Mummies/SAHM staying at Jurong
- Thread starter mumbb
- Start date
poshies got ur PM, thks!
babybarney hope u dun have to work too late then!
BTW, who's SAHM and who's FTWM here? At first when i came upon this thread, i tot everyone's SAHM cuz of the thread title...hee hee
wendy yah i know! we just viewed an apt, it was so stuffy and hot inside, so glad that it already has air con installed else we have to do it ourselves. Normally i dun sleep with air con but i think i might need it later on.
ivfamily I've only been away for 6 mths, not that long. My hubby used to work at NTU for 7 yrs and left to join another company, which then retrenched him 8 months later. He found a new job in Melbourne but it wasn't the job he wanted so we always knew that it would be temporary until a better job comes along. He sent out many applications and it just so happened that NTU offered him a job again. We could have also gone to Washington DC but after weighing the pros and cons, NTU seemed like a better place. So here we are, making one big merry go round. For me, it was a nice change of environment and the perfect reason to quit my former job which had very long hours, not so fantastic pay and high stress. So far it's been ok, just very xian of packing and unpacking!!
Got the egg tarts! Yummy! But the price has gone up tho... felt the pinch but still can't resist.
Oh if any of u are working at tg pagar area, the jap place i went for lunch has a gd value for money set lunch. For $31 u get a salad, hot appetizer, chawanmushi, rice, miso soup, 2 main courses and dessert. The place is called Sui Japanese Dining at Craig Rd.

Hi
Im back again. Hehe. Busy and tired this past week. fionne was sick again and now my little one was sick too. Brought her to nuh on monday for her sensitive nose and wed for her speech delay and ent for checking ear. Doctor said most children who cannot pronouce properly may be due to water inside the ears so she suggest going for check before going to speech therapy. I waited 3 hours there and spent over $200plus seeing 3 different doctors. Actually it quite a good checkup at ent coz the doctor said her frequent running nose and block nose is due to sinus. There is some water inside her ears too so may affect her hearing. I still need to bring her for a detailed xray and hearing test again 2 weeks later.
Wendy
My hubby also wearing green too. My hubby also suggest employing a maid now. though mil and i are not comfortable with the idea but agree we need an extra hand in looking after 3 kids. Otherwise our lives will be miserable and no freedom. I still trying to get used of the ideas coz i have a phobia in having a maid at home. May i know what wrong with your maid that you need to send her back.
Deluxe
welcome back singapore. Im a sahm with 2 princesses. One is 3 years and the other 6mth old.
Poshies
I also agreed you are super mummy. I think i hate the idea of picking up a book again. You dont have time to pump in office. Jia you jia you. Hope your supply will pick up again. Did you try fernugeek.
Brenda
At least your hubby can help you to look after the kids. For me it quite difficult to have a break for myself.
Ivfamily
How are you now. Take care of yourself. Guess plenty of rest and water is the best cure.

baby loonytunes have u considered a part-time maid instead of a live-in maid? how come you have 3 kids to look after when u say u have 2 girls?
Just moved into temporary apt yesterday... will be moving to a larger one when it becomes available. Aiyo, the block under reno, so noisy. From 7plus in the morning they start using trucks and machinery to move things around in the carpark. Then from 8plus till evening, drill drill, knock knock, hammer hammer.... the noise drives me crazy.

Haha wendy then i have 1 kid too liao... the MOTH @ 37yo behave more like 7yo!
BTW, I wanna ask where to get nice, not so expensive maternity clothes. Do u buy maternity wear or normal clothes in larger sizes? And when is a gd time to start buying maternity bras? I looked at shops in Jurong Point and Vivocity, either auntie looking or nice but very ex.. almost $80 for a pair of pants. I liked a dress and pants but they cost $90 ans $140!! I dun even spend so much on my normal clothes leh! Also dunno if I will still be able to fit into them during 3rd trimester if I buy now..
Anyone tried Maternity Exchange @ Marina Sq before?

During my preggy days i juz wear normal tee but 1 size bigger than usual but then i gotta buy pants cos working ma btw u dun really need buy those maternity pants cos there a new way I recently learn from my frenz instead of buy maternity pants u buy those long tube top and wear it at the belly area.
Something like this link but this item is actually specially for preggy but normal tube can also like that so u can save more $$$ tis way.
http://www.evalillian.com/belly-sock-maternity-belt-prod474.htm
Btw as for nursing bra my advice is dun buy first until u have stabilize ur milk supply cos my cup size fluctuate during my preggy and nursing leh so instead i wear sport bra until about 1-2mths after birth btw nursing bra can get it cheap at either on the forum bulk purchase thread or moms in minds lah.
