Don't want to wait around. Some Feb or even March mommies are going to give birth liao...

 
ST: I think for Philippinos they increased a few months back [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/sad.gif] the recent one is for Indo ones rite?

 
kekke say abt camera hor we got bring leh but think hubby too execited and nervous until the nurses have to ask him to take out the camera LOL

 
ST,

hahah my HB also he too nervous end up when the nurse tell him nv take the time ah den late by 1 min haha....



Pink,

ya if u got time can get ready early la.. usu 1mth in advance is gd..

 
piggy: yah I'm very kiasu will get ready early early hehe. Don't let to do things last min then 手忙脚乱 =) if we give birth around 37-38 weeks then 1 month in adv is very soon! Ard 32-33 weeks can stand by! hehehe I really want to see the finish line soon.

 
piggy: excellent idea!! I'm more interested to see his face... all new borns' faces look the same lar... i don't think Parsley will look very exciting

 
piggy

wow the nurses so good will ask him to take time mine never leh..then i told hubby this time round must take the time..he say don't think he can react so fast cos he want to focus on bb



pink

ya and my hubby face got turn pale leh..even the nurse noticed that and ask if he is ok LOL

 
ST,

ya i tink MT A nurse quite nice.. i remember TMC cannot take pic inside labour room rite??? tt wat i was told when i go for the tour wor...



Pink,

ya new born look alike but still can tell la..

n the pic will be v precious leh keke.. it the first moment parsley arrived this world[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif] but if u c-sect ur HB will acc u in also??

 
st: machiam he gave birth and lost blood hor.. wahaha.. so hilarious. I really wonder what goes through their minds too... I think I'd be freaked if I see so much blood and gory details :p

 
Pink,

hahah actually for natural birth we dun get to see much leh jus got a shock when the nurse suddenly out of no where dump the bb on my thighs loL~

 
piggy: yah he will go in also lor... since I'll do epidural not GA. First, I must convince my gynae that's what I wanna do. LOL.



Ok lar, I don't feel like it's very special or anything. Lotsa newborns arrive everyday every minute every second. Wahaha. Nothing spectacular for me. Sometimes I feel sad to bring her to this world even, so much suffering and cruelty. Oops.

 
ST,

dunno leh cos durin the tour the guides told us after we deliver they will bring bb out to take weight n measurement tt where the daddy take pic... no photo takin in the room wor.. cos for Mt A all done in a room so dun even have to move ard...



Pink,

hahha it special becos it ur baby... [IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

i tink seein ur own bb n others the feelin is diff bah.. til now i will stil occassionally took out the pic when he was born to see how much diff he look haha..

 
kailee,

Doing biomedical research stuff..Hehe!! But ya very tempted to go into teaching too.. Last time after graduating wanted to go into teaching but didn't like the fact that I cannot take leave whenever I want.. Must wait till school hols.. but now think about it.. teaching is actually want of the most family oriented occupation.. I know the fertility rate amongst teachers quite high.. Hehe!!



Piggy, pink,

Actually during labour, the hb got quite a lot of things to do.. First must hold wife's hands and tell wife that she is doing a good job, 2nd must make sure bb coming out smoothly, 3rd, have camera handy... Not easy wor.. My hb lucky manage to cut Lisa's cord and take quite a no. of unglam shots of both Lisa and me!! Haha!!



st,

So cute.. both you and hb turn pale..Hehe!! Must be the shock of a newborn!! =)

 
piggy

funny hor i got take leh..even my friend also got take..maybe what they meant is during the delivering process bah..

ya one thing good abt Mount A is that everything is done in the ward..

 
Gerry

for me my face turn pale after the delivery cos lost too much blood liao

 
Gerry

good leh ur hubby react fast to take so many pics..my hubby once foucs on the bb..his mind can't think of other things liao

 
st,

Haha!! I think he not use to the bloody mess.. Lucky he never faint.. I heard some hb actually go weak in their knees and need to sit down..My hb told me the floor was messy and filled with my blood.. Sounds quite gross..

 
Good afternoon!!!! Exhausted!!!! My son super duper hyper active, sooooooo tired... -_-"



Bought 2 dresses at Metro for CNY, happy!!!!!! Think my kitty makes me vain, grow until so old the 1st year I keep looking out dresses for CNY, and so lucky I got it!!!!! Cheap and got my size some more.... Hahahahaha... S$36.90 for 2, cheap till siao...

St,

But they are super unglam shots!! Lucky he never accidently take pics of downthere when bb coming out..

My friend told me her boss was very proud of his wife and actually videotaped the whole birthing process from down under and actually showed the video to some of his colleagues!!!! I think I would faint if my hb did that!! I so really don't want to see the crowning!!!

 
wah..tks pinky dear...[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]

gerry,

oh..icic...wah..biomedical shld be quite similar to academic no?

ya..this will be a v diff jump..will consider it carefully.



hahaha..u all bery funny...my hubby afraid of blood..i wonder if he is able stay "awake" to cut the cord n take pics...he also cannot really multi task one...wahahahaha

 
Piggy, today my boi vaccination mah.... Have been torture by him since 6.30am... He tried to woke me up sharp sharp... I just nua n nua... Bodyache leh... He slept liao we still do cleaning, so chiam.... Hahaha...



ST, I remember we are not allow to take pic in labour room wor if deliver @ TMC... Was ur bb being clean outside the labour room?

 
hippo: what's wake u up sharp sharp? wahaha. read until blur~~~ heh Jovie is a sweet name!



Gerry: think in Asia our culture is still quite conservative. Probably in the more westernized countries they are really open about such things... and the thing is i think for me my hubby is the conservative one! When I wear something revealing he's the first one to make noise and if I zao geng he will cover me up. So if I tell him to video the process I don't think he'll be ok with showing it to people :p

With regards to the teaching industry, no leh I don't think it's really family oriented either. I have many teacher friends whose bosses are not understanding or family focused. Depends on the school culture and how the principal manages the school. Have heard of many female teachers who couldn't conceive+ suffer many miscarriages coz their jobs are too stressful and the hours are too long. Alot of them are overworked and underpaid too. Almost all my teacher friends reach their schools before sun rise and leave only after sun set. Oh, and it's not true that they have such long holidays. Usually for Sept and March they will be called back to schools for meetings and will barely have any leave. Then June and Dec, usually first and last weeks will be back to school for meetings and extra classes too. Given that they can't take normal leaves on normal days, it's quite a fair compromise that maybe they will get a few days more than our regular 21 days of annual leaves. But most people have the misconception that they really have holidays every 3 months.

 

hmm we still have not think of our #2 name...



Hippo

so u gg TMC or Mount A kekke



Kai_lee

ya my hubby also can't multi task de
