Hi ladies!
Gosh... ur emails sounds like what i had to endure during previous job. Wkends also must check email, else will be bombarded on mondays.
Will be starting work next Tues, contract job for 3mths, might extend till Dec. Glad to have something to do and earn some $$$! Will revert back to SAHM after birth
vi i'll give the swim date a pass, no kids to bring to pool yet!
Can kids use Vaseline for the lips? Maybe Avent would have? I dunno abt this kind of stuff.
iv yes, glad we're comfy w Dr Kee.. else would have to go gyne hunting... lol..
I finally bought 2 maternity skirts yesterday. Cannot tahan liao, had wardrobe crisis in the morning. More and more of my bottoms can't fit. Either can't zip up or tight and uncomfy when buttoned. My tops are still ok though. I think it'll be difficult to have enough clothes to wear for work, can't live in my shorts and T-shirts all the time liao.
At the moment, still trying to hide my tummy cuz we haven't announce yet n i dun have a lot of baggy tops. Once OSCAR all-clear, dun need to hide liao. Then I wouldn't mind wearing my stretchy tops.
The salesgirl yesterday tot i've reached 4 mths when I'm only at 12th wk.
Didn't know my tummy looks so big... *sob*

baby
No work on sat but then weekday got OT but not compulsory unless those big shot ppl want us to check the stock else can dun need OT.
Jas
Seriously i prefer to work then be SAHM as i am short temper but then seperation anxiety cfm will set in no matter wat status as we brought them to the world and really miss seeing their cute and lovely face+antics eventually.
Intially I became a SAHM is becoz i couldn't get myself away from her but as my gal became older and naughtier and my finanical is getting very strain hence tat why decide to go work and another reason was my HB quite anti social so tat why prefer my gal go socialize tat earlier.

Garfield,
I am also short-tempered type one. And i feel that i dun do a good job as a SAHM. Dun know how to teach...no patience. I intend to go back to work when my 2nd baby turns 3months old. Wonder how much will it cost if i sent them to a nanny place?? Aiyo, the thought of letting others take care of my children..i feel very sad. But to give them a better life, and to prevent myself from gg nuts...its still better that i go out to work.

How was everyone’s weekend?
Vivi
Oic..hee..but at least ur son will b willing to put on e lip balm..unlike my boy..brushing his teeth is already very diff..how do u manage to brush ur boy’s teeth?
Poshies
Hehhe..actually my email, majority are spam mail..so usually I’ll delete all & only untick those which are not for reading..cant afford to go thru one by one..waste my time.
Wow..ur bb girl is sooo cute..feel like pinching her..heheh..so how is her sleeping/drinking habit like??
Deluxe
Hee..gd sign mah..this goes to show tt e bb is growing well in your tummy..unlike me, my tummy was rather small..even when I was abt to give birth..there are many pregnant ladies at 5/6 mths with tummies so much bigger than mine..
Jas
U will get used to working life one lah..no worries..though staying at home for sometime will make u really attached to ur kid but then again..being away frm them does make u miss & appreciate them more..heheh..like my case, I know I cant be a sahm..prefer to work & come home to spend quality time w my boy rather than I get frustrated w spending the whole day w him at home. Initially, I was really worried abt leaving my boy at the cc..cos he cried like dunno what when I left him there loh..but now, he’s coping well..happy & simply bochap abt me when I leave him at the cc every morn

hello all!
iv big tummy = good? hmm... dunno leh, guess i scared i'll be stuck w extra "baggage" after birth bah.. me beri hiao.. hehe..
jas is it possible for u to make a slow transition back to work? e.g. start w part-time or flexi-hours, then go into full-time then both u and ur bb have time to adjust.
Me, i hope i can be SAHM cuz i'm typically not a kid person. Just dunno wat to do w them and i'm also not patient. I know many pple say it's diff w ur own kid, so i'll wait and see. Hope i dun go gila... Actually my hb is a lot better with kids, just hopeless w housework and cooking. But he earns more and there's no way we can survive on my pay alone.
poshies thk for the info... now have to go and find out if NTU is in the South West district.. lol
Just wondering, did any of u use both bf and formula? Everything i read discouraged the use of formula cuz of nutrition and nipple confusion. But my mom today said i shld mix, day time, bf, night time formula - not so tiring. She said that's how i was fed and no problems. True or not?? I tot exclusively bf for 6 mths is best?? Also i'm wondering why EBM works since it has to be bottle fed anyway, wouldn't there be nipple confusion too???

deluxe - i pro-bfd de. i'm still nursing my 2.5yo.
but objectively speaking, it's very much a personal choice after reading up.
it's encourage to bf at least 6 mths cos it provides optimal protection for the bb.
also, bm is most gentle on bb's stomach.
your mum suggest mix is bcos most ppl has the conception that bm is watery and wont 'tahan' the bb throughout the night.
and u will need to bf more night feeds. hence more tiring.
but some tbf bbs still do sleep through the night.
i suppose is how u impose bb to follow routine.
just sharing my experience.
both my bbs were put to breast within 10 mins of birth.
both were bottle fed before in nursery at the hospital before discharged.
they did not have nipple confusion
i tbf my son for 18mths and i'm still nursing my girl now.
i think it's hard to avoid bottle. u still need to give water right?
i know some books say tbf bbs dont need water cos of the high water content in bm, but sg very hot lei...
all the best!
