      I actually missed cuddling my own babies.......I quite like babies.

      I loved the feel of carrying them near me and I also like the feel of them when I'm pregnant πŸ™‚ .... guess partly cos' can eat a lot and no nausea.

      When my 2 kids were young, too exhausted to consider #3. Did consider #3 after things became easier, but as mentioned, dare not undergo another CS, age already caught up plus the thot of going thru' the whole process of night feeds, wailing, changing diapers etc..... :sick:

      Now, once in a while I still toy with the idea of #3, but my rationale tells me I better not as I dun think I can cope, better not joke with myself. 2 kids and 2 elderly already getting on my nerves.....so case closed.

          ectanz,

          no thks! im in the hi risk age grp alrdy.

          my ds1 is in k1 this yr. my #2 still in my tummy, due late aug. i've forgotten hw tough pregnancy is, altho i managed to 'escape' alot of usual discomforts like morning sickness, water retention, constipation... but still the groin/ligament pain and frequent peeing/disturb sleep is enough for me to smtimes question myself WHY?
          I hv my dd1 when reaching 39. No much discomfort but mentally suffer, keep thinking whether I hv a healthy baby due 2 my age. However it eased my mind, she is not only heathy but huge - 3.4kg. I opted 4 c-section, she can grow even bigger if on full term.

          My dd1 is in K2 n my dd2 is juz turned 8mth.

            I missed carrying a small baby. Didn't spend much time taking care of dd1 when she's a baby. In fact, I almost missed her entire initial stages like 1st roll, 1st smile, 1st step, due to high work commitment.


            With dd2, I cuddled her throughout her waking moments. My mum & mil thought dd2 is clingy. Nah, I'm actually the clingy one, refused to let her down, just want to carry her endlessly to make up for my lost moments with dd1.

            I almost became hercules, can carry a 10kg baby for hours. She's overweight la, 10 kg at 6mths old. Carry her on one arm, do housework using free arm, then switch hands. We were like siamese twins, glue together. Now I really missed those moments.
            What is the age gap between yr dd1 n dd2? U r really very strong.... My dd2 maybe around 8kg for now 8 mth old (not so sure hv not gone 4 next , I can't tahan carry her in one arm n do housework using the other arm. As she has been in IFC b4 when she was 3 mth old, she will start to wail the moment we put her down in rocker. Now slightly better as she enjoyed walking around in her walker.

              My girls are exactly 2 years apart.

              With dd1, because I hardly carried her, not much weight training, I could only carry her for max 5 minutes & then got to put her on my lap, otherwise kanna backache and 手酸.

              I guess the weight training is over a period of time. dd2 put on weight consistently and since I carried her daily for such long hours, it's like weight training with gradual weight increases. She's 3.2 kg at birth.


              My mil likes walker. So dd1 in walker most of the times. With dd2, I hardly place her in walker since I prefer to carry her. When she's crawling, I would tail her around the house & vice versa. Very fun!

                    Ha ha....my girl, still chubby.....backside very meaty and I also loved to smack her butts πŸ˜‰
                    My dd1 is more chubby than dd2 now. She caught up last year but refused to let me smack her backside. No fun at all

                    I'm trying to pump dd2 up again, ε…»θƒ–θƒ– more cute la

                      U must hv missed those days, right? It happened when dd1 turned 2 6yrs old, i really wish 2 go back the time when she was a baby as I didn't spend much time with her. This is why I became SAHM for my dd2 to hv quality time with her at least first 2 yrs which I didn't do it 4 my dd1.
