I have received TONS of emails regarding my tattoo removal progress...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It has been an extremely long and torturous journey and it could've been shorter if i just went for the treatments every month but i really dreaded the pain...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To date, i have 9 sessions in all done at 2 places, namely, Trinity Medical Centre and National Skin Centre.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Currently, most of the black have lightened however the colors are VERY stubborn and difficult to get rid of. :(</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here are some pictures of it after 9 sessions (mostly targeting the black ink - 6 sessions)</div>

All i can say is, if you regret a tattoo, laser removal is not going to be as easy as you think...especially if it is a colorful tattoo. I have friends who had no problem with black tattoos! So yeah, if your is all black it should be quite easy! But still, removal is not going to be 100% clear!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will be going for Session 10 next week, after session 10, 90% of the black ink should be gone! Then i'll be left with the colorful ink. Not too sure how many sessions ill need but I'm already half way there so...hanging on and staying positive! Not expecting it to be extremely clear but ill be happy if a little bit of foundation + concealer can cover it, it's all good for me.</div>

<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tPz4xbGo2Rk" width="560"></iframe><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a difficult decision to make but I had a year to think about it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So...I have decided to take down this space, and let the memories in this space be for my viewing only. Yes, I have decided to discontinue my blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
It is kinda difficult to leave because of the "easy money" and flexible working hours and the many perks of being a "blogger" but for the sake of my privacy (and my family's), I have decided to not continue blogging. I can leave out the details of my personal life and continue blogging for the sake of the money but that'll just make my blog very different and well, not really my style anymore. Especially since i started this blog with the purpose wanting to share my personal life and experiences.<br />
<br />
Being a blogger, I just can't help but to feel this need to update everyone on everything that's happening in my life. There are different kind of bloggers out there and many do keep their lives private but for me, I did not start out like that and I'm used to being very open about everything. It's something I've been doing since 14 and I just really enjoy letting my experiences and thoughts on life being read. People follow me because I try to be as real and honest about things and I'm not afraid to put my life out there for people to talk about. Honestly I liked the attention I was getting too...I loved getting recognized on the streets and stuff like that. <br />
<br />
However, after being a mom, I realized I just am not the same person anymore. I do not care for the attention anymore. I don't want it so much as life is not all about me now. I am not who I used to be...I had the "say what you want, I don't give a f" attitude but now I just don't want that kinda stuff going around because f up people will drag my family in and then talk shit about them. Yeah I must add, I have became super paranoid about everything now. Lol. <br />
<br />
My partner kinda influenced me in ways I would never have thought of. Like trying to stay off social media and appreciating the real world. Take time off "showing off" stuff online just to impress people and be admired. Without sharing too much about me, people won't have much to say. With lesser gossip to deal with, it actually made me happier.<br />
<br />
Well I will still keep Instagram going though because I still want a place to share pretty pictures hehe so see you guys over at @ohsofickle once this blog goes private! And if you do not already know, I do have a new job as an Interior Designer at Imagine by SK66.<br />
<br />
Apart from getting updated on my personal life, I do know people who follow me because sometimes i do share some good restaurants and beauty tips, i will still continue doing that on Instagram, :).<br />
<br />
For now, thank you to all my sponsors and advertisers for working with me and uhm...funding me of course :x haha. I know many of you were shocked I kept rejecting ads esp in the past 3 months! Well now you guys know why! It's been a really really awesome journey as a full time blogger and I am super lucky I had one of the best jobs (and be well paid too) a girl can ask for. Thanks to all you readers too. Thank you for all the support and love you've given me in the past few years. :) x<br />
<br />
<i>[Update]</i><br />
<i>From time to time ill always come back to this space to pen down "private posts" so i still see comments~ am so so touched reading all the comments left on this post, CAN CRY!!! LOVE YALL.</i></div>

I CANT STOP EATING CARBS. My everyday must have includes at least 2 slices of cake, muffins, bread w peanut butter...it's really crazy because I have so much carbs in a day and I'm kinda inactive. I've stopped exercising as it always hurts down below when I do. It's a weird feeling. I miss exercising though! I miss perspiring and having a good work out so much.<div><br></div><div>At week 26 I've already gained 10kg! It's pretty similar to my previous pregnancy which means I've to work super hard to lose all the excess weight after baby. Which I heard is more difficult after having number 2 but praying that those things I heard aren't true. </div><div><br></div><div>Well I am thankful that everything has been pretty great so far though! I do get days I feel very very worried as this baby isn't as active as Elroy. I hardly feel her kicking! And when I do, it's just for a little while and it's only when I lie down flat and really try to feel her. Most of the time I can't feel her. It's so weird right! So I bought myself a little Doppler so I can hear her heartbeat from time to time to assure myself she's alright. It's quite funny cus she moves the most when I'm using the Doppler!</div>Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-85862219674816908962015-08-21T15:40:00.001+08:002015-08-21T15:55:07.644+08:00Carrislabelle<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">One more month and my precious first child would be officially 1 years old! Oh how time flies~ </span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I
have never had a problem planning birthday parties. I enjoy planning my
own parties as well as my friends'. However, when planning for my
child's first birthday party, it was not as easy as I thought it'll be. I
have a month to get everything settled so I decided to speak to friends
who have done it before to help me with it. After planning it once, and
possibly failing at some areas, one would know better how to plan the
next. However let's just skip that and make sure the first time is
perfect!</span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Most
parents i have talked to said they spent between $1k-2k planning for
their child's first birthday. It isn't a small sum considering that's
probably half of an average Singaporean's monthly pay check but well,
the oldies said celebrating "big birthdays" in one's life will bring
lots of luck so most parents will plan a big one (even though our little
one wouldn't remember much at 1 years old, sadly).</span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here
is a check list of the things you will need to look for when planning
your child's birthday party. I have also gathered recommendations from
mummies who have successfully planned a good birthday party for their
little one.</span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-family: inherit;">1. The Venue</span></b></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This
is the most important but toughest to find! Here we have a few suitable
places to hold your child's birthday party and hopefully it's within
your budget. </span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It'll be great if you can afford to book a whole restaurant, a hotel function room, maybe even a hotel suite because that way, you need not do all the cleaning on your own! However for the budget conscious...</span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">

