hi lynda,

Hi Lovedog,
i leave my bb with my mum and i will visit him everyday provided i'm not working OT. Bring him back on fri and sat and "return" to my mum on sunday. So terrible hor me! but my boy is difficult and it will be too tiring for us to fetch him around everyday.
I paid my mum $1k leh...for taking care of my boy and allowance for them lor. Not sure is it too little!

hi lynda,
thanks for sharing... i also intend to do that when i return to work. but got a little concern as my dad & bro are heavy smokers. they smoke anywhere in the house. i am also concerned with my mum's hygene's habit loh.. coz she will handle the family dog...i worried she may not be diligent to wash her hands. think i will have to drill this habit of washing into her head.
i also intend to give ard $1K including her monthly allowance from me. however, i was still thinkg to bring bb home maybe 2 or 3 nights a week during weekdays. but i guess have to see how it goes...
how long do u spend at ur mum's house playing wif ur son after work each day?

Dlim,
Yes, i leave office abt 6plus 7pm. I like baby to be with me at night esp when i am away the whole day. Baby is very close to me and no one else. The feeling is very selfish, but i love this nice special priviledge. So maid go sleep at night, but she has to do all the rest. I like feeding baby on my own and playing with baby... Indeed i am very tired and esp so when baby is not sleeping at night and wants to play...but i tell myself, only a few months baby should settle down! SO ENJOY while i can...since when he gets older, i am pretty sure he will not want me carrying anymore...

hi My hospital bill came up to about $7K in total of which $4K are hospital charges. I had a natural assisted delivery (using vacuum) with epidural and stayed a total of 4 nights in a one bedder (as I voluntarily extended 2 nights).
Doctors' professional fees take up the remaining $3K.
The nurses are very nice and experienced. I learnt a lot from them on how to settle a baby and other baby care stuff. That's why I decided to extend for 2 more nights.

I stayed at Ward 6E I think.
I also had Dr Yip as paediatrician but when I went for the first visit after discharge, his clinic was so full and busy that we are now having second thoughts. There are many other kids there with cough or other illness. I didn't think it was suitable for newborns to be in this kind of environment so I took my son out to the corridor to wait while my husband registered for him. At that time, I had quite bad backache. You can imagine how tortuous it was.

HI ladies,
This thread has been quite quiet for a while..
How are all the mummies, mummies-to-be?
My boy has developed a sleeping pattern for the last week. GOOD NEWS for me...he sleeps about 9pm and wakes up abt 3am, then all the way to about 8am. Only need to wake up once now...thought this day will never come! WHEW.....
Baby is very fun now with much more alertness...
So cute that i want to have 1 more....

Hi ladies,
How are u mummies doing? I had returned back to work since last week. Quite tiring but i missed my boy alot when im in office. Whenever i reached home, i will play with my boy, carry him etc. Hope he also miss his mummy...hehehe..
Keann,
Thats a good news! Is your boy 4mths+ now? Mine coming to 3mths soon. He still need to be feed every 3 hours but when come to night time, sometime he can sleep till 4 or 5 hrs then wake up for milk again. I wish my boy can be like yours too so that i dun have to wake up in the middle of the night to feed him. Very tiring especially i have to work the next day. Now my boy also start to drop hair. Im planning to shave his hair when he is 4mths old. Have u shave your boy's hair already? Did u bring him to normal hair salon?
Now I started to bring my boy to my room & sleep with me even though i have to work the next day. Except when my mil is at my hse, i will let my boy sleep with my mil in the bb's room.
Also i start to feel jealous whenever my maid keep carrying my boy. So i spoke to my maid & told her when im ard, i will take care of my son like feed him, carry him, change pampers etc. I told her to focus on her cleaning & cooking etc. I will let her know when i need her help. I think she understand what i mean. The reason for doing this is i dun wan my son to be too close to her.
How is Lynda? Didnt heard from u for quite some time.
Lovedogs, how's your coping with your bb? Everything ok?

how was your holiday? must have missed ur bb so much during that time
my CL left last sat morning. Full month party on last sat nite... was very busy as other then hb's frens... i had a few diff groups of frens...so trying to talk to everyone, running ard... luckily bb slept from 7.30pm to 12 midnite!

