baby bride...



actually babies dont need all new times..some item due to hygiene and safety need to get new..ie cot, baby car seat etc..unless u trust the source who gave u the item

some got hand me down its also good..coz baby stuff not cheap lor..

 


babybride: just take whatever the uncle give u, then dont want just throw away...

things still can buy and shop ah...



i also have alot of arguments with my mum previously. she suppose to do confinement for me, end up after i discharge, she cant help at all, she keep saying she not feeling well, imagine i was washing clothes on the day i was discharged!



even quarrelled a few times with her during confinement, end up cried until almost depression and then now i know my degrees increased lor!



so now i learn to let go...its her mouth, she can say whatever she wants, but to do or to listen or not, IT is MY CHOICE!

 
babybride, guess your mum is also as anxious lah!



'hong' her a bit tonight lah! then during good times then tell her you ideal arrangment, sometime late Dec, sould be fine, by then we are alr almost 7 months!



In fact my mum & auntie also pantang, say I can only take the cot & stuff after 7 months. Whatever lah!.... listen to them (1 ear in & out) can liao lor!

 
babybride, i think old clothes ok lei. They grow so quickly and u'll be pleased with how much u can save from using old clothes when they outgrow. Can get some nice ones for outings or dinners lor.

 
babybride: my MIL told me sternly (actually it sounded more like warn) not to buy any new clothes, toys, blah blah cos she wants me to take them from my SIL. It's no point arguing with her, so I just one ear in, one ear out. Take everything that my SIL gives me, filter out those that I don't want, and buy whatever I want! haha. It's mainly to give my hubby face too, cos I don't want him to be caught in btw. You might want to consider that.



My MIL gave me a good scolding when she found that we would need to pay $2K for the CL. Its the std rate nowadays but she exclaimed why so exp and she can find one easily for $1K. She kept insisting that I move in with her and she'll do my confinement for me (while she take care of 2 hyperactive kids at the same time). I rejected her cos I wanted to have peace during confinement. She wasn't happy and said why my SIL could do it, and I can't. She finally backed off after my SIL told her that she regretted moving in for her confinement cos the house was constantly crowded and noisy. *I secretly thanked my SIL for coming to my rescue*



Sorry for the loooong post. Morale of the story: if possible, try to one ear in, one ear out. It will help you to retain some sanity :p

bb-bride

I can feel for u. I also haf a mum that did nt help me but gave me unnecessary stress thru out my previous pregnancy. I've learn to ignore her this time ard n not let her affect me too much. Best is to make plans for ur confinement n bb stuff urself n take her advises with a pinch of salt. If she insist u take hand me downs. U take la but throw one side or secretly throw away. so cheer up

Hi All!!



Busy busy monday.... hate it!!



Went swensons for lunch but gave the ice-cream a miss cos the rest of my colleagues not having... so sad... think BB wanted the ice-cream she keep kicking me after that...



Airmez -Shiok to the max!!!!!

 
BBaidan: I got the lambskin black jumbo. Very stressed and fustrated with work, tat's explains the impulse spree... siongzz.. -_-"

 
Tres: thinking to buy the summer flap (black patent)... I cant carry off the chain around cruise series, too much metal going on.. hobo very soft, and the chain around maxi too big. I think got smaller size, but the SA very blur, and i got impatient waiting..

 
AirMez, you so shiok leh... Stress can buy so many bags... How I wish I can too. Hahaha.. I'm still aiming my chanel bag which I think will be a very very long way to go... Thinking if I should get the smaller size since jumbo looks abit big for shopping. Btw, how much you bought for the jumbo? LV which one you got? I saw the new "delightful monogram" and it's catching my eyes leh...

 
Chen: yah, super shiok... i'm still hyperventilating... Today when my boss nagging at me again, i just ran the images of bags over her face... very effective. Think she must be thinking I'm crazy for smiling in a daze while she issuing me work.. hohoho!!

 
Annie: Thanks alot. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



AirMez: 4 bags you got! OMG. Envy (*.^)

HI all!



Shd be new to this thread!

I was scrolling down the earlier thread and realised for some mummies here at 23-25weeks ur baby already weight at least 500gram???



Mine at think around 20 weeks only max 300 grams but my dr never give me any alert wor.... errrr... does that mean my bb super duper small?



It's my 1st bb.

 
Annie: i big sized mah, so jumbo looks okay on me.. Jumbo single flap S$5350. LV - i was considering Alma Vernis (but scared of scratches), Artsy/Delightful w zips (Soo big, hard to carry over shoulder), verona (but hubby dun like). In the end, i got an old design - galliera. Ehh... this round i got all shoulder bags!

 
2Ks: bo leh... i sibei failure leh, din manage to train my ah lau. Sigh, finally met my match. Last time, so easy to kedok my exes, yet the man i marry i cant.. 难道是报应？？ Anyway, i intend to destress by having the spree, if wait by the time he gives me a bag, i think i die faster.... He doesnt believe in bags one... KNS.

 
Airmez - haha... everytime I have big purchases I also hope CC company will forget abt my bill... now I lamenting on a GUCCI wallet to match my bag hehe... wondering to get short or long wallet cos my current blue label kena stain sad...



aaa - drool... think later after work I shld go hm and buy a oreo mcflurry as compensation to BB...

 
xiaofeizhu: short wallet will end up very thick, if u, like me, got many cards and doesnt clear wallets very freqently. Of course, depend on the types of bags u carry. If u like me, always have to lug a 'water basin'-sized handbag around, then can throw in a long wallet... Happy SHOPPING!!!!!!



YIPPEEEE!!

 


airmez: so envious of u! but we are in the same boat, our hubby don't believe in buying bags. haha, i got to buy everything myself, if not my mum/MIL will buy for me. [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]



hazel: i'm not sure which kenny rogers also. maybe can check with lilprecious or rach.