<b><span style="font-family: inherit;">Condo Clubhouse</span></b></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">At
just $50/day, this is definitely one of the cheapest option in our
list. If you do not live in a condo, maybe use a relative or a friend's
place!</span></div>

<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Since
this is a big party, we will need a big cake! In recent years, there
has been a spike in home bakers in Singapore has many great home bakers
on Instagram. When it comes to the look for it, most bakers do not have a
problem achieving that however...I have tasted some of the prettiest
but worst tasting cakes too many times.</span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I
hate fondant of cakes so much because I once accidentally ate fondant
and it tasted so much like play doh so since then, I cannot get over how
bad it tastes. A fondant cake definitely looks prettier though, as
there can be a lot more details and colors on the cake design. ONE THING
I MUST REMIND ALL, NEVER EAT THE FONDANT OF A CAKE. Or even have it
together with your cake. It never tastes good. I will ALWAYS remove the
fondant of the cake before serving it to guests. It's the inside of the
cake which matters! If you have a phobia of fondant, the list below has a
few which do not use fondant however, as I said above, fondant cakes
look a lot nicer and more detailed so to each its own!</span></div>

<div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7); text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I
have narrowed the list down to a few whom have great reviews online
(looks and taste!) to help you find the perfect baker to bake the
perfect cake for your party!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">For
the older folks attending a kid's birthday party, the food is probably
one of things to look forward to. With that said, a good caterer is
needed! You don't want to end up with too much leftovers because the
food doesn't taste good! And one more thing, if you are inviting 40
people to the party, you should only order food for 30. Don't worry too
much about it not being enough! All 40 people who attend the party will
be able to walk out with their tummies filled AND you still might have a
little bit to tapao back home to eat the following day. Been there,
done that!</span></div>

