xinyi_reiko 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2008 Agree.. Own mum is the best... You can trust her completely.. You know whatever she is doing, is purely for the good of us... Will feel more safe I feel... You can give a token of appreciation to your mum for helping out... My fren gave her mum 1.6k for it... of coz provided if our mums want to do it lah.. like my mum.. i dont think she wants also.. she got a flower shop to take care.. my MIL... she old liao.. then everyday needs to cook for family, take care the family.. i think for me.. probably go for confinement lady..

xinyi_reiko 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2008 I think i most likely same case as you i think my thinking abit different.. if i pay for the service, i will demand more.. as in have more say in things.. if is my mum or MIL, of coz good in terms of saving money.. but in terms of way of doing things.. probably alot of conflicts comes in. then they will do their own way, protest not much use..

katvolution 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2008 the problem is my own mum might not want to help me take care also.... this is the biggest issue....even more so than finances Huh? How come? You had talked to her before? i think my thinking abit different.. if i pay for the service, i will demand more.. as in have more say in things.. if is my mum or MIL, of coz good in terms of saving money.. but in terms of way of doing things.. probably alot of conflicts comes in. then they will do their own way, protest not much use.. But sometimes, demanding more might not really end up to be what you really want.. Own mum can talk things over nicely.. And with ur kid in her hand, you will feel much more safer.. At least you will know that she wont harm her own grandkid... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Devilaz 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2008 Congrats!!!! Baby boy or girl? dont know yet. baby very naught roll here and there. cant scan it. maybe end of the month will know. You watch too much show.. Do what confinement needs to do lor.. cook food, help you wash clothes, take care of the baby also.. not sure abt house work though.. but basically help you to do everything so that you can rest well after giving birth.. i think also help you feed the baby at mid nite.. of course must stay at your house for 1 mth. 1 mth is minimum lah.. so far i haven come across anyone who employ for more than 1 mth.. but not cheap.. 3k - 4k. demand is high.. dont need 3K - 4K de la... daylight robbery arh. 1.5K to 2K have one good good one liaoz... true lah.. but for you is lucky that your mum willing to help you... my mum owns a flower shop.. if dont open shop for 1 mth.. will lugi lor.. valentime's day buy flower from ur mum's shop got cheaper?

Devilaz 0 Report post Posted November 25, 2008 hahahaha.. baby notti like you.. opps okok.. so around 2k enough.. you getting confinement lady?? yapz most likily im getting a confinement lady. if im not wrong it cost about 1.8K. because i try not to let mine parents nor mine parents in law to take care due to that they had already taking care of mine wife (parent's in law side) and me since young and their old. Dont want to make them carry extra burden. Taking care of baby is hard for them and might not have enough rest for them too. I rather give them have more time to play with their grand children rather then taking care of them. Also they will have more personal time too. dont talk abt v day! i hated that day soooooooo much.. sry about it. dont know u hate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
