Time flies, Adel is 10 months old now. It’s a bundle of joy to see her happy face and genuine sweet smile everyday. She is a great eater too, never picky about food; whatever Sri serve, she would happily gobble down her throat.  She has two pearly white at the bottom of her gum, constantly looking for things to bite in order to soothes her itch gum. I could feel her teeth while breast-feeding her. She used to bite me, ouch, but after a few times of “NO”, she learnt. She could pull herself up since 9 months and could crawl super fast now.

There’s two more months to go before I decided to stop breast-feeding her. If I could I would not stop, I think I am gonna miss feeding her so much. I really want to breast-feed her as long as I could. However, I can’t, simply I don’t feel eager enough to share my breast between my daughter and my husband. Sounds funny eh? I wonder does breast-feeding mothers out there facing such dilemma?Therefore, I need to put a stop to it and takes care of my hubby’s need too. I hope I have done enough for Adel. 

Adel very busybody,  disturbing her brother doing homework.

As for Ivan, he is growing fast and demanding as well. He is better at handling homework and Mandarin. While watching “Wah Lai Toi” with me, he could point out words like “牛肉,妈妈,头” at the subtitle on the screen and words at Chinese restaurant’s wall. He is crazy about Ben 10 toys, watch and games at the moment, every now and then, he wants toy. Boy, do you know that mom and dad’s wallets are very windy and have very big hole edi?

Ben 10 toys. 

 Ivan gave me this. Sweet! 

Well, hope all mother’s are happy in this Mother’s day. Happy mother’s day to all dedicated mothers.   

It’s been ages since my last update. Adel has turned one month old last Saturday. We had a full moon party at my in-laws place. It was a splendid and happy moment but a very tiring one as well.

Things are going pretty fine except poor Adel caught flu bugs and cough from her elder brother and mommy. I had serious spinning headache, vomited yesterday morning, high fever of 38.9 degree. Phew, luckily after taking medication from doc, feel so much relief now.

Brought Adel to see doctor Eric last night, took her 2nd Hepatitis B injection. She was cranky the whole night. She cried so loud during the jab, like someone has punched her so hard, oh poor girl! I hope she would recover before my CL leaves on this Saturday. One thing for sure I am happy about Adel is she is better drinker than Ivan; she could drink 4-5 oz of milk at one go. Her current weight is 4.1kg. I just hope my milk supply is enough for the little one. At the moment my each expressing milk is about 4-5 0z as well.

My confinement is over except CL is still around, she forbid me to take bath but I curi curi take also. Kekekeke! She is good, I am happy with her performance so far. One thing I like about her is she talks to Adel a lot; Adel seems to be responding to her talk. She even trains Adel to use the potty already. Haha! Well, I sure going to miss her when she is gone. I have to cook and take care of everything, feeling so reluctant to let her go. I had become so lazy with her around, just hope that I could pick up the pace and be an efficient mom again.

Korkor having fun with his friends Zoe.

Our daughter- Baby Adel (pronounce as er-dell) .

She arrived on 11th of July, 2007 in the evening at 6:13pm; Weight - 3.18kg.

It was a planned induce 0n Wednesday. We checked in to the hospital at 10am. Took 2 hours for CTG test; clearing bowel; registration. Dialation was only 2cm at that point; started our drip at 12pm, real pain only came after 3:30pm. Called doc for epidural, done at about 4:20pm. Feeling high and drunken, both legs were numb and slowly the serious dialation started at 5cm at 5:30pm. Feeling sleepy but relax, when doc came to check me at 6pm, it was already 10cm. Huh, luckily she hasn’t leave yet. So started my push once, twice and there came my precious daughter. Haha! Fast eh? Finally everything is over.

I stayed at the hospital for 3 nights as Adel needed to go for photo therapy for her Jaundice. It’s kind of worrying even now, the fifth day, I noticed she turned yellowish again this morning and she sleeps way too long this afternoon. It’s always ache at the heart seeing little one not well. I am really worried about her right now, hopefully she is okay after 2morrow’s check up.

No Sign of baby yet. I went for a check up on Friday and did a CTG to check if baby’s food and Oxigen is sucfficient. According to gynae, baby’s heart beat chart wasn’t very good. If there’s no news yet on Monday, we will admit to induce on Tuesday. Looks like my tummy is so cosy that little one prefers to stay inside. I am so heavy now, 67.5kg from 50kg.

Meanwhile life is getting a little bored and I have no mood to go out kai kai due to the big fat look I have now. I know I shouldn’t be saying this but it’s a little torturing to wait like this.

Thanks for all your concern and sms-es. I am still here and baby is still inside me tummy. Feeling a little painful last night. Hopefully she will come soon. Incase you are wondering what happened to me these 2 weeks. Haha…me like disappearing lidat hor? Actually nola…just enjoying myself reading, watching movies, eatting and lots of sleep preparing for THE MOMENT. The sign are there already, I plan to see gynae again if she is not here yet on Friday. May opt for induce.

Brought Ivan to watch his favourite movie Surf’s Up in the cinema. He was delighted.

It’s coming already. Look at my big fat tummy and swollen face. I am extremely moody as well lately, feels like crying sometimes. Can’t stand a drive from office to mil place as well. I would be all stressed up if I am in a car for too long. Arrgh…my virgina feels like it’s gonna explode. I walk like an old duck but luckily weight is still the same as last week~65kg. I get tired very easily and a little anxious about the arrival of HER.

My back ache and painful at the pelvis area, I couldn’t sleep well at night too. So much suffering eh? I am waiting for you Sunshine.

For me, weekends are God made heaven. I would long for doing things with my son or husband. However, I am disappointed sometimes, as hubby is a late owl. He does not sleep until 3am in the morning and wakes up at about 12pm the next day. I have been catering to this kind of lifestyle for years. He would wake up early only if I force him to or we have some important family gatherings. When told him about how I like him to bring Ivan or me out for morning tea on Sunday, he would always say yes, yes, I would wake up early tomorrow. So much promise, however, when tomorrow comes, he would sleep like a pig. If I attempt to wake him up, I will be scolded. Gosh!!! I hate this so so much!  When I ask him about why can’t you sleep early the day before? His reply is “You are not me, you can never understand”. Aiyoo, Man! Always have excuses to cover their asses.  

On the other hand, Ivan is getting very sensitive over every single daily thing. He would wail and throw tantrum over minor things. I can never give in to his behaviour. I whacked and scolded him a lot lately. I know I shouldn’t be doing that, I am trying to control my emotions but I just can’t cope with so much noise and commotion. Poor little fella, he lost so much weight. The other day, while crying, he stamped his feet hard on the floor while questioning me, “Why u beat me everyday”, Why u scold me everyday”. Waillllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. *Sigh*

Got some of these stuff from Fabulous mom a while ago when they had sales. Preparing for the arrival of no. 2. Got this Adiri - Breast Bottle, thinking to let the confinement lady feed her at night so that I could rest well. I purchased 2 nursing tops, a bra and a milkmaid tea here as well using my ppp money. Kekeke!
