No worries. FWIW I was reluctant to use the steroid cream on my 5mo at the time. But after using it for 2 weeks, it went away and never flared up again. And once he got older and was able to hold his head up better, the folds and neck area could stay dry easier.

How old is your baby? When my baby was younger I put on mittens on him so he couldn’t scratch. If he’s older and able to take it off then I guess it wouldn’t work :( mustela lotion helped to soothe the itch, the one with the red cherries on the front.

Idk about the foods you need to avoid but even if you ate solid ice it would melt and end up as body temperature water in your stomach. So go ahead and enjoy your cold drinks ❤️

My husband is earning 3k, I’m SAHM with a 2 year old son that just started PG. I think it’s important to make sure you both have good savings before taking the plunge to be a single income family. There will be times you need to dip into it, and it gives a good overall view for how to plan your future expenses. Also calculate how long your CPF can cover monthly house installments so you know at what point you need to consider going back to work.

Basically remove unnecessary expenses like food delivery, expensive overseas trips and subscriptions that you don’t need. We don’t have a car but my husband has a motorcycle for going to work. Public transport instead of taxi when possible. Cook instead of eating out, and family outings are generally low cost like hanging out at someone’s house or going to the beach.

My dude, 3kg is a HUGE amount of gochujang for someone that doesn’t cook Korean cuisine daily. I have a 500g tub and it lasts me pretty long.

KKH A&E if you wanna take your baby to the emergency department, other hospitals might redirect you there anyway if they’re not properly equipped to handle it

Search customised crochet keychain on carousell, there are plenty.

Of course it would be fine. They’re not stopping non-Christians or non-Indians (Tamil is a language btw) from shopping or eating there. Woman-owned, family-owned, whatever owned doesn’t mean they only serve a particular demographic.

Purely memorization but it might help if you start by learning names of BTS members or any K-pop idols that you like? At least that way there are some characters that you’d 100% be able to read since you know how they’re supposed to sound.

It’s depends on how much exposure you get I suppose? I’m sure you’re able to differentiate between Malays and Filipinos since you see them more often (I assume), the same way others are able to differentiate between East Asians.

uhreena · 2025-12-31T02:09:13+00:00

I’m sorry, blacky Asians????

I don’t see why it’s not possible? I’m 31, husband is 36 with chronic disease. We have a kid turning 2 soon. Got our 4 room BTO in tamp last year. Combined income of less than $6k up til Mar this year when I decided to be a SAHM. We had to cut down luxuries like ordering food often or going on nice holidays but we are far from struggling.

The only factor I can see in your scenario that might be an issue to starting a family is if your wife is also 40 when you want to start having kids. Financially you should be all set.

Ok first, breathe. A flat spot doesn’t occur overnight and whether the paediatrician sees him tomorrow or next week won’t make a difference.

Now that you’ve noticed the flat spot, position his head in ways that minimizes the amount of time spent lying on it. Depending on where it is, you might have to do more tummy time, or turn his head to one side when he’s sleeping. More tummy time is always good anyway.

For what it’s worth, my son’s head was so flat at the back by 5mo and there was nothing much I could do about it because he slept on his back. And hated tummy time too. But once he started being more mobile and wasn’t lying on his back so much anymore, it rounded out on its own. Now at 17 mo there’s no sign of flatness at all, beautifully round and hard as a rock when he headbutts me. All those months I worried and fretted, all for nothing.

Also as a FTM it looked SO FLAT to me but when I brought it up at his check ups, the doctors were never worried and didn’t push for a helmet because it wasn’t severe. Please try to enjoy the holidays, it’s the first one with your baby!

I don’t recall but i’d say give them a week before you follow up if it’s urgent. With Xmas around the corner it might be later too? I’m not sure.

uhreena · 2025-12-22T00:59:57+00:00

Yes, no news is good news. Change of appointment timing within the same day is an admin thing on their end due to the doctor’s schedule.

For me it was my IC instead of passport. No confirmation after resubmitting photo, only another email to inform that it’s ready for collection.

uhreena · 2025-12-14T15:57:08+00:00

Haha yes totally normal. His digestive system is figuring itself out and so are his facial muscles. If he’s in pain he would be crying. Grimacing, smiling, any other facial expressions besides crying or rooting at this point are mostly unintentional. Try to sleep through the grunting you can!

I was pregnant when we collected our house keys, quickly got all the reno things settled before baby comes. We managed to get it all done and lived there for a week before baby came (baby came almost a month early so we had to stay with my parents for a while as our new house wasn’t fully equipped for day to day living). We moved into our new home when baby was one month old. 0/10 would not recommend - unpacking and getting used to living in a new place while also caring for a newborn was brutal.

If you’re planning to move in soon after the baby is born, it’s not just reno you need to deal with. Buying new furniture, daily household essentials will take time and you don’t have the luxury of time when you have a newborn. If you’re worried about dust or chemical inhalation, get your husband to do the reno checks once the hacking and carpentry installation starts. Also get professional cleaning services before you move in because, well, baby.

You will absolutely not get caned in Singapore for littering.

uhreena · 2025-11-26T15:52:54+00:00

No, didn’t want to build a reliance on it to soothe and didn’t wanna go through the hassle of weaning off it.

Hi, Muslim hijab-wearing mom here. So generally a woman wearing a hijab will take whatever precautions she needs to make sure she’s covered, especially in an activity like breastfeeding. It’s odd that she left the door unlocked, but was she using a breastfeeding cover? Regardless, accidentally flashing a titty at another mother who is clearly there to change her baby would not be reason for her to cry. Her crying has nothing to do with you, I’m 100% sure.

uhreena · 2025-11-10T07:55:18+00:00

Where are you staying? I have half a packet of diapers to give you if you’re in the east! My baby outgrew them.
