Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Hello, dorisbee,

How are you doing? I have been living in LA since last Sept. My girl is 27 month-old. When my girl was bb, I feed her breastmilk and instant formula. Why I gave her formula, because I had a lot of sample from hospital and her doctor. One day, I forgot gave her my breastmilk, and then I forgot everyday, it was ,my " big head shrimp" thing. My bb only drink formula la... ( she is ok without complaint )
About losing myself, it was also happen in my mind. I had a c-section, so my wound was very pain and both of my hand was pain after I gave birth my bb. ( pain at least one year ) When that time, I was so sad, I should have more energy, but I lost my energy, it maybe I raren't sleep at night , finally, I felt exhausted. Although the hard feeling, I know any hard time, we must pass it on. Thus, I still can stand up and happy to my life even though we will face 'big' & "small" problem. Time, it is really seem not beyond us - full time mom, but bb grows up very fast! We ( mommies ) have a shiny future, because we have our treasure - our own child.

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Little Fat Man,

I also think you go to work. Heee... Did you earn "BIG" money for our lunch ah? I wish...ha... Did you take the boat in Laughlin? Everything time we went there, we also take the boat, because it is very comfortable see the view in the river and feel the sea wind.

Natmama,

3 yolks, we always buy 2 yolks only, but this time we bought 1 yolk ja. Finally, we bought St. Anna from same place ( Torrance 99 ) Lazy to go far place.

Shi_Inu,

Everything is ready!!! Go Go ... Go to enjoy your materity leave la! heee....

whalebb,

Don't think a lot! You know your hubby is new in here, of course, he also has his suitable period and feeling. This is very natural, and you give him more support and love. This is very important. He must feel that! Let him some time la. :-P

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Greentree,
Yeah, try 紅棗水 la!!

I think it works. I was always having “borderline” normal blood pressure before my pregnancy and I was afraid that it would give me dizzy spell too

! My mom asked me to drink more 紅棗水. Sometimes I boiled it and drank like “sweet tea” after meal, or sometimes I was lazy, I just used the instinct one. Since it’s sweet, it helps a bit with the morning sickness too! And during my pregnancy, my blood pressures are always OK (touch wood). Hope your morning sickness will go away VERY soon!

Zic,
My parents will arrive next Thur la, really very soon! Over the phone, I know that they are prepared 8899 – both in packing and emotionally. Anyway, it’s quite hard for them to go to a foreign country and live for 6 months! So I know how much my parents love us…

Anyway, I hope that my baby will be good to them and does not give them a hard time! On the other hand, my hubby has not lived with them under the same root, and I have not lived with them for many years already, I just keep my finger crossed that we can adapt to each others real soon!

Mrsyip,
U are online again! How your “mo fa gal” soup tastes? My “pig bone” soup turned out very tasty that night!

I will cook it again tonight! Yes, my maternity leave will start next week! Hurray!

Little Fat man,
“楂快車咋嘛,我老公成日,都係freeway 玩快車架啦..百幾米,都係咁去..有時有d traffic,佢就左轉右轉,真係嚇得屎我架. ..話極都唔聽..”
My hubby the same law

! (although he never drove >100…) He knows very well that I get scared if he drives fast, but sometimes he just forgets…
What does mini-Matt calls u then?? Next time b4 he calls out loud your husband’s name, u shout “DADDY!!!!!!” louder and quicker than him lor!

Kitchu,
We like to talk to u ah, 路人甲! And I have a question for u: my younger sister also lives in UK with her husband (UK citizen). She claims that she’s UK citizen already, and wants to apply the passport to visit me early next year. Do u know how long it takes from apply to get the UK passport?

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Mrsyip, Kitchu, Nillie and Shiba,
I am very touched, so many response. Thanks for your advice.

Nillie,
I love hot-pot too. Let me know when you have the date.

Shiba,
Your parents are very nice. Since you have some goal-----take good care of your lovely baby girl-----, so don't worry about the 相處問題。Respect is the most important thing when we get along with each other.

Whalebb,
You really love your hubby very much. My hubby never worries about I can adapt NYC or not.

Dorisbee,
Wow!! We really live very close. I think from my house to your house, just 5mins or less. Actually, I live in Bay 40th, next to 25Ave. I don’t know NYC very well too. I have been here about one and a half year. Most of the time, I stay at home taking care of my baby. We go out on weekend. Since my hubby drives, so I don’t the place. If you don’t mind, we can have lunch with Zic together someday. She lives in 71ST.

