Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

chingbj,

M-I-L 係 mother in law, 差唔多我每次返我奶奶到我就會去ABC 到買野食﹐ 附近仲有一檔食牛腩麵﹐通常我會叫丸腩麵 :mrgreen:

Natmama,

我去開果間 ABC 係O係 sunset, SF. 我今次都會在 CPMC, SF deliver bb.

SY_Mom,

我個仔仲有一個星期就 18 個月大啦。佢訓覺訓到好似打風咁﹐同佢蓋完被﹐ 就一個唔該都冇就踢去走張被﹗又訓訓下然起身﹐ 有時仲拿埋隻 teddy bear 同埋張被比我﹐ 要同我一齊訓﹐ 都唔知好嬲定好笑。係啦﹐ 佢同你個仔差唔多﹐ 好維鐘意 “琴" 上 "琴"落, 尤其係 sofa, 又鐘意玩電制開關﹐ 又“捐” 黎“捐” 去﹐仲有就係好鐘意執D好細既垃圾﹐ 好似D餅碎﹐紙碎比我。你個仔係咪都係咁 ? 我同我老公冇咁快比佢返 day care 住﹐ 或者等佢 2.5 - 3 歲先﹐我都未同佢介片﹐ 佢大便左通常有個樣睇﹐ 不過就唔會話比我知﹐ 我睇到佢 ng ng 個樣我就問佢係唔係 CC 左﹐ 佢就會快D走開﹐ 唔比我捉到。而家住係 Hayward, 不過遲D會搬去 San Jose.

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

MARBLE﹐
係呀﹐你都好早呀﹐我呢邊八點幾啦﹐一陣要去產檢嘛﹐不過阿仔現在無旭﹐唔知係咪訓左。
BB用品仲未買齊﹐你呢? 最緊要個張床同床辱都未買﹐因等緊老公CREDITCARD公司寄來的GIFT CERTIFICATE﹐幾年來CREDITCARD儲埋D分真係好有用﹐可以換到$400BABIES R US 既GIFT CERTIFICATE。希望快D寄到黎﹐如果唔係老公會羅黎買CHRISTMAS GIFTS比佢D姪仔﹐到時我就比佢激死~
係呀﹐NY呢排開始凍﹐打邊爐好鬼正﹐加上呢邊有間酒樓開始左2人海鮮火窩COMBO﹐盛謂$23。99 FOR 2人﹐好抵好抵~
但SHABU-SHABU同LA既就真係無得比﹐LA正好多好多﹐尤其係J-TOWN 0個間﹐稔起都流口水添

你阿仔好過隱﹐哈哈~

leohannahchan:
你老公人工高唔高呀?如果唔高你可以試下申請低收入生bb..
不過你有insurance唔知得唔得.
你可以打去"東北"問下,tel:(415)391-9686.中英都得.
我都係申請左,生個時開刀+住左5日醫院都唔洗比錢..
而且仲住單人大房,好正...臨走個日仲有大餐食....

babygigi:
你而家都唔算忙了,到你生個時真係超級唔得閒,想訓都唔得,so趁你而家有得訓就訓多d,同老公出多d街過下二人世界....
因為生左bb之後會同老公成日嘈,我就係咁...唉..
不過而家bb越大就越少,但係好少有機會再二人世界...

SY_Mom:
我係住係sf家,我黎左都係一年多d咋...sf真係好多唐餐..
如果你得閒既都可以過黎再品嚐一下....
你有幾個小朋友呀???係咪only同你老公住???

你生完之後邊個同你湊bb呀??
你大仔咁痴身,如果你自己湊返咪超辛苦??
不過你奶奶應該會幫你手...
你到sf生bb,離你屋企咁遠,你要小心d....

小肥佬:
你諗住幾時喂你仔仔食糊仔之類既野呀??
我都諗緊唔知幾時開始好...
我個仔而家每日都要食7餐,你喂人奶喂成點呀??
有無覺得好似多左奶咁,我就好似多左小小,以前每次泵得3oz,而家都有4oz-6oz,不過我仍然唔夠奶比個仔食....
小肥佬介左夜奶未,佢最耐可訓幾個鍾唔洗食奶???

