Michelle: The post natal blues is bad hor? I have it about 1 week too... don't know why abit feel like crying when I'm usually a v positive & bubbly person. Bb cry I can also cry. Immediately when I reach home I quarelled with my own mom bcoz she's so naggy! Luckily she was on leave for a few days & thereafter she left me alone with CL & maid. I think PS food court got this yummy Indo food always long q. Not sure if it's still there or not as I seldom go PS as it's always v crowded & I feel got nothing to buy ;p

BB: Ya same here! People in the bus just stare at my tummy... today I don't have 9am meeting so I waited for 2nd bus, praying that it's not crowded but still crowded lor. No choice had to dangle in the bus carrying 2 boxes of mooncakes for my office. My mom made the mooncakes so I brought to office before my greedy maid finishes all of it!

Daisy: Your 2 boys easy to take care huh? My gal is a "monster" since she's born. hahaha... Her cries v loud de & aft birth I can hear her crying from the nursery which is 4 rooms away from my room! When I brought her to see PD in the 1st week, a mummy in the clinic asked me whether I gave birth in TMC & stayed in level 5... bcoz she was my next door neigbour & can recognise my bb cries!!! The next day after I was discharge from hospital, some of my neighbours came to visit me bcoz they could hear my bb crying so loud so they knew I pop liao lor!! Bb has colic a few wks aft birth & she will start to cry from 11pm till 3am. I have to keep carrying & rocking her to sooth her. So I permanently slept in the living room during my ML so that my hubby can have proper sleep as he still needs to go to work. There was once I carried bb from 11pm till 6am as she kept crying! When my maid woke up, I immediately threw bb to her & went to sleep. Can't take it anymore! Some people tell me yi shan hai bi yi shan gao & #2 may be more notti! I don't know lah... i just pray everyday that my #2 is an angel ;p
 


michelle - u still haven find a suitable gynae? Dr Ang waiting time is LONG, waiting area v small(often have to stand), sat appt v hard to get.
 
hmm i also very sian abt dressing my boy up... hahaha! cos it is always the boring same old things. really hope i will have a girl this time round!! can get all the cute pinkish things for her! whee~

for infant care, mine also recently hired a PRC. my son totally dun like her - he turns away at the sight of her and pout. i wonder what she did to him man. the rest of the caregivers are local aunties who are rather nice and caring. but think it is hard to hire locals nowadays lah so the centre has no choice.

zelda, i hear it's opposite one! so your #2 will be an angel
happy.gif
good luck!
 
agreed with drypantz! zelda, its gona be opposite from #1. im gona suffer when #2 comes cos #1 super easy to take care. hahaha..
 
BB: the ccc with a lot if Indian staff is in sembawang. I work at Cambridge at Sembawang... It's a big centre been around for 3 yrs n I work there since the opening... And all my collegues been there with me for around the same time... The turn over rate in my centre is low as we all enjoy working with each other n the boss is gd... We just move to a new place which is two times bigger than the previous place, and seats r filling up fast I think due to the environment... It's true tat its hard to find local teachers as the pay is not very high n we got to do all the work if nanny n not just teaching... FT contract de n will go when contract finish... My boss just hire one frm phillipines, n so far she is ok... But boss still got reservations abt her...
 
If a child care & infant care centre is just preparing to open, and will be officially starting in October..then how to guage whether the teachers good or not huh? And the director told me they only have vacancies for 10 infants...so got to "book" fast after they open...
 
BB - those type white color and very thin material? i tink its cooling to wear those but my boys damn paiseh wearing sleeves , keep pulling the sleeves as if will longer so i gave those sleeves tops to my fren's boy ..

lol angry bird ! so far he haven told me he like angry bird haha ..

michelle - haven cfm ur gynae yet ah?

zelda - lol , they rather nice to look after , newborn period they can sleep thro out the nite like last feed is 12am , they can sleep till 6am and start moving abit here n dere and once u feed them , they nvr cry de ..

during noon time , i can just carry them out with 1 diaper and some wet tissue and i can go out have lunch and walk abit den i go home , they can last 4hrs for their feed so quite enuff time for me to eat and shop ard lol

wow , ur gal so cute , i tink she cry cos she wanted neighbours to come over and see how sweet she is ..

i just worry this baby might not be easy as #1 & #2 and donno if i can handle not .. lol
 
Huijun,
oh I see, in Sembawang. Those staying around there can take note of your ccc.

So are you going to send your bb to an ifc or someone will be helping you to take care?
 
Daisy,
not that "ah pek" yet lah!! haha! But it's those colourful sleeveless tops and the longer he wears and washes, it becomes looser and looser at the neckline and he still "bu she de" let me throw. Looks so sloppy ...
 
Daisy,
don't think that way lah. I've got a friend who have 2 easy boys and she also thought her #3 will give her problem when he's out. It turned out her #3 is even easier than her 2 eldest ones!

Sorry, juz saw ur msg. what time u coming to town? my side peanut ice kachang nice but now can eat cold thing meh? laksa & curry i still eat.
 

chinbbs - outside food sometimes not suitable for confinement , hubby said is ''poisonous'' lol ..

maybe search for it at a later time or maybe hire a part time CL is not bad also =) at least food would be better den catering perhaps
