Gals!
Sorry lah. I posted on Sat.. then disappeared again.
Basically, the reason I disappeared for a while was because I was (1) too busy & (2) a bit depressed.
Busy.. Coz Sam has been walking since 10.5 mths! That was like 2-3 steps. Then 1 week later, it was 7 steps. Then at 11mths, he was really walking! Now he's running n occasionally trying to climb onto the table, sofa, etc. Very very dangerous! Plus got to cook his porridge.. make his milk.. feed him.. wash his butt after pooing.. (HE STILL POOS like 2 - 4 times a day!!!!!) And he's so crazily active & strong that it takes 2 pple to bathe him, wash his butt, change his diaper etc! I've been so busy & tired chasing after him that I just have no 'mood' to log in. I just wanna 'stone' at the end of the day.
2nd reason.. My FIL works at home now. So I can't use his study room computer anymore. No computer = no chatting on forum liao
3rd reason.. I was a bit depressed. The maid that we were supposed to take (my grandparent-in-law's maid whom is of quite gd character n my ILs can get along with) decided not to return from Indonesia at the last minute! I was supposed to be back at work on Mon. She went home for a long vacation, was supposed to return in July, but called n delayed coz her daughter had an accident. Then we couldn't contact her for the longest time till early Aug. And finally when the agent found her.. she said she doesn't wanna come! And nopw our deposit is with the agent.. the agent says it's very hard top get Indo maid till after Puasa.. so I had to extend my leave for another few mths. I was looking forward to go back to work too
Another reason for the depression.. My FIL gave me black face for a while. Guess I'm not the easiest person to live with. I use a lot of water, am slow to pick up the mess, n eat a lot! And my ILs are rather particular.. That's in addition to minor conflicts with MIL on what to feed Sam etc etc.
And of course, my eczema problem. All the washing up makes my hands crack like siao. They hurt n itch terribly. I've started using gloves but they only help a little. After all, I do have to wash my hands before I feed Sam, after I go to the toilet, etc etc right? How to avoid washing totally??? I can't throw the meal dishes to my ILs to wash too right?
I can't go out to do any shopping or massage or facial or exercise coz paiseh to throw Sam to the ILs. I dun really wanna exercise or do facial lah.. but I do need my massage n retail therapy! Unfortunately Sam's too fidgety to bring anywhere by myself.
On top of that, I was still pumping 2x a day till about 2 weeks before Sam's bday. All my free time for when Sam actually does sleep will be spent on pumping. I stopped totally after his bday n that gave me some much needed rest! I got a fright when he was refusing FM for w while but he's ok now, I guess. I noticed that FM seems to be less filling then BM. He needs to drink more, & he gets hungrier.
Anyway.. enough of complaints. Here I am.. stuck at my ILs' home till the maid comes. That will be anothers et of problems. but I do so needa break!!!!!

Can I just check what's ur baby's feeding schedule like? I've recently split Sam's breakfast into 2 coz he needs more food yet can't eat that much at one go..
730am - 200ml FM
8/830am - half a slice of bread with butter/small cube of cheese, or some biscuits
930/10am - the other half of his breakfast
12pm - porridge (ard 1.5 rice bowls - pork or sometimes chkn or beef with 1 veg)
2pm - a bit of fruit
315pm - 200ml FM
6pm - porridge (1.25 rice bowls - fish with potato)
845/9pm - 200ml FM
How does this look? The schedule is a bit off sometimes but roiughly it's like this.
Sam doesn't eat anything other than mashy porridge. No pasta or whatnot coz MIL says he can't digest. I'm quite tired of the same old fare. She thinks I'm over protective by not letting him taste whatever not from her plate. But it's the hygiene I'm worried abt.. not the food per se. But how to say out loud??? Depressed all over again.. haha

Thanks pal! I swing between optimism & pessimism lah. I'm hoping the arrival of the maid will smooth things over
bobo
Erm.. hard to explain. My ILs are quite nice pple. I like to think that I'm not a bad person too. But I guess when pple of different personality & background & opinions are thrown together for long periods of time, things start to get a bit frayed.
Dun misunderstand that I'm having a terrible time at my ILs'. On the whole, I know there are pple with 'real' IL probs. Just that many little unhappy things add up to big things lor? It's easier to maintain good relationship when u're not seeing one another too often u know?

jul:: i totally understand wat u mean on your ILs.... dat's y im so not looking forward to shifting in with them in time to come! cos i tink im not a 'see open' person.. n will pick on small tings (esp done by them).. but yet i cant voice out much.. n i will eventually fall into 'pit' too!
anyways... hope your maid prob will be settled in no time.. n everything will be in place.. u can return to work... n ya.. cm in more n chat with all la!

oh jul, keep it positive, open minded.

jul, hang in there. Totally understand how hard it is looking after an active toddler with no me-time. Plus if there are also family relationships to handle, it becomes even more tricky. I feel bad to admit it, but I actually looked forward to going back to work during my SAHM days...
Sharon, thanks, will look out for the package, and bring it on Sat with scotch tape.
Donkeymami, I should be able to arrive 12+ to help so that can put the banner from Sharon up.

Yeah! Ironically I'll prob have more time to chat when I'm back at work

Oh u also got eczema prob? What's Amway dishwashing liquid? Nvr seen it in NTUC before. Maybe Fri I go get from u to try? Thanks so much!
mich
I no longer feel bad abt looking forward to gog back to work. I know I'll miss Sam, but I've concluded that I may be a better mummy if I dun have to see him 24h. He really is a handful!
He can drag a 5kg bad of rice on the floor! (no doubt with some difficulty)
Well, I also need the $$
Hubs wants me to stay home, but we can't live on his salary alone. And I am gog bonkers with my ILs. Maybe I'll feel differently with the maid here n I stay home with her, rather than gog to 'dat care' at my ILs, but we can't afford to stay home with a maid!

oh dear, hope u are feeling better now. It's true that Xiang chu rong yi, tong zhu Nan. Boys tend to eat more (except mine). Is he also bigger and heavier? I think there's a boy in jul also started walking early. Now he is running! Also ate a lot and big size. Maybe u try to make his porridge coarser? With some chewy bits?

did u put the hydrocortisone for your eczema? Mine also comes and goes and it helps to relieve the itch and heal faster. Of course u also need to use a less harsh detergent.
