a lot, we are making it an effort to re-established this as our routine. Now when hubby kiss me goodbye when going off to work, she would run to us for a group hug and then kiss Daddy goodbye too. I think it's a rather sweet thing to teach our kids.

Lately have been feeling rather *proud* as a mommy when a fren commented i did good in teaching Rylee social graces rather than the all important ABCs and 123s which most of the mommies in HK are doing for kids our age. Becos recently brought her to a casual playdate with my friends and their babies and the grandparents praised Rylee for being a good girl, eat nicely, say please and thank you, hello and goodbye. I was grinning from ear to ear hehehehehe. Having said that, i rem was it pixie or someone else who said our kids are angels outside but a devil at home? Rylee can be like that too, it's like she reserves the worst behaviour for my eyes only at home....i read that this is becos they're most comfortable with us and therefore can relax and be themselves with us...sounds nice in theory bt it's hard to choke myself seething n bursting with flames when she acts up!


Hey, a few mommies coming to HK soon rite? Come meet up with us if u can lah.

agree, Lynn is one of hot mamas. she is like a model, even my hubby says so. ;)

ROM & Wedding: actually we wanted our wedding on 30/6 which was the date when we first met. But then it was on Fri so we can't do church weeding (ROM) so had to shift 1 day later mean 1/7. So our wedding & ROM was on 1/7
It is very eventful coz: 29/6: MIL' birthday (we wanted to give her our present aka our wedding coz my hubby' family was longing for a wedding to be happened- hubby is the first one who got married among his siblings), 30/6: our first meet, 1/7: our wedding anni. ;-) So we can celebrate these 3 days together. ;-)

Wahhh welcome to SAHM club soon! Care to share what happened? But what do u mean by half correct? SAHM is SAHM, or ru planning to be 50% SAHM ie do part time or open business?

brand of condom
Durex lo.
 
aqua, i dunno whether it's available at jusco though. i know jusco KL has organic section and i think they carrys it , not sure about JB one leh.

if you want maybe i get one from KL for u. but it's not expensive. let me check with my mum the price first.
 
Haha, mcfluffy, my hubby is capricorn too. Ya, he always says Capricorns are like that. Hee.

Condoms
Haha, we stopped using since after year 1 of marriage when we started to TTC for no. 1. Also, felt that since so difficult to strike the first time. Plus my menses never returned when I was BFing, no need to waste $ over condoms. We used to buy durex though, whatever was commonly available.

Tongtong, haha, I don't mind traing to be an English grammar teacher but I look at the essays my hubby has to mark and I faint liao. :p

Hi, mylife, good to see you log in again.

Yes, agree, manners are very important. My gal likes to throw tantrums and go "No, no, no!" Like just now, she refuse to sit in her stroller though it's raining, she doesn't want the maid to carry and I can't carry her with an umbrella and a big tummy. So end up, we waited at the playgroup for almost half an hour for the rain to stop before going to ILs house. :p
 
JanBB,
Going to be SAHM or PTWM? So nice... I wish my hubby will allow me to but based on the current financial status, not possible leh. Got to pay instalments for the car, and also insurance for the whole family, monthly allowances for both sides of families... Haiz...
 
im sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy!!
my boss allowed me to work from home 1 day a week!! i've been planning this for so long liao...
 
mylife
wah you still got good memory abt what i have posted in forum, yes i was the one who said it. we always must be positive about our child(ren)'s bad behaviours. they will show the worst to us coz they do not have any barriers with us.
move to new kowloon station must be more convenient for you?

blessedbaby

krystle

luca,
condoms got many type (texture/flavored etc)...durex also offer many variety le...like ribbed/tingle/performax/extra sensitive/maximum love etc. So it gave u & yr spouse many choices to explore & have fun:p
 
steph

biggrin.gif
biggrin.gif
biggrin.gif
biggrin.gif
biggrin.gif

pixie,
Work fr hm gd gd. I don't think i can concentrate to work from home with both my kids or just Z at home. But that's gd for you cos u can spend more time with X

pixie,

Seriously, do BP for condom leh. Anyone knows where to get cheap condom of any brand, please share. "Accident" MUST NOT happen again :p


RE: Holiday
Hurray! Tomorrow going to Penang. Can have lots of nice food! And 2 nights of uninterupted sleep cos baby not going with us. Sure will miss her cos I still have to pump, everytime pump must think of her one lor.

I think one of the lucky one cos there is no leaking from my breast at all. Breast usually soft and seldom turns hard unless didn't latch/pump for more than 6 hours. Yet, supply is just enough for my girl. Pumping at work is quite smooth, actually is kinda nice to pump, cos I can take a short 15min rest/nap while I pump, so I am not that tired at work despite the waking up at night :)
 
jess
i cant wfh and jaga my boy at the same time...i most prob wfh at my mil place so that my mil can help jaga when im not free, got maid cook my boy's and my meals.
else in sengkang, i cant be working, cooking, and looking after my boy
 
kam, enjoy yourself in Penang. You are flying there right? Air Asia? How much is tickets now? I miss the Air Hitam Penang laksa, slurp!
happy.gif


Haha, I used to fall asleep pumping at work. :p
 
pixie,
hehe..i agree the ribbed ones no feeling. Not our meimei no feeling BUT we need MORE stimulation! High horse power engine of course need more OIL la...muahahaha.
sticky lubricant from durex ? got meh? u mean the tingle & warming type...got another one with cherry flavored...me & hb dun like it at all. Last time heard pple talk abt KY but i nvr try b4. Anyway dun need lubricant if u are wet enuff...Oops...am i too RA:p
 
pixie, so envious! congrats, so nice to be able to wrk from home! i wish my boss would allow, but he is always v against ....
 
