2019-04-15Hi all, my baby is 3 months old (2 months old corrected since she was 4 weeks premature). Right now I feel like she's behind on many milestones even for a 2 month old. She can hardly lift her head at all during tummy time, doesn't notice her hands or do anything with her hands, doesn't really focus on me when I'm talking to her (sometimes she does but usually doesn't) and very rarely smiles. Is that a problem? What can I do to help her catch up? Should she see a doctor?

2019-04-15My baby girl turned 5mths old and she’s growing very attached to our helper who has been taking care of her for 3mths now. Our girl will always look out for her and cry uncontrollably when we carry her until our helper takes over, this is especially so when she’s sleepy and wants her to carry her to sleep - then her cries stops magically. I’ve just returned to work and I’m extremely upset & hurt by this. What can we do? Our helper is doing a great job but at the same time I feel hurt and upset that my baby treats me like a stranger and we don’t want to be overly reliant on our helper as well - Upset 1st time mother :(

2019-04-17Hi all, my maternity leave at the current company is ending in 2 weeks. I just got a new job offer and would like to change job. Has anyone been in the same situation? Would it be possible if I don't come back to the current work or do I still have to serve 1 full month notice period after coming back? I just feel like I already handed over my work prior to the maternity leave and they're used to not having me there already, then I just come back for a short while to catch up and then leave again. Feels a bit weird. If possible I'd just like to take annual leave until my next job starts so I get a bit more time with the little one. Would it be allowed? And do you think it's irresponsible to do so?

2019-04-17I got married to my husband unwillingly cos I got pregnant the plan was to wait for another year when i am totally ready to settle down with him but things happen. And when I told him I was pregnant he doesn't seem to be happy about it. Why am I not happy cos he told me to keep the baby, and me I'm having mixed emotions about not keeping the baby cause I am not ready to be a mother plus husband got a baggage to take care of,his daughter from previous marriage. and his ex wife debts that he had to pay for. every month after he gets his salary all the money is gone to debts and bills etc. Now I am pregnant and he can't even help me buy my maternity clothes and prepare things for the baby arrival. He is financial super tight, and everytime he gaves me money which is not much I always try to safe it every month and I seriously can't buy my own things. And that money he gave me I actually keep it for him so that he can use it when he is in need

2019-04-18Just reflecting on my day ?? I'm here to show you that it's possible to raise businesses and babies! When you have dreams to make a reality, you've to get out on your own way and do what it takes to achieve them! A lot of pple ask how I make time to read, plan my day, clean, cook, take care of my babies, etc. — But to me it's not making the time! It's not a chore, it's what I do. It's MY JOB. I wake up an hour before my family or stay up an hour late to do the few things it takes to keep my business going— because there honestly isn't much to social media side. ? Most days, the house is a wreck. My to do list is endless. Yet, I still manage to check in with my team and make a post on social media. I've decided : This year will be bettering my life, — becoming a better mother and wife. Crushing goals and dreams and running with babes that wants the same! While also, putting my marriage and family before all else. Make a CHOICE to make a CHANGE. Only YOU can make that happen! ?

2019-04-20Hi I'm a new mum, just tested positive last night. May I know what to look out for in terms of food intake and also when to go for my first check up?

2019-04-20I was recommended by a friend to start monitoring my basal body temperature 2 months ago. During February I didn't measure and just have more regular sex during my ovulation window. Didn't conceive successfully. In March I went to get myself a basal thermometer and started tracking every morning when I wake up. When I see a slight spike we will try and even on days when it is 'low chance of getting pregnant' as suggested by an App. True enough, tested positive last night. Found it quite useful so decided to share. ?

2019-04-20I’ve taken medication to stop my breastmilk production 1 week ago. Though my breasts are not badly engorged anymore they are still filling up slowly and I get lumpy swollen breasts after 4 days which then needs to be hand expressed or pumped for short 2-3mins to alleviate the discomfort. I’ve also taken sage and ordered tea to stop milk production. How long does it take for my production to dry completely??!
