(2005) Brides of year 2005

hi ladies,

jenn,
back to work already... tiring and super miss your jayden right?
me still got 2 weeks b4 gg back to office.

newbbi,
in another few weeks times, you will be very happy to see a sac turning into little baby.
and you will be looking forward to your next check up to see your baby.

daphne,
how's andrea? better?

ting/newbbi,
if you gals expecting gal, i can pass you gals a lot of gal gal stuff, if you're not fussy. think by then my gal cant wear all the small size clothing leow. most of them are passed down from my aunt.

newbbi,
i did drink coffee and tea throughout my pregnancy. but reduced from 2 cups a day to half a cup at my last tri.
i dun take raw food and half boiled egg. shark fin, i take only when i attending wedding. think a small bowl is ok lah.

i do attend wedding, but avoid wake.
my aunt and mil told me can attend wedding and baby 1st mth, but just dun go or rush up to the wedding couple or the baby.

all mummies,
i bot yao lan for my gal 2 days ago cos at my aunt place she will be sleeping in it. but my gal, dun seems to like sleeping in it leh. she still prefer to sleep on her bed. dunno whether will waste $$ buying a not.
 


Blue genie yeah heee, we met again this morning. my hubby was with me, cos he is taking train to suntec for course.

I will attend wedding, but i tried to avoid going to wake. Heard that even if go full month, best not to touch BB too.
 
ger2, i will adv u to chk wif ur folks whether they will mind u gg to wedding/1st mth as they might be pantang...some folks dun really like the idea of preggies attending.

for me, i chked wif my folks on this when i am pregnant. they told me that they dun mind me gg but forbidden me to go to wake/funeral. for friends who wanna invite me to their wedding/1st mth, i will tell them in advance that i am preggie and if they are pantang, then i will not go...
 
linda, it's great to see u here...managed to log in while ur bb gal aslp? *smiles*

winnie,oh, i din see ur hb leh..only see u frm far *lol* nvm la, next time still got chance to intro.*smiles*
 
linda, tink ur gal still not used to yao lan yet...give her some time.

w/yao lan ard, i feel it's easier cos bb will slp longer than on bed...cos it's like cruddle bb to sleep, bb will feel more secure..
 
hi blue genie,
ya, my gal will take nap in the afternoon and i will have time to login.
i train my gal to nap ard 12 noon till next milk time then make her sleep again till abt 5+ or 6pm to bath and next feeding. 8pm will be sleeping time. so far, my training helps and i can do my housework and other stuff without being disturb. hee..
 
blue genie,
everybody told me that. i will try to let her get use. but she can sleep rather long in her bed also leh. but one thing, my aunt warn us not to yao her. just sway her can leow, otherwise when she is used to the yao yao, we will be in great trouble leow.
 
linda, it's gd to train her and let her get used to the routine. next time when u go back to work, ur aunty will have a easier time.

me too, i oso sort of train my boy like u. tink now he knows the timing of wat things he shld do loh..hahaha.

ic ic. for yao lan tingy, tink it's depend on individual. not true for my boy leh, cos he will slp in it during day time, at night he prefer to sleep in bed..
 
Linda,
My jayden oso sleep in a yao lan... he start sleeping in it when he was 5 weeks old. My mum insist us to buy wan..cos for bb easier to sleep. So far so good lah.

He know that day time, he has to sleep in yao lan, as for night time, he guai guai sleep in his playpen liew.
 
linda- thks in advance! keep aside for me 1st can. hee... my cousin's boy wil be 1 yr+ by the time i gv birth so if mine's a boy, thn prob can get sm stuff frm him.
ur gal reali well trained leh! nxt time mus get sm tips frm u! hehe
 
linda, how you train your gal to zzz at 8pm? mine still wide awake! she usually will start to zzz around 10pm lor and wake up sometimes at 1am till 7am....

today brought andrea for her ops review and she is doing well...... gained weight too...... now about 5.3kg liao..... finally hit the 5kg! cos she lost weight just before her ops...
 