We did not want the moment to not feel rushed or forced and we both knew what has to be done since Day 1. <br>
<br>(Have decided to remove this portion as that someone thinks it's a bit too in depth...so yeah, privacy...)<br>
<br>
It seems like we don't have much of an issue with the backwards thing but everyone around us seems to be bothered by it. Honestly, I don't blame them because we were brought up in a way that marriage has to come before babies and that is supposedly the right thing to do. However, in my opinion, that signed paper does not prove you're a better parent because even some married couples can't raise their children well. It is not about the paper but instead, it's how much you can provide for your child and do your best to give your child the best environment to grow up in. Should you have to rush into a marriage, and live with someone who is abusive or who cheats, will that environment your child grow up in be a happy one? It is just one of the many things I thought about before rushing to sign the paper. Not trying to convince anyone to agree with my views but wanted to share a little bit about my life choices and let you know and be assured my kids are well taken care of. <br>
<br>
Sometimes I question myself...why my life is like that and why can't i be one of those who takes a conventional path (oh the many things I do differently from others...like eg. dropping out of sch etc). But If everyone has such easy and simple lives, wouldn't that make the world a boring place. Everyone is different. As I always say, Life is full of unexpected surprises.Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-15714423700352546532015-08-15T16:07:00.000+08:002015-08-15T22:57:06.758+08:00ComplainsSorry for the lack of updates but recently i've been really focused on work and i realized how difficult it is to manage a full time job and blog at the same time!<br />
<br />
My prego body ain't helping at all. I dont know why but lately i just keep over-sleeping. I used to be able to do with just 4 hours of sleep a day and will automatically wake up but now i NEED at least 10 hours or i'll be extremely cranky and lethargic the whole day. And then there's Elroy...who is extremely hyper active and clingy. I believe it is actually a good thing as it is one of the developmental stages kids face and i also think it'll get worse as time goes by...until he turns 3?<br />
<br />
I dont know how it is possible to do without a helper and i am thankful to have one but recently even she is getting a little bit out of hand. She was pretty responsible and been a happy go lucky person for many months but could this new change in her happen because i'm too nice to her? It's sad because i dont want to be the employer who's extremely strict but for the safety of my child and to be able to go to work feeling at ease leaving Elroy in her hands is a must. Last week, Elroy was sick and it must've taken a toll on her body because she fell sick too so i kinda let her rest for 2 days and took over. However...this week it seems like her attitude is getting a bit out of hand and where did all her manners go? Not to mention how she can continue lying in bed in the afternoons in my presence. Well previously, whenever i walk into the room where she's playing with Elroy or watching him nap, she would get up immediately and sit up. Now she just continues lying there in my presence which i feel is kinda in appropriate? Also, i give her the permission to go out to walk the dog and at the same time bring Elroy out for some fresh air in the mornings. I told her before that the max is 30 min but recently, i noticed it takes 1 hour for her to be home. I have actually secretly followed her once and seen where she brings Elroy and Hiro to...which is to the nearby playground to meet other helpers with kids which i think is not so bad because Elroy has "made friends" with many kids and enjoys himself a lot. However extending it to 1 hour out of a sudden without permission is a bit too much lor. Told her about it and she listened for like a week...then back to 1 hour outings again.<br />
<br />
Moreover, she has stopped greeting me in the morning and also stopped asking me what i'd like to eat. Every week, i do grocery shopping and usually all the meat in the fridge would be consumed in the same week because she would prepare lunch and dinner for me but now, if i don't ask, she won't cook nor ask me if i want anything so we're left with old meat which we have to throw. Plus, she's starting to get more and more rude. Like for example, whenever we correct her whenever she does something wrong, she would just listen while we talk and walk away. Totally no "YES MAM/SIR"... or even an "OK" to acknowledge. She will just walk away the moment we finish the sentence. Which is SERIOUSLY getting on my nerves because i cannot tolerate such rudeness in the house! I didnt say much though but this morning, i actually raised my voice at her for the first time asking her to have some manners and REPLY. My partner and i are very easy going people and i believe she knows that very well living with us for almost a year now and i think she's really starting to take advantage of us and changing for the worse. Which is extremely worrying for me because baby 2 is on the way and i definitely need a reliable helper around the house. I did try to talk to her nicely to change but it seems like it isn't happening so i think i should get someone like my mother to help me talk to her and maybe warn her that we will send her back should she continue being like that.<br />
<br />
Sounds damn bad already right? I hope she will change back to the person she was soon or else i'll have to go through the trouble of finding a new helper all over again and with so much to do and so little time, it's really gonna stress me out. :(<br />
<br />
Praying things get better soon.<br />
<br />
On a better note, work has been a really fun learning experience for me and i am kinda glad to have stepped into a new industry! I have learnt a lot about a lot of stuff in this short period of time! It's like going to school all over again...and i kinda missed that because the last time i was in school was when i was like 17 and didn't even complete it. Although the money doesn't come as easy as blogging. :( Like seriously, when i compare how quick and easy i earned money through blogging, i can now really say blogging as a full time job is damn easy! Oh how i wish i could juggle both but i've decided not to be greedy and take up social media jobs at the moment because of the fear i wont be able to deliver and give the clients good enough response from my posts.Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-31893196653957338162015-08-15T15:38:00.001+08:002015-08-15T15:38:21.361+08:00My Singapore Project - Snowflower<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
So last week, Elroy had a fever for like 4 days. It was so high, one night it went up to 40.4 degree celsius. My helper and I spent those days with very little sleep taking turns to look after him and check on him constantly. He then broke out in a rash and the fever ended. Googled and they call this Roseola. Pretty sure it was that but didn't confirm it with the doctor because the rash went away pretty quickly.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am slowly going cray though :( and i think my helper too. He is sooooo fussy now. What happened to my easy happy baby?! It started last month, got worse during his 4 days fever. And now that the fever is gone...OMG the crying just won't stop it is really slowly driving me crazy. I'm so sorry I feel so bad saying this but it's really what i am feeling. Even when he has stopped for a little while and I want to sleep, the crying will be ringing in my head. Being pregnant is making my patience worse than ever too. I'm pretty tolerant to babies' cries leh but recently it's just tooooooo much to handle...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Elroy cries over everything and it's so difficult to make him stop. It used to be super easy like all we had to do was to Carry him around but now he would stop awhile and start again while being carried. Everything makes him cry?! It is even worse than the newborn phase. When he wants milk, i give him milk and he will drink a few sips and throw the bottle away and start crying again. And then i'll try giving it to him again, and he will drink a few more sips and cry again. It's just non stop crying 24/7. He can't sleep for over 3 hours....he will confirm wake up to cry awhile then go back to sleep. I googled and many mommies experience this too and said it's teething. I believe so since the last check up with the doc, he doesn't have a ear infection and besides his fever there wasn't really anything alarming according to the blood and urine tests the doc did.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh please please let this phase be over soon!!! :(</div>

Anyway, more updates on his growth. He is now a whopping 11kg! Pretty big for a 11 month old baby indeed. The doc said it's all good cus he is "tall" so yeah, not over weight! Plus he will lose it all when he starts to walk....which i'm quite sad about because i love fatty Elroy. Still a super fussy eater!!! But can eat A LOT if he likes a certain food. It's not easy though! It's like one day he might like it and the next day he doesn't. And like the previous update, he just wants to be fed by the hand and refuses to eat from spoon. Like if we feed by a spoon halfway and he stops, then no choice but to use hand otherwise he just want want to eat it anymore. He is getting pretty good at feeding himself now. Like he can hold his biscuit or fruit and finish it without creating a huge mess and dropping it all over. </div>

