Cyn,
I quit my job to take care of my boy, hope to go rejoin the work force once my boy stable down and maid is familiar with what she's required to do.
My boy is 4 mths 14 days old. He has been super cranky ever since he came back from his jab recently. He didnt got fever but he was down with runny nose and cough from his cousin when we went visiting. Whole day wants to be hugged. Can see that he felt irritated from his runny nose but brought him to see pd, my pd said he's too young to take any medication and can only heal on its own unless its very blocked, then bring him over to the clinic for dripping some solution inside the nose.
My myanmar maid..initially when she first came, she was very hardworking and a fast learner. She was on pretence..later on..she showed her true colors. when we're not around, she actually finished all my food, chocolate, cookies, juices, honey in the house. She wipped out my entire fridge!! She was so lazy and wash things alway so unclean..baby clothes, hankies wash until so smelly! Clean baby stuffs also strands of her hair present. Sterilise soothers and bottles also not clean. Showed her how to do things, she actually followed initially then later on she do her own pattern! So dirty! She boiled my milk bottles and soothers!! she use the table cloths to wipe my milk bottles! No wonder alway got one strange smell until i caught her in the act. She loves to tell lies...! things obviously didnt do, like to argue with u that she got do..alway give u reason like wind blow..(her hair, dust, on the milk bottle brush)..ask her wash again, do again! When ure not looking, she will wipe her hands on her clothes before making milk for baby. Got one time, i caught her blowing her hand, she told me she is blowing dry her hand as i told her her hands must be dry before touching my milk powder! She alway make the whole table covered with milk powder! attract many ants and i told her i will make her pay for the milk powder if she dont make properly. Btw, she is destroyer man, so must be careful when they handle ur things as they dont like to ask!! so must really monitor them! ever since she came, many things spoil in the house! my baby towel, hankies can also wash until torn!! my baby bed can also clean until it became white color, initially was blue! the pot use to sterilise baby bottles can wash until like blur! Many things!! i m also first time hiring maid! They r so pretentious! When ure not around, think next time she will finish all my son food! i think she really pinches my son, but i didnt see her in action but i saw the blue black on my son's thighs is gone as initially my hubby asks me if they r birth marks? So many things to say abt maid, one night also cannot finish...haha
Zuen,
Yup, abusive maids r scary! its hard to get a really good one who treat our kids like their own. to them, after all, they are doing their job, no obligated to do anything further than that.
Beauty seet,
Though my boy is down with fever and cough but his appetite remains the same only more fussy and cranky.
Starry,
Should have read ur post earlier on!! I just open the tin of frisocreme and added one tablespoon though the guide says 3 to my boy's milk as realise he cant really sleep through recently, he's hungry at night! I tested after feeding, it's really sweet for a baby! Think i will get organix and i shall drink the frisocreme on my own. I just fed my boy shark fins soup today and he loves it! Brought him to have valentines' day dinner together. My boy is very impatient, really cannot stand him until i gave him a dressing down today! I told my maid not to carry him. Realised every time go to my mil place, our maid will carry him as got nothing to do and when he got back home, he always whine to be carried and he even know how to call his 'jie jie'(maid) i scolded him today, not knowing if he understand but after that he stopped crying,smiles and went to bed. It's so hard to take care of him now when we got a maid, realy dont wish to spoil him.
Shin,
I'm also excited to feed my boy's solid and reading up and learning what kind of baby food can i make for my baby. Thought of making sweet potatoes puree for him since he loves mashed potatoes so much..erm..my boy doesnt have a sweet tooth, so far he reject all the sweet stuff, he likes bitter and tastier stuff. He had pandan cake and banana cake too.
Great, i m so keen to try the calendular bubble baths, but there so many type of bubble baths!
