when to expect mmp claims

Hi mommas, anyone knows when we can expect to receive mmp money after submitting the claims? Will this be cash/cheque or will the govt deposit the amount into medisave?

Mine was given back through cash cheque because I had hospital insurance to cover all expenses due to my post-delivery complications. Most moms will receive through Medisave.

Need your opinion people

Hi guys. I'd like to hear your opinion on this if y'all mummies don't mind sharing. So i was eating at a restaurant with my husband and my 2.5 yr old sunshine. He's quite cranky because not enough rest and you can imagine how bad it is. He started to show tantrum here and there and i just figured it'll be easier if he was in his stroller so i told my husband to ask the service staff if we can bring our stroller in. This was how the conversation went, "Husband: Hi could we bring our stroller in because our son is quite sleepy and we need to lie him down." "Waitress: You can bring it in but you'll have to shift to another table because the one you're sitting might block the pathway." BEAR IN MIND THAT AT THIS POINT THE RESTAURANT WAS NEARLY EMPTY AND I'M 38 WEEKS PREGNANT AND OUR FOOD ALREADY CAME. However, we agreed because restaurant policy so i can understand. They helped us carry our plates to another table which is fine. Then the waitress told my husband that the pram is supposed to be placed at the side which is obviously very squeezy and my son was having really bad tantrum so it was easier for me to place the pram near me but it was along the pathway but NOT blocking anything because the pathway was quite big enough for 2 people to walk through. This is where i want you guys to tell me the truth...the situation was hectic and we were so exhausted by then. This waitress went up to us and told us to place the pram at the side which i exploded infront of the customers in the restuarant. I realized i might have raised my voice but no vulgarities were used. I mean like...can't you see how hectic the situation is and you just told us that we need to place the pram at the side without even considering that it is hard to move when my son is acting up like that? So yah i scolded her. Tell me. Whose fault??

Is it normal to hate parenthood? It's just hard. I find myself crying most of the time. I love my child, i do, really but it's just hectic and im so exhausted

I feel you. I quit my job in a June 2020 to look after my then 8 month old. She’s a handful now. Sometimes I lose my temper, to be honest. Super tired always screaming now that she’s learning to run away from me. Sometimes she doesn’t want to listen, and it gets on my nerves. However, it’s normal to be feeling this way. Post-partum baby blues. Just ensure you have someone to share your concerns with, like a friend, a sibling, a relative. Sometimes even a colleague can help you get through worse times. Watch videos on post-partum depression and how to watch out for symptoms. If you need help, please reach out to the necessary organisations. Remember, mental health is also the key to happiness. Plan ahead to go out, take a stroll in the park or the mall. Eat something you like. Get help from someone you trust to look after your baby for a couple of hours while you do your nails or hair. Take naps when baby is sleeping, then resume your chores. Take a breather. Watch Netflix, chick-flicks, Korean drama, whatever that rocks your socks before parenthood.

Heartburn issues

I have been having heartburn everytime after a light meal. I'm no longer able to have a heavy meal like 3 times a day based on my doctor's advise I should split it to 5 smaller meals. I'm currently 8mth pregnant and my heart burn has been giving difficulty breathing and consuming meals like meat or rice. I had to puke everytime my heartburn cant settle down after 30mins. I'm losing weight as well. I used to have hyperemesis during my 1st and 2nd trimester but was treated previously with steroid. Medication sometimes doesn't work well for the heartburn. #pleasehelp #firstbaby #advicepls

eat smaller meals like ur gynae recommended, it helps

Cny visiting with baby.

Would love to stay home and skip all visiting but we can't. Have to go for obligatory CNY visiting (while adhering to the 5 visitors a day rule of cos) but am very very very worried about anyone, whether immediate family or relatives or friends, having interaction with my 7-month-old baby. Anyone feels the same? Also, my FIL takes train to and fro Chinatown for work every day. I'm seriously not keen for him to have maskless interaction with baby but he's gonna be offended. Are you mummies okay with family and relatives interacting maskless with your young unvaccinated children? If you aren't, how will you tell them? #pleasehelp

my fil also takes train to and fro chinatown! and my baby is 2.5 months old. no choice for me personally, hard to run from family obligations. just politely ask them to wash hands or not to go too near baby (alternatively you can baby wear the whole time to avoid interaction)

Maternity Underwear

I wear g-string most of the time. So, just wondering if I should prepare maternity underwear and stop wearing g-string once i delivered?

I am not sure. But I bought the V cut ones from Shopee. because I was comfortable with them.