<br />
So at almost 11 months old, my baby Elroy finally got a fever...actually he got it once after a vaccination but it was only 37.7 and it went down immediately after paracetamol but this time round wasn't that simple.<br />
<br />
Yesterday afternoon before I left for work he was all well but when I came back, my helper told me he has a slight fever. Gave him paracetamol and hoped it'll be better the next day. I assumed it was just teething fever. In the morning it was 37.4 and that's pretty ok according to the pediatrician and google. He was also very active and being his usual self. Had a lot of errands to run so I decided to bring him along in case his fever comes back and I can rush him to see a doctor immediately.<br />
<br />
He was all good until 4ish pm, when my partner and I carried him and he felt very warm and was kinda cranky and didn't want to sleep. Our helper assumed and said he seemed fine and that it wasn't that warm but being the worried parents that we are we decided to make our way to the pediatric clinic. Which I am so glad we did!!! Thank goodness it closes at 5pm and we were in time! When we reached, his fever was 39.5 and after waiting for like 30min it rose to 40. We had to do a blood test immediately but it turned out to be fine so doctor said to give him meds and monitor him closely at home for the next 2 days and go back again. Oh man I can't imagine how he must feel! :( I'm so worried because even I as an adult have never had a 40 deg fever before. I've never felt this worried for anyone before and now I know exactly how parents feel when something unpleasant happens to their darling child.<br />
<br />
We are supposed to fly on Friday for our first family holiday and I was super looking forward to it but because of his fever, we might have to cancel it. Praying he will get better asap!!!Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-50284797989000179382015-08-02T19:15:00.001+08:002015-08-02T19:24:31.362+08:00Small Bump = Unhealthy Pregnancy<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">People need to know that one's bump size does not determine the size of the baby. You can have a giant bump but still give birth to a small baby (because it could be you have more amniotic fluid). Also, even if you have gained a lot of weight, if does not mean your baby absorbed it all too. Some people can gain a lot but still have a normal average size baby. I even know of people who gained very little but their babies were considered bigger than average! </span><div><br></div><div>Im getting people asking me if I'm eating enough for my baby and why my bump is smaller this time round. I know you're worried but really, there's nothing to worry about and you cannot judge someone's pregnancy just by how much weight they have gained or how big their bump is.<div><br></div><div>Knowing that I am not one who believes in starving myself to lose weight, it is highly unlikely I'll starve during pregnancy either. To me, eating is one of the things I enjoy most and I never deprive myself of food. Even when I'm trying to lose weight, I will still eat...just healthier choices and exercise more to be able to achieve my ideal goal. Because I am always eating, I have a really good metabolic rate and I am thankful for that that's why I always tell people to never go on crash diets because that's all temporary. So now that I'm pregnant, it's even crazier because I have every reason to eat and gain weight without feeling guilty! As someone who loves food so much, it is definitely one of my favourite perks of being preggers...haha.</div><div><br></div><div>So why is your bump so small this time round? Shouldn't your bump be bigger during the 2nd pregnancy? </div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Well I personally don't think it's that small anymore and one shouldn't judge from pictures because many of the clothes I wear don't show the real size of it. And also, it didn't show earlier than the first because before I got pregnant with number 2, I had managed to train them muscles and got pretty toned tummy. </span></div><div><br></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif">People who think I'm dieting and caring more about looks than my baby's health should think twice man. You have not seen how I eat...and merely judging from the pictures I post...which are from only one angle, and I'd try to post the most flattering one which makes me look slimmer as most of it are ads for clients selling non-maternity clothes. Btw I have gained a massive amount of weight, which shocked my doc as I only took a month to put on so much! Like my previous pregnancy with Elroy, I have already gained 10kg at Week 24. Which is considered a lot but well, I guess that's just me when pregnant!! My 1st pregnancy I gained 20kg in all so I'm expecting to gain around the same, or maybe 15kg since they say you gain lesser when you have a girl (aiya got many "they says" during pregnancy one haha)? </font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif">If I choose to have a baby, I want a healthy baby. I won't do anything to increase the risk of not having a healthy baby. </font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div>Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-6615740914860602332015-07-29T23:56:00.001+08:002015-08-02T21:00:20.217+08:00Single Parents in Singapore<div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">(Update)</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">So sorry but I actually didn't really read the original article before writing this (usually get news from friends) but after reading it I sorta understand it better.

So yes, pretty much aware of the "real" situation after several ppl sent me the original article from non-biased websites.</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"In an interview with government-controlled media Channel News Asia, Minister for Social and Family Development (MSF) Tan Chuan Jin said that the ruling PAP Government will still not support equal rights for single parents because it is not the “norm”"</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"Going by Minister Tan Chuan Jin’s logic, it appears giving these single parents equal rights will result in an increase in the number of single parents and that married couples become single parents out of choice and not circumstances."</span><div><div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; font-size: 14px; -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392);"><br></div><div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; font-size: 14px; -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392);"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">It's so stupid because not all Single Parents want to be Single Parents by choice. Yes, some people do choose to lead that lifestyle because going through an abortion does seem cruel and some women do feel strong and are capable enough to do so. But many don't...and many times it's because the Father of the child isn't a good person. So these women have to live with a cheating husband or an abusive guy for the rest of her life just so she can enjoy the benefits from the government? If father of the child has another woman outside, the mother has to marry him just so she can have a "normal" family? You'd say, then why they even had a child in the first place. Well, people can change overnight and ya, accidents do happen. Everyone wants a perfect family, who would choose not to have one if they could? </span>Also, some guys just refuse to be responsible for the life they created, how about the government force these men to be responsible since they wanna "force" marriage like that? It's always the woman's fault but hey, it takes 2 hands to clap? Whether Single or Married, the responsibility to raise a child is the same...a parent is a parent. In fact, it is two times tougher on a single parent! Single parents aren't even asking for more benefits...just EQUAL benefits. After all, everyone is paying taxes too.</div><div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; font-size: 14px; -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392);"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.701961); font-family: UICTFontTextStyleBody; font-size: 14px; -webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0980392);"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">For myself, thankfully I have great family support and because my partner and I have plans, this "status" won't be for long. So this complain post isn't about me but for those other mummies out there. It is not the same for everyone... I have met so many single moms who really struggle. They struggle to find time to look after their child because they have to work full time (some even work 2 Jobs) to pay the bills and also struggle to find a roof over their head because single parents cannot purchase a HDB (until they reach 35). Most of the time thanks to their irresponsible partners who abandoned them. Still, they chose to keep the child because they really cannot bear to go through an abortion. Especially those who discover their pregnancy at a later stage, when you see the ultrasound scan of a fully formed baby, you have the heart to abort meh?? Also met one whom partner passed away the week they were going to tie the knot and shortly after found out she was 5 weeks pregnant. Some things are really not by choice. </span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hopefully one day the government would be a little more sympathetic and give single parents the same benefits because it really isn't easy raising a child on their own at all. I'm not anti PAP and do wish they continue running the country as they've been doing a great job so far and am not sure if the opposition can do better but there are little things like that I wish would change. Why should the parent be punished for choosing the brave step to raise a child? It is just so sad these parents get condemned for their bravery.</span></div></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div>Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-74901162791573116232015-07-28T20:12:00.001+08:002015-07-28T20:12:21.181+08:00Prenatal Massage<div style="text-align: center;">

