Hello Zila,
I think another mummy here goes to Dr Malathi.
I bring my 2 yr old boy to a PD at Tamp St 11.
Which part of East do you stay?
 
nora...
kirakan ade older kids...kena up-to-date always...
tapikan nanti dorang yg selalu dtg pat aku like 'ibu dah dngr this song ..bla bla bla'

then come the sexplain part...
kalau aku dah dngr dulu then i pre-warn them dulu lah....

Zila,
I'm staying at Pasir Ris.
Currently working til my contract ends this month.
NPL, are you a teacher?

Lina, "sexplain", yikes!
I can't imagine how I'd do it.
I mean, my mom pun never gave me the "birds n the bees" talk...
I rasa for my boy, when the time comes, I'll get my HB to do it!
 
morning morning

yesterday afternoon i got a meeting outside office la

hmm.. bile dengar NPL jer kite conclude checher eh..
i guess not many employers nak kasi NPL long term
 
Selamat Pagi...PIL will be in Singapore for overnite before heading for jemputan at Kota Tinggi JB.

Hi Zila, Welcome!!

My kids 8, 6 & 3yrs old..
 
Hi all

I MC lah semalam & today. Semalam MC pon half day gone, biasa lah my nature of work :S

Zila
Welcome!
I go to Dr M! She's OK lah tapi her clinic is really full of Indian expats (and malay moms like me who went to Dr Aziz, lol). She's very experienced & I like that she's not the sort who's too by the book :D

There's another PD kat atas tau. Dr E.H. Low. Chinese Man. He's OK lah, cuma very hurried. Consultation pon tak mahal sangat, think only $35 gitu.

I think these 2 PDs charge very reasonable rates. I went to Kinderklinik or something kat hujung (same floor as Dr M). And it was really expensive. Obat fancy ape aje dia kasi tapi at the end of the day, babies really don't need fancy med which actually do the same thing as normal meds.

Have you tried putting California baby's calendula cream? Or ALoe Vera gel?
 
Hello...
Supposed to be on leave today, but had too much stuff to do so ambik half day aje.
Sigh, this place, just becos I'm leaving, they're really squeezing me.
Sooo many projects this month!
And they don't understand that becos my contract ends Feb 28, the 6 week deadline, becomes only 4!
I swear I have more work this month then I've had the last year combined!

GRR....
 
Athlete & Nora- hehe! Yep, I'm a teacher

Shahlynn

Athlete
I guess you're not at work today :p
Anyway I had lunch at donut factory with my colleagues. I had salad. Healthy or watt? haha...
 
Hi SD,

Mana semua orang pergi...?
sad.gif


Alahai, sesekali aku masuk.. semua takder.

Anyway, just came back from NUH. Now heavy rain over in Jurong with thunder and lightning. Baby still not engaged. I tot the baby already was engaged. Tapi rupanya tanggapan ku salah.. LOL.

Anyway, enjoyed my early maternity leave. Sent Maya to school back and forth. Tapi ada ker patut, there was this makcik yg hantar cucu dia, ckp aku nie gemok ? She said she didnt know i was pregnant.. so upset seh. Bila anak dia dtg, i was like WTH.. anak dia pun gemok and ever pregnant.. Duh.. i tot dia biasa duduk dgn orang kurus sampai tak tahu bezakan... gemok dgn mengandung.. phui. Bingit.
 
hello!
i'm at home today cos my mom sakit.
she has what i call "the no-maid syndrome"
the symptoms are "kepala mabuk, badan/kaki lemah".
she gets this whenever a helper baru balik.
hehehe. jahat seh.

"i tot dia biasa duduk dgn orang kurus sampai tak tahu bezakan... gemok dgn mengandung.."
LOL...
 
Hi Bonda
aisehman, makcik tu sungguh tak sayang mulut.
I mean seriously, even if she thought you were fat, she didn't have to say it out right? Social skills weak seh. Dah lah jangan amik hati. Tak guna naik darah pasal orang yang main hembus aje ni.

Have fun spending time with Maya. Don't let anyone rob you of even a second of happiness. hehe.

Oh pasal engaged ni, my gynae actually said, usually 1st time mommies will experience engagement earlier. Tapi for 2nd pregnancies onwards, sometimes babies tak engaged until during labour itself. Yang penting baby's head dah turun. Senang nak keluar. Exciting betol

athlete
Waves! So happy to see you here. I'll miss you a lot you noe! Really! :D

Yaaa i thought that phrase you highlighted was pretty funny too...kekeke...

Hmm best lah Wati nak bersalin. That's a scary moment but it's so amazing. I recall many thoughts going through my mind when I was going thru those labour pains....
 
SD,
Oh, I always thought that can when a baby is engaged means the head dah turun?

