Hello moms! Lalo na sa mga SG moms, kaway kaway! Thread 2 na pala ito, ang bilis naman!

Sarap naman ng mga online shopping niyo. Ako di ko pa yan na-try. Tsaka wala pa ring balak, baka ma-addict ako eh. Solve na ako once in a while shopping for my daughter. :)

Pia, punta ka ng US? Sarap naman! Sama si Kyle?

^ayun na nga ang kinakatakot ko eh. Baka mawalan ako ng control hehe. Gaganda pa naman ng clothes online lalo na yung pang big girls na din. Lalo na sa shoes, mahilig pa naman sa shoes yung anak ko. Kinokontrol ko na talaga sarili ko.

Ayoko na rin masyado magbibili ng damit kasi nasasayang at nakakalakihan lang. Recently naglinis ako ng cabinet niya and inalis yung mga damit na di na kasya nanghihinayang ako sa mga damit na alam kong twice or thrice lang nasuot then nalipasan na :(

Part 2 na, ang dami kong na-miss. :( Until now, di pa ako tapos mag-backread sa Part 1 and hindi pa ako naka-start magbasa rito sa Part 2.

I've been in so much stress this past few weeks. Super depress and stress talaga ako. It all started last month, I have this cousin who gave birth 2 weeks before I did and since magka-age lang sila ni Gelo lagi silang nacocompare and all... Last month talaga, na-feel ko yung mommy competition between me and my cousin. I have no plans or intention naman of competing with her, pero iyon na nga nagyayari. Pumunta kami sa house nila to celebrate my nephew's 4th month... then doon na nagsimula lahat.... fast forward na lang, I won't go anymore to the details kasi super mapapahaba... basta she makes me feel na I'm an incompetent mother because of my age na. Nasabi ko na ganoon kasi lagi na lang kinokontra ang way ng pag-aalaga ko kay Gelo. Na para bang wala akong alam. Lagi na lang sasabihin, hindi ganyan dpat ganito, ay hindi pa naman yan... basta lagi siyang kontra... she ask me dati paano ko minamassage si gelo and ano gamit ko sabi ko Nivea lotion edi bumili rin siya tapos nagconsult siya sa pedia then sabi wag na muna raw gamitan ng lotion tapos ayon kinukulit ako na wag gamitan ng lotion si gelo. eh sabi ko pwede na rin naman yan kasi yung lotion meant for babies skin tska kung ayaw niyang gumamit sa akin edi ok, wag siya gumamit. eh talagang kinukulit niya ako na sundin ko siya kasi mas matanda siya sa akin. tapos sunod naman eh we're talking about high chairs, sabi niya ang mamahal raw then i suggested na she can opt to use a booster chair instead.. tapos she asked ano iyon then i described it to her tapos ayon as expected she said things na negative and kontra talaga siya tapos when they went to the mall pig-check niya yung booster seat kung ano itsura and how much, when she found out na medyo cheaper kaysa sa high chair ayon biglang gusto na... di ko lang maintindihan sa kanya na bakit ganoon siya na whenever i share to her yung mga alam ko mapa-parenting, baby stuff at kung ano pang related about babies lagi niya na alang kokontrahin tapos in the end bibili rin siya or gagawin niya rin lang o kaya naman yung gusto niya iniinsist niya, na dapat ko siya gayahin, na gawin ko rin ginagawa niya. gusto niya kasi siya lang may alam, siya ang magaling, siya na ang best mommy. Kaya minsan nag-aalangan na lang ako magkwento sa kanya, magshare kung anong alam ko, patango-tango na lang ako pag nag-uusap kami. Di ko lang maintindihan talaga kung bakit siya ganon eh siya naman nagstart ng topic, siya yung nagtatanong sa akin sinasabi ko lang POV ko at ishare sa kanya kung anong alam ko tapos balewala lang naman pala sa kanya. And ang pinakahindi ko makakalimutan sa lahat eh nung sinabi niyang pwersado ko ang milestones ni gelo :'( hindi ko kasalanan at hindi rin kasalanan ni gelo kung nauunahan niya sa mga milestones yung nephew ko kahit mas matanda iyon kay gelo. grabe talaga. hindi niya siguro alam na nakakasakit na siya ng feelings ng ibang tao. she's being tactless. mahirap tanggapin at pinsan ko siya.