Pregnancy isn't the easiest thing to go through. Many pregnant women tend to suffer from back ache and swollen feet during pregnancy due to carrying the additional weight all around.</div>

I have experienced times whereby I am so sore all over and so in need of a good massage but when I visit the massage palours I go to pre-pregnancy, they refuse to lay a finger on me as they say they are not certified pre-natal masseurs and afraid to harm my baby. So yes, you can't just walk into any random massage palour you see. </div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
How can prenatal massage help me?</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The therapeutic benefits of
massage for pregnant women haven't been studied very much. There's some
evidence that massage may help people who suffer from low back pain and
possibly those with chronic headaches, but the studies weren't done
with pregnant women. In any case, massage may decrease stress and
promote relaxation, helping you cope with discomfort even if it doesn't
specifically alleviate or prevent it.<br /><br />Carrying a baby inside you
changes your center of gravity and puts a lot of stress on your back,
neck, abdominal muscles, and shoulders. Pregnancy also relaxes your
ligaments, so that your pelvic joints are less stable, and changes your
posture, pulling your pelvis forward. Add to that the extra weight
you're carrying and you may find you've got an aching lower back.</div>

I personally prefer the home massage option and also did home post-natal massage after the delivery of my baby as was having Chinese confinement and could not go out for a month. I like Jessica and Rahayu a lot and will be using them for my 2nd pregnancy. Have 2 in case one isn't free hehe. Usually the home massage masseurs are very busy and it can be a little bit difficult if you want to do it last minute which is why I decided to put in 4 options (first 2 I've personally had a good experience with and the other 2 were recommended by mummy friends).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pamper yourself with a good massage once a
week if you can! It will really make your pregnancy more relaxing and
hopefully, enjoyable. :) I personally do it every 2 weeks! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Might do a post on post-natal massage when i've gathered enough places offering it (any mommas know of good post-natal masseurs, do feel free to e-mail me at tammytay@hotmail.sg).</div>

