My Great Grandma

This is my Great Grandma, she is already 92 year old now and she is still very healthy! She loves me alot and always come and beat my buttock! She will ask Mummy to bring me down for her to see everyday.

1st stay @ MY HOME

Ma-ma told Mummy that she should start bringing me home.

Hmmm arent where I am staying now my home?

Daddy appeared very excited though cos he keeps telling me that our own house is very nice!! And he miss watching his soccer on SCV cos he gotta walk to the coffee shop outside Ma-ma house when we stay there!

Ok so that got me excited and I looked forward to that! The ride back home was short and true enough I like MY home. I love Mummy and Daddy's bed!! Its so BIG ....



and my 2nd fav bed of all (cos the 1st is my Mummy's heehee)

The next morning, Daddy bath me again at the dining table ...

Mummy dressed me up ...

And off we go to Ah-Ma house after my nap ...

Looking forward to my next weekend here ...

Confinement is Over!!

Mummy is in a very good mood today cos she said that her 40-day confinement is finally over!! So to celebrate that, she decided to bring me out (I suspect that she is just using me as an excuse!!) to make my handprint and footprint @ Best Imprezzione.

But before that, she managed to convince Daddy to bath for me. I think it was more scary for me so shouldnt Mummy convince ME instead?!!?

After which we went to Best Imprezzione and Mummy & Daddy took very very very long before they could decide if they want to make the handprint and footprint for me cos it was very very very expensive but after thinking for very very very very long they decided to go ahead!

It was even worse then Daddy bathing me!! The aunty just took off my socks and make me step onto something cool and soft. After that she made me lie down on my tummy and pressed my hand against the same thing. I HATE to be on my tummy!! I cant see whats going on and I am so so so ANGRY (& hungry!!)

So after much struggle, they managed to get my handprint and footprint on my 41st day old and finally I could go home to drink my milk (cos Mummy was still pai seh to feed me in the car!!).

Mummy's Power Milk!!

Mummy has always been very ya-ya that I am a TBF baby (after I was discharged from hospital). See the difference now?

Me just love doing this ... drinking Mummy's Power Milk!

Burping Time!!

Mummy doesnt burp me all the time cos she feels that since I drink my milk directly from her, there shouldnt be much air bubble that goes into my tummy!

One night, I felt really so uncomfy that I kept crying and crying and crying. I only wanted Mummy to carry me and she was so mad that she shouted at me. But I am really feeling very bloated!! Cant she get it? BURP ME!!

It was after a long time then she remembered and after 3 magical stroke and the air was .... buuuurrrrrrpppp out!!! I felt so SHIOK and zzz immediately!!

So from that day onwards, Mummy will always burp me until ....

My 1st Jab (or no??)

Mummy say that I will be going for my jab today at the Polyclinic. I wonder whats a jab like? But I guess it should be painful cos she keeps telling me to be brave. And she kept shaking her head and say that I looked yellow =p

They dressed me up in a romper that Mummy borrowed from Aunty Yan Qing, doesnt it look big on me?

We waited very long at Polyclinic ... so boring!!

In the end the Dr send me for another blood test (OUCH!!) and say that my jaundice level is too high so she doesnt want to give me a jab and ask Mummy to bring me back next week.

Think my Ma-Ma will make me go under the sun, drink red dates water and bath in some funny yellow flower again! Save me!!!

1st Month Baby Shower

Today is my 1st month baby shower!!

We woke up early in the morning to cut my hair (Mummy was telling Daddy that she can't bear to shave me so she will just snip abit of my hair off for the time being), Mummy used such a HUGE scissors that I dun dare to see what she is doing behind my head!!

Cut my fingernails and I beg her to be careful!!

Dressed me up in BLUE!!

Then we went to my Ah-Ma (Daddy say that she is the fat ah-ma heehee) house to 'bai bai' and my Ah-Ma bought me a gold anklet for this occasion

After that we returned to Ma-ma house for the party, many people came and took turn to carry me. And many of them told Mummy that I still looked yellow =(

Finally the day ended with me receiving alot of presents and ang bow (which Mummy says will go towards my savings).

