In january I had a ct scan and incidentally found a polyp in the uterus. I had an ultrasound done 3 mths later with my gynae and there are 2 polyps, 1cm and 1.2cm Im so worried because it seem like it is growing so fast and suddenly there are 2. I had a d&c one year go so I dont know if it could...

Sorry abt your loss... It really sucks to be forced into a decision. Forcing myself into getting married was depressing too, especially into one that was doomed to fail. I'm so glad I didn't marry him in the end; I can think of more ways than 1 how miserable I'd be. I was toldnid be on my own...

safety and privacy issues on FB I saw that my ex has put up many of my son's photos that he's taken from the various times they met. He has also put up these pictures on his facebook account. Do i have the right to get him to remove it? I don't want him to accuse me of finding fault with him...

I sympathise with you. It is unfortunate that your husband doesn't involve himself in your son's life, he will regret that one day. In fact, my brother is like that too; so his wife decided to get a job and now, both of then neglect the child and leave the parenting to my folks. BUT my folks do...

Hi hi!! Congratulations on your decision to be a mummy to your little growing darling. Now that you have not told your folks about the pregnancy, you are still on a roller coaster ride, mainly brought about by fear of the unknown. I'll share my experience and you judge for yourself. But if...

So will you be continuing your studies meanwhile? Actually, with regards to parents helping out, believe me, you will need all the help you can get. I thought I could do this on my own, work, look after my son, support him etc; i was quite wrong. In fact, I am glad I didn't eventually shift...

I guess all the single parents have this common issue of addressing to our kids where te missing parent is; it's also a problem I'm tackling, wondering if I should let my son acknowledge his father. He's still very young so it is not yet an immediate issue. I guess if u want to leave the...

Congratulations!! It's really great that your parents give you the support you need given the circumstances that typical tradition folks frown upon. It's really important to stay positive during this period of hormonal and emotional trying times. I also agree it is not necessary to get married...

Hahah sounds like you've got your boy under good control! Now s still doesn't understand anything much, when I scold him he will smile at me; I don't know how to react, laugh or scold more! I beat his hand when he grabs bowls, cups, wires etc; I flick his mouth when he bites weird stuff; I yell...

thanks for the encouragement ah!! Ya la it's tough on us doing this on our own, but I guess for many of us single parents, this is when we really see the love our family can give us and how much they are willing to help. I'm very touched with my parents. I always thought they only know how to...

I guess as single parents, we tend to put in more effort naturally because we know our kids are already missing out on one parent, that is what the culture pressures us to do. I'm very grateful my parents are of great help, ironically especially my mum. Even though she was my source of stress...

Exactly, imagine being together for the sake of status and 'face' issue then having to face a person i'd rather not live with is a torture. I'll probably end up in a divorce anyway. BUT, I do not know why, and if someone can enlighten me; is so much more pressure put on unwed single mums as...

yup, my mum is finally seeing it that I can do a good enough job without a husband driving me mad, except she keeps saying that my son will question about his father when he's older etc. I'm already trying my best, I really want the best for my son, and I'm putting in whatever time and effort...

Wow I admire what you are doing for your girls!! Not many men will be willing to take up the responsibility abandoned by the mother. As for your ex, she is best never to see the girls again, really not fit to be called a mother! And your girls are better off forgetting someone who can give birth...

First of all, there is no way we can get together again and I made that clear to him when he accused me of allowing him to see my son so he will woo me back. I think he might love my son or probably because my son is their family's first and only grandchild; but I can't say for sure coz he might...
