ANY MALAY MUMS HERE?

Daryan,
Congrats! alhamdulilah u n baby safe! Enjoy ur maternity n take care of urself most impt!

Re:pampers
Last time used also leak a few times when berak or when sleep sideways but most of the time wont if the gathers wrap ard properly. Pampers is more "breathable", soft n dunt give line marks on thighs n paper based, no scary sounding plastic sound. ahaha.

different babies different requirements. boys need space in front so pampers not suitable, usually huggies or mamypoko. but me is loyal pampers buyer for now. bought 4 cartons ie 16 packs!

I was sick last week. My collegue suggested i might be having another one. some more i nv had my period at all. so panic n wasted money on the kit and tested negative. haiz.

Daec
200/2010 - if 2009, now can start try already la. heard if havnt wean off baby abit harder to get preg. but some say breastfeeding dunt mean cannot get preg. think conflicting so depends on indv. i guess

lynzi,
ur hubby sounds excited. last time my hubby also excited.

heard from my SIL that her friend sangkut with 4th even thou had IUCD done at KKH after straight after third child.
 


danryan

stylicliously
want to change my job first. rather be WAHM OR PTWM. entah boleh ke tak..always time for full time work when kids grown. yes there is conflicting views abt the preggy while breastfeeding. tengok cam mana la..
 
hmm..
if WAHM or PTWN prob need to manage time properly n need time to get into routine also. so far noticed, if babies know their mum/dad always ard almost 24 hr, they tend to want more attention n harder to please. got a friend, her n her hubby dunt work, always cry at home. 6am in the morn ask to go downstairs push ard in stroller than quiet. as for ayuni, she knows the routine n the pple to associated with the timing. like morning must send me off at door or downstairs to work so her nenek will carry her, i offer to carry dunt want. going home time, she dunt want moyang to carry, scared tertinggal!
 
danryan

CONGRATS! Finally the wait has ended and u get to c ur girl..

I pun sunatkan Farah kat Dr Masayu at 1 mth btu i didn't dare pierce her ears mcm blm ada isi gitu. Now pun lagi tak berani takut dia tarik the earrings. Dia ni ada sikit aggressive.

Pasal pampers ni pun time newborn je i pakai then switch to drypers. But now with Shakil asyik leak aje either behind or at the side. Curious lah. He's now on M cos dah cepat membesar! Apa tak? Susu every 2h!!

Ingat maybe change to huggies but that time tried but cutting at the thigh kecik sikit. I'm also confused with the diff types of huggies, tk tau nk beli yg mana. So far i tried yg merah.
Mamypoko belum try.
 
Dannryan, congratulations on the arrival of your baby girl.
I have two boys too, thought of trying for a girl next. Hehe.

For diapers, my 2 boys have been using Mamypoko since newborn. So far no leakages. Tried drypers before. Belum 3 jam dah meleleh. Huggies' cutting pulak is too small for my boys' round butt. Left marks on their thighs.
 
*Motherhood Fair*
Just came back, so disappointed coz no Mamypoko or Dumex at all! Had to go to Giant to buy them instead. Boring sey...

*Looking for job while pregnant*
Sigh... my interview with Illumina is on Mon but i very much doubt that i'll get the job. My tummy dah mula showing
sad.gif
Confirm they won't employ me. I mean who would?! If they do, i'll be on ML in 5mths time. So stress now, hope u all dun mind, cuma nak meluahkan frus sikit
sad.gif
Rasa so hopeless at the moment.
 
Danryan

Did Dr Aziz deliver your baby?
happy.gif
Congrats once again!

Nor
Aiseh... I'm sure it's not easy looking for job while preggy. If they do employ you also, chances are you won't be eligible for maternity benefits. Coz from what I know, you need to work for at least 6 mths in a company before you can be eligible for the benefits. What to do...

Nora- Noni
Hello! Where are you? Got yr Coach stuff? U kena GST tak ehh? :p
 
Naqia
Selalu GST berapa you kena bayar? I ordered, goods still on the way, not sure kena GST tak eh?:p
You always join sape punya spree? Any handling fee or extra2 tak?


Yg lain..
weekends selalu thread ni taking a break tau..mana korang ah? Esp SASHA????
 
Shimmers,

I have a buyer today. but if she back out, i exchange with you.

Eh, got lobang on coach, tell me. Dunno which thread to buy from. Need to get something lah.
Thanks.

insyallah all work out - whether u do get a job or not. ada barakah, the money last longer miraculously insyallah ;P

styliciously
true for FWTM, the babies dah kena train. tahu schedule when can look for nenek, or mum. think its the same for other. mus train play independently or be with other people.my mum (SAHM) dah train Nada to be taken care by my sis maid. if she not free or tired, can opt to send Nada there heheh.

just think early years are very impt. in some cases, perhaps I need Nada more than she needs me. she does ok cared by my mum, but i miss those moments with her. its not replacable. I'm not ok with missing those. in some cases, I think there is just no substitute for the mum. nenek have own & diff role to play eg. most nenek wont bear to disipline the kids. my mum sometimes cant bear scold kids even if they wrong ;) those need to be consistent if I am not ard, I cant observe and correct her. I'm rather hands-on. nak buat tu sendiri.
 
danryan, sharena
pasal pierce her ears, takut juga. mum say she got hear some dr advise not to pierce ears when too young. shock nanti.

ada dr say its ok.my fren got her daughter sunat, pierce years same time. sunat - dia ok, tak nangis. pierce ears - she really scream and cry. then she dun let her mum carrry her. aunt carry her baru she ok, calm down after some time. her aunt kata looks like daughter merajuk/angry pasal sakit. think baby was ard 6-8mths old gitu

oh yeah recently my girl pull the earring off my ear. The earring easy open so it just came off.sebaik tak apa-apa.
 
Danryan
Congrats and cherish every moment with your baby girl! Take care and rest well.

daec
You're right. Memang the early years are impt. Every moment we spend with our kids now is like a foundation for our relationship with them when they are older. As working mums, we will definitely miss some of those moments, but as long you devote time to your kid when you're not working, no need to feel sad or guilty about it. It's the quality that's impt, not so much the quantity (this is what I have to psycho myself whenever I feel guilty about not spending enough time with my kids!)

That's why I'm even more busy during the school holidays, kena layan these 3 kids. My son made a long list of all the things they want to do within the 4 weeks, and mummy die die must fulfill their wishes! I dah penat bring them out, macam tourists, pergi Hippo Tour, DHL balloon, etc. Nak tengok gambar, kat sini: http://reza-aliyah-misha.blogspot.com.

Pasal ear-piercing, I pun belum buat for my youngest. The older one did hers when she was 3 years old. No pain actually, but nangis from the shock aje. She was OK after a few minutes.
 
*Ear piercing*
Tak prasan ade topic ni pulak
happy.gif
me intending to pierce my girls ears ard 2-3 years old. Most prob my mum will do it for me, Jarum panas and lots of minyak gamat
1478056.gif
keke. Now takleh, still too young asyik grab her ears n hair, lum reti lagi.
 
Mademoiselle
Still negotiating with a buyer also. We'll exchange if both our buyers back out.
Coach sprees, there's one organising now by CP. You may want to join..she is residing in US so there'll be a handling fee. Ordered frm her before, she's quite efficient.
 
Shimmers & Mademoiselle

Ah there you have it, CP is good, I agree. My stuff arrived barely 3 days after it was shipped out from US! I bought a wallet - sighs... so guilty now. Kalau bag, at least worth it jugak :p

Shimmers, my stuff less than SGD$400, jadi tak kena GST. Once I bought from another person, it was about SGD$600 and I kena GST about $40!! you beli apa apa? *winks*

I guess we can get a little discount off handling fees since we've purchased from here before.

daec
You're right with the money lasting longer...about barakah
happy.gif
I guess that's the most important thing huh ?

My baby was done with tummy flu over the weekend. Got worried as his fever remained constantly high - tak pernah macam gini seh! Akhirnya brought him to KK on Sat night - tummy flu rupanyer! Alhamdulillah now all and well, back to his active self. Kalau tak, so clingy to me - macam magnet!

Nor
So camner? Dah gi interview? How did it go?
 
wah...u ladies talk about coach stuffs eh.
i used to get it direct cos my sis was studying in US last 2 years.
Nowadays since ada faiq, i am really trying to control myself in buying coach bags cos 1 bag je can set me back $400 plus sey.
If dulu time belum kawin, in 1 year i can get 4 -5 coach bags...tu belum termasuk gucci...hahaha!!
now dah mindful sikit ah.

hmm...now that my hubby is back barulah i get a breather.
faiq pun dah stop but ragam since his daddy is back.
if not, punyalah penat nak layan him.
especially worse at nite when my DH was not here cos his daddy yg take care of him at nite n not me.

ima,
jangan cakap preggy lady susah nak dapat work.
i yg tak preggy ni pun still trying to find PT work.
Ada job offers but once a week aje.
not enuf kan gitu...

yeah lah true do what u can for e kids. asal both mummy and kids happy ;)

are you a SAHM too?

Lynzi

You're an ex teacher kan? Sure got qualifications and experience, and shouldn't be a problem trying to find a job. I guess you just haven't found yr match
happy.gif


Abt Coach bags, wah seh, borong ah you time yr sis kat sana :p I enjoy looking at them (window shopping) but personally I think the designs are rather loud ah, so my Coach bags are the subtler types - black madeline, full leather ... cuma satu jer tu pon I dah sorok in the cupboard.

I love the large carly - maybe I should get the optic signature one. But so sayangg the $$...esp now things are so expensive. And I do feel guilty that ada orang miskin out there...sighs
 
Naqia/Lynzi
NOW you all make me feel bad also!!!:p
Tapi oklah not its like every month I must shop for those bags..I limit myself also kalau tak nanti ikutkan nafsu, beli beli beli..tak pakai sayangkan duit..
So, that day I just bought New Sig Patent Carly..this one I bought at the boutique here..rasa mcm wasted sangat2!! Then recently, I kirim a mother, Hamptons Tote and LongChamp..okla shipping n handling FOC..apa lagi!! Later nak go n collect frm her house..
Bila nak collect ordered item mcm excited kan, nanti dah dpt the feeling eh isshhh I shouldnt have bought this..*ARRGGGG!!!!
 
Shimmers

LOL! I totally understand how you feel~ haha, hey the patent carly is gorgeous. I love the designs cuma quite shy to carry them out ah hehehe..

Ohhh you ordered from tktotts eh? I saw that thread too, actually quite worth it jugak coz still cheaper than getting from here (less guilt), hehehehe..

How much does a longchamp big tote cost eh? I like it too. Tapi kat suntec or something ada non-authentic...kekeke...what do you mummies think about carrying non-authentic stuff? :p
 
Hello ALL

Sorry lah lambat reply....bz ler......

Nadia
Yes, Dr Aziz yg delivery my gal

LIGATION
Today i baru balik from dr aziz to open the plaster. Me delivery normal so, Dr Aziz did the ops from my pusat...really can't see the jahit....i tak rasa sakit when ops is done coz me pengsan terus tak sedarkan diri....bila dah sedar i kat my ward bed after less than hour later.....but after a week baru i leh gi urut badan.....if thru c-sect than baru ops from the tummy itself like my own sis.

Danryan,

she is so cute...i LOVEEEEEEEEE the cheeks.
macam gerl version of my boy lah.
boleh chope first tak to matchmake? ...hehe

sher,
apalah kau ni.
if ada kemampuan, nak beli...belilah.
aku ni dah spend too much on faiq...tu pasal have to limit buying my own things.
aku sad sey.
the other day nak sangat the carly in bronze/ brown but tktotts said dah oos.
punyalah disappointed...

U taknak jadi tutor ke? MY fren jadi tutor, not bad coz timing is varied and he earned ard 1K for his own blanja2 during uni period. U ni ex-teacher so i think u can charge lebih exp

*Pasal Job interview smlm*
Haha, the company called me @ 9am cakap postpone to next Monday. Rasanya, if i go there with my tummy cam gini sure tgk one glance then ask me to go home
1479918.gif
 
Danryan,
ur baby tembab seY! so cute, so peaceful sleeping. her middle name unique, nv hear b4 like dat.

lynzi,
a tutor shd be good for u like what nor said. i think if u do grp tuition i think ur income can be up to $3-$4K? this what my collegue did n she said its like being paid to slack! coz most days she was free. like dat boleh la spend on urself more! ahah

daec,
prolly u sick of working ah. hahaha.. for me, now at my 2nd posting ok lah. office hrs less tiring n i go home on the dot but sometimes email myself my work but only half the time i will do at home! so many backlogs to clear, no good clearing other pple's mess.

*jobs - anyone wanna be prison officer or fiancial advisor can look for me. can reccommend u.ahahha... as for other jobs, i feel its a mean world outside esp private sector! very competitive! now graduates much higher starting pay!

*coach bags - nv really follow this brand, mainly coz my hubby dunt like US designer brands. his taste more up n expensive - LV n Gucci. even now, gucci is common. So far i nv delibrately anything for myself. all my hubby got for me or himself n i had to scold him for overspending last time when getting married!! he used to work @ the LV repair centre so before they left DHL for a french logistics company, he bring home all the stuff supposed to discard away - all the rolls of LV canvas n leather n those gold hardwares of handbags, etc! now all hidden away in my room!
 
Danryan,

Congrats, your girl super cute!Shiok nye dia tidor!

Shermin, I just got one coach pouch from ebay : ) dunno why suddenly feel like getting one. Then, when I'm outside, everybody is carrying one, until the nyonya beside me also using a mini skinny for her ez link. Think, I got the message to get one. Hopefully, craving will stop!!

Other people craving ice cream, durian or chocs, I crave for Coach!

Styliciously,

Wah, the rolls of LV in your room cost thousands man. Nvm, if kenduri tak cukup tikar, can use the branded LV ones : )
 
Naqia
Ya i ordered frm her since she's goin there better la. I also love my patent carly but I beli turquoise..makes it so hard to match..my hubby said beli colour yg loud lagi, rasa in kamu!!

Lynzi
Tktotts just got back, she ada post in WTS for that Carly u wanted tu tau. Go n take a look la..If I know I ordered frm her la..bought mine here for $789, US selling after coversion only $500++..imagine at SGD price, I can also get extra wallet sey!!
*Private tutor*- Yes true, my MIL, a retired teacher is now a private tutor earning ard 2-3K(with very limited students because of her age)..so u can try and earn more.

Danryan
Congrats la..so adorable..nama Marshya so unique, whats the meaning eh?

Styliciously
Talking about LV n Gucci..my hubby pun sama. Will prefer those to Coach & Longchamp all.
Wah ur rolls of LV tu, like mademoiselle ckp, can make tikar la..best la!

Mademoiselle
Jgn get adicted tau..these stuff reallyla, once dah startkan ada aje tau yg berkenan tak habis2..Btw, congrats dpt jual ur shoes.. mine buyer tak jadi ler!! What a luck!

shimmers
apesal la belik kat sg.. ish.. ish.. i know how you feel, i did that once and swore never to do it again!!!

been eyeing longchamp pillage but cant bring myself to spend money on something that looks so simple. Watson pun ade jual look-alike.
 
noni

Thanks for the compliments for my bb gerl...now she's a week old....dah naik 200gm (2.94kg)....she's really a good breastfeeder....tak cukup2...bangun je tercari2 nak kena sumbat lagi...tapi bangus lah frm the 1st day she can latch already....kalau tak cukup baru i kasi formula....