babygigi,

我可以用返以前大仔用果D野﹐ 不過就要買 BB床。 2 個人打邊爐個價錢咁平﹐ [size=medium]正

chingbj,
我老公會請 2個月的假﹐ 所以生左之後佢會幫手湊2 個月﹐ 我奶奶佢唔識湊﹐ 我唔鐘意佢湊既方左﹐ 佢之前幫､過佢個女湊女(佢個孫)成日趁個孫訓左(訓係大人床)﹐ 自己就做自己野﹐ 點知個孫係張床跌左落地下﹐ 係唔止一次啦 :evil: 又鐘意比埋D solid food 佢食﹐ 當時得好似5 6 個月大﹐ 係比蝦佢食呀﹗

﹐ 所以我唔放心比佢湊﹐ 再加上佢屋企距離我屋企唔近﹐ 又唔識開車﹐ 要我老公接送﹐ 浪費時間﹐ 可能你會提意叫佢搬黎住﹐ 咁仲 c﹗ 易請難送呀﹐ 1 ﹐2 日冇所謂﹐ 長期我冇產後抑鬱症都變有啦﹐ 仲有佢身體唔係咁好﹐ 倒返轉頭要我照顧咪仲 C ﹗ 都係咪攪﹐ 自己辛苦D啦﹐ 慢慢黎 :-(

Babygigi,

The Shabu Shabu in LA J-Town changed owner. The new owner cut down on both the beef and veggie plate. I think it's own by chinese ppl now because the waitresses speaks cantonese. Probably not as good as before when you tried it.

Do they have a lot of seafood for "bin lo" in NY? I really miss the crunchy fish filet for bin lo in HK.

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

各位,
今日係baby r us 嗰度,發生咗兩件唔係咁開心既事..首先,我哋一去到,見到嗰度有得同bb影相,咁我老公即時興起就走佢影..點知小肥佬一見到幫佢影相既女仔, 巳經好似好驚,個女仔"乙水"佢,點知佢仲喊晒口咁,仲想用手走佬個隻(但係佢太細,根本爬到爬唔到)..咁個女仔係咁唔理佢, 係咁同佢整pose. 咁我老公想幫亞仔影一張露股既nake照,佢又話唔得, 只係一張爬係度既nake 照..仲要影得個三張, 影完,又唔叫我哋睇.要我哋問先比我哋睇..咁我哋把幾火,一張都無要..因為影得唔好, 仲要每張 $15, 咁貴,我駛乜係個度影呀.. :evil: .根住咪去睇diaper 囉.點知有個女人係咁同我哋講嘢,我老公又同佢講.我見到前面有兩個女人阻住我既去路, 前又走唔到,後又走唔到, 唯有企咗係中間, 點止個兩個女人其中一個比咗一個dirty face 比我,連一句" excuse me"都無,就話"我想係你企係度既地方買嘢." 咁我就行開加say sorry 囉,咁變咗佢阻住咗我去路..點知我老公又唔醒目, 係咁用gesture 叫我行去佢個度..我把幾火, 好大聲講" 我都想行過嚟,但係有人阻住我點行個嚟姐." 咁個女人立刻"bear" 鬼住我, 我望咗佢一眼, 就推架cart 行過啦..我心諗"明知個條路咁窄,我都唔想阻住你,但係後面又有人阻住我,你(個女人)又阻住我,駛唔駛比面色我睇呀." ?-( ...
真係激屎我啦...

我老公個家姐就話五個月開始,就可以比d糊仔比亞仔食..我諗大約呢個時間啦..你呢? 依家好似越嚟越滿足唔到亞仔咁. 但係我會餵得幾多就幾多啦...我依家都懶得pump啦, 一嚟亞仔唔肯用奶樽,費時浪費嘛..小肥佬其實係兩個月時巳經戒咗夜奶,有幾次仲試過一次過瞓九個鐘tim,係要我叫醒佢起床飲奶,如果唔係谷奶谷到我屎呀.不過,唔知點解呢幾排,佢好反覆,好似昨晚咁,瞓瞓吓,半夜就叫飲奶, 又或者瞓得唔係咁好咁..都唔明... ?-( ..我諗緊唔知係唔係張bassinet太細,所以亞仔瞓得唔舒服..

marble

我前日同我媽咪講開教仔,佢巳經叫我依家好教定佢坐係度痾大大啦,,我話會唔細咗d 呀,依家先得四個月..

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

Marble,

U know what?! Yr boy sounds exactly the same as mine! Ha ha ... Is he talking a lot too?
I'm so tired taking care of mine every day (plus he doesn't like to sleep and eat but snack).
You're so brave to have another baby so quick!! and another boy again?! I won't even think abt it now (i might change my mind if he's more behaved after 3 yr old or so).

