morning mummies!
mom of 2 - totally unzipped?! power!
had a rough night. my maid is totally pissing me off with stupid, inconsequential small things (like don't know how to wash hands before making milk), and taking so so so long to make the milk because don't know the cold/ hot water combination. UGH. my hubby told me not to scold the maid cos it creates a negative home environment for my #1. Feel so wei qu! Wondering if i should just send the maid back once and for all, or just keep her so that i don't have to retrain another maid who might be equally terrible!
bad start to the day.

Mom of 2: Me too. Can only zip my skirt halfway through ... I was measuring my own weight this morning n have gained 1kg despite feeling weak all the while. Funny.

unzipped but shirt is covering it all so no one can tell. belly band, i think it'd be too hot? I can't wear too much - feel hot esp at the end of the pregnancy so I wont bother about it. plus im the type that always loses odds and ends. like last time i bought bra extenders...all also dunno disappeared where.
i dont dare to weigh..hope i dont gain 16kg like last time. baby only 2.68kg, i still had extra 11kg after giving birth. :\

aylie> my maid also like that. my hubby like to defend her somemore. qi so wo.
it's not like you never told her to wash hands before preparing food before right? i think if she's not too bad, then tahan loh. like you say, probably get another equally bad.

Mom of 2. Yap he's very or extremely pro natural delivery. Just imagine, my first one by him n she overdue by 2 wks. His comment - hmm she happy n comfy inside, so no worry. Let her decide when she want to say hello.
Most gyne will ask u to induce the Bb out by 39 wks. Lol. True, by the end of wk 42, she out n healthy Bb weighting 3.6kg.
.
He's man of few words. Need to ask him if u feel unsure. He promote heathly n balance diet to giving sup. Till date, I hvnt hv any sup from him apart from folic
He earn himself gd reputition in tmc n great respect from tmc nurses. They will usually b very careful with u knowing tat u r his patient. So I've no problem with the nurses during my 2 preg n delivery at tmc.
Losing weight after delivery
Breastfeed is the best way to lose weight. Manage to throw away 20kg after each preg by 4 -5 mth thru bf.

Aylie, cool down n happy tots. Is ur maid new?? They need abt 6 mths to settle down. Keep reminding. If not, like me, I post notes on the item which needs more details.
Like, on my elder gal, how many scope of milk powder for her n my little one too. How much water to put into the sterilizer.
A marker on a cup for her to know how much hot water to add for my Bb.
It's tiring at first, but it will save lots of hmm unhappy things later.
In the beginning, all this has to be drawn out, cos her english isn't tat gd.

baywater - she's not a new maid, she's been with me for 9 mths. she has her good points but when it comes to being work smart, she is really not. imagine, i teach her how to use the washing machine for 1st 3 months she still doesn't get it. we pasted stickers on the buttons and wrote instructions in her notepad, and still wrong. the color ran in the clothes, and my electrical bill shot through the roof ($300+/ mth). in the end, we have to take over the washing ourselves.
same with milk. how can i possibly to teach someone how to wash hands? she actually can squeeze the handsoap in her hands, then open the tap, run the water and that's it. what's the point of the soap?? and to take 3 tries to get the water right - pouring it in, pouring it out, pouring it in, and out, wah biang, my girl crying for milk and she really cannot make it! i don't know how to describe her!!
for repetitive, tedious, manual labor, she is good. for instance, she hand washes my girls clothes and it's clean. my house is also squeaky clean.
UGH paisay i just need to vent it out here!

Candy u also hv piles issue after delivery?? Soo painful. ;(
Neo garden tingket is hmm is not wat I can take it. Pack home to eat is better n well might b cheaper n u hv a choice wat u want. Tried it too n din like it.
Breastfeeding.
Recommended is for the 1st 6 mths. My no one, I latch her till she turns 15 mths n she survived on emb for the next 3 mths. Working then, mummy can't take it
My second one, latch 100% till I'm 5 wks preg, cos no more bf for her.
. My original target was at least 18 mths. Sob sob.
They r so cute will they latch. Miss it. My first one miss it terribly n my second one miss it too

E tan: I am also thinking of going for tingkat. My hubby comes home late n I have no energy to go buy food for myself as my home is quite far from the foodcourt. I tried Jessie catering before, but stopped becos I heard microwaved food not good for baby. I will always use microwave to heat up the tingkat food. But now I think I will use steamer instead for baby sake. Tingkat food not that healthy right?

candy - pei fu for the natural birthing. i was in labour for more than 24 hrs, and i took epidural 4 hours after bursting the waterbag in the morning, after a sleepless night. during epidural administration, i can actually feel the probing which cause the doc to stop and re-administer the anesthesia again. now i have some phobia.
my girl had some problems latching on, she is extremely sleepy and no matter what i did, she wouldn't wake up to drink more than 5 mins so for the 1st 2 weeks of her life, i bf every hour until i almost wanted to stop. then i started to pump and it was a lifesaver. i pumped for 4 months and she was on bm until 6 mths. not sure if i want to try latching the #2 again or go straight to pumping exclusively for #2.

baywater,
you so good! Lose weight thru BF. I only bf my #1 for abt 6months, but she stopped latching after 2 weeks so I only pump.
E Tan,
Oh no, hope you feel better today~!
Breast is the best! hahaha...actually BF is up to you, depends on how long you want.
For me ideally should last at least 1 year (minimal). I wanted to BF longer but after 6months no supply liao

Overall, I'll still choose to bf all my kids.

Bf-ing is never a easy task!!!! But still for the first 6month, it's really good for our baby... But arr!!! Bf-ing bb may have problems too!!!
Exclusive bf also will jialat cause when you intend to stop, bb may reject FM totally and go for milk strike.
My friend's boy reject FM after she intend to stop after 9month of bf career... The boy go on milk strike... Tsktsk! So i would suggest if you all wanna bf ofcause is good.. But if can, give 1-2times of FM during the night... Let them get use the taste and smell of the FM , you intend to give.
and for your info.. FM is not for us to choose also. Is bb that choose FM worr... So you have to get sample and try for the first few times.. If not if you buy 1small tin also will end up wasted.