A photo of me and my Ah-Ma & the gold anklet at the end of the Party. And I didnt even get to eat *sob sob*

'Cute' Moments

Here are some pix of me that Mummy captured during my 1st mth

Sleepy ... sleepy so DO NOT DISTURB

A hungry baby is an ANGRY one

(In fact Mummy say that I am hungry like once every hour and she feels like a Moo-Moo)

Cute right?

See what see?!!? Never see cute bb before?

Some Moments with Daddy

My Daddy is a funny man! Mummy always say that he is very long winded and loves repeating himself. But I like him cos babies like repetitive stuff so he suits me fine heehee

Here are some moments that I have with my Daddy.

The first time I looked at him into his small eyes!

Daddy's first attempt to burp me

Success? Never! (Dun be fooled by the photo)

Where is my Umbilical Cord?

Daddy was playing with me until Mummy said:'Whats that brown plastic looking like thing there on the bed?'

Then she flipped up my shirt and exclaimed: 'It's his umbilical cord!! It has finally dropped out.'

She was so excited that she quickly took an ang-bao to keep the umbilical cord and of cos snap photos of ME with my dropped out umbilical cord.

Home Sweet Home!!

Finally I am going home today! Dr Tan said that my Jaundice has dropped to 5.8 and hopefully it remains that way!!

Mummy was so happy that she kept hugging me on the car!

I was so sleepy when I reach home that I just continued to zzz lots. Mummy and Ma-Ma thought that I was well-trained by the nurses but they are wrong hiak hiak - I am just resting so that I can create havok in future

My Fav Pose

Jaundice strike!!!

Today is my one-week old assessment at Dr Terence Tan clinic.

Mummy looked worried when everyone in the clinic came over to tell her :'Your baby is very yellowish' and when Dr Tan told her that they would need to do a blood test for me, she was even more worried.

At the clinic, the nurse strapped my ankle and prick my toe! It was so painful that I screamed until I couldnt hear myself. Mummy quickly carried me and pat me. I am so angry with her, how could she let the nurse prick me!!

We waited for an hour and finally the blood test result were out!! Dr Tan said that my jaundice level was 15.8 so he wants to admit me to the hospital immediately. Mummy and Daddy discussed and agreed as they want my jaundice level to go down ASAP.

I was admitted to St Gabriel Ward and the nurse just strip me (again!!), wear an eye mask for me and put me under blue light.

Mummy and Daddy come to visit me twice a day and Mummy always hold me in her arms and say:'Drink more milk ok, then you will recover faster' , 'Be a good boy, mummy will come back to fetch you home' I think Mummy cried cos I could feel some droplets falling on my face. I miss her too!!

Also I am very sleepy so whenever Mummy give me her milk, it feels so comfortable that I always fall asleep easily. So in the end, Mummy told the nurse to feed me whatever milk that she could express or formula milk (if she is not around) as they do not want to be interuppting my time under the blue light.

So here is my virgin-bottle heehee

I miss home!!

I luv Mummy, I luv Daddy

My mummy loves me so much that she make me pose with the mittens which 'declare' my luv for them (how lame!)

See how small I am, even the mitten looked bigger then my face!

My daddy rush home every night so that he can spend some time with me ... I luv my daddy too!!

But my mummy was getting worried cos I was getting more and more yellow each day - she say that I might be having jaundice.

So my ma-ma started to sun me every morning, she strip me until I am left with just the diaper and leave me out in the sun. Well whatever lar ... I just want to zzz

Back @ Ma-ma Place

Finally home sweet home!!

The first photo that mummy took of me in my tiny winnie little PINK cot ... my mum said that it has been passed down from my uncle's generation (hey dun get it wrong ... my uncle is only 5YO!!) ... but the cot looked so huge when I was put in cos I was really tiny

As dengue was on a raise, mummy send daddy to buy a mosquito net from kiddy palace and it cost him $39.90!! *heartache* but my mummy only wanted the best for me! My daddy is the super stingy type one hiak hiak

See the pink pillow on me? Thats hand-made my ma-ma with the 'dou-ya ke'. She collected them from the aunty in the market, sun them and then sew it into pillow for me. She made FIVE!!

