Hi Angelina,



Can you pm me. I like to check with you on your maid. Cos I just return my mum's maid to my agent too. Just took her for less than 2 mths. Now got to forfeit my agent fees of about $800,pay maid 1more mth salary n 1more mth of maid levy. Does yours work this way too?

Thank you.

 
Angelia, I also padang one! I wanna go temple and baibai but my MIL say I must wait till 40 days! She said my hubby and I cannot go baibai 'cause we are not humans but a pool of blood in front of the deities! I was like...HUH??!? What rubbish....



Jaime, yah my colleagues are using maids from Burma..not bad...I'm also considering them...but not so soon...



Rach, thanks! Just bought prune juice to try. Your lump still painful or not? I have some lumps here and there when breasts r full but after pumping, they will be okay...

 
Lailai : eh? What your mil mean "a pool of blood?" =.=" or is she trying to tell you that you just gave birth so sort of "dirty" ? Why she make it sooo funny? Pool of blood? =\ never hear

Shirley: got stalls selling japan brands diapers, not very cheap though, then stalls selling clothes like what we can find at Bp. Hiap guan metal kiosk, aprica kiosk, bb hyPermart, munchkin, pupsik, some other small small stalls, sell accessories like diaper clutch, skip hop stuff. Then parklon mat and another brand, combi, pureen etc..

Can go if u just wanna c c look look la.. But it's almost the same everytime..

Hubby suggested to drop by after breakfast Ma, so we brought both there and luckily kiefer and kyler both very cooperative, both zzz while we shop

 
Jaime: my maid is okie for now. Just that she very free everyday afternn till night all alone at home surf internet. We haven't ask her take care of baby yet and also no ask her to cook. I only trust my own cooking but I'm simply too tired to go and do marketing. That's why sometimes I see liao also sianz. Like having a 闲人 in the house. My maid 38 only is already ah ma liao so she needs this job to support her grandson. For now she's still okie, if she ever let me catch her do anything wrong. Off she goes and I will have excuse to bar my maids from my house forever! I dunno whether to see another PD or wait for the KKH appt to get the 2nd opinion. Consultation fees not cheap also. The KKH surgeon see liao also consider 2nd opinion rite?



Angelia: when u go pray pray, rem to take the some flowers home to bathe ur baby. Take more can keep in fridge.



Eh... my maid ah ask my HB to pay her salary at the beginning of the month instead of end of month. Got any mommies here that does that?

 
Lailai: ur MIL veri funny loh... pool of blood?? nvr hear before... mi mum onli say i am "dirty" whenever i having menses so cannot go temple...



Jaime, 2ks, pixie: mi also same generation, mi 79, but i feel tat u all r much more mature n noe much more than mi :p mi like noe lesser than young first time mummies like angelia n fel... still a lot to learn...



todae hb looking after bb at home while i go salon colour mi hair... at orchard now n i feel like myself again! [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] tomolo full month party... yeah!

 
Limlim - What? E.g. March's pay supposed to give on 31st march, change to give on 1st April lor...



Don't give them advance pay... later run away or what...



Since she want to be paid beginning of the month, u do it this way lor.. like 1-2 days difference only ma..

 
limlim: thk e kkh surgeon can consider as second opinion but mayb more ex? hope he will give u better advice! ur bb's lump is at where?

last nite mi also discovered a lump on mi bb n quite worried. e lump is at between the leg n hip, must open diaper then can c de... mi hb ask mi to go gp first, dunno whether to go gp or pd leh... any good pd to recommend in east/central area?

 
Jaime

I heart my MIM sling....i feel its better than pupsik...no offense to pupsik owners here...coz i can adjust the height of the "cradle"... I can turn it to a storage place at my shoulders, even if it comes with a zippered section for handy storage...i can shape the cloth to a neck rest, a sun shade...wah lao...endless way to play around the cloth leh!

 
lump on the left side found in btw the line at the hip there ah can be due to the BCG injection... tat time my PD asked me to touch then i realise got one lump there lor...



pixie,

i peifu u lor... seriously, i think if i'm to try the MIM sling ah... i surely go bonkers liao!!! dunno why after birth my brain like darn slow like that...

 
Straylamb

Me n 2ks n jaime got 2kids so of coz more experienced...when u have 2kids naturally u will be more stretch compared to having just one child so u will be experienced too! The time will come one lah...just a matter of how fast we individuals reach that particular stage lor

 
Jaster

Coz we have too many things to remember!!..seriously pregnancy dun retard us leh...

U want to try my spare mim sling u let me know lah...i ask my maid to wash it nicely today liao...tmr i meeting my fren in orchard n i will be slinging bb out too! 可以的！

 
Im soooooooooooobored at home! If i can go out everyday then shiokz...oredi planning n asking my friends out for the next long weekend liao leh....am i bonkers?!



I not the sort to stay at home kind seriously

 
SN, before we have #1, we gave MIL $800, HB increased it to $1200 after that.. I asked him why, he said have to give her according to infant care rate, have to let her 'earn' for her effort... we are not big company loh, dont know why he think that way.. Ya, i ever asked MIl why she dressed my son in socks even when he at home, she said she liked children wearing socks, can prevent mosquitos and look 'neat', she dont like kids wearing slippers, like untidy.. *faint*.. that's how rigid she is..



opps, sorry lilprecious & limlim, my bad for mixing you up.



Fel, I already now got 3 of the side efforts for the rod, - acne, weight gain , breast changes, so although itching to put IUD, think I will need to find other alternatives..Sigh, does mirena has these effects as well?

 
jaime: i choose maids so far ok leh. all not bad. My MIL choose maids on the other hand like _______. This new maid I chose tat just came now not bad, machiam like got free landscaper now. She makeover the entite garden!! Btw DO NOT TAKE BURMA/MYAMMER MAIDS!!



Lin: no wonder u early morning msg me, our sleep sheep is coming!! yay!!

jaster: the bcg lump is supposed to b in front or behind? there is one lump on left buttock, then there is also one lump in front between left leg n hip...



pixie: mi also using MIM! got so mani ways to use mehhh? still not v sure how to use, onli sling once when going for bb's jab :p

 
Pixie: I also realized my memory sucks big time nowadays.. One moment remember the next second csm forget.. I can even forget what I wanna say man..

Jaime, I thought I also given up on Pupsik that time, but when I have no other sling or carrier and need to go out, I just force myself to keep trying Bb in Pupsik until now I'm okay with it liao. But I nv really put my Bb in Pupsik the way the video teaches. I anyhow put my boy in. As long as he is okay n doesn't fuss then to me is success Liao n I just leave house like that. Haha... Dunno when my Maunduca carrier arrives I will still use my Pupsik anot. One thing I dislike abt Pupsik is that I cannot sling for long coz very stress on my back, backache leh!!



Pixie, I also dun like to stay at hm type, my friend always say I pa pa zhao..



Hey, u wanna go orchard shop with me?? I wanna go orchard but scare can't manage Bb. But now got Pupsik easier coz Bb will sleep longer in it than stroller.. But if go orchard still must push stroller ah Bo my shoulder n back will break!

Mummies, do ur babies get frightened easily? Mine can be 20-30 times a day. Within a 3 hr slp can wake up every 10 mins or so. Y lik tt? There's no way she or us can get a good slp. I really duno y she get so frightened easily n duno the most effective way to calm her down. Only way is to carry her, but I feel it's becoming a habit of carrying.
