QUOTE(hydroboy87 @ Feb 20 2021, 11:47 PM) Dear Dads, I have posted in this thread previously. I have been blessed with a beautiful child. He is growing well and will be 2 soon. ori post truncated. hi there, i roughly have the same experience as you. your situation is almost 90% similar to mine, except that my wife is not as severe as yours. however, do you know the real reason why your wife behave as such? most probably not your lack of effort. as for my wife, it was mostly due to tiredness from lack of sleep (my boy clings on her at night) and also lack of self confidence due to body (she slim back to ori shape but was unhappy with her scar). anyhow brother, stay strong bcz i totally know how you felt because i been thru the same phase and my son is now 1.5 years old. try get someone who can talk to her and see what is her real concern..

i see all u guys are trying to give him the "usual" advices on managing relationship but i think i know how hydroboy feels..
it's not like he lacks effort or what.. sometimes is really just the wife part... the normal things wont work anymore.. sth is holding her back.. unless he/we figure out what is holding her, everything he/we do will not work..
that's y i kinda know how he felt, bcz my situation is the same, but not as severe as his wife.. his wife now is more like total denial and rejection.. no matter how many good things u do or effort u put, to her, it doesn't solve the problem..
yes, probably deep inside her she might realise and appreciate what u did... because truth to be told, not all guys can do the same.. i have seen many families where the husband just couldn't be bothered and let the wife do everything.. but in our situation, we did all we can and in fact, can be said that we did more than what we are expected but that doesn't solve the root cause..
hence, i think... we really need to understand what is she undergoing, psychologically....

QUOTE(hydroboy87 @ Mar 2 2021, 11:25 PM) Thank you for understanding bro. Still trying my best to work things out. I do understand postpartum can be painful both mentally and emotionally. besides u, can anyone else talk to her? does she listen or speak to other ppl? she needs someone that she can talk to now.. obviously not u.. maybe her parents, friends or siblings.. someone that she is willing to open up and tell what's wrong.. then u try to talk to that person and see what can be done.. sometimes, it is just that one particular matter that holds her down..

QUOTE(SheepGeeks @ Mar 12 2021, 04:25 PM) Guys, any near mamipoko diapers grade that is cheaper? My newborn will turn reddish on his private part on Huggies diapers. Apple crumby also seems quite expensive. You know those day care only replace his diapers once every 2 hour and my baby is a troll. mamypoko quite affordable for the normal range. airfit also quite cheap if bought during sales... and bcz airfit can contain more, sometimes it is cheaper to buy airfit (normal drypers use 2 pcs but airfit only 1 pc) so far my boy tried from the cheapest pet pet to mamypoko airfit also no problem.. closest to airfit i think like genki or huggies green colour also ok

QUOTE(SheepGeeks @ Mar 12 2021, 05:12 PM) Genki haven't try before. Huggies green was ok during my care but not for the day care. As a first timer parent, I was quite shocked at the diapers and formulae cost. I thought diapers was like RM20+ ish per pack and formulae is around Rm80~90, but it turned out like 2X or 4X of my expectation lol. No wonder M40 and even lower T20 couldn't dine out until their kids grows. haha now u just new born.... wearing S or M size... wait till you get XL size and your kid drinks like 8oz per meal... that's where the real pain start..

QUOTE(SheepGeeks @ Mar 13 2021, 02:49 PM) Using Sudo cream now. Should be ok la. Just that, the day care dont care one lo. Their brain already set to change diapers every 2 hour. My baby always like to pee or poop during or right after diaper change one. Sometimes need to change 2 diapers at 1 single diaper change 😑😑 oh sudo cream is fine... best bang for buck imo.. then your day care really sux.. that's probably the main reason instead of diaper problem..

QUOTE(mikhailcbh @ May 10 2021, 03:54 PM) My son is 1.5 years old, currently drinking Similac Gain Plus. I am thinking of upgrading it to Pediasure as I think he is a a bit underweight at 10kg. Is Pediasure is really better than Similac Gain Plus? Or just a Marketing Gimmick. how about his solid intake? mine also 1.5 y/o but 12kg now