Pixie, how come you can work from home ? so good!! Envy envy!!!

Sy, I never thought to use different types of C to explore and have fun one leh. Use it just for the sake of using it nia :p
 
i thought those flavored condoms and duno wat pattern kinda condoms are just gimmick, didnt know can give u different feeling haha.. hw ignorant of me. :p
 
Kam,
I laughed at your comment "ACCIDENT MUST NOT HAPPEN AGAIN!"...aiya, maybe when Xi Yu turns 1 year old you will have "courage" to try for #3??? You used to be so on about having 4 kids so I'm sure you'll reconsider again when #2 is older
happy.gif


All the condom talk prompt me to check the expiry date of my unused condoms...hahaha...lucky haven't expire. The last box used for so long also haven't finish so can imagine how "active" we are...sigh. I use Ansell brand, thin and good but seems like cannot find it anywhere now. Watsons used to sell it and it's actually cheaper than Durex. I don't really like Durex leh...too "fanciful"...hahaha...we are not the adventurous type.
 
luca
its just lubricant lar

tongtong, aqua
i originally got no ballz to ask but since company encourage this, i ask sui bian see if boss allow or not lor
 
tongtong,

last time i also nvr thought of having fun cos we were TTC...tiring cos every month my menses come, i sian liow...so wont bother to explore. Now different, cannot have accident & at the same time, have fun & explore the diff option avail loh.

Kam,
i dun have lobang for cheap C but i think u can try the Jap brand (002) gold packaging, very thin & gd le...now watson promo..2 boxes (20C) for $20 (UP$25.80).
 
Steph,
You mentioned YMCA cc right? There's one at my opposite block, it's cheap but seems like hygiene standards not very good cos alot of HFMD outbreaks...eeeks! Really "yi fen qian, yi fen huo" lor.
 
yvonne,
ya i mentioned YMCA bishan cc to Chaye. HFMD like very diff to prevent hor...which branch ? Even cherie hearts also diff standards (hygiene/enviro/teachers etc) cos they're franchise. Is like heng or suay thingy when choosing cc but sometimes branded or ex ones are usually safer.
 
mylife,
Welcome back ;) Will share more details next week. Steph & Kam almost guess it rite ^.^ I shld keep my fingers crossed in the meanwhile.

Topic of the day:
Since so many posts on "C", will like to ask a more personal question. Sure will PERK u up, haha ;)
Qns: How long is your ML duration? (Min & Max)
 
pixie,
oic hehe :p

steph,
i think those branded or exp cc have lesser children in the class, so less chances of getting the virus. like lynn's R, his class has 2 teachers to 5 students nia
 
kitsune,
Thanks. I will. Yes, the Ayer Hitam laksa is one of the main factors attract my hubby. He can eat 3 bowls at 1 go :)


Yvonne,
:) You can read my mind leh. Okay, reform my sentence - ACCIDENT MUST NOT HAPPEN WITHIN ONE YEAR. You are right, now we forgot about what we said 2 months ago that we want to stop at 2. In fact, start to think if we should have #3 :) I love kids BUT I am very old already liao......


steph,
Oh, okay. Will try the Jap brand. See if I have time to grab the promo or not.

I don't dare not to use C though I am still BF. Because don't want accident for now.
 
hey Janbb,
u haven ans my 1st Q for topic of the day...now wanna jump to yr Q ah??? And u gotta ans to your own Q 1st mah!:p

pixie, janbb,
The JG Hday prog, i think i will give it a miss cos i am looking at attending trial 1st & see how. I also wanna bring #2 (8mths) for trial le...dunno which one to start 1st..
 
Pixie, you are so lucky!

Kam, wah you already resumed ur ML activity. Think I only resumed 9 months later after delivery! So XY is “accidentally” made, what abt HR? planned?
 
Steph,
Yah lor, heng suay sometimes but what I don't like about some cc is the kids are not separated into different rooms hence difficult to "contain" spread of virus.

Janbb,
Ahem...now usually about 15-20mins cos scared to wake my boy up
happy.gif
. Last time can stretch to 45mins when we're in the mood.
 
nw with Javier slping in the same room, must chop chop get the activity done!... otherwise wait he wake up then jialat...
then cannot make too much noise somemore. hahahaa
 
Steph,
Oki, U noe y i didn't ans cos I didn't use too, haha ;) Same method as Pixie.

And my ans is
Min: 5min (I will complain "why so fast", keke!!) Max: 20-30min?
Aiyo, now always chop chop, not like last time.
 
tongtong,
HR is planned. XY is an "accident".

Hor hor, we already resumed activities before I finish my confinement :)

Yvonne,
That day our girl woke up 2x when we were "exercising", so it dragged till almost 1 hour cos gonna paused in between to soothe her, very the funny.
 
Ahem...I also got one question...
Do you find it takes a longer time to get lubricated (wet) after giving birth??