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Shiba,

Almost time lu wor, are you ready

It will be nice once your parents arrive. I'm sure they will be so busy caring for Little Karina, they won't have time to feel home sick

Just bring them to Monterey Park or Rowland Heights on the weekends so they can see more Chinese people and grocery shop. Do you have any baby shower plans? Don't forget to let us know

Mrsyip,

I always get one 3-yolk mooncake each year. I think it's less sweet cuz there are less "lin yung". I tried the one with "kam wah" ham and nuts, it's pretty good and not very sweet either. Have you done facial after you came to LA? Do you have a good place to recommend

Little Fat Man,

Maybe you can call Big-Matt "honey" or "sweetie", then Mini-Matt will learn that too...hehehe... :-P :-P :-P How was work yesterday

Zic,

Did Kurt behave well last night? Was it really the stuffed animals that helped him

I hope it really works for you guys :lol: :lol: :lol:

Valbee,

I'm so sad, I saw a pair of double vecro shoes on nordy's website but when I went to the store, they didn't have it. The sales told me the nordy online and instore carries different inventory. When I got home and checked online, the shoes was gone...woo woo. I bought Natalie a pair of fall color Mary Jane shoes at Nordy...it's by Umi. It's brownish red. I got her size 23 and few pairs of socks $8.50 for 3. Then we went to Gymboree and I found her a fall color jacket that can go with a lot of different fall/winter clothes. Did you find the shoes for Valerie yet? If you find something on nordy's website, just buy it cuz they might not have it in the store...I so regret not buying the purple pair :evil: :evil: ...now it's gone

And shipping is only $5 flat on the website.

For anemia and low blood pressure, you can try pork liver with "gay chi" soup. You can add spinach to it also.

Dorisbee,
咩你阿仔又係做咗boss呀?? 我隻衰豬以前都係. 不過宜家阿媽攞番個權啦.

我初初都驚隔離鄰舍聽到o架. 但係為咗長遠着想. 無辦法. 要冒著俾差人拉嘅危險, 頂硬上. :mrgreen:
如果你哋想去toronto... 可以諗諗一大朝早 or midnight 出發嘅. 因為啲豬仔瞓覺嗎. 我都好想去呀...... 問問老公先.
我住喺16th ave & 68 st. 同你屋企都係附近. 我哋得閒可以meet meet 啦. greentree 都係嗰頭. 可以3個c9 1 個墟.

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Kitchu,
I haven't started to give Kurt any solid food yet. Because the ped. worried about his skin. His skin is little dry, and has rash. Plus my hubby's brother had a serious allergy when he was a baby (family history). So she said it's better wait till he's 6 months old. You're smart, just let charisse tries 2 spoons a day

Does she like it?? And when will you give her?? Daytime / Nighttime... I have no idea ar...

Socloudy,
Hi

I have a son who is 4 months old. His name is Kurt. We live in Brooklyn ar... We've never been Queens, like a "heung ha pou":mrgreen: When we go, can you show us around??

And how old is your baby??

Little Fat man,
No time to type Chinese.. Hope you don't mind la.
鄺芷珺 is a pretty name. How come you can always do a great job in naming??? Uh.. we should find you in the 1st place, so don't need the "tai sheung lo" ma.
Mini-matt is so independent.. that's a good thing la... at least he won't cry when mommy once steps into the kitchen

And don't need to be held all the time

Plus you can have more time to

more enjoyble mother can be.

Shiba,
Don't worry too much la. Grandparents just busy of taking care of their grandchild... no time to bother you two ga la. Of course your parents love you la... stay for 6 months wor . You and your hubby can try to show them around before the baby comes, like the supermarket or food place to eat. Have some nice family time together before the big thing comes, haha. because no time later. Seriously, your parents are very sweet.
And how's your apartment going???
Hope you parents have a good trip to the U.S.

Natmama,
Kurt was originally being good ga. But his lovely Daddy kicks the iron board in the middle of the night (the iron board was placed at the back of the bed). So Kurt woke up and cried. Then I have to hold him and nurse him little bit. So he went back to sleep. Hope Daddy behaves tonight la.

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Hi Zic

,
Corey is a 3 1/2 months old boy. Since I'm a working mom, my dad takes care of Corey for me during the weekdays.
If you have time to come to Flushing, I can definitely show you around. I have been living in Flushing, Fresh Meadows and Stony Brook (Long Island) for 16 years la. Flushing seems like a combination of 8th Ave and 86th street (~ Century 21 dept store area) in Brooklyn.

. Except even more Asians around.

When I come by Brooklyn, we can have a high T too.
Kurt is so cute ah! If he still has problem with sleeping, try to use the burrito wrapping skill la. It works well on Corey.

