Follow-up checkup @ PPUM today

No. I'm not the one undergoing checkup. It's my 3 and a half year old eldest son. 2 years ago he had to undergo surgery to correct his undescended testicles @ PPUM (Pusat Perubatan University Malaya). The result today is that his left testicle had descend to its normal position. However, his right testicle is still in descending process. Anyway, still have to go for checkup annually. Hope he will grow up to be a normal person in all aspects.

Is It possible to manage Career, Motherhood & Life?

So far I've only manage to handle a part-time job, suck at motherhood, and lead a boring yet stressful life.

School break begins.

Is it rest day ahead or more chaos than usual?

Home- based babysitter or Registered childcare?

Since I started my part-time job (twice weekly @ 4 hour/session ) about a month ago, life has been a bit unstable for us especially the kids. . It’s what I call “adjustment period”. But I’m very sure that things will go smoothly as soon as we get used to the routine. So far, the hubby looks after the kids when I’m not available. He’s self employed so we do have the luxury of flexible working hours. However this is never done without a sigh. So I’ve been thinking hard of finding an alternative caregiver though I do know that nothing beats having the parents themselves taking care of their own flesh & blood. And my children don’t have any complain of having their father’s company though they do prefer me over him. Like I said, it’s just a matter of time and getting adjusted.

Cost wise - Both babysitter & childcare charge around RM250 per month for one baby. But in terms of quality and service, I'm still gathering the infos. Check out www.kindergarten2u.com.

Dilemma of the day

My two sons are taking their afternoon nap. So what do I do on this free time? Take a nap too, ironing clothes, watch tv or my favourite pastime- surfing the net? You guessed it! I'm surfing the net AND finally creating my own blog. Wish I have more of this "me" time.
