Somehow, i get the feeling that i don't know the \"me\" anymore; like i've shed off being me, put on hold temporarily, and when i try to, i can't find my way back. Has anyone here among the mummies felt the same way?

hm...for me, i feel that being a mum and SAHM is what i have been wanting all along. i'm not very sociable, disheartened at times at how some people can treat each other (in an office setting), so much so that i enjoy holing up in a world comprising only of my husband and my kids. :!:
i know it is not healthy, but i can't help it. :oops:

Dear Jedamum

After working in an MNC and holding a managerial post for years, I have decided to quit the workforce....and spending more time with my only princess...DH is fully supportive and in fact is the one who asked me to leave...Like u said, its very sad to see ppl in the office fighting for authority and playing politics everyday..when u think about it, life should not be just like this...i feel its very meaningless and tiring to be facing pple with a \"mask\"....I am only able to declare a SAHM in 2 months time...I really look forward to it cos i know it will be a completely different journey in life....

Hello Jedamum and Outsider,


yeah....I believe I will know how to enjoy it.. My girl was born prematured and it was really a difficult pregnancy which i had never enjoyed...Even confinement days were spent visiting the hospital everyday....She is now in K1 -4 yrs+ and I feel its time for me to really accompany her through her growing years..providing her the guidance and nurturing her....Thanks for the welcome msg.....I feel so good.. :rahrah:

Hi auntieM, how old is your DS now....my dear DD was born at 32 weeks and was only 1.43 kg...I believe u understand that its really not easy to look after a premie....so many issues to tackle and was really mentally stressed at that time....My DD was born in SGH and they had a light weight club for these children....Every year, the hospital will have a LWC party where they will invite the children there...We brought her there almost every year and we tell her about premature babies....She has 2 small little baby toys and she will always tell me these 2 babies are twin and they are premature.... :shock:

HappyAvon,

My DS is 7 yr old and weigh about 1.2 kg at birth.
We 'did it' at Mt Elizabeth and he was in NICU for almost 4weeks..
They organised Premies gathering once on the second year..
So confinement was in and out of hospital,and town for me

Hi i m a SAHM who r landed for coming 4th years...hahahahaha...

Basically decided to give up job r mostly like the lovely mother here, KIDS always come 1st... although $$$ yes a factor to consider n re-consider on spending, but no choice when the thought come to children. Well thats really lot of differents after no income, then DH needs to work hard for $$$ n spend less..

Of cos think that without maid to help doing housework, n these really is a no end projects :oops: but no choice... then problem come in when start really watching kids study n their homework... phew... no jokes!!! really \"pei fu\" those great SAHM start handle their babes from newborn till all d way.... :celebrate: to all d mother ^_^

But after this few years feel no regrets to stay at home coaching them n turn them to d right paths, as d real impact for me to stay at home due to my son behaviour get worst with slight attitude problem....n now this year feel \"gan cheong\" with his PSLE exam coming, yet his learning attitude also show slaggy~~ feel headache .....hope able to share some info n get to know how to handle kids better....
