Boot , it is good that u n ur hubby could mutually agree on you decision to quit. For me , hubs wants me to quit, but I don't wanna, so it is like my decision alone. Quite a difficult burden to bear . But I need to have my financial independence and so have to just go with it.
Btw mummies...
Liza you are so lucky to have your mum around to help out with baby. I wish I had my mum in Sg . I have to leave my Rhea at infant care when I join work.

Hang in there !! Feel free to vent on this forum if things get too much . You need to be physically and mentally strong for your Clara's sake.

Now I can understand what it is to look after baby all on your own !! Must commend how you are managing with Glenn. Since my mum left 2 days ago my Rhea is just clinging on to me all the time . I have difficult time to go take shower to go to toilet also .. Really missing my mum !!
I ordered from cupcake divinity . They were beautify , very dainty and delicious . You can check them out on Facebook and blog spot . They charged me 2.20 for mini cupcakes and 2.80 for standard sized ones . They charged $25 for delivery .

Your mil is openly antagonistic , and your hubby is aware of how she is. In my case my mil is just the opposite , talk very nice abs sweet sweet , but ultimately she will sweet talk every one to get her way . Very smart that way . She always pretend to be the good , simple person and...
Have you tried the colic hold to soothe her ? It works like magic on colicky babies.
My pediatrician advised Ridwind for my colicky baby, it does soothe her within half an hour
My Mil and Fil coming to stay for two months on next Saturday !! I'm so nervous how I'm going to manage . I'm not too fond of them. Plus earlier whenever they came I used to go to office and come home late to avoid them . Now I have to spend the whole day with them !!! Eeeeeeee …
Going crazy...

So far have only tried Johnson baby and pigeon products . Is Himalaya product any good ? Which one did you try ?

I understand what you saying about baby snatch . My mum also very possessive abt my baby , but somehow I don't mind , coz its my mum ;) but if my mil does like that I...

Try Tommie Tippie bottles . My bub loves it.
Also, you may want to wait till baby is really very hungry and then try introducing the bottle. Sometimes I let baby cry a bit so she gets tired , and then when I give her milk in bottle or breast and shd hungrily sucks.
Hi momo , pink,
I have been strapping baby on to the carrier on my own all the time . Quite easy actually . I strap in the carrier, set up one side. Place baby in and then close the other side . Then I clip on the top clips.
I would suggest you strap on baby and move about in the house a bit...
I've been using Ru yi oil also , but only on tummy , wil try on the feet now . Thanks for the tip Momo and Tcmy :)
I'll try elevation while feeding also . So far I fed lying down so baby is always lying flat .
Momo
Have you tried burping Glen in the middle of the feed. Maybe he got gas ...
I've used the Baby Bjorn carrier sometimes, just around the house to get Rhea used to it . So far no probs with her. She sleeps most of the time in it.

I've been feeding Little Rhea water for quite some time now. This was suggested by her pediatrician to feed her some warm water , when we...
I took my baby out with my mum . It is easier to handle when there is an extra pair of hands , coz she is not used to the pram. So of she wants to be carried , one of us can carry her and the other push the empty pram . Like today when I brought her out she started crying , so I picked her up...
I am somewhat on between feed on demand and on schedule . I try to feed every 2 to 3 hrs, but if rhea is sleeping or not in the mood , I don't force her, just express and keep .
