- 2020-01-28My 5 week old baby has been chewing and sticking her tongue out, mostly after feeding, so I know it’s not due to hunger. She’s been doing this a lot recently.

When it comes to parenting,
my in laws are always want to have a say / telling us that we should do this, not that.

In laws are very traditional Chinese ppl who always think they are never wrong. Don’t believe that times have changed and new age parenting methods are completely diff now.

- 2020-01-29I worked for a private company for about 4 months and during that time I found out I was pregnant. I worked at this company before so when I came back I wasn’t offered to sign any contracts immediately which I didn’t mind. But after presenting the doctor’s letter stating I’m pregnant, they offered me to sign a part time contract instead. I can continue working for the company however they insisted that I switch to part time and will not get any benefits. They also said they can’t afford to pay me my maternity leave at all. Because I was pregnant I was worried for my finances and compromised to this. Still no contracts signed even after I requested for it. 2 months went by and now when I’m hitting my third trimester, they changed my working hours from 7 hours per day to now only 3 hours per day 5 days a week. I tried contacting tadm but the best they could do was mediate. And I can only file a claim to MOM after I’ve given birth. I’ve read online of many cases of working moms in Singapore stuck in this situation. Because of this stress, I’ve been in and out of the hospital and my baby is heavily affected. I need advise as a working woman and most importantly as a Mother. Also, what can we do to raise this issue?

- 2020-01-30Just want to rant.
Married to my husband and stayed at his place. The helper has been there for almost 20 years. She can cook and knows what everyone likes. But she really doesn’t clean well. But my hubby family are easy going and didn’t care much. Same for me until we have babies.
We hired additional helper to share the workload, but this old helper always complained to me about the new helper. This and that. And I also found my new helper likes to lie. So we sent the helper back.
After the new helper left, the old helper is doing what exactly she complained about the new helper. Always hide in the toilet when u call her. Always never clean the baby bottles properly. Always use the phone when seeing babies (she used to say my friends taking care of babies all don’t have phone one). Always take our videos and put on her social media. And sometimes take until not doing work. Ok. She might be thinking we cannot live without her now.
So I’m now looking for a new helper. Been looking for a while as I have 3 young kids. But no luck with helpers. Either don’t want to see 3 kids. Or don’t want to work with another helper.
Anyone has any recommendations for agents or agencies? Looking for ex sg helpers only as I prefer someone who can speak English or Chinese. But looking at only Myanmar or indo.

And I latch her pretty often during the day / through the night..
