FF, you're going to be super busy...fortunately you have MIL and her sister to help out...or logistics at home will be terrible. quickly transfer your daughters to a school here so that they get adjusted before the babies are born.
Come March 2018, once the twins are born, you'll be kept very busy, helping to sterilise milk water bottle, wash baby nappy, etc.
By then, there will be 7 ladies in your house :
(Wife + 4 girls, mother-in-law, maid to help out) -

I felt my pants somehow less tight this week, most probably due to cut down snacking during the day n night as I eat better for lunch.
My body response fast to calorie, I can easily drop near 1kg if I have less sugar intake in a day . I like protein coz no impact on my weight. -
do those packet coffee contain palm oil? i know of someone who drinks 1 packet daily and she doesn’t eat much…but put on weight because of the 3 in 1.
hubby has reduced the amount of sugar for our coffee. so we are used to it. kopi o using traditional coffee powder. -

I am more wary of the other ingredients in the coffee which I can't pronounce the names :nailbite:

If I am not wrong, coffee beans are roasted with margarine and sugar for local coffee powder.do those packet coffee contain palm oil? i know of someone who drinks 1 packet daily and she doesn't eat much...but put on weight because of the 3 in 1.

I love coffee for its fragrance. Maybe I should just smell it, rather than drink it :rotflmao: -
Jennifer:
i buy palembang coffee powder. it's a mixture of 2 different beans. i love to sit at the table to smell the coffee and slowly sip it. without this cup of coffee, i would be a zombie.

For me, Me time is spending time outdoors. It’s rejuvenating connecting with nature. Watching the sunrise and the sunset. A totally different vibe from the city. You ought to try it too!

I never believed in maids even though I grew up with one when I lived with my parents before marriage.

The only people who are in the house will be DD1,DD2,DD3,DD4,Mommy and me.MIL will return to Malaysia after wife's confinement is over and both young DDs are settled down.Already thought of their names and almost everyone is wildly excited about the 2 younger girls except for DD2.Even DD1 is promoted to Big Zehzeh and she is quite happy about it.
Both DDs are coming to study in SG next year because their exams are in 2 months time.Don't wish to give them nasty surprises by suddenly bringing them to attend school in SG.
Talked to both DDs over a car ride today to look at their future school.Told them gently but firmly that with or without the two meimeis,my love for them will be no more or no less than what I will give to the 2 younger girls.There will be no preferential treatment in our family.Advised them to help and look after Mommy as she is busy with teaching job and carrying 2 meimeis at the same time and getting transferred to another school in 2018.Assured them that being zehzehs is just the beginning of a fun time in our family.Grandma will be here to help out too.
As for fatigue,actually I seldom felt it probably thanks to my training in the elite force.My peers used to nickname me \"Energizer\" because I can keep going on endlessly in training without stopping.I only felt the fatigue when I finally stopped.Nobody wanted to run with me because when they had enough,I kept on running.
Come to think of it.....When DD3 and DD4 reach 10 years old,DD1 and DD2 are already 22. -
Fish fingers,
How is your wife going to cope when her mum returns to Malaysia after the confinement? 4 kids…2 newborns. If she is transferred to a school nearer home, it will be easier to get around. Next year, there will be several major changes. Twins studying here, wife giving birth to twins, transferring to another school. Since you have assured the girls you will still love them as much, then you can’t be paying extra attention to #2 or she will continue to sulk.
When my daughter sulks when she can’t get her way, I ignore her. This way, she will learn that 1) sulking doesn’t mean she will get her way and 2) I won’t pay attention when she does so. -

Yeah,my weakness is DD2.Argh!Fish fingers,

Eg,DD2 caught me going out yesterday after her shower as I was leaving the house to pump petrol at the gas station.She wanted to tag along but I said no.She pouted and sat down there with her face as black as Justice Bao.I told DD1 to stay at home to look after her sis.I totally bo-chap her.DD2 was chided by DD1 for being unsensible.
Found that DD1 has became more sensible and learnt how to chide DD2 when she pouts/sulks.She has became also more compliant to my instructions.More in the Big Zehzeh role.Even my MIL commented that DD1 became better well behaved after coming out to live in SG.As for DD2,maybe I can get my wife to talk to her about her pouting and self-centered behaviour.DD2 knows my limits so she will not dare to push too far.
MIL will make arrangements to come out again.She may not be going back to Malaysia after all until everything has stabilised at home.
