Mag - Been so busy coz the whole family has been sick on/off since 5th Dec. Hopefully, now everyone will be back to their pink health and stay put there. Wow...Psychology. That's a great profession. You are still very young...jia yu!!! I too was thinking of working overseas but plans were put on hold when I found out I was PG with #2.
ZuEn - Wow...one of my friends also was posted tot he middle east and he brought his whole family. Suppose to stay for only 2 years. It has been 4 years liao and they are still there...ha!ha! Ya...must think long and hard coz once you guys decide, it is a decision which you have to stick to for 2 yrs.
feifei - You are welcome!
Wow...salute you guys!!! Can still study when you guys still have to take care of BB.
Ritzy - No lah..you are not feeding her too much solid. It really depends on the individual baby. Even infants have their good and bad days. So, on her bad days, she will not be finishing her food, milk, etc. That's alright.
For 8-10 mth old infant, their milk intake should be around 630 - 720ml ( taken from Feed Your Child Right)
Ellysia - Hang in there! Due to generation gap and olden days thinking, sometimes MIL and DIL will have problems. That's normal and most of the time its the DIL that has to give-in especially when her DH sides his own mother. That's why I always feel that communication is upmost important. Talk to your DH and tell him how you feel and ask him to put himself in your shoes and offer a solution to ensure that the baby is safe and sound. Ya, do go and pick up your BB !
Thanks for the info!
ioio - Wow, a difficult boss indeed! Sayang2!!!
MLP - You are welcome!
KKreme -Ya lor, very pei fu. Like yourself, me also thinking of completing my studies when my #2 turns 18 mths. Talking about furthering in my career, I think I am way pass that. Heard that quite a number of people are given the golden handshake at their 40s. When my girl turns 18 months, I will be in my mid 30s...not employable anymore over here...so sad!
Re:Feeding Themselves
As our babies are getting more and more independent, they would want to do thing by themselves. So, I remembered my #1 NOT willing to open his mouth during lunch/dinner time till he hold the spoon and fork. So, there was a period where I had 2 sets of cutlery.
