I oso pass the basic theory test and now need to go back to M'sia to get a letter n then i can convert my license alr.. but on n off i will drive as well..hehe. Cant wait to get my license then i can drive here n thr
 


i not 'hiong' driver. haha... cos so long nv drive liao so he dare not let me drive. i tried driving in an empty carpark but he keep shaking his head. i also dare not drive cos i always dream that my brake is not working when i drive. scary...
 
hey all talking about driving..
I also long time never drive n hubby dun let..coz after I pass liao not long I got preggy so nv drive. Only lately my hubby no choice drank too much wine at the wedding dinner..so I fetch my whole family back from a wedding dinner n all of them r opening their eyes big big on the road n abit abit arrrr liao..coz they say I anyhow one ..feel like sitting in a roller coaster haahha alamak..

I also dare not tell my hubby last time when I just pass, I drove opposite direction at Tanjong Pagar that road..coz misleading..end up saw cars comming towards me ..then jialat I faster do a u-turn *sweat
 
Iris,

Driving needs practice one...with practice you get better....like me last time, when i first got the driving license....i was driving a manual car, and was up on a slope going into Great World City, then there was a car infront of me which stopped half way on the slope....then i also stopped....after that, got to engage gear to drive up the slope...couldnt, so i got my friend to get off my car, and tell the car behind to go-stan.....can you imagine?? cos i scared my car will slide backwards on the slope before i got chance to engage gear....

Also got one time, got 3 men directing me to reverse park my car....so paiseh you know....

but now after so long, my driving ok liao....can even drive bb around....one hand driving, the other hand stretch behind to give bb the pacifier...haha
 
yup, practice makes perfect. but the problem is, my hubby dun wan to let me practice! also gd la, i can enjoy as a passenger and sleep.
 
wah tara, u're good.. can drive n stretch to pat pat bb too next time.. will Emma cry when u r driving? I guess when we drive we hv to be very calm esp when bb is crying..

i onie started driving 10years aft i got my license..n tat oso my dad very worried! But i never drove manual car before..except during lesson. During my driving lesson time, almost all lesson i will hv diff accident till the instructor got scared and asked me to go for my exam after 16hrs of practise.
 
this forum power, never read also dont know can use CDA to pay at PD...haha i been paying CASH all the while!!!
Tonight must go dig the pin out so can use at the next visit for jabs!

thanks mummies who mentioned can use CDA..
 
wahaha.... me took my license sometime bk 2. din hv a car to drive after my license. eventually had 2 drive one day after donkey yrs n i din noe abt d new arrow abv d usu red grn amber. so when d red arrow came on, i actally moved off thinking arrow means can go.... sweat!!

merydith! hi5!! i oso hv d driving opp direction experience!! wahaha i din realise n still wondering y so many ppl looking at me??!

tara, manual+slope spells danger sia?! Here's my saga yrs back: I was parking at bkt panjang plaza bk then n i saw alot-needs parallel park somemore... Didnt think too much besides trying to snatch a lot fast and too bad it was quite near the entrance... so i ago ahead n gostan many times still cannot go in... end up a queue of cars was behind me and the driver behind me got out out of his car offered to park for me, which he did in 2step...duh.....I was super paiseh!! I can imagine the ppl behind me saying woman mah kayu....
 
Car driving,

Paiseh to say that, I got a lazy hubby who keep delay getting an license. I told him, u better get a driving license b4 my gal go pre-school. So mad at him!

Ladies, thanks for assuring me that my mum will be fine. I dunno lor. I really cant lose my mum. Our relationship is very close, that explains why she still staying with me instead of staying with my brother.
 
kath
16hrs of driving n ask u go pratical? u must b scaring him real badly sia. =p

i tink practice makes it perfect.

jayzon used to b crying his heart out when im driving coz he wana b carried. veri noti. so i always hold hands wif him n one hand on steering. but go upslope in carpark, i need both hands. lolx.
 
Jo... not all clinic can use CDA ac to pay PD. think the clinic need to be an approved one...
mommies, pls correct me if i am wrong....
 
ypg, i ok with the price increase. so is this sunday's trial still on? My aunt had her hysterectomy done more than 15yrs ago (old technology maybe?) and she went through it fine. So i believe today's technology is more advance and your mom is not very old yet can have a faster recovery too. Jiayou!
 
dee,

Bur,
thanks for highlighting, ya i have checked with my PD-Singapore Baby Clinic at Gleneagle, they said can use. Actually during payment, they never ask us before if we want to use CDA to pay!

fabbie, the brown rice hor when u mix, how many teaspoon did u use? when u say teaspoon, it is levelled or slightly high? I read some of the mummies onie give 3 teaspoon of rice cereal a day - when i tried, is like so little n not enuf for Zach..so now he is eating like 7 teaspoon a day and then 1.5hr later drink 170ml of milk.. :p

ypg,

fabbie,
now randall start eating twice a day. One at 9am after his milk and one at 3pm. You got introduce other food?

Vege
I find my baby dun like vegetables like avocado or spinach leh..he only like banana/pumpkins/sweet potatos ..everytime i offer him the vege he will close his mouth tight tight..end up have to make the spoon sound like aeroplane gg to land then he open his mouth to laugh n I shuff it in.

Izit I offer too much sweety stuff? ANyone same experience?
 
wah merydith,

you try so many different veggies and fruits liao?

lazy mommy here havent even started on rice cereal...

btw, can i check how long we can give cough meds to bb? mine has been coughing for more than 1 week liao....dunno if it's ok to continue giving the cough meds or not....

bur...you suddenly disappeared from my msn leh...where are you??
 
Merydith,

My daughter love pumpkins too but she dun like banana puree. Cause we usually give her porridge with 1 meat n 1 vegetable so she will eat vegetables.

