I am surprised to see that most of us are FTWM. It is really tough to work full time and still take care of our family at this age

Dear all mommies,

Do you remember the first time other people call you \"auntie\" ? How do you feel ?

I remember that was after I gave birth to my second baby. I got a shock when another woman (not much younger than me) called me \"auntie\". It took me 1 to 2 days to get over it Before that, people used to mistake me as a fresh graduate

Ahahah
I can't remember exactly when but it doesn't bother me much
I married and had my child late
When most of my friends were married and had children, I insisted that their children addressed me as \"aunty duriz\". Even as early as when I was in my twenties.
I figured if someone is older than the child but no more than 10 years, can be addressed as jiejie. But anyone older than the child by 10 or more years should be addressed as aunty. not to confused the children mah

I am also fine if children call me auntie. But if people in their 20s start to call me auntie, then it is a little depressing

Aww, no lah.
I'm positive you're still young and beautiful.
Young people nowadays very silly, don't take it to heart.
They really only know how to \"interact\" with PCs and HPs, not real people. Thus their social interaction skills very limited.
I'm 41 and rightfully an aunty

Tam,
I am an auntie even before I report to this world. My mum's 2nd cousin already had 2 kids before she got married. Though extended family, we are quite close. Therefore when I was born, i was an auntie already! So you can say I am quite immune to people calling me auntie, even people obviously older then me!

My kids are all \"uncles\" & \"auntie\" among some relatives too!

I thought I will have my menopause soon, asked my gynae and she said its only when I am over 50 years old :oops:

It's quite genetic. If your mom has menopause early/late, you will b similar.

Some women do start menopause in early 40s. My mom did.

Just have to expect 4 big candles on the birthday cake hahaha

Let me tell you all one joke.

A few years ago, I noticed that my period was very short and light. that continues for a few months. Short and light means i prob only use one pad and that's it. Was a bit worried so I went to a Chinese Medicine Hall and ask if I should take something to 调理. Thought maybe I should take 白凤丸. When I descripe my conditions to the sales assistant, she told me i have to take the special 白凤丸, I asked why, she told me that based on my description, I'm most likely having menopause liao. I was so :shock: :shock: ! Told her I'm mid thirties and I asked her if she has heard of anyone like that. She told me in straight and serious tone - yes, nowadays women are getting their menopause earlier and earlier. So its no surprise that you are having menopause... :!: :!: I was a bit alarmed, and immediately called my gynae to see him the next day. When I told the gynae my conditions and asked if I'm having my menopause, he :rotflmao: and assured me with tears in his eyes that I'm definately not having menopause. Just that the lining is thin and I may not be able to have kids anymore. :roll: :roll:

3 months later, I'm pregnant again... :roll: :roll:
