FollowWhen Alycia and Sherilyn were sick last week, we forbade them from getting near Baby C…..but still they tried every way they could to get near their baby sister and even tried to kiss her. Their hands were practically all over their new baby sister each time they see me breastfeed her. The 2 gals…

Mummy’s Milk Is The Best
3 ounces of milk in under 15 minutes…. not bad huh? That’s how much milk I can express out yesterday. Hopefully the supply will increase in days to come. I must thank Barb once again for this wonderful Avent ISIS manual breast pump. It sure feels better than the Medela electric breast pump that I…
Too Difficult For A 4-Year Old?
Yucky Bath Time
This is the pail of brown herbal water that I have to bathe myself with everyday. The water is brewed from a concoction of Chinese herbs. My CL boils the herbs for 1-2 hours everyday and sometimes she adds ginger into the concoction to brew. It really does feels yucky, not to mention the stinging…

Drunken Baby
After reading Vien’s post on her drunk Cassie, I thought I want to post one on my own drunk Cassie. Yes, our gals have the same name – Cassandra! This is how Baby C normally looks after a session of mummy’s milkie…… The content smile…. and a drunken look… But the moment Baby C is…
Gifts For Baby C
Middle-Child Syndrome?
I really don’t know what is wrong with Sherilyn but she is really making me very pissed off with her. Several months before Baby C’s arrival, she started to be really willful, rebellious, disobedient and hard to handle. I am really lost for ways to handle her. She takes no instructions from me or my…
Baby C @ Day 16
That’s Cassandra at day 15 and day 16 Baby C’s legs are very thin, they were even thinner at birth, just like skin wrapped round her bones. Sherilyn even commented yesterday that baby C’s legs are like ‘chicken legs’, how very right she was in her description, LOL! I’ve been nursing Cassandra all day and…
A Little Update On My Life As A Mum To 3 Kids
I have been nursing Baby C the whole day today….. non-stop and it is really tiring me out. Sometimes, she just wants to suckle my teats for comfort and not for milk, otherwise she wouldn’t go to sleep. Sherilyn is also desperately seeking a lot of my attention lately. She has been resisting our instructions and would bawl…

Baby C @ Day 14… And She Has A Name Now
Today, daddy finally went to JPN to register Baby C’s birth. Finally, daddy has settled for the name Cassandra Yap Kay Lee. So Baby Callista, Caitlyn or Caeley is now called Cassandra or Cassi in short. Baby C is starting to get addicted to my teats. For the whole of this afternoon, she has been…
Personal Injury Attorney
When hubby met with a motor vehicle accident last month, his MPV was badly wrecked. The irony of this accident is that the person who crashed his car onto hubby’s car is a driving instructor and examiner. Good thing he admitted his fault and not try to deny being in the wrong. Also, luckily hubby…
Baby C’s Drinking Pattern
Baby C’s appetite and demand for milk are becoming stronger each day. My breastmilk is insufficient to satiate her ravenous appetite. I now have to increase the formula to keep her tummy full. From 2 ounces of formula a day, she’s now drinking around 4-5 ounces of formula on top of my breastmilk. My breastmilk…
My 2 Helpers
That’s how Alycia and Sherilyn entertained themselves while I was busy with Baby C yesterday. Alycia who is a clean freak told me that her toys and box to store her toys were very dirty. My maid was busy, so I gave the gals some wet wipes and they were more than happy to wipe their toys…
Baby C At 10 Days Old
Baby C is quite a good baby. She wakes up 2-3 times a night for nursing and does not poo poo in the middle of the night anymore. I am nursing her on demand and sometimes I supplement it with a total of 2-3 ounces of formula in a day (once or twice a day) when my breastmilk is insufficient…