Sensya na po at na-share ko sa inyo sentiments ko. I just want to rant and vent out yung inis na nararamdaman ko since matagal tagal ko na rin itong kinikimkim sa sarili ko. Di ko kasi mai-share sa mama ko.

na-stress talaga ako ng bonggang-bongga dahil dyan, I had my period for 1 month. grabe.

^aaaw sis. I feel you  :( I think each of us has our own share of experiences as yours. IMO, that's the most challenging part of being a parent, moreso being a mother. Wala ata satin naka skip ng ganyang situation in one way or the other. Based on experience, ang solution ko dyan is to avoid her as much as you can. Anyone who gives you the negative aura, dedmahin mo. The lesser communication you have with her, the lesser pain and lesser sin. Hehe. But in the event na unavoidable ang pagkikita nyo, self control ang Sa tingin ko dapat mo gawin. Control your mind and heart. Listen to what she says kasi Baka meron din syang point. Pero talk less. It always work that way. Let it be a one way communication. And avoid as much as possible to express your feelings in ways that she can tell unless you know that the both of you can openly sit down and talk about it. Otherwise, it's pointless. You'll end up hurting each other more. Basta important lang na alam mo Sa Sarili mo that you're mature enough to handle the situation. You'll get by. She's just one of them and am sure there's more to come. At least youll know next time how to handle things. Above all, pray that you'll have the strength and an open mind to understand and pray for her that she'll have the heart to consider and change. I hope this helps you :)

Pau, Tama!!! Mas delikado ang online shopping pang girls. Waaaah!

Hel, dont let others make you feel bad about yourself. If she reacts that way when you share things about parenthood with her, dont share anything na lang. Pia's right, just try to avoid her especially since being with her gives you negative vibes.

So far, wala namang ganyan saken (prolly cus I'm usually the more intimidating one) pero I ask a lot of questions all the time from my friends and sisters in law. I welcome advise but I dont follow all cus at the end of the day, ako pa din ang mom and I get to make the decisions. It seems na your cousin has a lot of insecurities prolly cus she's expecting na you will look up to her in terms of parenting because she's older than you but she's probably surprised na you know a lot of things na she doesnt. Maybe she means well din but she doesnt get to express it properly so if you do get to spend time with her cus it's unavoidable, read between the lines na lang siguro. Since based on your story mejo mas mature ka sakanya, then be the bigger person na lang. basta dont let others put you down or make you feel na you're being a bad mom.

True yan mother Van and DETTE.

Ang sakin din, tatakbo ako hanggang Sa pinaka malayo para umiwas Sa gulo. But the moment na nacorner mo ako with your heartless and effin face, wag mo na intayin magdilim ang paningin ko at magkasalubong ang kilay ko at talagang Di kita tatantanan. Kung kelangan mag loan ako ng pang demanda sayo, gagawin ko. Ang akin Lang, timpi ako pero may hangganan yan at Hindi araw araw pasko. To make it short, dedma hanggang kaya pero pag mega API ka na, gulpihin mo na!!!!  :)

Did this once and I hope I won't say twice.

Naku parehas na parehas pala tayo Pia. Mukha lang akong mataray at bruha pero hinde ako pala-away. I will vent out and maiinis ako pero hinde ako yung tipong mang-aaway ng tao. Pero if you put me in a situation na pipilitin akong maging aggressive, well ang malas lang ng taong yan.