Also, u're so smart not to ask yr m-i-l to stay over. i was not as smart as u (although she was medical professional). maybe both my hubby and i are the eldest in the family and also the first grandkid, so we all didn't hv any updated experience.

CPMC is a good hospital for delivery. Most of my friends in SF gave birth to their babies there.

I only been to Hayward for a couple times only just for visiting a friend. When r u moving to SJ? which part of SJ? we could be neighbors ... who knows?!

Btw, did yr bb have flu shot this year?
Mine didn't have it last yr. But this month the new pediatrician recommended him to take it (6m to 23m) so he did. However, he's still on wait-list for the second shot (need to take 2 shots if first time taking flu shot).

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

babygigi,

i used to like having the chinese hot pot in New Jersey, when i had my 6-month project there duing winter time. usually i'm a good fans of it, but it was so cold at night especially after i landed there from san jose.

chingbj,

yes, u're right. now i live w/ my husband and my only 19m boy. but usually my m-i-l will stay over for at least once a year. after bb was born, she's stayed for abt a yr (on and off).

Little Fat Man,

i'm not suprised that yr sister-in-law suggested to give rice cereal to yr bb as early as 4m old. i think that's how the older generation did. my m-i-l also told us to give rice cereal to bb at 4m old, but most pediatricians now suggest to give solids at 6m old. so, i think we ended up to feed him either little "rice water" or rice cereal at 5m, since bb lost weight after having chicken-pox at 3 1/2 m and bad cough at 5m.

sounds like most of u came to US after married to yr husbands. i know it's tough for u, cos i hv a friend who 's in similar situation.

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

little fat man,

i think in our generations it might be much more earlier to potty-train the babies. my mom also told me the same thing when she visited bb at 7m old. so we bought the "equipment" for potty train when he's 7m. but eventually we gave up, cos he couldn't sit still for a minute.
now i think he might be ready for it, cos basically he can communicate w/ us. but i'm too busy and lazy. maybe i'll let the teachers at the childcare to help when he turns 2.

Hi All,

Any mommies have experience to share for potty-training?

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

Hi, all

Do you know which shops buy diapers will be cheaper?(other than Costco) cos we are not going to renew Costco this year as we use less than 10 times last year and if I paid membership for only buy diapers....it is not worth....(I don't mind any brand cos I am doing research and like to know which brand and which shop having a great deal for diaper and wipes)

chingbj
You are so lucky and I guess we are not eligible to apply for that insurance but some of my friends did not need to pay a penny for giving birth 2 babies in USA. I went to SF yesterday and luckily get a parking space in Chinatown. So, we went to "Ka Ben Kok" to have afternoon tea the restaurant next to "Ka Ben Kok" to have congee.... "yummy"
You are so lucky and don't need to cook as so convenient....to buy HK style food and dine out.
I am in SJ, almost 1 hour from here to SF and so I will only go to SF once a month or 2 months.

Marble
I woke up around 5a.m. in past 3 days, cos sometimes my baby just like you keep moving and so I woke up. The other time I woke up cos I could not feel any movement and so I was worry and I woke up....

So,....keep waking up really early!!

You are so lucky can re-use all the baby stuff cos you have 2nd baby and also a boy....not even need to buy new clothes

!!!!
Your husband is so nice and will 請 2個月的假??? That 's long long vacation......

babygigi
You are 2 weeks earlier than marble and me. Do you know the sex of baby? I will have a baby girl and so I already bought so many baby girls' clothing and stuff. I want to know which credit card you are using can have Babiesrus gift certificate as my husband want to buy toys for our baby in future...he is crazy and willing to buy expensive toys....so I prefer use points to exchange toys...

小肥佬
Don't get mad cos sometimes people here just very aggressive and even you drive car in USA, you will find they will just change lane or cut lane....So, I understand we just can't understand why but don't let these things and people ruin your holiday mood....cos no one can make you unhappy unless you let them do that to you

You can have another chance to take picture and maybe too many people and he just scarced and so next time maybe better wor....

