Hi all,
Confinement month has been a breeze for me. My hb was taking leave for 3 weeks and he's very hands on with the kids. I don't have confinement nanny but only rely on my maid to cook the confinement food. There are times when I frustated, tired and almost want to ask doc prescription for 'happy pill', and feel like throwing all the milk bottles and the pump out from the window...but after Nathan give me his- Lee Min Ho- smile, I'm ok all over again. I try to tell myself to be positive and feel contented on what you have. Simple things like welcoming hb from work at 7pm with bubble tea on hand, is enough to make my day!
well, staying at home with 3 kids is really no joke. Although I have maid. Good thing is I shed the first 8kg already! The things that keep me insane are online shopping and numerous lunch dates and visits by girlfriends. Also, waiting for the brown uniform man (UPS!) get me excited. hehehe...
Silvia, I think I have missed out your post about Gareth. Hope he's fine now!
There are a few places to bring our little one but with lots of bugs around, try to bring to outdoor.
1. Jacob ballast Children Garden: got waterplay, just some little fountains, suitable for their age and playground for bigger toddler.
2. Science Centre, the ground in the waterplay area is padded.
3. Vivocity playground
4. Sentosa- Pahlawan beach area
5. Singapore Zoo
6. West coast Park, the sandy area where the playground is.
7. Botanic garden
where else?
Indoor: Fidget, Gogo Bambini, and even those free ones like the one in Paragon, or Jushinjung restaurant.
Noelle, I think the sleeping issue is caused by teething....my gal just cut her bottom molars and now the 4 top mollars together. That's cause her sleeping pattern and eating changed. But she still manage to keep her morning nap as I always bring her out to play or ride in her car to tire her out.
I also just got the hyland teething tablet ordered from US. After the recall, I tried to email the merchant for a refund but being refused and ask to dispose the item away. Damn. Waste my money!
pinky, if you want to go fidget on weekdays, avoid to go after 3pm, this is the time when kids from international school crowd the place. On weekends is usually morning crowd. If that kind of thing happen, approach the staff to pull away the kid because the older kids are not supposed to go into the little fidget area. if that also fail then talk to the parents.
