(2010/09) Sept Brides

[ev3]

Hello all Mrs Sept!

Huisi & XinYue> I am in similar plight as both of you. Now staying with in-law while waiting for my new home. I also started missing home & agree that its becos we have been so comfortable in the past - like princess right? =P

Now, I called home every night to have quick chats with Mom/Dad. currently I arranged to be home every Fri/Sat so I was so glad to be back this wkend!

 

[ev3]

Xin Yue> I can share how I try to overcome and cope with this passing phrase. I encourage myself to stay positive and take control of my life/emo. There are some instances whereby I feel hard to adjust to the new lifestyle and routine with in-laws. I personally feel very impt we feel we could control what is happening and taking charge, not letting others influence your feelings negatively.

What works for me is also to engage in conversations with my husband sharing my feelings and seeking his understanding/comfort and assuring I understand his position and not asking him to take any actions - but to give me great support and help me integrate into the family. this became very helpful for me as it gives me strength and reassure me the cause is worthy! =)

Let's continue to share and grow in our marriage life!

 

[xinyue]

[tayy0003]

[xinyue]

huishan > hehe.. me me.. I dun want dragon bb.. not good for us.
still coping.. sometimes, will cry when preparing dinner.. like so quiet, only 2 of us (me and hubby). this cny is the most quiet for me.. hubby is ok with it la.. his cny mostly quiet de..

how about u?

 

[gixmoz]

xinyue>> i dun wan dragon bb tooo... too much competition when the kid starts schooling haha... rabbit bb is good for both of us...

my cny usually is quiet too.. this yr haf to give angbaos.... BUT heng din see alot of youngsters... so din give too much hahahha...

im totally into living on our own le... sometimes i feel lazy to go back my mummy's place even though its jus 2 blks away hahaha... im a bad gal !!

 

[eeyorex]

hope everyone is coping well... glad that this thread is "alive" after 4-5mths... =)

I went home to my parents place more often now.. cos hubby busy with work nowadays.. I rather travel back to parents hse, have dinner, bathe and relax than to go back MIL's hse alone

my parents told me that I supposed to give angbaos but we choose not to.. cos hearsay 1st yr no need to give.. my cousin and auntie even gave us for the last yr..

so envy that you gals have a home of yours, I wish my hse can complete by this yr... cant wait to have my own hse.. haha

 

[gixmoz]

yeah its still "alive"...

ooh.. i tink if i stay in MIL's hse then i would probably b like u.... but are u on good terms with ur MIL ? or u just prefer to see her as less time as possible? hee...

 

[eeyorex]

MIL is actually ok... ya just prefer to see her as less as possible.. dun wan any conflicts.. most of the time I will stay in the room... its just not me to mingle around

 

[xinyue]

huishan > lol.. but i think dragon bb also not much competition. since birth rate going down..
normally my cny will go visiting for mom's side. those from my father side will all come and eat then go home. nv help out de.

but slightly more than 1 mth after i married, my father's mom died. so parents cannot celebrate cny lor.. thats why a bit quiet.

got give a few ang bao la.. think next year have to give more.. zzzz

my mom's place is 5 mins walk away from mine. i go back for dinner almost every day.

huisi > do you have to help out with housework? ur MIL ok with you going back ur mom's place daily? some MILs dont like their daughter in law to go back mom's place daily.

 

[eeyorex]

xinyue: I dun help out with housework.. mil is a housewife, so she say she will do.. I only clean our own room... but i got wash my own clothes.. cos i dun trust mil's washing skills =X

Mil is ok with me going back... she know I feel more at home with my parents... and before marriage, hubby already told her that I will go back my parents place often.. just that I need to inform my MIL everytime I wan to go back...

my mum also scared that my MIL dun like me to go back.. but no choice.. MIL dun like I also want to go home.. cos staying with MIL is just temporary de..

 

[xinyue]

huisi > ok.. now must enjoy.. next time have your own place, need to do housework. unless engaging part time or full time maid..

 

[gixmoz]

yes.. enjoy while u can... housework is a big big chore !!!

huisi >> wah.. means that everyday u gotta call ur MIL to say u are gg back ur parents place.. isnt it very mafan ?

i hate it when wkend comes cos i need to do housework..... boo...

 

[eeyorex]

xinyue:actually I looking fwd to doing housework.. maybe ask hubby to help so that wont be so tedious.. haha...

huishan: no need to inform everyday.. i will inform one week in advance on which day i am going back..

 

[xinyue]

huishan > hehe.. me also hate to do housework.. now only u and hubby still ok.. when little one comes along, more headache..

huisi > u ah.. must really enjoy.. next time sure got loads of chances to do housework.

huishan > yup.. happy and torturing thingy. more so when baby starts to flip, crawl, etc. Is yours a prince or princess? Mine is prince..

 

[tayy0003]

Xinyue: I'm residing in Hougang now, just shifted over from Jurong West. Chosen Gleneagles coz Dr John's clinic is there.

How about yourself?? Where you stay??

 

[gixmoz]

xinyue... mine is a prince too... now is 7wks old... really not ez taking care of a baby... i wish that he will faster sleep thru the night for now... if not veri shiong.. i got not enuff time to warm up ebm for him haha.. do u latch ur boy?

 

[xinyue]

Karen > living in Jurong West. Chosen Mount A as I am more familiar with it cos went for the childbirthing class there.
Wanted to go Gleneagles but timing for the classes doesnt suit us. So, didnt deliver there.

huishan > yup, really not easy. u need all the help u can get in the beginning. my boy is 5 mths now. Yup, i latch all the way. Also express my milk out to freeze. This is in case my supply stops or drops alot, he still can have BM.

mine, he wakes up for milk very 2 hrs at night in the initial stage. he still does that at times now.

Must appreciate now. Few mths down the road, u will wish he wont grow up so fast..

 

[xinyue]

huishan > u got the avent milk and food warmer? heard it only takes few minutes for milk to warm if u use that instead of using warm water.
