i think i am the only mummy here who is super depressed ...suddenly before i slept yesterday...i felt so sorry for myself that i burst out crying...
there were so many things that was going thru my head...the maid issue, how my MIL treat the maid, how my MIL will treat my bb next time (with the maid experience, i keep thinking things are going to get worst with bb next time), my dad (some $ problems he is going thru), how i wished my mum was till around ( she passed away last nov, was thinking if she was around to emotionally support me, then i wouldnt feel so lonely and helpless with my own problems and my dad's problems)...plus how i am going to cope with bb next time...
just felt so upset and so sorry for myself...then when bb started kicking me...me felt even worst cuz me like bad mummy who keep getting upset and depressed..

YLN (doll_puppet) ,

M2B,
thanks for your concern. Now is just cooling period between hubby and me. We will talk but only when necessary. The whole matter will blow over.
YLN,
oh dear, hugs for you. I can understand how you feel now. You're not the only one who's super depressed.
The past week has been emotionally draining for me after the "argument" I had with hubby. There was a dispute over something which I felt I needed to let him know my take on it, but I did not want to talk to him face to face as I know we will end up shouting etc. I didn't want the shouting as I did not want to break down in front of him and some more in my parents' house.
Anyway, unknown to even my mum, there were few nights when I also felt so sorry for myself that I cried. The only good thing was that I was sleeping in my brother's room which is currently vacant, so at least can cry in peace.
Like you, I also felt bad that why I had to get myself depressed and then cry, then affecting baby.
I guess it is easier said than done, right now, I'm just looking forward to baby's arrival. She will be my bundle of joy, who will at least put a smile to my face. And there will be a lot to look forward to. At least my mum is eagerly looking forward to my baby's arrival.
Perhaps you should start preparing for your baby's arrival? Maybe you can work out a schedule for your maid to help out with your baby? Just some suggestions to keep your mind off unhappy things.
Have you also talked to your hubby about your depression? If he's the understanding sort and cares for you, you can share your concerns and worries with him.
If you need a listening ear, I'll be glad to lend you mine

Hey there, dun say u're a bad mummy.. We have our emotions & surpressing them wld also be bad for our bbs too *hugs* Just cry it out if u can't take it k?
But i think u need to tell ur maid in the presence of ur MIL tt she ought to wait for u & HB to return home before she eats. I think tt's courtesy, if not respect.. Unless u've given her instructions, otherwise
val
Keep ur spirits up too.. Agree, now look fwd to the arrival of ur little one & count on those who can render ur support.
snow
*sigh* Man are sometimes diff to fanthom as well.. If we dun inform, they may say we dun consult them. And when we do, they say we are over-reliant on their opinions.. Gosh!
happycat
Hmm..Sun's coming soon!! *heheh* Anyway, must treasure these moments while ur boy's so attached to u. Usually when they hit adolescence, they wld withdraw fr mummy & daddy
Btw, u staying in 1 bedder? If ur boyboy sees tt, he may also want to stayover yah?

thanks mummies for comforting..its really nice to be able to share and at least u all will understand...
Valnsw
i know what u mean when u say to be able to cry in peace..sometimes u just want to cry and let out all the unhappiness without letting anyone hear or know...just some time by yourself...i also try not to cry in front of hubby...else he will be worried..but last night was perhaps the bursting point liao...nothing much triggered it..just felt really sad...hubby was by my side , holding my hand all the while...i guess he knew there was nothing he said or do that will make me feel better..so he just let me cry..after half an hour of me sobbing...then he ask me what happen..by then, i was feeling better, so i told him what i felt and what was going thru my head...he did try to give some objective advice...but i guess ultimately, i just need to let it out and i know, the 'problems' that i have need time and a strong me to overcome...the problems may still exist and there could be no solutions, but like what u said, as long as he can share my concerns and worries, and be a listening ear..i think it is comforting enough for me..i just need to be strong and stay happy..

Hi Luvlel,
Usually my appointment is on Wed evening, but the ward booking is during office hours. Thus, after check with the counter, not even check with the dr, I have make the booking on last morning visit.
Dont want to make another trip in the am session just to do ward booking. We may need to make the payment to activate the booking

Cry:
I understand that we all feel kind of sad now a days. It happens with me too. I get up at night to go to toilet and after that I am really sad thinking about everything not pleasant. Then I realised I need to be in positive state of mind as it would affect my baby too. Then I started concentrating more on my baby when these thoughts come. The moment I start doing it, I tend to feel better.
Sharing with everyone as crying is not good for us and i read at babycentre, it may actually trigger labour.
Think positive and think about the Baby.
Cheers!

YLN,
I'm glad to hear that you feel better now. I guess right now, because you have alot of things on your mind, plus all the preggie hormones, it makes you more emotional and prone to crying.
Just remember, there will always sunshine after the rain
Even though I had a terrible last week, things now starting to cool off between hubby and me, so things will slowly get back to normal.
Anyway, as what Megan said, we are all here to help support each other. You are not alone in this. So cheer up!

According to the book, "The frist three years", the author recommends 3 to 3 and a half years. At 3 years, the child is more independent and has other distractions beyond home e.g. school. For close sibling relationship, the gap should not exceed 5 years. Gaps two years and below are generally more difficult because the elder one generally may not have learnt to express himself verbally yet.

