- 2021-05-03I was a freelance tutor cum quasi-SAHM but recently transitioned into a full-time working mum. Both of my children (2 under 2) are in childcare and infant care. Thing is, children in infant care and childcare fall sick easily, almost every month. With stricter safety measures implemented in schools, teachers are quick to call parents up at the sound of a slight cough or congested nose.
The recovery of phlegmy cough or runny nose takes more than a week, means parents would also need to work out alternative childcare arrangements for that period as most of us only have six days of childcare leave and that is not enough to cover our leave to look after our children when they cannot go to school.
For working mummies who don’t have alternative childcare arrangement (i.e. maid, mother or mother-in-law), how do you manage it without tapping so much on your leave?
I just started a new position with a steel learning curve and it is challenging for me to juggle with my children falling sick frequently.

- 2021-05-04Hi mummies. Do you think i have gestational diabetes as shown?
- 2021-05-04My baby is the first grandchild for both sides. So both our parents' houses currently do not have any baby stuff. Not sure how baby is going to rest when visiting.
EDIT: Baby won't be staying overnight at either place at all. At most we will sneak out for short 1-hour couple time when baby naps at either parents' house. That's about it.
There also isn't any spare bed at either house. Sofas are the old school hard solid Chinese style kind. Not comfy. 😅
Questions:
Will I need to have baby stuff left at BOTH grandparents' houses?
Do I need to buy travel playpen or bouncer etc. to bring over when visiting? As in something for baby to lie down in.
What are the essentials I will need?
How do you guys manage visiting your parents' place with a baby?
Thanks! 💐

- 2021-05-04I NEED SPACE! Used to like my MIL a lot, but after having kids I find her extremely annoying to the point where I didnt realise that the way I speak/ attitude to her changed, and even sighed at the thought when she comes back from work. Currently living in my In-laws place while my husband and I wait for our BTO and will only be ready in 4 years' time. Have 2kids (3yo, 5months) and I find my MIl to be annoying after she tried to interfere with almost everything from parenting, to food that I feed my child (eg: dont feed the kids rice dishes when sick, dk what kind of logic is that, passed down from her mum) and more. Like trying to convince me to sleep train my younger one earlier cuz he still wakes up to latch at night as he cosleeps with me(preciously tried to convince me to do it to my older boy). I refused to though it will make my life easier.
Cant stand her, and I feel like im slowly becoming the bad daughter in law, who shows attitude. Im trying my very best to control be polite, but sometimes I unknowingly became sarcastic. Help!!!

- 2021-05-05Hi all, baby, 2weeks old, has blocked nose when sleeping in air-con room.
Used Sterimar and sucked out with nasal aspirator (lollababy and tollyjoy), but no mucus sucked out.
Question: how long do you press on the Sterimar per application? I usually press it for 0.5-1s as I'm afraid too much water blow into his nose.
The block nose seems to be affecting baby's sleep as he keeps waking up from the congestion.
Any advices?

- 2021-05-05Hi mummies! I am currently 23 weeks and having a visible round belly(average body size). I like to wear body hugging dresses which makes my belly even more bigger and noticeable. However, I always find it hard for people to automatically give up seats for me (most of time people are not on the phone or sleeping, I am pretty sure they make an eye contact with me when I entered). I have hard time balancing especially on buses, mrt and I am too shy to ask for a seat. Normally my mother or my husband have to make a big fuss on how inconsiderate people are, then some will just stand and walk away. I try not to go out as much as possible even so, I will normally take grab, but once in a while I will need to run an errand and have to take public transport. Since young, I have always give up my seats to elderly and pregnant ladies that's why I am quite shock at how our society behaves now. Do mummies experiencing this as well?
- 2021-05-05Hi, Have anyone experienced a cyst only being identified on the 3rd trimester? Also did you go for normal birth after that? Or you had to remove it? Or what actually You did. I’m pretty confused as I went for a dermoid cyst removal in 2019. And I’m currently pregnant 28weeks. Today’s scan showed a 9.9cm Cyst on the right ovary. Dr couldn’t answer how come all along they didn’t identify that. So I’m puzzled. Also I had a normal delivery 8years ago. So I’m not keen on doing a c-sect.
Kindly share your review.

