My darling hubby, jin - for waking up to help out with the 4am feeds. my in laws for staying with us and helping to watch the household so that I could be out of the house 10 hours a day with a peace of mind. My helper for taking such good care of bean and mini bean while i am out..and the nanny for giving mini bean lots of love (and spoiling her silly by carrying her non stop!)..and and...(backgroud music comes on : twinkle twinkle little stars)...and my manager at work for being understanding and letting me get off work travel..the cleaner aunty at work for keeping the toilets clean so i can do all my pumping in there and catch that 5 minute cat nap. thank you all, I love you..you guys rock!!

Congrats on your AWARD! You deserve it.:)

How come you have to pump in bathroom? Time to ask HP for a small closet for all the new mothers!

thanks luv :)

HP does hv a nursing room but it's cramp and cold (air cond) and with my top off, it's even colder! and you have to line up cos there are only 3 cubicles and seems like everyone pumps around the same time..and then when does, hv to wait to the sink cos everyone washes at the same time.

so the disable toilet which is huge and non air cond and has its own sink works great :)..just hv to ignore the ppl rattling the door once in a while. haha
