        :salute: Greetings to all great FTWM


        πŸ˜“ Finally finished reading this thread... Mummies' worries and hardwork.

        I just stumbled upon this thread, didn't know newbies got to report here. I have been busy browsing and posting for many months :oops:

        I'm a FTWM staying in BP with DD 2yrs and DS 1yr and no maid. Prefers to manage my household personally.

        Of course, if $$$ allows, I would rather stay home and be SAHM... Spends quality time with my kids and cooking for them is a bliss. Have to work at least another 15yrs to pay off our housing loan, contribute to household and DD/DS expenses. Good thing about working in my current job is having colleagues to share their ideas on growing up kids and flexibility in taking leaves in case of child emergency.

        I'm one of the mummies wishing ToTo would knock on my door and tell me *Mummy, you can finally be SAHM* :rahrah:

        :lovesite:

              :celebrate: I fully agree with this :lol: I will either drive myself or the kids crazy if I ever become a SAHM. I need to be a FTWM to gain sanity.

                    Yeah lor if u do like that one then surely kids will hate u lah πŸ˜› now I know why some ladies dont wanna be SAHM even though they have a choice πŸ˜‰

                    Yah, so now you know. One man's meat is another man's poison.

                    Among my circle of friends, 9 out of 10 will consider themselves poor candidates for SAHM.

                    Well most of us would have considered the possibility of being a SAHM at 1 pt or another but we very quickly realise we dun have the patience or temperament to be able to take on that role.

                    So for the safety and sanity of everyone, we shall remain FTWMs.