Tapikan bad news ler.....when i just came back from the hospital...my 1st son Danial nye badan ada blister letup2...terus my hubby bawak dia gi doc and confirmed dia kena chicken pop...alamakkkkkk....but now dah 1 week...semua nye dah kering...susah jugak nak handle coz Nadiah baru je sampai umah takut she and Raiyan jangkit pulak...

i have a few voucher to give....anyone nak?... kalau interested let me know...before i post to WTG Thread.

1) FARLIN 20% vocher
2) ANNUM Voucher $4.00
 
Nora Aw
Itulah!! dah tak sabar sangat so I just grab..I like the turquoise colour and cant wait to melaram with it..kalau buy frm sprees kan kena wait for all the shipment all tht..inilah akibat kalau being too impatient, high price you got to pay..
Oh this Carly not in patent, only a lil bit of trim pun tak nmpk sgt.. the wristlet yg i just bought ni lah yg in patent..then mcm tak cantik eh! What to do, dah beli, pakai aje lah..
What did you buy frm CP?

Now looking for the Hamptons Optic Signature Capacity Wrislet, cant see in the website lagi la..kalau not seen there, where else to get frm eh?

Ryatie
Anak u CC kat mana? So good la the CC organised something like this..surely benefit all,the teachers, students and parents as well!!

Danryan
So sorry I get ur gal's name spelled wrongly..pasal I saw her pics u posted tu was spelled as Marshya..

Marsya means ape? i have 2 frens pun name thier bby (both born last year) that name. Cam popular gitu...name penyanyi ke? My girl nama Nabila, ppl say i name her after some popular Indon singer...haha...

Hehe u ni tempting pple to get more coach goodies! But I agree, once you start, ada ajer yang you berkenan!Just now I was on a short time off and I just went window shopping at the coach boutique.Aiseh, I love the Ergo range (think noni bought it).

Noni, yr purchases abv $400 pon tak kena GST eh? very tempting!....

The bag i'm carrying now is a coach total leather soho bag, can't see it in the local stores though...

Danryan,
Nasib baik yr baby tak jangkit the chicken pox!

annum vocher can use for milk for breastfeeding mum? if yes, can pass to me? heee..

YP having fiesta at marina - thinking of exposing ayuni to the cover baby contest. anyone had experience in baby contest to share?

naqia's rite, i got the ergo framed satchel and denim tote... hai.. sekarang so in love with the denim tote, its my first denim thing. dun know if sg boutique ade tak.

if u r looking for stuff which is no longer on the website, try ebay. i semalam baru bid for one bag. impulse buy... sigh

naqia
so far buy with cp tak pernah kena gst, i think she declares it as gift. but tu pun nasib. cp did advise me to ship separately to reduce the chances, but i took the risk.

baby contest
never participate in one but love to watch those at shopping malls, some kids can be so charming.

Danryan
kite pun salah tengok agak ye.. so how to pronounce - Mar-si-ha is it? Sedap jugak tu..

Pasal nama Marsyha ni...i pon suka skali nama ni...and yep, i heard it on citer Dia. I cakap ngan husband i next time kalau "accident" hehehehe....kita dapat girl den we name her marsyha....so nice to even say the name!
 
ryatie, your CC seems to be very proactive. So good kan dapat travel with the kids and other families.

mamaliz, congrats. Macam cepat gitu dah dapat buyer. I just the valuation report for my house. Pelan pelan kayuh.

Nor, memang not easy to look for a job while you're pregnant especially if you've started showing. Take a break la. Lepas delivery, should be easier.
 


*Betty*
The past few days Ima rasa gelisah, coz feel so depress about the situation that im in. So called up the company HR yesterday, told them about me being pregnant and all. Then today got an email from them saying they welcome n look forward to meet me during interview next week. Rasa mcm mixed feeling. Not sure this company is open about hiring preggies or the interview is just a formality they have to act out to show that the company is "fair"...
