Did i really look like teens? This make me not confident and worried. Especially now as i am being mom.And my kids growing up too. My 4yo daughter just starting preschool and i am not confident when attending to school with my daughter. I just irritated people/other parents looking at me as i am under age.Mostly i ask my hubby to go to school. Some people maybe want to look young. But my looks this is to much not suitable with my real age. And make me so not confident as being mom. Any mummy have same experience like me? And how to overcome this?

2017-05-09My 6 months old sleep routine sudden changes, he now sleep in late like 11pm plus and sleep through he night until 9am plus to 10am plus. He is not waking up for milk in between I have to feed him and he will continue to sleep. During afternoon he will be very active but at night he got problem sleeping and that cause him to sleep late .. I try to comfort him but he still don't want to sleep. I guess is due to him teething.

Lastly, apart from taking medication and seeking therapy exercise has been helping me cope with my mental illness. Join me and start your journey today. Wait no more!

And our new bto they will say to my husband you should do this and don't do that.. They nv think that I am staying there too got the guts tell me la.. why tell my husband as if he living alone. All in laws like that ar? Irritating to the max. They say "Your house is big hor next time can rent out earn money" I m thinking my house is not a house is a Home don't like staying with stranger... I also not wanting them to live with me. Not my family members too. I don't want conflict...They will ask their sister daughter or my husband sister to come and stay over at my home. Why must come like they no house to stay. Really their face so thick. What can I do? My husband is abit hard to reject if they talk like that. And they don't come talk to me I can't reply, they talk to my husband. I just waiting for them to approach me.

2017-05-11I try so hard to be that "normal" mom/person. When in reality, I'm nowhere near. Simple things like getting out of bed, brushing my teeth and keeping to a routine maybe an effortless thing for you. That isn't the case for me. It takes so much more effort and by the time i get out of bed, brush my teeth and wash my face I'm exhausted. I won't give up, so i decided to run and keep running. Along the way many passerby stared at me. I think its because i was running with my 1 year old son in a pram at 4pm under the hot sun. I tunnelled vision my way through to reach to my destination. Simply because there is a bigger picture which you can't see. I need to get out and run to ride through the peak of my anxiety. #me #running #anxiety #fight #mom #depression #searchingm3 You can help to create awareness for others in need by sharing and liking the facebook page to show your support. @Searchingm3
2017-05-11Hi mummies, just checking what kind of fresh milk can I take during pregnancy? Am in second trimester. Any kind of fresh milk like HL/MEIJI etc or only certain brands?
2017-05-12Hi mummies. My mum offer to help me take care of my lo once I go back to work. But the issue is that I find that she like not really comfortable with handling my bm. Cause when I asked her to prepare the milk such as taking out from the fridge and pour into bottle and heat up, she would rather offer to carry my lo while I go and do it. I mean I can do this. But when I go back to work she will have to handle it. I'm just wanted to let her have a try. Yeah it's a simple task but I have to let go and let her do as soon I will be back to workforce. And also after lo finish the milk. She also won't wash the bottle. My heart thinking is it she find my bm very gross. Am I being too sensitive or any one experience the same way like I do. ? I want to ask her what is it that she is not comfortable with but I do not know how to approach her. I Don want to give her the impression like I trying to find problem with her whereas she is being nice by offering to look after my lo.

2017-05-13I really need to rant. My husband and i have been married for 5 years. Most of time,we will argue abt my mil. Every year without fail,there will always be sth that my husband did that will upset her and she will give us her silent treatment. When tat happen,i will try my best to watsapp or sms her an apology for watever that happen and will advise my husband to apologies even though its not our fault. Starting last year, she started to block me on watsapp when ever this situation arises. Now, this year, she block me n husband again. She wanted to borrow my lo for a birthday party.