Haha.<div><br></div><div>But from next week onwards, imma start SHOWING OFF! EMBRACE THIS BUMP!!! It is a pretty good size now! By good size I mean it will no longer be mistaken as a food belly. Haha. </div><div><br></div><div>I look forward to sharing my #dressingthebump OOTDs on Instagram! </div><div><br></div><div>Now that it's my 2nd time being pregnant, I sorta have a better idea of how to dress. I don't want to go to work and meet people looking all sloppy and frumpy. Many have asked how I manage look the way I do while pregnant. Why thank you, that means I look good right? Haha. Well...I have my insecurities and have days I feel kinda shitty about the way I look but my partner reminds me I'm growing a life in me and i am loved the same so yay to comforting words. My way to feeling more confident and looking better while pregnant is to make an effort to put on make up because the clothes you can wear while pregnant are honestly pretty limited. Make up makes all the difference! Oh and yes, this time round my skin is SOOOO bad. I kinda fixed it but I guess I went a little overboard, dried it out and now it looks bad again. Damn...I've to spend another week trying to fix it again. Sigh. Good thing is a found a pretty good mask! Will share that with you guys after I test it out more times. Anyway<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">, bad skin shall not stop me from going out and feeling confident because I've my make up! Hehe. Ya I know people would be like "oh but make up will make your bad skin worse blahblah"...well it won't if you use products your skin isn't sensitive to and most importantly cleanse the make up thoroughly after!!! I've gone through bad skin and it managed to get better even with the usage of make up throughout - I hardly go a day without make up especially when my skin doesn't look its best. Of course it is good to let it breathe but bad skin really kills one's confidence! </span></div>Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-82302202941467052652015-07-16T08:00:00.000+08:002015-07-16T08:00:06.530+08:00Baby Doesnt Look Like Me<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0d9QEfZ4dRBEka1ITRYFu9dZ_kjqx7ovGLd81IDQL6U6ry3g5ZMC2Fp6mG5_McmUNbdQxKE-HZW0SMBeMq7bVrnnyDoHNQBG-4C3elNOatjjGtlulG71gEjLYLPAxCvEu8DK1NwLnRQg/s1600/IMG_5333.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="460" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0d9QEfZ4dRBEka1ITRYFu9dZ_kjqx7ovGLd81IDQL6U6ry3g5ZMC2Fp6mG5_McmUNbdQxKE-HZW0SMBeMq7bVrnnyDoHNQBG-4C3elNOatjjGtlulG71gEjLYLPAxCvEu8DK1NwLnRQg/s640/IMG_5333.jpg" width="640" /></a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So as the title says...and so does the picture above, MY BABY DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ME. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know...i've gotten this A LOT!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Like when we are out...people would be like "oh this is YOUR baby?! but he doesn't look like you at all".</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"YES HE IS MY BABY...I HAD HIM IN MY TUM TUM FOR 10 MONTHS AND GAVE BIRTH TO HIM! MINE MINE MINEEEEEEE!!!!"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And no it is not because i did soooo much to my face that he doesn't look like me... </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
HE JUST REALLY REALLY REALLY LOOKS LIKE HIS FATHER.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But recently, after 10 months....i have people tell me he has my lips. SO YAY! WE NOW HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON. Besides liking to laugh a lot. Haha.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You know...in the beginning, honestly had a few bad days...when people say "don't look like you". Like i feel so left out....like as if i'm some surrogate mother, baby sitter or nanny. But but but i've really came to accept it now lah and just laugh it off! After all, it is really a very cute sight when the man and little one get together!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now that i have number 2, i googled the weirdest thing..."is there anything i can do to make my child look like me?" HAHAHA. Like i actually hoped there would be something i could eat to make the baby inside my tumtum look more like me...LOL. I can't believe i'm admitting to it....oh if you could see what i google all the time you'd think i'm CRAY.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pretty interesting thing i've read though...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"I have heard that babies tend look like their dads for a biological/evolutionary reason so the dads will know it’s their baby and want to take care of it. There can’t be any doubt who the mother is, so it doesn’t matter so much if the baby doesn’t look like her.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A friend of mine has an explanation for this (unscientific, but smart nonetheless). She thinks that it goes back to our primal, caveman roots. Kids need to look like their fathers to facilitate bonding and to basically let the dad know that the kid REALLY does belong to them. Then maybe Dad will be more inclined to stick around to hunt and provide for his kids. We moms will love our kids no matter what they look like, but before the concept of monogamy and wedding bands, the dads needed a little extra reassurance that the kids are really theirs."</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I must also remember physical resemblance can take years to develop and isn't the only thing that makes family members appear similar. For me, i grew up not looking like any of my parents. Even my mom admitted when i asked her...she said that when she looked at me when i was younger, she wondered why i didnt look like her or my biological dad at all? Hearing that I secretly wondered if i was adopted?! Moreover, my biological dad seemed to not love me and was not good to me at all. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">But but now that i'm 24, MANY have said the resemblance to my mother is uncanny!!! My friends joke and call me by my mother's name because they say i look super like her now...haha. Like we have the same eyes and nose<i> but that is damn weird because i got zhng my face here and there...i did not do silicon implants or anything too crazy so the result isn't like very drastic but still, i did make improvements to my face and end up looking more and more like her.</i> Haha. They tell me the way we speak and behave is super similar. When i think about it, ya i really think we do have quite a lot in common...like for example our career paths...and that we both love food a lot that the man living with us wonder how we can eat so much and be eating all the time. So ya, 20+ years of living and now my mom can put a finger as to who i look like. Haha.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">As kids grow, more physical attributes may come out, like the way he holds his mouth or the way his nose grows. Also, they begin to mimic your mannerisms, speech patterns, facial expressions. So it may not be the case now but in future!!! So ya, for me...20 over years lor. Haha.</span></div>

I have drove past the restaurant a lot recently as i live around the area and have been visiting my friend's Teochew Porridge stall (Ah Seah) to eat (i love!). I always pack my food and go and haven't checked out most restaurants there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My friends and i decided to check it out one evening, since we were going to play MJ at a friend's place around the corner. When we were outside the restaurant, i actually didnt want to go in. The place looks SOOOO bare like it wasn't open....but there were people inside eating and another friends said she has heard good reviews on Happy Mookata so yeah, why not give it a shot. After all, it isnt good to judge a book by its cover right? Haha.</div>

Oh and wait, maybe i should type is as HaPpY MoOkAtA because that's what the sign shows....haha. I am puzzled and wonder why they choose that to be their logo. It just reminds me of "Twit" Days. DaYz PpL tYpEd LiKe DiZxZ. If you are born before '92, you'd know Twit isn't related to Twitter in any way....it sorta means Ah Lian? Well it was the days where typing X and Zto the word would be a "cool" thing to do....which THANK GOD came and gone FAST.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When we entered, we had to pay $25/person...it was EAT ALL YOU CAN! SO CHEAP!!!! Was what we all exclaimed. I don't think i've been to a Mookata restaurant that cheap....or in fact, a BBQ restaurant. Since the price was like that, i didnt expect much also lah. As long as it's fresh, doesn't smell and tastes ok, i would be contented! Oh and not forgetting good service and nice staff.</div>

I'm sorry to say this but the restaurant looks damn dodgy la...i just couldn't stop looking around thinking how i can improve the place. Haha. I guess it's all i think above ever since i started work at ImaginebySK66. Well, at least put up some pictures of food on the walls or something laaaaa. And the lights....omo the lights!!! It was so bright it just made me feel 10x more insecure about my bad skin im facing during pregnancy....haha. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But food wise, not fantastic but not too bad either!!! I ate SOOOO much! Considering i had like 5 beef and 4 garlic chicken all by myself because i liked it most out of the many choices of meat. It wasn't THAAAAT yummy as compared to the garlic chicken at one of my fav mookata places but price so much cheaper so OK la, i understand. The chilli was not bad but for someone who loves spicy stuff, it wasn't spicy enough for me. Wish they had like options for the spice level...actually i could've asked for chilli padi to make it more spicy and maybe i'd like it better then...shall do that the next time round! One thing though, i dont know why but the soup was just very bland, even after 2 hours of eating. From what i remember, most of the time the soup would be super tasty and flavorful but not the case for us at Happy Mookata Serangoon. Still, i was happy with the BBQ!!! I also feel that the service was good...they were quick to serve us and attend to us. Thumbs up.</div>

