hi jasc,
i'm staying very near tampines safra bedok and bedok sheng siong, along bedok reservoir rd.
our edd's are v close. where are u doing ur confinement?
shers,
u're in week 34? but ur edd is 9 may? mine is 4th may and i'm delivering @ glen E too. mebbe we'll bump into each other! my next check up is 31 Mar.
bout MILS,
before i got married, i hardly spent time with my hubby's family. 6 mths after we got married, i got preggie and ofcourse my ILs were clamouring for a boy coz my hub was the only son.
i got so mad @ my MIL when she commented, "its ok,try again" after we found out we were expecting a girl. our r'ship got quite bad when she moved in during the confinment period.
i guess it took me a while to get used to her. the transition was not easy as i got preggy so soon after marriage since i am not that young anymore.
it also used to piss me off that my girl resembled her ALOT! imagine suffering for 9 mths and having ur baby look like ur MIL??!!!
but my hub takes after his mother alot, so no choice lah...hahaha...now, i get along with her v well and she has also accepted that the family line will end with my hub coz there is no way that i am gonna try for a boy. both hub and i are happy with our 2 girls and we have "brainwashed" her to accept also
i am now beginning to appreciate my MIL more lah since i have now gotten to know her a little better...after becoming a mother myself, i started to see things in a diff light and well, i would say that i do love her alot now, as much as i love my mum...but things were so different 2 years ago!!!