- 2021-05-06My 3mo+ baby started crying inconsolably since last few days in evening. I try to feed, take a walk, take him out but nothing seems to work. He cries until he gets tired enough to fall asleep. He takes about 2 naps during the day and this starts around 6:30pm. I don’t think it’s colic because his tummy is fine otherwise, no changes to my diet and he is completely breastfed. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you

With regards to the above article, does anyone know from first hand experience whether there are any subsidies for parents where Dad is PR and Mom is on LTVP and the baby needs to be in NICU. Just asking to prepare only. We are still trying to conceive and want to be ready for all scenarios:)
Also if anyone don’t mind sharing their experience with insurance companies when their baby had congenital conditions, that would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻🙏🏻

- 2021-05-06I am currently at week 8 of my pregnancy and need to decide whether want to do Down Syndrome screening during the next gynae appt. I am 30 years old. Understand that below 35 consider low risk, and some mummies will not opt for the screening. Still not sure whether I want to do it? If yes, should I go for Oscar or other more precise and expensive one? Need some advices from those who have gone through this stage.

- 2021-05-06Any one of you is subsidised patient of nuh??
Today my appt, the gynae told me for subsidised patient, if i choose elective csec , it needs the dr approval and is not within my choice.
I was quite pissed because if this is true, then they should have told me since my first appt and not now.
As such, i would like to enquire is this gynae speaking factually or not?
And if it is, i would like to ask any other hospital that is subsidised and the dr will not be so pro natural. Its irritating enough that i am scared of contraction pain and what not as a first time mum also the kind that will cry just becox of injection but people like them jus keep saying natural ok de la no pain. Dun worries...
Everyone phobia is different i hope they can respect my phobia. Is very irritating and i feel that i am talking to walls.
Also appreciate if anyone could share switching to pte from now (week 23) to delivery and warded, how much would it be? As a cheapest maybe associate consultant and also b ward. As compared to subsidised only.

- 2021-05-06Hi, mummies with young children, what is your take on this heightened alert? I have a 1 year old, ever since the heightened alert announcement I had put many of my plans to bring my LO out on hold, including going to outdoor parks/attractions etc during the weekdays. I am currently having break from work and felt like I am wasting my leave. Had staycation booked this coming weekend and the heightened alert kind of dampened my mood. Kind of kiasi as my hub and I are not vaccinated and baby still young. Trying to strike a balance between being vigilent and allowing time to explore SG (as per what I planned initially when I took leave so that can go out and avoid any crowd, now already wasted 4 weekdays T.T). Can share your views?

- 2021-05-07Hi mummies. I went for my first check up on the 26th March and I was measuring 5 weeks and 5 days. My next appt was supposed to be 10th may. However I started implantation bleeding yesterday so we immediately rushed to the doctor. Was given the hormone jab and hormone pills. Doctors also said that the embryo was not measuring the right week supposedly 7 weeks but I was only measuring 6 weeks and 1 day.
Was sent home on 24 hour bed rest and doctor said try not to walk around too much.
I’m still super worried... any mummies that experienced the same thing?

- 2021-05-07Hi mummies, my baby is 1yo but she is still not eating solid well. What can I do to make her willing to eat? I started tw when she was 6mo. At about 8-9mo, she started to reject being spoon fed. Totally not willing to open her mouth at all so i convert to blw. But until now, she is only willing to eat biscuits and corn. She will throw all other food that i offer on the floor. How can i stop her from throwing the food? Tried telling her not to throw but it seems useless. Any baby like that also? How to make her to be interested in eating new food?
My mil keep telling me that other babies can finish big bowl of porridge by 1yo but mine is still not eating and keep blaming me that i let my baby “play food” so now she dont want to eat..... is it really my fault? 😢

- 2021-05-08Anyone here who does spinning and continued during their pregnancy? During my first tri, a doctor told me to stop cos of its intensity. Now that I’m in my second tri, another doctor (who also spins and understands what spinning is) gave me the green light to continue with it. I’ve done my own research too, and certain articles would say that it’s safe while others would say that it might get dangerous cos it can get really vigorous. I’ve been spinning for years and a regular rider (and spinning makes super happy) so I would love to hear outputs from other mummies who spins as well!
