SN: I nv buy cane. My #1 is turning 3 next month. The reason is my hubby is sometimes very rash, even when he smack my gal with his hands, he does not know how to control the force and the whole area of her thigh would be really red and slightly swollen. I'm afraid with cane, it would be worse. Anyway I told my hubby to leave the disciplining to me. If i need to, i use the clothes hanger but i smack loudly on the bed or some object near her and that is enough to scare her, coz my gal very timid. Haha.
Your friend's in laws really can be friends with my MIL. Can stay in hospital whole day too... keep telling me to sleep, she will handle the baby. But how to sleep when i know there is someone who keeps holding my child?
This time round, i told my hubby, can he ask them not to visit me when i am in hospital? Wait till i return home la. Hospital is meant for me to rest and not to entertain guests anyway (if my own friends of coz i dont mind though). He said i'm being ridiculous. Lol.
Throughout my preg, my MIL always said my tummy very small. But on the day after i delivered, she told me "wah, your tummy still very big leh! Still look like 5 mths pregnant." I simply ignored her. Crazy, she think the tummy immediately deflate after birth ah?
Mawanab: ya lar. But i already made myself clear last time. I hope next time she will automatic abit. When it is time to excuse herself, she will!
Ankh/Pinky: disciplining kids not easy. My girl has a bad temper (easily show emo face and refuse to talk) when she dont get what she wants but she is generally well-behaved and i thank god for that. She can sit still in public transport or even when we gotta wait 2 hrs in a clinic. If there is no intention to buy her toys, i will avoid going near a toy shop. But if i buy her toys, i will tell her it is because she has been a good girl and she deserves it. Then she will be extremely proud of herself and maintain good behaviour for the next few days. Hahaha!
Mummychua: stay strong. Hope everything will go well for u and bb.
