Hi ectanz!



How are your two kids getting along?

Hi mummthreestreams, so far both of them are getting along quite ok. My dd1 in fact is looking forward to hv little \"mei mei\" to play with her.

Although my dd1 doesnt feel jealous of her little sister as her time with us is being shared but occasionally will complain tat we didnt spend time with her n instruct her to run errands 4 us (I.e. Taking milk bottle or diaper, etc). She can differentiate the \"treatment\" between my PIL n at hm. She complained that she looked like a maid at hm whereas being treated like a princess at my PIL place.

Sign.......

Do u encounter the same problem n how do u tackle this problem?

Hi, I hv just became SAHM for about 2 mth to care for my dd2 who is 8 mth old. My dd1 is in K2 this yr. Been 6 yrs gap is a great challenge for me to take care of a baby without any helper. Trying very hard to adapt to a new chapter of my life since I hv been working for almost 20yrs.


I really salute those mummies hv more than 2 kids. Lots of relatives esp PIL suggested I shld try for son since I hv 2 girls but I don't think this will happen.

ectanz,

well done you doing good......with your gals... :love: :ugogirl: :peekaboo:

kiddo!

Its opposite affection.I always wonder how a working mom manage the family and work.I :salute: for all WTWMs!Need more energetic.
As a SAHM, sometimes I feel If I go to work I will be more active.At home so boring and don't want to do anything.After I marry,first few years I so happy to do.After I worked then I stopped then again being SAHM, my kids grown up alredy 9 & 5 I feel boring.

I've 2 girls too. Whenever my mum said I should try for a boy, I will throw this question at her, 'you want to help to babysit?' That's the moment she will cringe and quickly change topic. Worked all the times

My mil didn't even suggest at all. Because she opted to help babysit bil's kids so she dare not suggest to me to have another. She already forsee my question :rotflmao:

Haha that is exactly wat I told my mom when she ask me to try for a boy ( I've 2girls too :hi5: )

[BeContented]

Ha ha. Dun need 2 girls for that question. I have 1boy 1girl but MIL think not enough, must give her more grandsons. Initially when my mom still helped half the time, MIL would pester. Later, when MIL 90%, kept quiet....until sometime back, say 3 is better. Stared hard at her & asked \"at ~40yo??? U want to take care???\"

My killer sentences \"I gave u 2 grandchild Liao, get the rest from your other sons. Alternatively, DH can go get outside woman (but of course, this was calculated risk, knew she does not approve\".

My mom on the hand didn't suggest this as she understands the hardship of going thru this without any helper. She can't help me much due to her age as well as health issue. However, my MIL n her relatives will keep pestering Me to try for a son whenever there is a chance. Since she is my MIL, I dare not to answer inappropriate manner but leave it to my hb or juz avoid this topic. My MIL will b mad if I talked back to her.

Fortunately I am not staying with her but pity my SIL as she has to face this issue of having another baby everyday.

I agreed. However, most ppl think juz nice 2 hv 1 boy n 1 girl. This is perfect combination. My question is for those having 2 boys or 2 girls, what if the 3rd one is the same gender, r u going 2 try again? I hv a ex schoolmate, she has 9 older bros. I salute her mom 4 her strong determination. I think nobody can defeat or challenge her. :udawoman:
