parent / mom cannot go out with PIL / MIL one ... on surface they look ok ...but when put together it can be a disastrous . they can start comparing the treatment they both received or try to dig information or talk behind our back...so that is disadvantage to us lolz

we brought my mom and mil go HK earlier this year cos my mom hiao... say not very nice to just bring her and not my MIL and so we brought her along ...

let's just say when i ask my mom still dare to go with my MIL on holiday ...she just smile ...which clearly indicate no more next time lolz

haha last year was family trips...in March, my MIL and her aunt went sydney with us together with my parents and my friend and her mother.... i planned the itinerary n accomodation... surprisingly it was a pretty good trip...we rented a mini bus with hubby behind the wheels and drive from sydney to port stephens, hunter valley and back to sydney... even dh said it was a surprising good one... then we had a chartered bus to genting in May 13 with both sides of parents and relatives and once there its F&E for all...

almost want to to bring parents to Bali next week too but i gathered they wont enjoy beach holiday...

so maybe one should look at the itinerary planned for the elderly cuz my mum and MIL aunt is not very mobile...

When hubby and my PILs are together, it spells trouble for me too. Because we only visit them every two years so he is like king at home. And getting him to help with the kids can get myself into trouble. Heng, it's only once every two years for me. It goes to show I cannot live with them. I don't know how some of you mummies do it. Really kudos to you!!

PTB7674 said:
my hubby on the other hand hate RWS group of hotel lolz... he always say pay so much for bad service run by boleh company...and waste time go this or that theme park when we could have gone without paying ridiculous hotel stay price ...

his idea of resort stay is .. really STAY in resort nuah by the pool or go spa which i dun mind lah lolz... we also everyday go pool soak lolz ... and enjoy buffet breakfast and dinner... and i put on 1kg over the staycation !!! i burst my quota for the week ..so must control next 2 wks lolz cos can only put on 2 kg in 1 month lolz

Hahaha! Ya ya.. I have to agree the service sucks. Food in the hotel also no standard. But I think to us what matters most is the kids enjoy themselves. They have no idea about lousy service and expensive yet not nice food!

Rasa sentosa is nice! We used to go every year so got sick of it. Else the service and food there is waaaaay better!! So nice right. After soaking in the pool, I also soaked in bathtub with the kids then followed by buffet! Once in awhile it's ok ba. Heehee.. Eat and play all day. :D
 
i am thinking of having staycation at Puteri Harbour leh in Oct.. the traders hotel looks good....
 
really peifu those who can travel with pil and parents together.
i think I am the petty. I even have problem when traveling with my own mum...lol.
but with gal frens or hubby, I am still ok leh. miss my shopping trips with gfs already....

I juz finish my detail scan..

There might be some problem.

Baby’s lower spine cannot be seen clearly as it should be. And neither they can find the "lump" that indicates that baby might be paralyse. ..

So cant conclude anything yet. Have to review in 2 weeks time.

Anyone know anything abt this issue ??

Ya maybe is false alarm. Don't think so much.

Wait for the review 2 weeks later:)

We are only halfway there but I get such terrible aches at my pelvic area so often! Looks like i really cannot go out for two days continously. Need to do alternate days. :p

Me too. Been going out daily and by evening my belly and pelvic area hurts plus back also hurts. Front and back both painful. So torturous! :(

Rasa and RWS are diff category of hotel lolz .. cannot compare ...

Actually good and bad lah... my MIL and mum really get along v well, they will call and chat, complain about their husbands together, compare recipes, food to cook etc. On one hand I worry about what they try to plan/scheme behind our backs.

On the other hand, I am just glad that they get along, because both my MIL and mum are housewives who spent their entire married life taking care of the home and the kids, I am happy that they have each other to confide in and for a listening ear for each other....

Must look on the good side... :) but when things happen, like if I quarreled with my mum or if my mum doesn't agree with some of our decisions, I will also tell my hubby to pre empt my MIL first and vice versa to get an unbiased opinion...

wow your mother and mil really close yar...call each other and chit chat... *clap*
 
I'm going Bali for my babymoon too! Deepavali week in Oct, I will 26 wks then. I gotta squeeze in one biz trip to Jakarta too before that, which I'm really dragging my feet on, cos I hate biz trips. Though if I plan my meetings correctly, I can schedule myself a lot of napping time in between. :p

I travelled 3x with my mil, my only complaint is that she walks very slow (she's 83), cos I'm the walk fast talk fast kind. We can get along fine, cos it's only that 2-3 weeks a year. Think if I have to live together I will go bonkers though. I'm 1,000% sure my hubby feels the same way abt my mum. My mum is very independent n mobile, but u know la, Chinese mum abit naggy, my hubby not used to it.

Same here! I feel you!! Each time i go out, I have to walk 15 minutes to and fro mrt station. And once i start shopping, i tend to forget to stop for rest. By evening it's a big regret. I need to lie down asap and even tossing around in bed during the night is a torture. I think your job requires you to stand often too? Must take care. Rest whenever you can!

Haha that was my thought exactly when we were planning the trip, I was thinking, I cannot play water sport (not that I like to), I cannot do massage or mani pedi at good ol' Bodyworks, I cannot drink at Ku De Ta or Potato Head, I don't even dare eat roadside stalls like Naughty Nuri, I go there for what right?? So we were toying with alternative ideas like Australia or Seoul. But in the end we figured Bali is just a easy breezy choice, short flight, we know where to go, no stress no planning required. So in the end Bali it should be.

No wonder. Haha.. I am scared of hot water. My last trip to Korea was wasted because we went to quite a few hot springs and I didn't even dare to go in. Ended up waiting for the rest and doing nothing!!