But all I can say is I'm so truly blessed right now I cannot be any more thankful for the things happening to me and the people around me. <div><br></div><div>Thank God for putting his angels around me, all the people I love - the people who matter most. Life just keeps getting better and better and things just go so smoothly without to stress and much worries at all recently. Maybe because I have really been trying my best to always be positive that's why things are going in that direction! This little family I have has made me so much better in so many ways...and I'm way happier as compared to before this family came around! Gone are the days I feel "lonely". Even though Number 2 will tire me out, I look forward to more fun and joy she will bring to this Home. </div><div><br></div><div>It's been a good year so far and although I know how life is full of ups and downs and happiness can be quite short-lived (and there I have my pessimistic self speaking...still happens occasionally haha), I want to treasure every bit of the good happening in my life now. Nobody has a perfect life as much as they wish they had (and portray it to be) but if you tell yourself it's good enough for you, that is perfect already. I don't think my "happiness" can be shared with yall on my social media platforms for various reasons but it's ok, life can still go on and be wonderful keeping many things more "private". People will talk, people will gossip, but they don't know what is really going on and can only judge from the little things they assume to know.<div><br></div><div>Tonight I just feel overwhelmed with happiness...and extremely grateful and I want to pen it down so when I'm down and not loving life as much, I'll look back and find this post to remind me of positive days and times which has happened to me. :') <div><br><div>"<span style="font-style: italic; text-align: justify; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">each day we get a chance to say ‘I love you’ to the ones we love is a blessing."</span></div></div></div></div>Tammyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07854243962876157387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7639021383981518076.post-13374601696562730962015-07-10T13:48:00.001+08:002015-07-10T17:41:57.293+08:00Week 21Halfway there! <div><br></div><div>Another 20 more weeks or less to go~</div><div><br></div><div>Just did my detailed scan and all looks great. So so happy and relieved! I don't know why but I was worrying so much because I couldn't feel my baby move at all. But soon! I'm guessing I should feel her by this week? </div><div><br></div><div>Finally have a visible baby bump that doesn't look like a food baby! Hehe. But still can hide under most of my clothes unless I wear like a body con...which I do if I am going to crowded places so I don't get pushed around and maybe, get priority...and bigger food portions LOL.

Actually Elroy is so easy-going it's like anyone also can! So like I don't feel important? Kinda childish and stupid to feel sad about it but I think it's something you'll only understand when you're a mummy!

A friend and i just started this little simple webstore selling cushion covers (and a few other stuff) called Imagine Inisde. We are just trying it out to see how it goes for now!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Focusing on mostly Cushion Covers for now! I personally love changing out the cushion in my house as different prints and colors give a different feel! And i'm always on a hunt for nice printed ones. Hopefully this will progress so we can bring in more stuff in future! :)</div>