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

小肥佬,
你對我呢個朱事八卦既c9都錦好, 我好感動呀!! 我叫tiff. 呀! 今年25歲加多幾十個月! nice to meet you!

shiba_inu
我係uk得嗰9個月咋! 不過聴人講home office起碼keep個passport成年, 仲有用自已身份申請 (住英國五年), 易過用老婆身份咁啦(結婚三年), 仲有有啲british passport 無 US visa waiver, 要自己睇吓.

greetree,
you are welcome la! 我都係一個無知既c9, 大家傾吓law.
please do not take any liver　product, 因為太多vitamins a, 會hurt bb’s 腦. spinach is good, 要同vitamins c 一起食, 會更吸收, 但唔好同milk（calcium）一齐食, 啲iron難啲吸收.

Zic,
我個囡都ok鐘意食米糊啦! 如果, 你老公family有food allergy, 咁你要小心peanut, 因為呢種食物會死人嫁. 如果, 比egg yolk 都要little by little, 我個friend比one forth egg yolk 個7月大仔食, 食咗兩日都無嘢, 第三日比a　ｈａｌｆ，　但佢個仔変咗豬頭．　
ｓｏｒｒｙ呀太長氣！！　　可能你一早知啦！
ｉ　ｒｅａｄ　ｆｒ．　ａｎ　ａｒｔｉｃｌｅ　ｔｈａｔ　bb 試ｓｏｌｉｄ　ｆｏｏｄ　最好係ａｆｔｅｒｎｏｏｎ比ｂｂ食，　如果，　佢唔想食，　唔好“ｂｉｇ”佢，　第二日再試過．　又唔可ｒｅｐｌａｃｅ一ｍｅａｌ．

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Hi Kitchu,
I think you are definitely right. Spinach is very rich in iron. My doctor recommended me to eat that while I was pregnant.

Hi greentree,
You can take the iron supplement and eat steak too. I was low in iron during my pregnancy so the doctor gave me a prescription to purchase the supplement…

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Kitchu

唔駛感動喎..如果你咁講, 我地恐怕係同一類人.咁又點駛咁客氣..話晒都係八卦c9, 之前,我都堤過,要做一個pro 既c9, 唔係咁容易架.. ..仲有, 咁我就後生過你囉, 我都係十八加 n 咁多個月.

...依家英國個天氣點樣呀? 我地呢邊好似有d 反常.我老公話今年個summer 好短, 一到六點幾,就已經好凍..攪到食完飯,都那那林,咁返屋企避寒.

好誇張呀.

Zic

無所謂啦, 我都係得閒又中又英啦.

..我都唔覺唔好意思.. :mrgreen:
其實個女仔名,我真係諗唔到有咩字,都係問人,再自己左搭又搭咁囉.

..如果你要我搭半唐番.好似kurt 同mini-matt 咁, 真係得到佢地娶老婆, 都可能仲諗緊,可能幫佢地d 仔女諗埋都得囉.

mini-matt 都會有喊既時,就係肚餓,或者眼瞓,但係又要心野,迫佢瞓,個時囉..

初初我都好驚隔離鄰舍聽到亞仔喊架,但係真係正如你所講"為著長遠計",真係忍心一下,唔理亞仔同隔離鄰舍都要.

Natmama

其實我都有諗過,叫我老公做"honey" 或者 "sweetie" 呢d咁既字眼..但係唔知係唔係叫慣左佢個名,真係一時轉唔到口呀..加上,我試過,我叫佢"honey", "sweetie" 同埋" daddy". big matt 原全係無反應.

Shiba_Inu

你父母真係好愛你啦. 真係羡慕你囉..

我都試過,如果mini=matt 一叫 mad, 我就大叫 daddy.但係都無用..呢一,兩日,仲日叫夜叫,係唔係都叫mad mad..好煩呀. 咁我咪係用面前,不斷咁叫"ma ma, daddy, 車車, 花花,草草" 佢咪有dd 反應" 咩, 咩, ku ku , 哎喲哎喲"呢d咁既音囉.

..依家又鍾意係唔係都放舊電心呀, 乜九屎垃圾,都當係電話. 咁我又好八痴咁攞住d唔係電話既野,同佢對話囉"hello, mini-matt",咁佢就用唔係咁正綜既hello 音,嚟對住佢件垃圾講囉..不過,佢狂叫"mad",都係佢首選

mrsyip

無搭boat, 因為我cheap 囉..

我地由頭個間推住亞仔行到最尾個間,個度都成兩個鐘. 我老公就係咁問"如果你攰,搭boat 返去啦",我咪話唔駛..咁就來回成四個鐘,當中我老公係其中d casino 賭下,要cash out 張ticket,咪企casino 一二角等佢囉,比"食q" 趕左出嚟,因為有infant,唔可以停留,只可以經過.仲要途中,試過兩次添呀..陰公 :-(
事後,由於我條係jean, 四個鐘頭既行程,攪到我雙腳失控咁.好攰.我老公咪成日潤我囉"都叫你坐boat架啦,你又要cheap"

頂佢呀
錢,就輸左唔少,睇怕出到嚟,都要你地夾錢請我囉..

