3 Months & 4 Days old!

Oh boy!

It's been a while hasn't it? I don't mean to neglect, but i guess its harder to put aside time to blog these days especially since Baby K always wants me around her. We've been staying at the in-law's place the last 3 weeks, hence no blog updates. But, we're back home now. So how is everyone doing? We've been really good! Here's some updates!

We went for K's follow up for her jabs last monday. It's her second dosage for Hep B etc till she's 6 months before she needs to go for the next round. Surprisingly, she was really good! I thought she would be ballin'her eyes out, but she cried for all of 2mins before she was back to her normal bubbly self! Our PD told us that she might burn up with a fever, but she didn't and slept well through the night. Of course, she still woke up for her feeds. :)

However, today we noticed that her breathing was hard and somewhat blocked. She kept waking up many times in discomfort the whole of last night! Plus i noticed that she was couching and throwing up a little. We decided to bring her in to see her PD. Unfortunately, our own PD was unavailable, so we went to one that is at Forum that is called Olive Tree Baby & Kids Clinic. Dr Tan came highly recommended by Sham's parents as well as his bestfriend, so why not give her a try! And my gosh! I LOVE her! It may be just one visit, but she was really in depth in explaining things to us, as she does not immediately lean towards medication! She in fact, tells us to try more organic/natural ways before going on medication. I was telling Sham that we should change our PD. I like her THAT much. Please click on the link for more info. :)

K's put on quite a bit of weight too, she's now 5.38kg and stands at about 59.5cm. She now knows how to pull our fingers and put it into her mouth, she does NOT like pacifiers which is a good thing. She loves to suck her hands and if she manages to, she'll suck her thumb. :) HEr neck has always been pretty strong, though she still bobs her head every now and then.

She's started to use her BabyBjorn which is great because she used to cry when we put her in it. So real glad that she's taking to it. :) I'm still breastfeeding, and she's more dependent on the boobs than the bottle, which can make it pretty hard when i'm not around, as she likes to go on the boobs to fall asleep. :l We've gotten her to have some proper routine when it comes to her nap time in the afternoons.

  • 1st Nap at about 12/1pm
  • 2nd nap at about 3/4pm

 

It used to be so hard to get her to sleep before! Finally managed to get some sort of a routine going. :D Finally, she isn't so nocturnal anymore! She goes to bed at about 9/10pm every night, depending on how fast she falls asleep. so YAY!!!  Well, i'm off to put her to sleep! Thanks for taking the time to read, will update more soon! Love love! Xx

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 ...

New Paper New Face 2011

Hey! Today, i bring you news about this year's New Face competition! :) For those of you who don't live here in Singapore, the New Face competition is one of the biggest modeling competitions held here. It had unearthed beauties from all walks of life and many of whom has made quite a name for themselves in the industry. It has helped so many girls shine and achieve their goals, and i am glad to say, i made it to Top 20 last year and have graduated to the very prestigious alumni of New Face girls. :) Every year since i joined the modeling industry, i entered a competition, to better myself and gain confidence. I remember i started off with Singtel Grid Girls back in 2008 and not having much confidence at all. But the New Face competition was something i had wanted to join since the age of 15. It took me another 2 years, to build up that confidence to go to the walk-in auditions and i am glad i did. (Spot me if you can!) It has been such an amazing experience for me, i learned s...

Baby Recipe: Chicken & Carrot Porridge [Plus Storage Solutions]

This is probably one of Kiara's favourite dishes and i believe many asian kids too! It's easy peasy to make and tastes delish! What you'll need: Minced Chicken Diced Carrots Rice (Brown Rice if you want the healthier choice) Bovril (optional) Garlic (optional) Chicken Stock (optional)   For all the items that i stated as optional, it's really up to you which you would prefer. Some would rather skip bovril & garlic and just use chicken stock, where as some would do the opposite. So that part is really up to you how you would like your baby's food to be. I personally have used all 3 methods and Kiara likes them all the same. Step 1 : Add rice and carrots into a pot of boiling water (or boiling chicken stock). You can add  finely chopped garlic if you would prefer to add more flavour to the dish. I let this simmer in for about 15/20 minutes till the carrots are relatively softer. Plus rice takes a while to cook too! Once done, add in your minced chicken which cooks...
