2nd month Afterparty!!

The bubs turned 2 months old 2 days ago, 7th June. We decided to have a little celebration. Well, not really, but we decided to head out to eat and what better place than the new Marina Bay Sands!

Oh boy is that place huge! We walked about for a bit, really didn't feel like you're in Singapore. Really posh, and really expensive! Haha. I remember looking at all the different boutiques and imagining the day i walk in. heh. :p We settled on dining at Rise Restaurant, which is part of the hotel i believe. AMAZING selection of desserts for the buffet. I literally OD-ed on them, so much so, i felt i needed to puke if i ate any more panna cotta. :/

So we got home and changed Kiara and got her ready for bed, but the little lady decided she wanted to stay up. And boy did she really want to stay up! So for her 2nd month birthday, she held and afterparty. ALL THE WAY TILL 5AM!!!!

She didn't want a feed, her diaper was nice and clean and definitely not colic either. You learn after a while to differentiate your baby's cries. From hunger, to a wet nappy etc. And she she cried, or more like shouted, she just wanted attention. So we tried and tried, cradled her, cuddled her, swaddled her, sang her songs. You name it, we did it! She just didn't want to sleep. Sham and I were beyond exhausted! Finally, she decided she wanted a feed and fell asleep. Same time clubs in Singapore close, that was the same time our little munchkin decided to snooze. At 5am!

Guess it's bound to happen every now and then. Now thinking back, guess she just wanted to 'party' for her 2nd month birthday. :) Here's the pretty dress i made her wear for her special occasion. $35 from MotherCare. Should have remembered to put a bow on her head! :(

Here's a couple of pictures of her. She's more smiley now. Giggles and 'talks' alot! Oh i know she's just gonna be such a chatty girl. Then again, which girl isn't? :p

One of the positions she sleeps in. My little silly girl.

 

Well it's extremely late, was doing some work because it's the only time i get to when Kiara is having a long sleep. Going to tuck into bed next to my little girl and my better half. Kiara sleeps with us, only because it makes breastfeeding easier! Mastering how to breastfeed lying down is the best! That way i still get to snooze while she feeds! :)

"Close your eyes, go to sleep,
mr sandman is waiting,
just to guide you on your way,
with his basket full of dreams
and the moon, up on high
shines his light on your pillow
and the stars, in the sky
will be twinkling for you."

Checkup at the Docs!

So yesterday was my monthly check up with my Doc to see if our baby is doing well, im doing well etc. Was so excited to go down to see Dr Heng (She's attached to Parkway East Hospital) because then i finally get to see my little ninja during the ultrasound scan! Only thing i wasn't looking forward to was taking my blood test. I can take tattoos, i like getting inked. But needles, i can't take needles. Anyways, In December, i had to head down to the hospital to get a scan done. Think its called the 'Fetal Abnormality Scan', where they check if everything is growing at the proper rate, and all that jizz. So i collected the documents as well as the photos, though we couldn't get a 3D scan of her face because she absolutely refused to turn around to show her face on that day, so we don't have a frigging 3D scan. I'm quite bummed about that really. So the people at the hospital told me to make sure i bring it down to my next appointment visit with Dr Heng so ...

A baby brewing, again?!

I can't thank the people who have followed my blog from the get-go for all your words of encouragement and love. Thank you for pushing me to write again. It warms my heart to hear when my readers tell me they enjoyed reading my journey and somehow felt like they were right there with me too. Big love to you all.  Here i am sitting down and staring at the screen. I feel rusty. I haven't done this in a while. My last post was, well ages ago! But - hello! Seeing as i set up this baby blog of mine some 6 years ago, i felt it is only right that i continue writing in it seeing as, as most of you would know by now, i am baking baby number 2 in the oven! I'm in the last leg of my pregnancy now. I'd call it the 'uncomfortable' stage.  Where you feel like a whale,  your legs are sore,  your body's aching and the baby is kicking like there's no tomorrow.  But,  kicking is good.  Kick away baby,  so momma knows you're growing well.  So let's ...

Low Self Esteem Post-Pregnancy?!

I've had writers block for months to be honest. I felt things were just getting pretty monotonous with this blog and just lost my motivation to write for a while. Then i thought, this is not only a baby blog! It's for you, the mummies, who take the time to read about my journey. I wanted to be able to write about things that bothered me as a mom. Things that not many would write about. Things that truly were embarassing or even ashamed to talk about. So you could share this part of my journey too and know that if you feel like how i do, you are not alone! :) Well, as the title suggest, i had a bout of self esteem problems right after Kiara came along. This was totally new to me! I was always very confident about myself. I loved how i looked, talked, walked etc. I loved my flaws too. I guess that was also because i somehow managed to maintain the slim figure etc. I was even very confident about myself when i was pregnant. I felt beautiful. (Note: Not all pregnant women seems to ...
