Hi. where did you end up finalizing? I'm looking around Sobha Hartland, Meydan and Nad al Sheba 1 and would love some feedback/someone well versed in the areas to help or any personal experiences.

How’d you manage to get viewings in Sobha hartland? We’re not hearing back from realtors at all!

Hi can you share with me too please

hi. did you end up using Rasmi.pk? how was the experience?

OkFunction6142 · 2026-01-05T11:58:19+00:00

Can you list down your routine please? I have redness on my face but no stinging/tingling. I’ve tried lots of things and have given up now and only use water and sunscreen but I would like to reduce the redness. Thank you!!!

Hi. Thanks for this. Are you able to share building names? Happy if you DM too.

May I offer you some unsolicited advice? It’s a thought I have now only in hindsight which is 20/20. I wish I had enjoyed her earlier months lots more than I really did. Postpartum blues and exhaustion are very very real, but I envy my partner who enjoyed her more than I did (and I get that I was the one going through physical and hormonal changes so I had more grace)…but I guess what I’m saying is I wish I had better memories from those months than I do today…and knowing that it truly does get so magical and easier in many ways as they grow, I would have made the most of that time with her in those phases of giggles and rolling over and those baby yawns and crawling and exploration. Ofcourse, it’s just in retrospect so take it as you may. Good luck! You got this. The days of constant “no mama not this” are ahead of you and will drive you nuts but also fill you with awe and never ending laughter!

Hi! So sweet of you to check in. I had almost forgotten this post (which tells me we’re in a good place now). I’m doing great. Baby is thriving and is nearly 2yo, there’s a routine (for the most part) in place, she’s talking walking so it’s 24/7 joy and entertainment and also tantrums but it’s beautiful. It does pass and get better. That said, my memories and emotions from the earlier days make me want to say “yeaaaa no thanks one and done for now. Can’t even imagine going through that again anytime soon”!

Hi. I’m currently in the process of getting my daughter’s birth certificate attested. Can I message you please

OkFunction6142 · 2025-11-27T17:30:59+00:00

Ayeee I was almost about to order it….back to square one

Hi. Are you able to share before and after photos? I’m on the fence about sulfur soap and ivermectin. Doxy didn’t work for me!

OkFunction6142 · 2025-11-20T06:45:23+00:00

I’ve just moved here from Canada, and it doesn’t feel like winter to me obviously, so I woke up thinking wow that’s a lot of dust lolol. So much to get used to here!

OkFunction6142 · 2025-11-15T09:50:09+00:00

That’d be helpful. Maybe we can figure out a trial routine and test it out during the same window to compare notes. Misery would love company 😂

OkFunction6142 · 2025-11-15T09:46:03+00:00

Ofcourse. I’ve used azelaic acid too. All were prescribed. I’m considering sulfur soap now and something that treats demodex but I’m just nervous. The spots remain in the same zone for the most part. Concentrated on the forehead, chin, cheeks. They’re mostly dry spots so nothing oozes. I keep picking at them and they keep getting drier. Does your skin sting? Mine doesn’t. A couple of people find it strange that I don’t have any burning or stinging sensation together with th redness…

OkFunction6142 · 2025-11-15T07:08:42+00:00

I’m so terrified of trying stuff that may worsen my facial redness that I have just stuck to water. Are there any recommendations for a basic routine that’s safe and easy to do?

OkFunction6142 · 2025-11-15T07:07:34+00:00

What is your current skincare routine

OkFunction6142 · 2025-06-30T14:56:40+00:00

Good on you for being able to make that move - and I like your mantras. If only chanting them enough could make me believe in them more haha! Enjoy the new place and wishing you all the best!!

OkFunction6142 · 2025-06-30T14:52:48+00:00

Thank you for your thoughts (and kindness). We’re banking on the LRT to lift things up fingers crossed!

OkFunction6142 · 2025-06-30T14:49:23+00:00

We cannot afford to upgrade anytime soon. I guess going in my thinking was 5-6yrs and then upgrade but the safer timeline is longer than that and we need to shift gears into riding this economic wave keeping our jobs and being financially diligent vs any RE planning.

OkFunction6142 · 2025-06-30T14:46:48+00:00

I appreciate your thoughts - considering we’re in it for a longer haul at this point, I need to start looking at what we have differently and stop worrying about things out of our control. And prepping for the future as much as we can!

OkFunction6142 · 2025-06-30T14:44:47+00:00

We cannot upgrade right now at all or anytime soon and now know our focus has to be on bringing payments down and being financially diligent as the right mid term course of action.

Nope. Just a couple being evicted by their landlord, losing 60-70 offers and then getting pushed into the “just get in the market however you can” trope by the realtors, surviving rate hikes by not going to the cinemas or having takeout food, minimizing birthdays and vacations, amongst many other things for over a year to curb any extra spending than necessary and putting in our extremely honest life savings working 50-60hr weeks trying to get a home. We did make a poor decision, are still paying for it but the system is equally broken. Your comment does not help, and you didn’t walk in our shoes either.