Ting,
Yap, nevermind, i resend to you again

blue genie,
ya loh... it will be easier for my aunt.
ic ic... i will see how. cos only today i start to let her sleep in the yao lan. will see tonight, which one she prefer.

jenn,
hee.. your jayden also well trained leh.
for me, i kinda no choice, cos inez also like to sleep one her right side and now both the side a bit unbalance leow, so my aunt ask me to let her sleep in yao lan to correct her position.

ting,
no prob, just let me know.
hee... no lah. i also trial and error to train her one.

daphne,
glad that andrea is doing very well.
as for the sleeping habit, if its nap time, i will tell her that it already 12 noon and its time to take nap, whether she wanna sleep a not, i will put her on her play pen and give her pacifier. it takes awhile for her to sleep, but sometime when her pacifier drop, she will cry, i will attend to her and make her sleep again. and night time at ard 7+ or 8pm, i will give her her last feeding and bring her to the bedroom and tell her its 8pm and its sleeping time. will carry and cradle her for awhile till she abit drowy then will tell her that i will put her on her bed and tell her to sleep on her own. she will "stone" for awhile then by 8.30pm she will be sound asleep till the next morning.
 
Linda,daphne
At least ur girl girl very obediant liew, my boy usually sleep at 10pm, walk up at 2/3am for milk, sleep again, and wake up at 7am for milk again, simply cannot sleep thru the night, although everynight before 10pm feed, i always tell him to guai guai let mummy sleep more, it wouldnt happen lor
sad.gif
 
jenn,
actually i wanna take 10 weeks. ut my superior/HR manager ask me to take full 3 mths. so i take 3mths loh.
initially will be like dat one. like yesterday, i bot and leave my gal at my aunt place in the afternoon just for few hours only, and both my hb and i went to do some shopping. in the car, i told my hb, i missed my gal leh. like without her ard, something is missing.
as for the sleeping habit, my gal listen to her daddy loh. my hb will always tell her to take nap, then later wake up then play and drink milk. so she kinda understand and we have to keep our promise loh. when she wake up, finished her milk, we will play with her for awhile. hee..
 
Linda,
Ytday i worked until 10plus, by the time , i reach home, jayden slept liew, so sad, cos cannot talk or play with him...

But this morning, he gave me a surprise lor, he wake up at 6am plus and give me a smile when i carry him, all the xin ku and tiredness gone liew.
 
jenn,
so sweet.
every morning, b4 my hb goes to work, he will kiss inez goodbye. this morning, she open her drowsy eyes and give her daddy a very sweet smile, so much so my hb stood there for abt 5 mins to look at her, bu se de go to work. hahaha... think 2 weeks time i will be like you and my hb like dat, bu se de my gal.
 
jenn, i agree with you that the smile is worth all the late nites..... now andrea can kindda smile when we keep playing with her and she also can respond a bit liao.... so it's getting fun to play with.... now my hb also every morning will want to kiss and cuddle her before going to work... then at nite, sometimes, i will put her to zzz beside me.... keke.... bad habit but i like having her zzz beside me....
 
linda, i tot my menses came 2 wks ago but just spotting and then no more liao.... so till now still haven't come and hopefully don't come so fast..... keke....

jenn, i asked mummy2r to keep 4 tubes for me, when you free can help me collect? not very urgent so can take your time a bit...
 
Daphne,
No problem, so u had told her that i will be collecting from behalf from u ?

Maybe next week bah, this week me not going to punggol plaza lei.
 
Daphne,
No problem, last sat, me just went to buy 5 tubes from her, hence dun think this week going again lor... sorry for the delay hor.
 
daphne,
agree...inex also kinda smile when we play or talk to her. especially when i bring her to the toilet, she kinda know that its water time, she will give me a sweet smile and will start to kick. hee...
think your menses will nor come so fast bah, cos you still bf-ing.
 
jenn, yaloh, every morning, i brought my boy to my PIL's place, when i open the gate door of my PIL's place, he gave me a look like "u sure want me to go to ah ma's pl?" i will tell him that papa and mama gg to work, no choice cannot bring u..then he is ok loh...
 
Linda,

Morning ladies!

Jenn,Linda,
The Yao Lan hor, its those spring type hor, with a piece of cloth liked net below hor? How much u all paid for it?
 
morning newbbi!

i dunno whether to get the yao lan yet coz mi mum said beter to let bb get used to sleeping on the cot. but in the day is quite good if use the yao lan coz cooling. later yao too much, i have to suffer. haha...
i think itz quite cheap nowadays lei, even got auto kind.
 
morning ladies...

