Colic Horror!

A couple of days ago, we went to KK Women's and Childrens Hospital because Kiara was crying non-stop for 2 hours straight. It really broke my heart to see her cry that way. Usually i'm fine when she cries for any other thing, but seeing her tears and the pain in her eyes, was just unbearable.

We were actually trying to put her to sleep, and then out of no where, started crying uncontrollably! For some reason, we totally forgot to swaddle her, that actually helps a whole lot, but it just slipped our minds, we tried gripe water too but to no avail. Sham then decided what the heck, we'll just go to the hospital. We ended up staying at the hospital till 5am! Doc gave us some drops to help with her colic, and so far so good. She's gone to bed every night without ballin' her eyes out. I can't wait till she passes 4months. They say colic is the worst in their early months. :(

Anyways, on to some updates, we took her weight when we got to the hospital, guess that's the common procedure. So glad my little lady is packing on the pounds! She now weighs a whopping 4.5KG!! She's getting so chubby, her cheeks are so huge i constantly have to urge to pinch/bite them. Heh.  She's become quite a handful, most babies her age sleep mostly still, she's ALWAYS awake. She fights her sleep, just so she can see what's happening around her, little nosey girl. Then she gets so cranky and thats when we've got to calm her down and try put her to sleep. And well the cycle just repeats.

Time is passing us by so quick though, in 5 days, she'll be exactly 2 months old. :( Oh they grow so fast don't they? I miss how tiny she used to be already! She's such a big girl now! OY! Anyways, i picked up the cutest booties from MotherCare a couple of weeks ago. They cost $21 and they were just too adorable to pass! A little bunny bootie for my little girl born in the year of a rabbit! :D

Here's some pictures of our little munchkin and how much she's changed. Check out her chubby chub-chub cheeks! Don't you just wanna bite them! :p

 

You know what's really funny, everyone who sees her pictures automatically think she's a big baby, but she's actually quite tiny still. Oh the way pictures deceive you!

Ps: I'm gonna start typing out other posts and save them in my drafts because, i never seem to finish one post without the princess demanding my undivided attention. That way, perhaps i will be able to update this blog a little more. :)

Toodles!

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 ...

Be your own woman.

I've been meaning to pen this down for a while. Something rather nasty happened to me over New Years which should not have happened, but it did. Lets just say that i was told by a man (not my boyfriend, for if he said such a thing we wouldn't be together)  that "Women need to be women - and you are not" . He went on to tell me something along the lines that the Man IS the man of the house . And i don't know if what he meant was that i should bow down and let a man do whatever in the household but that was how it sounded like to me. Now, for people who know me - they know i'm a very strong woman. I have had a pretty tough time growing up. Even harder paving my way through life. And the biggest change came when i had my beautiful daughter. But some how, i have pushed through and i can safely say - i'm in a good position in my life now. It WILL only get better. Prior to having my kid, i did not have much working experience. Yes, i worked in the F&B...

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 ...
