- 2019-07-30Hi all,
Have a happy problem of having too much frozen BM. Baby is currently 3.5mths and I have run out of storage space for freezing. Already bought an additional freezer but that's been filled up alrdy. Just wondering if there are moms out there that are open to BM donation or if anyone is aware of channels where I can bless away frozen BM.
I understand there is a milk bank in KKH but too much hassle to go through additional screening tests just to donate BM.
Hope to get some ideas to solve this issue ?

it really hurts in a way ppl r still so judgemental...
there was one lady who asked how old was i n i replied 22 she told me i was so young too young in fact. n another mom overheard n told her 21yo daughter "better study hard if not you end up like her."
& fyi i WANTED to be a young mom, i didnt want to have a big generation gap with my kids yknow. i hate how ppl r saying the only reason i got married n have a kid now is bc shotgun or unplanned but in fact it isnt!!
my husband n i actually alr planned to rom bc we applied bto tgt n have been tgt since we were 14yos!
sigh i feel so judged every time i go out... sometimes i wish i look more "chao lao" (old looking)

But after 3 months of binging, now at 14 weeks, I'm beginning to hate food. The thought and sight of food makes me sick and nauseating. My hubby would force me to eat but I cannot even finish half the portion. I cant drink milk either. Is it safe for baby? Cuz I know we need to eat :/

My husband called them not once but alot of times and they didnt pick up. Their last seen on whatsapp was recently right after he called them. I know them so well that when they are out anywhere, going back home early is so not them even with small children. I wont say I hate but I never really liked them from the start even bfre we got married.

- 2019-08-02I feel like I’m a devil mummy. I start to hate my first born now and then. I felt that I don’t really love her. I know I’m responsible in guiding her and teaching but despite numerous reminder not to teach her sibling to do unnecessary stuff and behave like a monkey in the public she just take it to the deaf ears.
At time I really wants to love her more but all she does is cry and cry. Things she lost out to her sibling she starts to cry and she cry literally everyday! I felt so annoyed whenever she cries. When told not to play with her sibling she just refused to listen and insist playing when ended up losing she cry again.
In public when told her not to do so yet she literally just do it to show she is the boss. And today I can’t take it anymore that I actually slapped both of them in public. I feel so bad and I’m really a bad mom. In their eyes I’m like a devil Mummy. I don’t know what to do with them anymore nor teach them Cos no matter how I teach they just won’t listen. What should I do? And it not that I don’t spend time with them. I made the effort to bring them out on weekly activities despite without their daddy. But seems like their behaviour is just like such a way.
I feel like I’m on the mist of breaking down and I starting to hate her for being so ignorant.

- 2019-08-03I'm currently in my 15 weeks, and had a recent check up cause I had been spotting. Doctor mentioned that it is due to low placenta which cause the spotting and it will be on and off throughout until the placenta moves up or something. Doctor gave me duphaston to eat. At times, I just can't help worrying as I had 2 prior miscarriage before this. Even though doctor says the chances of miscarriage is really low cause baby seems really healthy but I just can't help to worry.
I'm still having on and off spotting and I've been feeling lethargic even though it is my second trimester. I stayed off from work during my entire first trimester and only returned to work recently. But I feel like I'm burdening everyone at work, cause it is very limited things that I can do. First trimester had a blood clot which sticks to the pregnancy sac so also had spotting till the blood clot dissolved.
I feel like the pregnancy is stressing me out mentally more than physically.
Just ranting to get things off my mind.
- 2019-08-03I'm in my 40 weeks and yet to give birth. Doc did mentioned that I might need to go through induction of labour (IOL). At the moment, I don't feel any contraction. Is it normal? I'm worried.