Hi Lovedogs,
Its quite tiring especially u have to wake up in the middle of the night to feed bb & work in the morning. Yah, actually im very lucky to have my mom & mil & maid to help looking after my boy.
Im not too sure what is pneumococcal vaccination leh....hehehe.. So far, i have brought my son for 2 injections already but i think pneumococcal vaccination have not done yet. End of this mth, i have to bring my son back for injection again. Maybe i will check with the PD.
My holiday was great & really enjoy myself there.
And of course i miss my boy alot alot...i even bring his photo with me so i can see him when i think of him..hehehe...
So how is your CL during the 1 mth stay with u? Finally she has left but then u will start to b very busy handling ur bb alone! At least yr hubby got help to carry yr girl when she cried. Maybe he is too busy with work now. Dun worry too much, i believe he will sure help u when he is free.
Btw, can u share your girl photo with me?
Lynda,
My trip was great but abit tired cox i took the midnight flight & reached spore in the morning ard 5am+. Lucky still can sleep the whole day before i start work the next day.
Oh really. Which salon did u bring ur boy for shaving? How much u pay for it? My boy now also drop alot of hair. Im going to bring him for shaving when he is 4th mths old. Any recent photo of your son to share with me?

Lynda,
I have sent u my boy photo. U may check yr email.
$5 is very resonable...$16 is too exp lah. Somemore so young, how would they understand what is hi 5..
Lovedogs,
My email is [email protected] No need to throw away your BM lah...so wasted. U can actually store in the freezer & it can last till 2 mths the most. Juz note down the date u pump out on the bottle so the person who help u to feed will know which to take 1st.
I also have the same feeling as u...when CL left, i was so sad & worry i cant handle my boy.
Its better in this way so that u can sleep longer during the night. Or u can use those BM that u have store in the freezer to feed your girl too.
Yes, i can wear back some of my pre-preg clothes but not all. I think still need some time to slim down again.
So how much u pay for the brush ya?

Hello all,
I will also be delivering at Gleneagles. My gynae's Dr Chris Chong. Any one has the same gynae here?
winwin,
I think you can do the hospital tour now when you're more mobile. Anyway, I think they only conduct the tour on Tues & Thurs (can't rem issit day time). You may call the hospital to check.

Hi deedy. Glad to know you have Dr Chris Chong as gynae too. Think he's a very nice gynae!
Mummies, is washing the breast pumps very cumbersome? Many parts? I can only imagine...hasn't got them yet, thot still early. If I pump a few times a day, does it mean I have to wash/sterilize it each time? If I only have a pump, I'll have to only rely on that one pump..

deedy, i will not bother bringing the breast pump. i just delivered at gleneagles on 28 jul and brought along my breast pump. i did not use it at all becos first few days, your breasts produce colustrum only so not as if you will encounter any engorgements so painful that you need to express it out. also, becos you will not be producing full supply of milk yet, you should let your baby suckle all the time so by the time you get home, your breasts will produce enough milk for baby's consumption. breast milk is all about supply and demand. mother nature is great, your breasts will trickle milk when its time for your baby to feed. it is a miraculous natural reaction. so bizarre! happy motherhood.
Hi TweetTweet, agree that Dr Chris Chong is great. I'm very comfortable with him as my gynae.
Mummies, thanks for the advice.
I've also read somewhere that within a couple of hours after delivery, they will bring the baby to you for breastfeeding. I'm just very curious how do all 1st time mummies do it. As i've nvr done bf before, i'm just wondering how am i able to do or if i cld even know how to do it at all.
Mummies, thanks for the advice.