Santorini,

U mean ur bb cough for more than 1 week n after taking medicine still not recovering? Maybe the medicine is not effective or volume too little. I give my daughter fever medicine but end up fever still go up n down. Bring her see PD, end up we give her too little liao. We forgot that she grow up quite a bit since her last cough.
 
ypg

yeah...she cough so long already....her cough is better...but not totally gone....i brought her to see pd on sat, and she told me to continue to give her...she said can give for more than a week plus...though she didnt specify exactly what is the maximum number of days we can give...she did say not to increase dosage for the cough mixture tho'....

i also dunno how...if i should bring her back to pd...or just continue to give...
 
Merydith
My mum let her eat payaya.. banana.. next week i think my mum is going to intro fish.. she normally feed her morning cereal. then evening fruits lor.

Tara
Emma has been coughing too? is there improvement? mine also leh.. 1 week liao.. and she still havent recover totally. but now slight cough nia. hope it will disppear.. her cough med and flu finish liao and i didnt go see doc yet. as i hope she can fight the virus by her self first lor. if not another week will bring her see doc.. cus needs to go jab her 5 in 1.
 
fabbie,

best not to jab her 5 in 1 while she still coughing. can postpone the jab?

Santorini,

Sound quite bad to cough for so long. My daughter cough or flu usually recover by the 3rd day of medication. **Touchwood** Perhaps u want to see another PD?
 
fabbie

how come zy's cough med finish so fast? how many ml you give each time?

emma's one is 0.5ml each time...so it's very little...and still havent finish...

i will see how, maybe tomorrow bring her to pd...

ypg,
yeah...i dunno why take so long this time...must be becos the ifc full of viruses lah....so sianz...i complained again about Emma falling sick...then the principal told me to give Emma barley water leh....will that help? it's suppose to be cooling right? bbs get very heaty meh?
 
ypg
ya postpone to 2 weeks lor.. her injection is on 28may. so maybe 2 weeks after today lor. then go see PD see is she okai to take injection. i dun wan to drag too long on her 5 in 1. so maybe if she still cough. next week go and see. see the following week can take injection anot ba. i just pray. if not going tmc in and out. not good!

Tara
my gal med is 1.5ml leh. each feed. 1 day 3 times.
 
phyl,

rachel

jowin

Yea...it was kinda emergency when we wanted to send him to A & E hence i forgot to bring my pump along..then the following days, i was too bz taking care of him (he needed me to be beside every single second, guess becos he was not feeling well, hence need mommy to be there)...then lagi got no time to pump...sigh..

Of cos engorge la...leak somemore..but what to do..i forgot to bring my breastpads also...it was just plain chaotic...
 
Kath/Bur/Jowin - Think we meet next week for lunch bah. Next week i'm only free to meet up on either tues, wed or fri.

Jowin - Whoa, ur GM hinting to u.. Siao liao.. But seriously, when will u stop bf?

Rachel - Huh? U won't feel pain meh if didn't pump for 3 days??

U can start slowly n mix with milk already ba

Ypg.

Just came back from kkh coz bb having high fever got to rush down to kkh's a&e. Waiting down there few hours for nurse simple checking, doctor do physical check, wait for bb to pee then do urine test... finally doctor say all the test is ok, bb looks alert and active then should be fine. The fever may due to teething or flu or others ...can't give a specify answer for why got fever.

ypg,

Hi Fong2
The max BF until 1 yr old lor.
But then, regardless to the zombie-ness, i think nothin much to do with BF.. cos now i only pump 3 times.. 6am, 2pm & 10pm.

I am that sort who din sleep more than 7hrs a day, will look shack and some more , i always look pale. So nowadays how to get 7hrs of sleep.

If i pump 2pm at office, only takes about 30mins. I am sure my GM got no issue for that

Only this event, maybe i suay lor, one stupid customer come on Wed to make a huge fuss n asked why our event have not start??? Then my GM not happy liao.. N come n asked why. But in the 1st place, my manager & himself approved the date. I argued that this date are all discussed before,you approved on the date ma. He said its my fault that i did not raise up during discussion to start earlier.. HAIZ..

If he really force me to prioritize, of course, my family come 1st.. The most, i QUIT

Hi gals.
Dun Know what happened to Ashlynne these few nights. At least every night, she will wake up crying and want me to carry. As i carry, she will whine n cry too.

Just now, TWICE in a night.. 2am, 4am... i m shack out. I have to carry her n pat her back to sleep... She will wanna sleep in my arms.. before i can put her down..
sad.gif


How to be not zombie?????? I m thinking is it because she is teething???
 
dee

u tinking of taking manual or auto one?

jowin
ashlynne's behaviour could b due to teething. coz veri uncomfortable ma. juz pacify n pat her back to slp.
 
Little rabbit

jowin

jo.. wah.. your GM so horrible ah.. I agree with you la.. if gotta choose have to choose family over work.. i think you should take a break n "restore" your energy first la.. if continue like that hor.. will age very fast one.. keke.. your hubby can support u? make some sacrifices lor.. u sacrifice so much just to BF Ashlynne liao.. great that you got the determination to BF until 1yr la.. hope u wont have boob infection again..jia you jia you..

i need at least 6hrs of slp one.. but for nearly 6mths, nv sleep for more than 3hrs consecutively liao..i also very tired.. friday super zombie.. be contented that ashlynne is not sick la.. haha.. teething nia not that bad.. its super maddness to take care of a sick baby.. ashlynne just wants to be sayang-ed.. hayden block nose so must breathe with mouth.. then coughing with alot of phelgm.. sleep also not peaceful.. sigh... i have to carry him in my arms the whole nite coz he cannot sleep.. sigh...
