Baby blues: Post-partum depression

by Kit on August 11, 2010

When I discovered I was pregnant the first time and the second time, I literally jumped with joy!
However, I realize that some people may not be as happy about their second or third etc pregnancy especially if they are having family, money or relationship problems.
Mothers in Malaysia would have read and sympathized with the 35 [...]

Why you should visit the Maternity Exchange in Singapore

If you read my fashion frustrations either as a pregnant stay-at-home Mother or a pregnant full-time working Mother, I bet you’re in the same boat when you’re pregnant too i.e. wearing ONLY 5-7 maternity dresses or suits to get you through the week or start stealing from the Hubby’s wardrobe!
It isn’t really a problem if [...]

REVIEW: The Memory Keeper’s Daughter by Kim Edwards

I was quite hesitant to read this book when I was pregnant because it’s about a child who has Down Syndrome.
The Chinese are highly superstitious about stuff like this i.e. if you look or think about anything ugly, abnormal etc when you’re pregnant, you may likely get a child like that.
Then, I remembered a cartoon [...]

Week 30 – Preparing for a newborn…again

OMG…where have the weeks gone? Compared to my previous pregnancy, I’m definitely very, very late in preparing for the baby’s arrival this time around. Honestly, it’s been REALLY TOUGH handling a toddler-cum-preschooler, work and home on my own…
And I can’t sleep well because the baby moves rather vigorously. And I get up to pee at [...]

Week 27 – Bleeding after peeing

I woke up to pee early in the morning at 6.00 am and was shocked to see some blood (which looks like menstrual blood) in the toilet and also on the tissue. As the bleeding stopped, I went back to bed.
This morning, I told my Mum about it and she said it could be:
a) our [...]

Week 20 – How to entertain a toddler at home

When his kindergarten went on summer break, I had to face the ‘challenge’ spending more than 2 weeks HOME ALONE with the tot since we decided to fly home later.
Since I had the luxury of having her toddler spend a full day at the kindy, I was quite nervous about being a stay-at-home Mother again [...]

Week 19 – A boy? A girl? It doesn’t matter

I was all psyched up for my doctor’s appointment this week because I’m hoping to find out if it’s a boy or a girl…
With passport in hand and a note that I’ll need the letter for flying soon, we went back to the VIP Maternity Hospital.
They couldn’t find my personal folder (containing my medical [...]

Week 16 – Pimples, pain and predictions…

Hubby and I had a quiet Father’s Day weekend at home, no special lunch or dinner due to a thunderstorm…at home and outside
When we talked about the second baby, I couldn’t help but compare the differences between the first pregnancy and this second one:
At 16 weeks this time around:
- I only feel slight [...]

Having a baby: Is it the gynae or the hospital?

Now that we’ve decided to go home for the delivery and confinement, I’m back to my original problem of: choosing a gynae. As I gripe about this, I must remember that Albert Einstein said, “The only constant is change”
Well, it will be 4 years since I had my first child, I can’t very well [...]

13 weeks – Girl or boy?

Dear baby,
I am sorry if I have not been talking to you much these past weeks – a nasty phlegm which has me choking keeps me really quiet. The nausea doesn’t help either but I promise you I’ll talk to you more once all this is over!
First, you’re one tough baby to feed: when I [...]

10 weeks – Hello baby!

Last Friday, I asked the boy out of the blue:
Me: When the baby comes out, you share your toys with the baby, ok?
Boy: OK (nods three times. Really cute coz his nods are rather mechanical)
Me: Wah, really? You’ll share your toys?
Boy: Yesss
Me: Books leh…share your books with the baby also ok?
Boy: OK (nods three times.)
Me: [...]
