It was a fruitless, stressful and super frustrating day for me yesterday. My maid and I had spent the whole day coaxing Baby to pee into the specimen bottle but she just would not cooperate. I kid you not, we really spent the whole day from 9:30am through 5ish pm with lunch break and short…
Baby’s fever has subsided since yesterday. I will be bringing her to the hospital again soon. Our paed said that if she is fever-free for more than 24 hours, the antibiotics jabs can be stopped. My next hurdle is to feed her with oral antibiotics for the next 1-2 weeks. Today, we are to collect…
These pix were taken 2 days ago when Baby was down with high fever and was feeling under the weather. She was terribly crabby and edgy and would cry over the slightest things. After I had dressed Baby up to get her ready to go to the hospital, Alycia zoomed into the room and comforted…
…but she’s on home leave, which means the doctor has given us consent to go home. However, I have to bring Baby to the hospital 3x a day for antibiotics jabs. This is Baby’s first UTI since her Ureteral Reimplantation surgery more than 6 months ago. Both the surgeon and I are perplexed as to…
Baby had her first post-surgery ultrasound scan of her kidneys today. She is required to have an ultrasound scan every 6 monthly for the first 2 years after the surgery and thereafter once a year until she turns 12 years old! What a loooooong time! She is also required to have a DMSA scan of…
Guess what this is? It’s the gals’ play tunnel, folded and buttoned up. And guess what Alycia loves doing with it? More guesses. Guess what’s inside this tunnel, which looks like the shell of a snail? One afternoon, Alycia napped inside this little cocoon… and Baby found her jie jie inside…. … and kept calling…
Rascal #3 is getting cheekier by the day. These days, she loves ‘finger pointing’ and ‘tai chee’ all her boo boos and naughty acts to her jie jies. Whenever we ask “who did this”, “who broke this”, “who drew this”, “who gave you this?”, “who is the naughty girl?”, etc. Baby will conveniently say “cheh…
On a typical day, this is what my little cili padi & samseng will do : Hog the TV-DVD player remote control and Astro remote control and start pressing all the buttons, disrupting our programs and sometimes switches Astro to a strange screen which I don’t even know how to undo… …she will press the on-off button of the…
“NO, don’t climb, come down, I’ll cane you, I’ll beat you, I’ll throw you away, don’t jump, don’t touch, come here, etc…” …. These are the words that I say dunno how many umpteen times now each day to stop rascal #3 from performing her daredevil stunts. But nothing seems to be able to stop…
This is what I would normally do when #3 turns crabby when she’s up from her afternoon nap and #1 doesn’t want to get up from her nap: I’ll carry #3 to her jie jie’s bed and the reaction is almost magical. I would see smiles and hear giggling instantly. No fussing, no fretting, no temper…
Last week someone bought the playpen that I had earlier advertised in my blog. Before we collapsed the playpen, we told Baby that we will be giving the playpen away. Baby seemed to understand what we were telling her and she was happy! Hubs then placed her inside the playpen for the last time and…
… this is what transpires at home: Baby will play with the house phone. We used to have a cordless phone but Baby kept playing and throwing it and it’s now spoilt. The cordless phone has since been replaced with our old non cordless phone. “Alo, alo, alo, dadee…..” Baby follows her samseng jie jie…
