Thanks mummies.
Pixel, we saw from the cctv that she started crying and didn't move her right arm, but my maid didn't call me even though she kept crying throughout the whole hour. I believe that she really don't know that she can dislocate the arms like that. I just cannot accept that she can let her cry for so long knowing that there's something wrong with her arm and she didn't call me until she has no choice. (from the cctv, she kept looking at the arm for a long time and my girl was crying throughout).
Jess, ya i only work like once a week and whenver i'm at work, i'll ask my sis to come over to jaga, and last sat was the only sat that my sis didn't come. This maid is with us coming to 6 months, not very new.

Lyn,
She is ok. Consider attitude good. Now can feed and play with my boy. But i still monitor her when she bath Xavier. Scare she not careful and let him fall in the bathroom.
With me and mil, she just follow command and do. But a few times, she also don't understand what I am talking and she didn't say. ~ faint. She understand my mil broken english better than my english.

Quick break while no. 1 is sleeping and no. 2 is looked after by maid. 
Luvv, hope your gal gets better soon. So poor thing. Must tell the maid off and tell her not to be too rough.
Mandy, I watched that last week before my CL left. Now, no more chance to pak tor liao.
Icy, that's good. My maid sometimes still blur blur one. Say her then she'll cry. Hubby said she doesn't understand long sentences. Hiaz.
Mom2nat, Elliot so smart, RaeAnne so defiant. Said no want and go away to me so I made her cry for half an hour in the living room. Refused to carry her. Time to read the 'Positive Discipline' book that I bought some time back.

Jess,
The cc is considered very nice to call and check on J. The teachers should be quite nice then...give him some more time to adapt and adjust. He needs to get to know the teachers in order to feel comfortable
B has been quite good these 2 days...he walked into the class on his own but he still refuse to say bye bye to me. He still cried a little when he saw other kids crying but will stop once teacher bring him to wash his hands and sit down to play. But he starts crying when it's time to go home cos he refuse to return one particular toy to teacher...aiyo...this boy really very funny.
Anyway, wanted to tell you that most husbands are like dat...they don't want to make decisions cos firstly, they really have no clue about cc, playgroup, etc etc. Secondly, they don't want to be the bad guy and are afraid we will hold them responsible for their decision...hahaha! Nevermind lah, you make the decision and make him support you cos he's the one who asked you to decide.

Mandy,
I watched Avatar 3D last week. Very nice movie!
Yvonne,
Until now, HR also never says goodbye to me leh when I leave him at the cc, but no more crying. Some time when he is in better mood, he still willing to give me a hug. Most of the time, he bochap me, just turns his back to me, or runs into the cc straight away and starts to play with the toys (= also bochap me). Now when I fetch him, he would run to the door, call me "Mama" loudly, and run back to get his back, then run to give me a big hug and a wet kiss! So sweet hor

Kam,
That's funny rite? How come they refuse to say goodbye to us...they're upset we leave them there??? Hahahaha...B alo walk in without even looking at me, but if he turned around and see me walk away, he will cry. So probably they're still upset about the short separation

She only cry when I let her call home during the New Year. When we say her, she will just say yes yes or sorry. Fortuately won't cry else I also sian. MIL say she quite "old bird" kind, not like newbie scare scare. So we also have to keep watch first. Yes, i think they don't understand long sentence. Then those interviews are all standard answers and all.. so they understand.
mom2nat
I saw there is a PCF opposite ur hse at Blk 213. Any idea if it is good. Seemed like we had 3 Nursery in PR. I am looking 1 with enrichment. Anyway, that is for next yr.

Icy, yours is filipino or Indo? I'm wondering whether to change mine cos she told my CL that she wants to go back after she finish repaying the agent loan. But recently, her FIL needs money for op (I think) so she's waiting for April full pay. I already gave her advance for Jan and Feb pay but still not enough.
Anyone with maid knows if need to pay for her airticket if the maid does not fulfil the 2 yr contract?

Thanks, grumpus and kellie. The thing is she never said anything to me and now she definitely needs to work until end of April if she wants the money for her FIL's op. But the best time for me to change maid is during hubby's Mar school hols so that at least there is another person to help me. Worse is my CL already trained her so she can bathe the baby, wash, sterilise and cook a bit better. So I don't know whether to change her lor. Hiaz...

my fren was told to pay for her maid airtix even though the maid only work for 6mths & still owed the loan amt. the story was my fren's maid told her that she wanna get married and join her bf in msia first then move to US together. then my fren called the maid agency & was told to pay for the maid airticket back to her home country or can pay a cheaper sum to send her to msia. my fren called US embassy and found out the bf has just applied for green card and yet to get approved. so she told the maid that the bf bluffed her and the maid fainted on the spot like fits symptom then continuous vomiting. so my fren bopian and obliged to agree to send her to msia then the maid ok. so it seemed like the maid is trying to elope and yet demand my fren to send her to msia.quite drama rite...
Talking abt maid
one day i saw #2 with a red mark on her head and asked my maid what happened. She claimed that my elder girl hit #2 with her head but #2 didnt cry. But the funny thing was a few days later, the redness is still there and swell like mossie bites than kena knocked leh. thank god i didnt scold/beat my #1 else wrongly accused my #1.
Luvv
Hope your girl recover soon.

regarding the bhubu tee, the red tee pic on website is brighter than the real tee that i received
chaye
i have received the tees last wk but i sent back for reprint. reason being i dont like the 160g quality and i wanted dark red print but they gave me orange red print out. nevertheless, the support from the supplier was good cos they agreed to take back the tee and will reprint them on 180g for me with dark red print.

aqua, u guess it rite...
But my gal dont have special privilege there. She still get her fair share of punishment n scolding in sch..hehehe.
Teacher Shuiling is very patient and has been teaching the toddler class for quite sometime. But she is very shy and timid (in my opinion).she will call me up immediately whenever my gal falls down / hurt herself. Seriously speaking, I have never see someone so patient like her, esp when handling my spoilt gal..haha..

aqua which center u putting ur gal at? haha.. it will be nice if we can put ours together
Thank mummies, she's willing to move her arms bit by bit now especially when she's playing but still refuse to hold anything.
Mom2nat,
not in cast cos we wanted to go tcm when the kkh doc couldn't set her arms back. still considering whether to keep the maid. When things happen, we tend to think of her flaws, will calm down and consider seriously. Frankly speaking, before this incident, i was telling hubby that my maid cannot cope alone for my girl for a whole day, as she cannot multi task and she really does things very slowly, even cooking alone, i timed her yesterday, 4 very simple dishes (1 soup, 1 fry egg, 1 veges and i simple chicken dish), she took 4 hours. Let alone if we're planning for no. 2, i wonder how much help she can render me. Imagine she was telling me that my girl very active and she needs 2 maids when she was here initially. My girl is really easy to entertain, she doesn't cry on whims and fancies, easily distracted with toys and games. I guess my maid is not a kids' person.
kitsune,
Ya got to pay for the maid's air tic even if they are here for only 1 day.unfair right? even if they are the ones who wants to breach the contract.
Jess,
Men are all like that, all the decisions let us make, they still ask a lot of questions like why this and why not that...etc...sometimes difficult to explain. But i feel better to place in childcare also, rather then complicate matters by getting extended family involved.