SY Mom
I am in south San Jose now close to Blossom Hill Road. Do you buy or rent here? We rent a house here cos we are going back to North Carliona after I gave birth my baby. But I really like here cos so convenient..... :lol:

SY_Mom

My mom told me that I could sit on the potty for pooping when I was 6 months old

..So she suggested me to put him on the potty before he makes the deposit in the diaper. :mrgreen: ..I answered that I could try it but depends on the development of my little boy...
I won't let my bb eat rice cereal before 5 months old. As you say, most ped. or books also encourage
baby to eat solid foods around 6 months, and the usual starter foods will be bananas and rice cereal.
Your bb will be "Terrible twos" soon, you have to keep an eye on her.. :mrgreen:..Now mine started to roll over, I can't leave him alone on the couch anymore..

Did you watch "Nanny 911" on TV ? Sugar from snacks will affect infant's health and disposition. Sort of the chemical infection makes them more active and easy to be grumpy..try to eat more healthy snacks to quell the hungry pain.

leohannahchan
The shop's emty, the girl just didn't want to deal with us anymore, she seemed so unhappy after taking the pics. My bb doesn't scare the strangers, even the strangers talk to him, he will smile at them (everyone calls him " a happy baby). So I was so surprised when he was scared and shaky in front of her. Anyway, she didn't ruin my weekend that was the most important.. :mrgreen: .. Today I found the coupon of JCPenny, only 4 bucks for each portrait sheet and get one 8x10 portrait for free. So we will go there or just to the professional photographer.

My baby only uses "

ampers" . I tried Huggies before, but the diapers leak out of the side that pissed me off :evil: ... If we have time , we will buy Pampers in Baby r us with 15% off coupon ( no.3 $30 (org. price) for 124 diapers). If not, we just go to Ralph with no coupon (no.3 $15 for 60 diapers).
the wipes of Pampers is cheaper in Target (about 15 bucks for 500 somthing wipes).. Now I use Kirkland for my baby, only 13-4 bucks for 576 wipes , but I bought it in Costco, so maybe you can get it in somewhere else...

Before I gave birth , my friends gave me a lot of old bb clothes and new clothes, so we don't have to buy any clothes until he's 1 year old that save me a lot money.. :mrgreen:

Re: Any mother is living in USA now - Part ll

小肥佬﹐

我果時比亞仔食糊仔大慨都係5個零月﹐ 唔好咁早比佢食呀﹐ D人話會過肥(痴肥)

﹐ 至於 potty train ,我好懶﹐ 再加上我冇乜耐性﹐ 而家佢坐唔定﹐ 都係等佢自己 ready 既時候﹐ 咁佢會好快攪掂。影 bb portrait 最好要有 coupon, 否則一張 portrait 成 $15一張架﹐ 又要比 sitting fee﹐ 好唔抵﹐ 唔使咁勞氣﹐ 人地唔嬲﹐ 自己嬲咪唔著數﹐ :-P ﹐ 唔好比人影響自己。

SY-Mom

我冇帶亞仔打 flu shot 呀﹐ 係呢﹐ 你個仔 pediatrician 係邊度? 叫咩名﹐ 佢細唔細心 ?因為我會搬去 san jose in Mid-Jan, 而家佢個 pediatrician 係O係 SF, 遲D 我地會轉返去 San Jose, 方便D。

leohannahchan﹐

我地多數去 babyrus 買 diapers/wipes, 我老公話果度平D﹐ 趁佢地減價時﹐ 我地一次過買2箱﹐ 仲有你可以去
Pampers.com 登記﹐ 佢地會間唔中會send D coupons 比你﹐ 你亦可到 http://www.americanbaby.com/ 登記﹐ 有免費 magazine send 比你﹐ 入面間唔中都會有 coupons 架。仲有就係當你生左BB 之後﹐ D 奶粉商就會係咁 send D sample 比你﹐ 好似全世界都知你生左個 BB。有次最犀利就係 safeway, 佢地居然知道我亞仔就黎生日﹐ 送左一張免費生日蛋糕既 coupon 比我﹐ 不過我地冇去拿。:-P 唔好笑我啦﹐ 我想呢胎係女呀﹐ 不過只要健康﹐ 仔女都冇所謂 :-P 。我既新屋好近你果度喎﹐ 我 O係 mapquest check 過﹐ 去係果度﹐ 開車大慨 15 mins :-P

leohannahchan,
我的bb都是用Pampers, 在一些BB雜誌中往往有其15%off(在babies r us買)的couple, for instance, baby talk, american baby, etc. 加上, Pampers公司有時又會寄一些couple來，所以都可以慳到几元。
至於wipe, 我也是用pampers, 在target買的, 當時大減價, 才十元多些。
我和老公都申請了chase的babries or toys的credit card, 時不時都會有10元現金購物couple回贈。
