Hi mummies,
it has been some time since I post.. Life had been a little tough for me especially last week when hb is not around and I need to take care of my dad and the kids..it teLly drain me up.. But it made me stronger ..
Thank you all for the prayer and good wishes.. I really hope that the lord will have mercy...
Dustee,
glad that you and hb decided to move out.. How about renting a small place for the time being.. A bigger place would mean more house work for you..

Michelle,
Saturdays are going to be hard for me until after Oct, so I'm going to drop out permanently first.
PB,
Gd that Poppy doesn't open her mouth when there's food in her mouth still. Declan will allow you to stuff until he decides there's too much food, then... out it comes
Steph,
My thinking is, already so much conflict with one kid. I can't imagine the conflict when it comes to 2!
dustee,
OMG, that is depressing indeed. And your hubby sounds so much like mine! Yes, asking him to move to a HDB flat is probably gonna kill him. I can imagine hubby going, "but we have such a big garden that he can grow up in and play football together" *rolls eyes*
I grew up in a HDB flat.. what's wrong?!

Re ur hubby not talking to his own parents hor.....its very normal appearently.....hahaa
Cos my hubby also doesn't really talk to his siblings n dad. If not becos he is working with his dad I doubt they will talk much. N he likes to be deaf also ma so poor me always gotta ans his parents. Oh yah hubby's mum likes to tell him stuff. Like what our mums tell us (weird right).
Maybe jus do what ur hubby does n purposly make an effort to ignore her when she irritates u. If you can't do it(ignore her), then jus talk to Melissa while you carry her n walk away pronto!!
No matter hw dense ur mil is she'll get the message after a few times.
I think cos ur nice so ur mil bullys u lah. Take ur stand n she'll realise she can't bully u.
Me too will forever remember the anguish my inlaws caused me when we tried to move out from their place. But then its also becos of that that I know if anything happens my hubby is always on my side.(we did move out right) and nw since they pretend to be nice to me I'll pretend to be nice to them for the sake of my hubby n kids. But forever keep in mind what they are capable of. Think I'll have another battle to fight when the kids are older but I'll enjoy the peace for now.
do1nk
Sorry aah I know I very late in reply but normally Pds dun charge consultation again if u go back within 2 days.
Cellow
Wah ur MIL.....I also kowtow to her....wonder woman....hehehe

Damien has that book but in The Little Red Hen. We got it from Popular so u can go look.

doggiebb, Michelle,
Relax girls! Boys DO talk to their parents! My hubby and brothers-in-law are very good examples! Hence the "I'm-going-to-die-in-this-house" theory.

hello mummies
I didn't get to enjoy the long weekend as hao ran down with flu and fever... he started with running nose on sat, then fever on sun.. self medicate with panadol and suppository and only brought him to see doc on tue.. So tired waking up to monitor his temperature. But he's still very active even with his fever.. whereas mummy here is totally drained of energy
do1nk
hope bbG's rashes will be gone soon
dustee
your mil sounds horrible.. good thing that your hubby has consented to moving out.. I believed it's possible to renovate HDB flat to create more space in living room for his big piano. And nowadays they have piano which can attach headphone. So won't disturb neighbours
qing
jia you jia you!! hope to hear good news from you soon. And do enjoy the process!!! don't stress out
son ignore parents
this is really disturbing!!! me also have an only son le... I'm looking forward to him and me talking about everything and anything

Mr H talks to the mother alot too. Anything, any problem will think of the parents first. He will call his parents every other day just asking wanna dine with us anot. and he will travel all the way down from Jurong to Tampines just to dine with them, of coz bringing me and Bosco along lo.
I also want a little gal. Gal seems to be more sensitive. Sweet. I hope my next one can be a gal. If is another boy, i just have to resign to fate. haha! 2 is enuff.

Boys n Mummies
Actually......I think there's always 2 sides of the coin lah.
Like my hubby he doesn't really 'talk' to his family. But he has 3 younger bros who are CLOSE....very close to their mum. N......let's jus say I won't want to be scooping out icecream for D when he's 22 yr old n wants ice cream for breakie.
N I have to bring him for hair cut, buy clothes etc. Although it would be nice in a way when the kids will still go out with me BUT.....another tot, dun they have their own friends???? Duhhhhhh..........
So I jus want the kids to remember and think of me always. N I hope I won't interfere in their marital life next time n be hated by my DIL or SIL.....LOL

sons and mummies
no matter wat, sons will not talk to mummies the way daughters talk to mummies. daughters can (but smtimes dun) tell mummies anything and everything under the sun; sons need a reason to talk. Mr C talks to his mummy a lot, mostly on her stuff, v little on his stuff. Dun hv bros, so cannot compare... I talk to my mummy dun need reason one.... half half on my stuff and her stuff.
ya dor,
i dun wanna be washing C's laundry and having to rush home to prep C's meals when he is 22! n really i think there would be smthing majorly wrong if he only hangs out w me and mr C and C2 every single weekend. like, get a life, kiddo!
i expect separation to occur around the time the son goes off to school. oh well. give him roots and wings... use the wings to fly off, jst need to rem me and mr C during CNY and bdays.
really hope C2 is a girl

