Balancing work and family

To working mums with a young baby/babies, how do you balance work and family? I feel like my priority has largely shifted from work to my young baby. I feel bad because I'm not able to give more attention to work right now and it is unfair to my employer. But ever since I have a baby, I realised that work isn't everything. I want to be financially independent but family is just as important to me if not more. Any mummies can share your experiences and struggles?

I m working in childcare my boy goes along with me. day in day out I try to manage time give as much time I can. sometimes feel low as I have lot of chores cooking cleaning laundry dishes sorting house , buying groceries but at night daily 1 hrs I give him full time. its just me and my boy.

Hi mummies! How much cost for ligation (female surgery) in SG ##advicepls #Second_Baby

I really feel you on this, it is such a personal decision and I am glad you are looking into it properly before deciding. I do not have the exact figures off the top of my head, but what I did when I was researching similar things was to call up KKH and a couple of private gynae clinics directly to ask for their rates, because costs can vary quite a bit depending on whether you go restructured or private and whether you use Medisave. Hopefully other mummies here who have gone through it can share their actual out-of-pocket experience lah, that would be the most helpful for you.

Hi mummies. Need your thoughts in this. My child is 3 and is a picky eater. She only demands for milk the whole day and would not want to eat a proper meal other than unhealthy snacks such as crackers, chocolates. Food that is salty and sweet. She doesnt want to eat rice or noodles at home but good thing we send her to sch, atleast she gets to eat a proper meal. So… i hope you can give your thoughts on this to help me with my 3year old.

my son is almost 3 and has been a picky eater since he contracted hfmd from playgroup. before , he ate basically everything , from complete meal (rice, protein , veg) , snacks and all. but after the hfmd episode with ulcers in his mouth , he just didn't eat like before. then we realised that maybe his appetite has decreased as he was still still adapting with sch at that time. teachers would feedback that he didn't eat much or at all. I did trial and error of cooking different food for him and realised he loves fried rice. so I made him fried rice with different ingredients inside every day. sometimes he just wants plain rice so I'll just let him eat plain rice. he eats plain rice with a lil soup at sch and manages to finish it teachers say. although seems like pitiful , I don't mind as long as he eats. he drinks full cream milk twice daily so I make him eat rice even if it's plain. once in a while , snacks or biscuits. unless he requests to eat fast food like mcd , we normally won't buy it. cut down on the snacks if you can.

I noticed that my 12 month boy likes to bite my shoulder when i carry him. I have a few bites marks. He doesnt do it with anybody else, only me. Is this normal behaviour? Does anyone experience this?

it’s normal. mine doesn’t bite on mine but on my husband’s and my father. likely he’s teething and has his “favourites” to bite

Binder and socks

Hi mummies, is it required to wear compression socks and binder for natural birth? Would you buy from hospital or recommend to get it elsewhere prior to admission? Any recommendations? :)

Hospital made me wear the compression socks when I was admitted at 25 weeks for gastro issue. It was troublesome and tbh didn't help much. After giving birth, I wore this brand called, Aulora - the socks and tights. It was hella expensive but it helps me. I was skeptical too at first but gave it a try and it works.

Black spots on baby clothes

Hi mummies, I often get black spots or marks on my baby’s clothing. Have you experience that before ? It’s so wasteful and a pity to throw them away 😭😭

Black spots on baby clothes

It’s mold. Usually appears because clothings is not dried properly or milk/food stains not removed immediately. You can try bzubzu 2 in 1 detergent to see if it works.