Newbbi, we bought baby cot heee cos i dont like yao lan. but depends on individual.

I went to the infant care opposite my block, ayoh terrible leh, the auntie use a mop to mop the floor and use the same mop to mop the play mat leh.... and got a malay auntie put the baby on the bouncer and tried to rock so hard to make him sleep. Each rock is a jerk as the metal hits the ground.....

heart pain man.
 
Morning ladies,
Hi newbbi
Currently kiddy palace have promotion for yao lan, cost $79.00 for a standard frame, a 3-spring tier and one holey cloth yao lan

For me, jayden sleep faster and easier when place inside the yao lan during the day. He sort of know that day time hv to sleep yao lan, night time he will guai guai sleep in the playpen wan.. so need no worry that u need to "yao" too much
happy.gif


So who will be taking care of ur bb during ur ML, u intend to engage a CL ?
 
Newbbi,
Yap, at times when jayden is inside the yao lan, he can sleep for 2-3 hours when he drink ebm.

I agreed with blue genie, i feel playpen beta then cot.
 
Jenn,
Sounds quite cheap hor? but hor, haven 3mths leh, tink still cannot buy these items yet lor..

During my ML, MIL will be helping lor...she will be doing confinemnt for me lor..Actually I wanted to get a CL one, but hb dun wan.Say wan to save $$ and then might as well give that money to his mum...Then I asked him how abt nite feeds , then got to go marketing etc...he said he can help to wake up at nite to feed bb lor, haiz, I also duno lor...
 
morning all...

newbbi, if MIL can do confinement of cos save $$ lah..... but the con side is that there sure will be conflicts and with MIL will be awkward.... even with my mum, sometimes already got argument on how to take care of bb.....
for CL, it's not so tiring on you at night but then it's really your luck whether you got a good CL or not.... like my friend who got a lousy CL, she sent her back after 1 wk and ended up her mum and maid helped to do confinement which was so much better....
 
Newbbi,
Yap, the yao lan is cheap lor, i oso bot one and put @ my depot hse lei... wait till ur bb stable first, then start to buy bah.

Oh, that is great, so ur MIL will stay in ur hse ? Then ur hb in the end, hv to do nite feed, and do all the housework liew, cos cannot simply ask his mum to do it and u oso cannot touch water ! Seriously night feed not joke during the 1st mth liew...further ur hb still have to work the next day, will be too tiring for him le.

For me, i still think engage a CL beta, although ex but at least u got plenty of rest and u are paying for someone who is oblige to do all the duties.... if tell MIL, difficult lor, ask oso pai sey, if dun do, u feel angry or frustered.
 
Daphne,
I receive ur email, i will collect for u when i am able to make it .... i will contact mummy2r directly as i oso got her hp number.
 
mornin gals =)

newbbi- my mum wil be doin confinemt for me. CL reali costs alot of money!! so after u go bk wrk, ur MIL wil help u take care of bb?
 
jenn, yes! doing night feed is no joke! i was almost going crazy during that 1st month..... broke down to cry a few times lor..... but until bb got schedule then really much better...
 
and also hor, my hb helped with the 1am feed then and after a mth, he also lost weight..... and that's only the 1am feed leh.... i refused to let him take the 4am feed..... even till now although andrea start to zzz from 12mn to 6am, still also very tiring and each morning, i still have to drag myself up at 6am to pump and then i will quickly go back and zzz and then woke up at 9am again cos bb cry liao.... but still so tiring...
 
Daphhne,
ya, i can understand, although i didnt wake up physically for the feed, i can see from my CL that she is tired.... cos 1st mth still adjusting and oso many night feeds......

Right now, although me still have one night feed, me oso feel extremely tired, on the way to work and back home, i dozed off in the train..

this morning, me oso super blur, alight at the wrong station - outram park, instead of harbourfront, sigh !!!
 


Daphne,
Me too, i am sleeping around 12plus, then 3am, have to wake up for his feed, then 6am have to drag myself up to pump milk for 1/2 hr... and start to come to work, super tire meh....

I really hope that i can continue express bm for at least 1/2 yr, really not easy for working mummy....
