2017-06-05I just found out that the baby I am carrying has high risk of Down syndrome. My Husband wants to keep it. I don't. I don't think I will be able to cope and I am very horrified and ashamed that I might have done something in this pregnancy to cause this. I don't know what I did wrong. I never drank a sip of alcohol. I quit my job and take care of myself very well in this pregnancy. What should I do.

2017-06-07My LO is gg to enter childcare soon...as a first time parent and a single parent, I am filled with anxiety at the thought of it. I am so worrisome about his safety, well being, how is he going to cope with it etc etc...i wish to accompany him during the first 3 days but unfortunately I am very busy during that period to take leave, unless I delay his entrance.. however the sch suggested me to go ahead as they don't encourage parents to stick around anyway. As long as there is someone to stand by will be ok (My mum) in this case..even So, I can't help but to feel guilty if I don't experience the first time with him...i m in such dilemma..?

2017-06-08Hi mummies who have more than one kids... why you want more kids? It is too tiring to take care a kid and it will make you looks older and older and older.. no me time not enough sleeping time..
2017-06-08I feel that I have no social life ever since I became a Mum.(don't be mistaken, I love my child and my role as a Mother truly) As I'm a young mum when I had my kid, most of my friends are still in my their singlehood or non-parent life. Due to our differences they had also drawn a line between us and I find it hard to re-connect back to them anymore. I can't meet to their schedule or life interest too due to my own commitment. I'm absolutely ok with being alone and doing things myself most of the time but there are days where I do feel really lonely. My hub and siblings are like my only "friends" now. My work place culture also happened to be that people don't have lunch or connect and socialise together too as our office is a small one with just a few of us. Its not their style to mingle. I think some of the mummies may face this problem too. How do you manage or cope with this feeling ? :S

I'm currently as single mother to be and some days I feel that I can survive, some days I just want to call it quits and just lie down and die. I'm just so terrified of the future. For those who are single parents, how do you cope with all the anger/resentment and fear...
2017-06-08Can you solve this puzzle?
2017-06-09LO is coming to 20 mths and suddenly rejected formula milk. So I took the chance to intro fresh milk to her. She's ok for 3 days then now starting to reject fresh milk again. Is it ok that she's wean off milk totally? Taking solids well and I have included yogurt and cheese in her diet. Another problem with no milk is that it's harder to make her sleep at night somehow. So I tried giving her bread (she loves it) but ended up I feel she got active even more and slept even later. Is this cos of the bread I gave her? Not sure if the sleeping late is just a phase, but I am totally in panda mode now ? Any advice welcome!