Which means I'm already halfway through my 2nd pregnancy.<br>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
So I am now 5 months pregnant with a girl on the way and have a 10 month old baby boy. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
I have realized many differences in my 1st and 2nd pregnancies so I shall share some with you!</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Let me share some similarities between my 1st and 2nd first!</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
It's only 4 things haha...</div>
<div>
1. I did not have morning sickness at all!</div>
<div>
2. My appetite is crazy when pregnant and I just can't feel full for long so I'm always always eating.</div>
<div>
3. My hips and back hurt a lot...and it's only going to get worse. I dread going through the last few weeks with this pain in my hip again. During the last pregnancy it was so so bad.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Now the differences...</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Nobody Cares </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: Everyone is always concerned about you and asking about you. I get texts from close and not so close friends all the time asking how I'm coping with the pregnancy.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: Nobody cares. I'm serious! It's like as if I'm not pregnant at all? Haha. Even my partner and close friends sometimes forget that I am?! It's a bit sad but it's true. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Weight Gain and Food Choices</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: Eat EVERYTHING because I'm eating for two!!!! I usually limit myself to 1500 calories but since I can eat for 2, I can eat 3000 calories! Hungry at 3am, call mcdelivery and a mcspicy and filet O fish! Just eat because it means baby wants it! Give in to ALL my cravings because I can and deserve it and everyone feeds me all the time anyway. OMG, 10kg weight gain at halfway mark already?!</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: Eat healthier! Craving macs at 3am? Nahhhh I'll just eat bread and an apple! Because eating healthy means you don't put on unnecessary weight and it's much healthier for both mummy and baby. Only 5kg weight gain at my halfway mark! Oh and uhhh nobody cares too so nobody feeds me and encourages me to eat more anymore haha. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
-----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Heavy Stuff</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: *out shopping with friends* *attempts to pick shopping bags from the counter* "eh I help you carry la! You pregnant cannot carry so many things one!"</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: *carries 10kg+ baby boy* *picks up heavy shopping bags from grocery shopping* NOBODY CARES. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Always Updated</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: Remembering clearly what week + day I am. Getting updates on apps and constantly checking out Baby Center and What to a Expect. I can go into the app like 4 times in the same week reason it over and over again. Oh and wanting to know week by week what fruit size my baby is now. </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: "Eh, now what week already ah?" </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Buying Baby Stuff</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: "He needs this! And this! And this!!!" "Oh he is new born so I need to get NB clothes" I was buying things almost everyday??? Also I bought SO SO many things because I'm very kiasu which are pretty unnecessary and ended up not using because he grew so quickly too! </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: Everything can use Elroy's yay to saving money on that! Still buying though...BECAUSE FINALLY I CAN BUY PINK STUFF! Hehe. But I buy more practical clothes now and make sure I buy it bigger! Rather her be in oversized clothing so can wear the item longer haha.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
At Doctor's Appointment</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: "Oh no! I hit my belly ytd, is my baby alright?" "Oh no! I accidentally ate a bit of my friend's egg Benedict is my baby gonna be ok?" "I accidentally ate pineapple, is it ok?" Basically asking A LOT of questions and can spend almost 45min inside asking questions...one time I wrote down a list of things to ask my doc in case I forgot.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: *hears baby's heartbeat and sees baby on screen* "Your baby is growing well and right on track." "That's great! See you next month!" *out in 5min*</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
Bonding with Bump</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
1st Pregnancy: *plays classical music and place it near belly for baby* *read to the bump* I also cannot stop touching my bump...like ALL THE TIME. Whenever, wherever. Everyone wanted to touch it and talk to baby inside too.</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
2nd Pregnancy: *sleeps on belly or back* *feels uncomfortable* "Oh ya... got baby inside that's why!" </div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
----------</div>
<div>
<br></div>
<div>
I sound like I totally don't care about this pregnancy but I DO!!! Just that I'm not so paranoid and worried because I sorta know what to expect already and also...because people around me don't seem to care about me, I also end up not caring so much about me. Lol. Not to mention, my 10 month old baby is kinda too active already haha. Brought him to meet some baby friends and mummies told me my baby is much more active than their babies and they can't imagine how much more tiring it'll be for my helper and I when he starts walking. For now, he has to crawl EVERYWHERE so it's kinda bad alr. And he will keep trying to stand up. He doesn't sleep that much anymore so it's super tiring. Nothing can keep him still. Not even the iPad. I guess that's why I'm always so tired and tend to forget about my pregnancy. Lol. Not sure if it's a good thing or not because I'm not "enjoying" the process and remembering it at all. What if this is my last baby (I don't mind more but have to wait and see how things go)!! After all, having one boy and one girl is "perfect" alr right? After writing this, maybe I should try to start being more attentive to myself and enjoy being pregnant...haha.</div>

Oh my goodness! I finally cleared my skin and i am super duper happy!!! It's been a horrible 2 months for me suffering from acne and blemishes like never before. Ok, i'm lying...it's been probably 2 years since i last face such severe skin issues. Haha. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>3. La-Roche Posay Effaclar Facial Wash</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Available at most Guardians and Watsons in Singapore.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>4. Albion Skin Conditioner</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You can get this from Takashimaya Albion Counter in Singapore. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This 4 products have turned my skin around and have gained my confidence back (well sorta....). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Also, i have to thank Atlas Medical Clinic for being ever so patient with me and helping me do extraction on my skin when it was super congested! That must've helped clear up my skin too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm sorry but i did not take any pictures of my skin due to self-esteem issues i've been facing (sigh i really think it's the pregnancy hormones making me feel so horrible about myself). But i really swear by this 4 products which has saved my skin.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you are pregnant and facing acne problems, please try the 4 items out! I hope it will work as well on you as it worked for me. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Oh actually you don't have to be pregnant to use Belli, ANYONE with acne prone skin can use it to help get rid of acne! It may be a bit weird to use a "pregnancy" product when you aren't preggers but hey, if it worked well on my acne skin, why not! This will be my go to product even after pregnancy I'm sure! That is, if it'll still work next time...idk why but products stop working on my skin after long usage that's why I'm always changing. The ingredients are very safe for pregnancy that's why it's a recommended product for pregnant women.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was super difficult to find a good product. I've tried SO MANY in the past few months and most made my skin worse. Many products which worked for me in the past were unsuitable for pregnancy due to the ingredients it contained so i did some research and found Belli. Delivery took like a week, which was totally ok with me because i saw improvement in 3 days after using the products!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So my routine is super simple during the period i was trying to resolve my horrible skin.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In the morning, i wash my face with <b>La-Roche Posay Effaclar</b> and Pat <b>Albion Skin Conditioner </b>before putting my usual make up (primer, concealer, foundation blah). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At night, i use my Shu Uemura Oil Cleanser to remove my make up, then use Belli Facial Wash and Apply the Spot Control Treatment. On some nights, i leave the facial wash on for about 5-10 min before washing it off. I don't really know if it's working well but since they claim it's a versatile product and can be used as i wash off mask i decided to do that haha.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Belli does feel drying on my skin and my skin is really pretty dry now but it's so SOOOO much better than congested and pimply skin for sure. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will start to slap on a good moisturizer now and hope i don't start breaking out again. It's like during pregnancy, my skin is SO DIFFERENT! Super sensitive and acne prone :( Hoping it'll go back to normal after i give birth man.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now i need not pile on so much make up to cover up my bad skin because my skin is CLEARED! FINALLY. Ya...i know i shouldnt even have piled on make up on my bad skin because that will just make it worse but i really feel very crappy if i do not cover up the pimples and blemishes and i'd not want to see anyone or go out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