YLN, Valnsw,
welcome me to the 'sobbing' club!
me oso haf been feeling extremely depressed over family issues..been crying everyday..
some more i haf problems falling back to sleep when i wake up to pee at 4am everyday, and start to think/worry abt the possible problems i will face when bb is born.
but everytime after i cried, i feel so guilty and bad to my bb. oso starting to get worried whether i'm having pre-natal blues and slipping into depression..
actually i realised dat sometimes we jus need hb to give us a listening ear, to hold us and reassure us dat everyting will be fine.
His mere presence of being there for us, showering care & concern speaks louder than words.
YLN,
re: maid, my mom's maid oso v good life.
she wears the zara, mango and esprit clothes which i passed down to my mom.
she oso gets an old handphone passed down from my dad, and i got so pissed, cos i told my mom, maids don't need handphones. jus becos she's sad dat her hp (given by her aunt here) is spoilt doesn't mean we haf to compensate her wif another one!
to them, they jus give since those tings don't mean much to them. but u hafto explain to them why u feel otherwise.
1) communicate to them abt the different expectations of how u want ur maid to be treated (afterall it's ur maid. if she is 'spoilt' then u will haf problems dealing with it later.)
2) set general guidelines for them to follow.
in any case, don't hold it against them, cos they meant well too. old folks do tend to be nice to maids i realised.
tink of it tis way: it's better for them to treat ur maid well than to ill-treat her rite?

ReiRei (reirei) ,
No, cannot downgrade anymore if we have book our book during delivery. It apply to both gvt and private hospital.
That is the reason I opt for 4 bedded first. Anyway will stay there for 2 days only and I do not want hb to stay as I want him to have enough sleep at home during nite time and once discharge he will be very busy with bb stuff.

Avocado,

jvenus,
Nope, I did not receive any email from you. Ermz, in fact, I don't have a hotmail account leh..
You can PM me the link. What is the link about?
reirei,
thanks for the concern. I guess we ladies got to be strong and stick it out. I kena leg cramps last week, yup and tend to wake up middle of the night, not able to go back to sleep properly.
Now I'm feeling more moody, maybe I guess it's our internal system allowing us to vent out all the emotions/frustration.
Anyway, I think when baby comes, we will be too busy and tied up to even think of all these already. haha

me too. sometimes when my dad carry my baby niece, he will tell gong gong carry him, po po carry mei mei. Worried how to breastfeed with him around. Oh, have u prepared a present for him from didi? Was told to prepare one so that the elder one will not be so jealous of the younger one.

YLN/valnsw/reirei,
Gals, try to think of the positive side ok. Else later develope pre and post-natal depression which not good!!! Whenever you cant control please come in here to let go your emotion and I believe listening to the MTBs advice when make you feel much better! Try not to cry la, not good for yourself and BB.
avocado/happycat,
My boy also at terrible 2 now. I really headache dunno how to disciplin him le? whatever he wants he will insist till he got it and he is super duper sticky to me! I cant even go toilet or take shower, he will cry till I am out. I tried soft and hard method on him but both not working
Avocado,
I will deliver at TMC but they never request me to pay the downpayment le, only need to fill up the form which I did it few months back.
Re: Booking of delivery date, time and theatre
My gynae told me that unlikely I am not able to have natural birth coz my gal is gonna be big for my size (I had c-sect for my boy that time coz also too big for me). My EDD is on 15 Aug and I have requested to have the c-sect on 8 Aug. Gynae initially dun allow me to book the date but I told her that day is quite popular coz 080808 so at the end she bo bian have allowed me to book the date and time. But then I have to pay ard $500+ for gynae fee and $200+ for theatre booking, total ard $800+ for that date. Despite I have made the booking, I always have a feeling that I will not deliver on that day lo and will deliver earlier than that coz nowadays always have BH contraction.
Any of you have book the date for delivery? can advice the charges?

update on my week 35 gynae visit:
Baby's weight = 2.6 kg (gained 781 g since week 32)
Mummy's weight = 56.2 kg (gained 1.5 kg since week 32)
Total weight gained = 8.5 kg
Getting worried now cos my gal still in breech position at week 35... gynae say her weight is good at 2.6kg & that I have to go for C-section if my baby dont turn around by week 37... still got 2 weeks to go... i told gynae that i have been doing the "cat" exercise everyday but duno why she is not turning yet... gynae replied that sometimes there is a reason why she is going against the forces of gravity... she measured my baby's head circumference & exclaimed that her head is now at 35cm, a full term baby's head circumference... i looked at the monitor & the scan weight suddenly jumped to 2.75kg & the no of weeks jumped to wk 39+... she said my baby follow daddy's big head & chubby face... oh no... previously scared that baby is small due to me taking long term ventolin & tried to eat a lot of buffets, chocolate, chips, durian, cakes, ice-cream & birdnest etc... now seems that baby is too big for my size & maybe not possible for normal delivery... so sianz...
So far, I have been preparing myself to go for natural delivery & have not thought about C-section yet... I asked my gynae what are the pros & cons of epi versus GA C-section? She mentioned that if I'm that kind who cannot stand the idea of being awake while being cut up then go for GA but then HB cannot be with me...
Decisions... decisions...
YLN,

re: hospital admission

Avocado/twin star,
Booked the date but really I hope I can actually deliver on that date!!! Worry my gal cant wait
Krex,
I am super duper small size one!! last round my pelvis bone not big enuf for my boy's head to engage so bo bian need to go c-sect. This round gynae expect my gal size approx the same as my boy's so she said 80% chance not able to go natural.
Megan,
Did you pay additional on the booking fee for both gynae and hospital?