My mummy say that its to make me feel safe and secure just like how I feel when I was in her tummy.

I feel so loved!

My Stay @ Mt A

Boy ... it was hard work getting out from mummy's tummy ... so tiring *yawn*

Mummy was SO SO SO happy after giving birth that she just kept SMSing everyone about my arrival!

The one and only photo of me awake hee hee

This is her fav photo of me cos she say that I look like I am digging my nose

My Hospital Card

The nurse put me with many other babies in the nursery. I am one of the smallest baby there but I am the loudest hahahaha

I see mummy whenever the nurse thinks that I am hungry. Mummy tries to feed me milk but its so difficult to drink, esp when everything is so dark & blur. I just open my mouth as BIG as possible hoping that mummy will position me correctly. But mummy is so bad at it that I always end up going back to the nursery hungry. Anyway I am so sleepy ...

Arrival of the Terror

10 Sept @ 1pm
PONG, HU, BAO ... mummy & daddy must be playing MJ again!!

Mummy was telling Uncle Han Beng that it would be the last game for her cos she will be giving birth in a few days time ... hmmm so does that mean that I should be getting myself ready to meet them?

Mummy said that tomorrow is Sept 11 ... if I am born on that day ... I am really a true blue terror ... and that sounds like a REAL COOL IDEA ...

11 Sept @ 2am
Mummy decided that enough is enough ... she told daddy that she wants to go to Mt A cos she thinks that I am making my way out ... mummy is the smartest heehee

On the way to Mt A, mummy was telling daddy that she is taking the epidural and no one was to stop her hahaha

11 Sept @ 3am
The nurse admitted us and she said that mummy was already 3cm dilated ... hey not bad ar ... I just gotta push harder and I will be out soon!

Mummy had epidural so she felt alright but she was SUPER HUNGRY!! Me too ...

Fun Time @ Mummy's Tummy

The 40-week stay in mummy's tummy was FUN!!!

After recovering from her shock (after 36hrs), she quickly got an appointment with Dr Henry Cheng to check if I was REALLY there (she was hoping that those funny kit made a mistake). Thanks to the fantastic equipment (not 3D or 4D but good decent equipment) they managed to catch sight of me ... my daddy said that I look like a star in the galaxy.

And from that day onwards, I have NEVER failed to remind my mummy that I am around heehee ("p)

I hate drinking plain water ... so mummy had no choice but to drink coke (with salt), 100plus, H2O, orangina behind my grandma's back. Her fav drink was the COLD home-made ice lemon tea from the S11 coffee shop!

I hate oily, spicy stuff ... so mummy will get daddy to tar bao her fav vege rice back from the coffee shop. I luv to eat steam egg ... yummy!!

I hate to have my meals late ... so mummy will need to take her meal on time if not I will kick up a big fuss in the tummy ... I HATE to be hungry!!!

I love spitting food out ... esp food that I dislike, to name a few curry, milk, oily food etc ... to put it simply ... I am a very fussy eater for the 40-weeks.

I hate people to talk about me ... so the more they talk about me ... the more I will prove them wrong heehee so my mummy was always afraid of saying the 'wrong' thing. She always tell people that she has a 'pan-tang' bb

Though I let my mummy 'suffer' lots ... she still loves me and draw strength from seeing me grow healthily inside her. She loves to see the candid shots that Dr Cheng takes of me.

She was always asking Dr Cheng if I would be out before the 40 weeks and the answer was NO ... she kept telling me to come out earlier as she kept saying that this was the most terrible period of her life. I wonder why? I am just abit fussier with my meals thats all.

I luv her tummy ... its so dark, safe, secure and best of all ... I can be with her ALL the time.

Then again, I am eager to meet my daddy (whom I keep hearing his voice & he loves singing some obiang chinese songs to me when I am trying to zzz), grannies, grandpa, aunties & uncles. But I know the best time to come out and thats what Dr Cheng told my mummy too ... so all she could do was to wait & wait & wait ... ...
