2017-02-07Hi, did anyone do hair rebonding in early stage of pregnancy when you were still unaware you were pregnant? Is it alright?
2017-02-07My hubby had a good talk with me last night as we hug to sleep in bed . He told me how he felt neglected and being treated like a last priority ever since I had my second baby 1 year ago .. also because I have been busy settling baby's stuff after kids have fallen asleep that I seldom sleep at the same time as hubby. Last time when we had #1, we always make it a point to go to bed at night together . I think he misses me at bedtime at night (not necessary to BD but we always hug to sleep ). I feel really bad but appreciate that he tells me honestly how he feels . I want to think of ways to quickly finish all that I need to settle , wash up and go to sleep together with hubby .. I think my main problem is after a long day as SAHM , my main way to relax and zonk out is to take my own sweet time to do things , and some "me" time etc .. hubby already helped me out with his housework so I have no excuse that I'm bogged down by housework .. I think I'm jus taking my own sweet time to do things. Need to work fast intentionally knowing that my dear hubby is looking forward to sleep at the same time together with me . He tried to wait for me but sometimes is too late and he gotta wake up early the next morning at 6am to send my boy to his primary sch..so he needs to sleep early . We don't have much help too so to want to plan for a date for just the both of us is not easy ..any good suggestions to make him feel special and to let him know that I still love n treasure him very much? :)

2017-02-08I've not have sex with my hubby since we found out I was pregnant in early 2016. Baby was born prematurely and is stable now. Recently I told hubby I hope to have another baby in a few years time. He said he doesn't want to because he is afraid I will have another premature delivery. Last night, I tried to initiate sex but his body language tells me he is not keen. I feel so upset. What should I do? It has been so long and I want to get intimate again.

2017-02-10I think i am very irritated and annoyed with me mum. She is kind of possessive towards my no1. Whenever we carry no1, somehow she will snatch it away from us and said that baby doesnt want to be with us, especially when baby whines/just cry, she will immediately snatch the baby away. Sometimes she even show me black faces for making baby cry. I feel like wth. At times she can for nth, make baby cry thinking that when baby cries are very cute, then thereafter tried to pacify baby and said like grandma loves you. Mum kinda show like she is the parent of my no1 rather than us. Hubby already feeling kind of pek chek. Im stucked in between i also dono what can/should i do. Jus feeling very frustrated at times.