Nillie_Mami

點解返到屋企有咁既感覺架? 千祈唔好被咁大壓力比自己. 返到屋企,有個咁得意既amanda, 又有個咁愛自己既肥bear bear 老公,又有一個完完全全係自己既家. 應該要開心..如果你個日覺得特別攰,返到屋企,bath 一 bath 佢. 加一d 有清新香味既bath gel, 做一個 bubble bath, relex 一下...咁個人都無咁緊張. 又或者同肥bear bear 老公一邊飲杯野, 一邊傾下計,個人都無咁緊張. 其實如果你懂得點樣令自己平日放開心情, 利用放左工既時間,令自己relex, 開心..日日都可以係假期.. 希望,你會明白我既意思啦..

係囉,如果我地放香港既時間, 吻合,我地都可以見一見面. 飲個早茶或食個tea,再唔係整個一家大細食個dinner 都好呀.希望遲d有咁既機會啦.. :mrgreen:

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

Kitchu,
多謝你嘅提醒. 其實阿叔仔嘅food allergy 係超級犀利. 聽老公講佢試過2次差啲冇命

其中1次係佢自己倒咗成杯奶落個頭, 跟住就窒息. 我話誇唔誇啲呀, 我初初都唔信佢講o架. 到後尾阿99講起, 咁我先信. 佢連掂到1滴奶, 都會有嚴重過敏. 所以有關奶類products嘅嘢完全唔食得. 你知啦. 啲鬼佬diet冇可能冇milk products o架嘛. 所以阿叔仔都好可鄰o架. 人哋生日有蛋糕食, 佢就冇. 到咗15歲先食第1次pizza. 讀書時, 食lunch要同其他小朋友分開坐, 怕其他同學食芝士 / 飲奶掂到佢.

後尾, 喺佢讀grade 4 時, 有個小朋友見到冇人同佢玩. 跟住個小朋友就返屋企同媽咪講, 話聽日個lunch box 冇 cheeze & milk. 結果佢哋就變咗buddy lu. :mrgreen: 到咗今時今日, 阿叔仔11月個bb會出世, 佢特登放假孩飛去睇bb. 你話佢哋係唔係好friend 呢

Re: Any Mom lives in USA Part III

kitch,yan831,dorisbee,so cloudy:

Nice meeting all of you guys

we got so many nice moms in here, very warm gar! :-P

dorisbee,so cloudy:
I live in Brooklyn too, with a 4 years old son and a 3 mos old baby girl, so happy that we got more and more NYC moms in here

zic,
Flushing has really good food and me and my hubby will go there for food once a while :mrgreen: , your family can join us next time too. Kurt is good, now you can sleep better la,

children are fast learner, especially the skills thing, the early the better, look at my daughter, is seems

but seriously is better for the baby and for yourself too. At least you can get more rest and won't be mad by overtired ma.

dorisbee:
Maybe you will want to have the Toronto trip when your baby is little bit older, we didn't drive their until my son was 3 years old, (last year) I don't think is good for the baby's back to sit in the car seat for too long as such a young age, maybe over a year old is better,it is just a suggestion though,hope you don't mind.

little fat man:
I saw the pic. of mini-matt.. he is sooooo cute with the white tex. good investment, heheehe

nillie:
Is everything okay? Maybe Amada is having her trouble 2 period, that can give you a lot of pressure too, I know is stressful after work and when you see the kid not listening, you were like "what's going on right?"Just relax and tell yourself things will get better gar,I am telling you the truth gar, Amanda will get bigger and bigger and she will become more understanding and I am sure she will be more under control gar, just think of the positive way, your Fat Bear Bear is very very good, you are very lucky gar la, I will email my phone # to you again, just give me a call when you need someone to talk to you okay!?

shiba:
Time flies, you will soon meet your little girl, well for the name thing, I think the most important thing is both you and your hubby like the names, seriously, the baby herself doesn't know whether it sounds good or not, it is you and your hubby name that for her and if you feel not comfortable, why not change it to a smilar one instead, like Sarina?

I am happy for you that your parents will come and help you out, it make so much different when your mom is helping you for the sit moon time.

natmama:
Natalie is funny calling your hubby "lo kun" I try not to call my hubby "daddy" myself because I once read a article saying don't do that, it will ruin the "husband & wife' relationship, men are different from women, they feel that they are not only the father of the child but also the husband of his wife and they actually desire more love feelings than women wor, they don't want their wifes would only think that they are just the father, they also wanna be your honey too, not sure is true though

To everyone,
I am going back to work next week la, is been 4 mos I have been off from work, now Clarence needs to be in school (pre-K) early and with a 3 mos old baby, not sure I can handle both work and home at the same time,

wish me luck la.

BTW, Have a happy 中秋 everyone !