Btw, if we don't get to do my farewell work lunch, we can still meet up some time next mth, when you're off or working from home?
We can bring the kids out petang2...
 
Hi Athlete... your mum nie kelakar eh... "No maid syndrome.."

SD, takper.. aku pun tk nak mengata makcik tu. Biar lah orang dah tua. Mata dia tak bagus agaknya. It is true abt 2nd labour not being easily engaged ? then i feel better.. well i think shld be by this week.. lah.. insyaaallah.
 
Athlete
Insya-Allah. We'll think of something. I just hope Adam doesn't terrorise Andri.

yeah I've always thought so too. engaged means dah kat cervix or something. tinggal keluar je. heheh.

Wati don't worry
no matter what once you feel contractions, baby sure engaged punye. Pas tu batok sikit, baby dah keluar....
 
yes... i remember the batok incident. I was coughing all the way to get Maya out.. so funny but true tau.
 
Ckp pasal maid... haiz.

My maid betul pekak ah. Smlm ada 3 tupperware nasi goreng. My mum told her to heat up all 3 and give my hubby bawak pergi kerja. Then i pun bilang dia the same thing. And guess what... this morning... i saw ada 2 tupperware in the fridge... she just heat up 1 and let my hubby bawak.
 
Bonda
maybe dia tak rasa yr hubby would be hungry enough to eat all 3 tupperware-full of food? Macam2 ah maid ni. Makan hati....
 
padahl me and my mum dah ckp...'Kasi Sir bawak pergi ke tempat kerja jadi teman2 sir boleh makan"...

then this morning, she go to my mum house she said "Ibu, ada lagi 2 tupperware nasi goreng, sapa nak makan?"

habis kena marah dgn my mum..
 
kwang kwang kwang


Oh ya do you know that a few maids got together and wrote a book (fiction) on being maids in singapore? I saw it in straits times semalam agaknye.
 
hey babes

been busy la

wah maids pun dah jadi author...

i read saturday papers that sejak they announce salary hike for maids
kes maid lari oso increase
its strategy
lari go embassy
kena hantar balik
then come back to work
new contract
new (increased) pay
cerdik akal dia eh
 
morning all,
personally i think, the maids "situation" has reached its peak in s'pore.
its time for the govt to do whatever's necessary to curb the demand.
focus on developing more and better child/infant care facilties.
promote and inculcate a more pro-family culture at work.
you know, it's amazing how anti-family some Cos. and bossess are.

just my thoughts only la...
 
"promote and inculcate a more pro-family culture at work.
you know, it's amazing how anti-family some Cos. and bossess are."

*click* LIKE
kalau boleh nak click beribu kali.. hahahah

in germany either parent can take 2 yrs off work after childbirth
and after that they come back to the same job
 
nora, exactly!
kat sini, 4 months aje employers dah complain!
you know, when they were looking for my replacement, apparently my boss cakap, can we hire someone who's not married with no kids?
maybe she was joking.

but honestly i think its the singaporean culture that's v anti-family.
partly cos there's so many single unmarried women...
*have i opened a can of worms?*
 
"single unmarried women"

banyak in my office species camni

my boss actually said, i think i hv berbincang abt this before

"if we can make do without a staff for 3 mths, then we can make do without them already"

now lagik ML 4 mths.. i cant imagine....
 
my newly married friend went for job interview.
the interviewer (female) actually asked so you planning to have kids soon?
she said she felt compelled to say "no".
 
hi girls...
yes, i'm back @ work...

wati,
no worries la... baby aku pun tak engaged.
last2 dah 7cm, waterbag dah burst, baru dia turun.
@ 5cm, gynae still taknak burst waterbag, cos baby "too high up"

milk rashes - my boys kena.
i bersih kan with warm water. den sapu prickly heat powder...
a few days later, dah okay...
 
Shahlynn
Nice talking to you just now.

bila you nak bersalin, u tak nampak cam perut you dah ter-turun sikit eh?
I recalled seeing my tummy macam terturun seh.
It's so low...hahaha and I could feel baby tekan downwards.

Athlete
Oooooh, am sure that was good!
I love any fast food. hehehe.
Donut factory very basic lah.
$8.70 for a set meal of pasta/salad/soup/drink + 1 donut .
 
SD,
Same! I'm a sucker for fast food.
Esp burger n fries!
Lucky they're easy to cook at home too!
Except for pizza, lah, how to "urut" and twirl the dough...
 


athlete
errrr, buat pizza sendiri? letak yeast and all? tak pe lah ehhh hehehe...maybe you'll have more time with all that when you're a SAHM.

But i think home made pizza is def healthier. less preservatives

I bot pizza last weekend (you'd know) and i was horrified to know 10 pcs of ala carte drumlets cost $9.10. wow.