Van, may shoes din akong gusto sa rl, yung white canvass mary janes. 2 nga bibilhin ko, magkaibang size. Hee. May 2 na damit din. Super pigil na yan. Nagpa-quote na ako kay myonlineshopper. Mukhang makiki co-load na lang din ako sa kanya ng dr browns. Sayang $50 amazon gift card eh, para magamit na.

Hel, kung ako sayo sa susunod pag tanong siya ulit, sabihin mo di mo alam o pinagiisipan mo pa. Wag mo na i-entertain para manahimik.

Buti na lang samin ng sister ko wala pang ganyan na nangyayari kahit one day apart lang babies namin. Magka-away kami niyan mula nung high school ako at kaka-graduate niya ng college but now we're closer than ever kasi we're both 1st time moms and bonding namin ngayon ang talks namin about babies. Nagugulat nga dad ko kasi di siya sanay na di kami nagaaway ng ate ko.

Nakuha ko na kanina yung prints namin sa picture company. Happy naman ako so kahit papano masaya kahit ang mahal!

Hello!!! Napadaan lang, nagising si baby eh. Sumilip lang ako baka tambak na naman tomorrow. LOL!

Hel and to other sisses - ito lang po ang maishi-share ko sa situation ni Hel. Please read na lang po :-)

http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/parenting/the-10-most-irritating-least-helpful-parenting-tips-ever-2448391/

Basta ako, kahit matagal ako nagka-anak, it doesn't mean to say that I am a newbie in terms of parenting. Oo bago akong ina, pero di ibig sabihin eh wala akong alam. Baka mas marami pa ako alam kasi hilig ko magbasa, lalo na dito sa GT  ;D Dedmahin ko na lang yan, for sure kase di afford mga ibang gamit na buy mo for your kiddo. In short, insecure! Pag inapi ka, gaya ng sabi ni Pia, gulpihin mo. Isama mo kame, magsabi ka lang  ;D

ang sa akin naman kasi kung ako ang gagawan ng hindi maganda magtitimpi ako hangga't kaya ko pero pag pamilya/mga anak ko ang sinalbahe ibang usapan yon. lalabas ang pangil, sungay at buntot ko. so far naman SIL ko pa lang ang sumusubok ng patience ko. swerte nya lang at sa ibang state sya nakatira pero malas ni hubby dahil sya sumasalo ng galit ko.

Van - comfy ba ang RL shoes? pediped at skechers pa lang na-try ko kay A.  pero mas guto ko pediped kasi di nagpapaltos paa nya saka di bumabaho.

Tin and Van, sure! Bukas ako tingin Sa site kasi Sa phone ako naka login ngayon.

Dette, Tama Yung pediped Di baho Sa paa. Natry mo ba sperry? Mas challenging sakin pag family ang kalaban. Mas masakit. Unlike lag acquaintance, shoooo ka

RL shoes for boys medyo mabigat Sa paa. Makapal kasi sole nya. Kung wide ang paa ni baby, medyo mahirap. For boys ito ha :)

Jen, kaloka Yung article. Hahhaa I experienced Yung sleeping part ng story Nya. Hehe.

Hel, some things to note din and I hope it will help you:
1. Avoid kampihan. Ok to blurt out your feelings here Sa forum kasi we don't know her. Walang relationship na masisira between us and your cousin. It's best to limit sharing your feelings. Share it only to the people you're close to whom you know won't judge either of you. Unless people insist to ask what's wrong, try to keep it.
2. Don't go public where you think will cause the situation to blow out of proportion.

sis redrose - hindi ako yun. hehe.

hel - i had those moments too but everytime it happens, lalo na kapag yung sister ko lagi ako sinasabihan na ganito dapat, ganyan, dinededma ko na lang. Naiinis ako kapag nagbibigay siya ng unsolicited advise na may kasamang katarayan. Naku! Pakialamera talaga. Kung hindi ko alam, magtatanong naman ko sa kanya pero based on my experience on having a lot of nephewsa and nieces, more or less may background na ako on what to do. Wag mo na lang isipin yun, mastress ka talaga niyan.