i love joochiat shophouses too! hi-5! but, does seem to be very ex, for the ones that are in nicer lanes (and not those with suspicious activities).
mothers and sons
mummies don't worry, i'm sure your sons will love you back and talk to you when they are grown-ups too. my hb don't talk to his mum coz he feels that she's still trying to control him even though he's an adult now (she still...sometimes tries to rearrange his wardrobe, buys his clothes for him, and when i say buy clothes, it means she buys like 5 different types of pants and brings home and asks him to try on, then she'll go back to the shops and return the ones that don't fit...... )
like erm, she wanted him to quit his eca when in sec school coz didn't want his studies to suffer. and insisted on fetching him home after jc coz didn't want him taking bus or mixing around with his classmates. stuff like that. quite... extreme lah.
even now she demonstrates some of this over-protectiveness with pomfret. like she doesn't encourage pomfret to walk (coz dont' want her to fall down), stuff like that.
Esquare
will pray for your dad! stay strong!
bbG
actually every small thing i will run to the pd. once pomfret had this dreadful flu and fever, i went to the pd 4 times in one week!
messy open house
we can do in the period of 7th-11th november coz my in-laws will be away. hehe.

i exactly understand what you are saying about how the way a daughter talk to her mummy will be different from the way a son will talk to his mummy.
And being a man, he is expected to have his own family, take care of his wife and children. if he hang around me like a mummy's boy, it will be such a disgrace.
on the other hand, even when a daughter is married off, her heart is still with her mummy. and the link is even stronger when the daughter have children of her own and knows exactly how being a mother feels like. and so yes, i really pray that C2 will be a girl too for you!

barney
today watched an episode of barney and friends about "what a mommy does" and there's this part when the kid asks barney "isn't mummy special?" and barney says "yes a mummy is possibly the most important person in the world!" so nice, must let pomfret watch this again when she's older hehe.

I think my old GP also does that ie the no consultation charge within 2 days cos it means the meds are not working n you go back n change meds.
Actually cos my PD tells me loud n clear.
"You know I dun charge if you come back within 2 days so anything you jus come back or call me okie."
hehehe

N by then no super block nose but voice changed n nose still slightly runny BUT I need him to get well pronto. Cos his Bday celebration is this SATURDAY!!!!

LOL me also very auntie. every time at supermarket i head straight to baby section first to check if diapers are on sale
oh just to share, those who are keen on landed property but not the price, you know where i stay? those tiong bahru old flats? some ground floor units have a nice garden area! well technically it belongs to the government but they just take and plant stuff and nobody cares. and some have an indoor courtyard area too. so worth considering! i think market rate is about 450k. i THINK
dustee
yaya there is a row of extremely nice ones at joo chiat. i want!!!! i saw one that has a 'peephole' in the floor of the second level, to look down at the people calling at the main door! how cool is that!
your MIL's behaviour is so extreme la!
re hubbies not talking to mummies
i think mine is the opposite. he is VERY close to his mother. which brings its own sets of frustrations, i assure you. as his wife, i want to know that i am the only woman in his life. and i want him to be THE MAN. not revert to the same behaviour he exhibited when he was a boy living with his mum. but i got to grit and bear with it since we're staying with her now.

check out chip bee gardens too. 3 bedrooms upstairs, pantry under stairs, large living area downstairs, tiny kitchen, front garden, back garden. i think it's $5k to rent. they don't go on sale.
also there are the lovely black and whites (another dream. sigh) at hooper road and makepeace road (newton) and if you drive, the same are cheaper at changi or seletar - near old seletar airport.
sigh.
when will it be my turn to strike 4D

Ok, rushing off a reply before I go wash up to dash for a meeting later. First meeting in years and it has to rain!
do1nk,
Part of the reason for my reluctantness to have a #2 is where we are staying. But a bigger part is that I don't think I can handle it. Hubby's reason is he doesn't think he can handle it too. We are still running in circles like headless chickens, so a #2 scares the SHIT out of us.
dustee,
Oh yes! Your story reminds me of the time where you said your MIL even decides when to change your toothbrush!

my mil even tries to change my clothes hangers! i brought all mine over but she instructed the helper to change them and only recently i instructed the helper to change it back. and after that my mil came over and tried to explain why her hangers are better but i just said i wanted to use mine. (imagine a tussle of wills just over clothes hangers. can you blame me for taking the easy way out and retreating every time?)
with my mil, a 'no' never ends the conversation. she will continue to ask and will start to explain why she believes her way is better. so sometimes it's part tragic part amusing to see her walk after my hb continuing to explain while he just shakes his head once and turns and walks off.
once i said to her "ma you cannot nag your son so much, he already has a lot on his mind" and then she just went on and on about a parent's love and yada yada (while i regretted bringing it up)
next thing we know, she wrote a card to my hb saying "in my mind you're always the adorable little boy" which quite gave my hb the shivers.
