hi bonbon, so shack arh.....sian rite....my coy oso, juz got merger, and wanna me to learn the new acquisition coy's things....+ add on my boss portfolio + my current things....so angry, my current thing already need take laptop back and work on every nites.....
i quickly go find a new job and lucky found one the new boss very supportive say he got a 2 yrs old boy so he fully understand, and say as long as its family issue, as me juz go and take leave to settle. told me this postition not much OT too... really hope so & looking fwd to the new start next mth. if i continue to slog at this current coy, i have so little time for jonas n like u, no time to do research on making purees / starting solids.....
i still need to fetch jonas back every nite on time (cant stay back for OT) and bath him + make him sleep....no one to help me at nite. hubby on nite shift, if hubby on day shift, come back oso 10pm le, jonas would have been sleeping then. only after jonas sleep then i can bath n eat dinner. wonder how i can survive if there is bb no.2...

rose, u bringing justin to public pool or pte pool? can bring to public pool at 6mths?

so cute your baby!
i also want to take passport pic for my bb but haven't got down to it yet..

<font color="ff0000">baby_mummy</font>
i understand how u feel completely.. i would be pissed too if my boss says tat lor..

sigh, i think really not easy being a working mother..
just this morning, i asked my boss if can take 1 day off this Wed for my bb's vaccination (i've been taking 1 day every mth for her jabs)..
even though my boss is very nice but she doesn't have kids herself and my whole team no kids, i can tell she doesn't quite understand why i need to take leave..
she says why i dun bring baby on Sat instead and dun waste my leave...
i say Sat very crowded and anyway, i can use CCL..
u know wat she say? she say cannot.. she say tat is only when baby is sick.. i was like.. huh, is it? i tot CCL means can take anytime..
aiya, sian lar.. i hv to take annual leave just cos she isn't familiar with all these things and i don't want to push the case also..
i wish i worked for a boss with kids.. in fact, my boss, boss's boss and boss's boss's boss all no children!

sorry mummies for ranting, but i dun think people without babies will understand if i 'complain' to them abt this.. so hv to come in here to rant..

<font color="ff3399">marie, still have alot haha.. got brown, hot pink, baby pink, baby blue, and yellow.. how many u need u sms me ba.. then i go ask my MIL how much her costs. sell cheap cheap lelong lelong


lovj, must look straigh n see the baby features, then color exposure must be equal, cannot have shadow on one side of face etc.. , baby head shd fill up majority of pic, just show neck and shoulers will do. backgrd color can use photoshop edit and brighten the white..

sh.. u lucky found a new job with understanding boss! all the best wor.. my boss has 3 kids also like that.. main caregiver always mummy so male boss sometimes cannot comprehend also.. </font>

eunice &amp; Rose,
I was researching for my preggy gf a month back, went Bt Batok West Mall and saw the Maclaren Techno XT at Tom &amp; Stephanie. 2008 model going for $388, 2009 model for $428. Plus you get the T&amp;S lifetime membership card, 10% discount. The Tiong Bahru Plaza T&amp;S store is very big too, so if West Mall is too far for you all, can check out Tiong Bahru. The one at Civic Centre at Woodlands is quite small so don't advise you all to go there. West Mall one is the biggest!


baby_mummy,
I can understand your feeling. Sometimes these bosses just don't understand that when they show more understanding and empathy twds us, we are even more willing to work harder for them. My VP allowed me to break my maternity leave during the June hols and even gave me a lot of advice on childbirth, I was very grateful and even sent her an email to thank her! Previously I had 2 single bosses who refused to grant me marriage leave cos mine was during the busy exam period, my tears fell when I was talking to them. Now to me, family is the most important, whatever it is, just don't put all these to heart. Enjoy your trip.


bonbon,
Your job sounds really demanding! Maybe can explore switching to another job so that you can have more time for yourself and family if the prospects aren't great too?

ow_mummy,
hehe you so smart huh... actually you are right in doing that, we girls ought to have some si1 fang2 qian2!

bonbon, hope this new job is not a pirate ship...hahah....

my new boss is a male leh, maybe he is a committed dad tats why he can understand. those that leave wife to do everything one cant understand. i set out my requirements straight at the start during interview, telling him i cant do much oT cos of newborn bb... actually i told every interviewers that and most of them turn off when they hear this. govt is trying to promote birth and they dont know many pte coys out there are expecting staff to do OT. how to cope, not all coys are like govt coys so pro-family.......

tats why upon hearing that this new boss can accept my family commitments, then i got not much request for other aspects in the job. he can still tell me during interview: 1st have family then have company (in chinese).....

Every weekend I don't know where to bring bb... so end up mostly staying home..
