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 ...

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 ...

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...
