I enjoyed my confinements... mostly because I really wasn't confined. My dh took care of my all three times so I got to eat my fav foods and go out if I getting stressed out by staying at home.

I'm really glad I didn't have to follow the traditional practices. I think I'd have gone mad and died of hunger (I don't like confinement foods)

i enjoyed my confinement period when there's yummy food like vinegar pig trotter which my aunt made it. its simply great. i just missed and love her cooking so much! and also my mummy who bought tonics and all. but, the weather during my confinement period wasnt pleasant thou.. it was always humid which made me perspire lots and thus mood swings here n there.

For #1, not happy. Did not get the birth I wanted, felt robbed and cheated of the whole birthing process. Think I was in mild depression.

For #2, very happy. Ate well, observe only what I wanted to observe in traditional confinement. Showered and washed my hair when I couldn't tahan.

Both times, I had no CL, no visitors (I didn't want any) everything else is the same. For me, it boils down to how my birthing went and how I bonded with my baby.

Not happy...I took care of bb myself n does everything myself. For my #1, MIL supposed to help, she'll cook the same dish to last me thru the entire day. MIL hospitalised after few days due to her own health prob, FIL, SILs took turn to buy me food from outside (even McChicken), when no one comes along, i'll survive on bread with egg...My auntie bought cod fish, bird's nest n other food to help me build up my health but end up MIL cooked for all family members. At the end of confinement, we're still expected to gv ang bao to all those who had bought me food.....Worst still MIL decides how much we shld gv....Wat the....

DD #2, I beri suay, dh had an affair. I left home with both dds on the 2nd day....my mum busy working oni able to cook tonic soup for me once... haizzz so both confinement not done properly....:wong7::wong14:
