Posted on November 20, 2008 by Shireen

I started Baby C on solids about a week ago. Her first ever taste of solids was some organic ground brown rice for babies that my sil bought from Hong Kong. I mixed it with some lotus root soup and she loved it. Baby C smiling away after tasting her first spoonful of rice cereal…

Monkeying Baby C

Posted on November 19, 2008 by Shireen

Alycia who adores Baby C loves to monkey her around by putting caps, hats, toy sunglasses and other silly items on her baby sister. Here, she put a Minnie Mouse cap on baby and insisted that I snapped a picture of them together. We spent more than 6 hours at SJMC today. First we brought…

Almost The Whole Day Spent At The Hospital

Posted on November 16, 2008 by Shireen

I spent almost the whole day at the hospital with Baby C and my maid today. We reached the hospital at 10am for the antibiotics drip. We were told by the doctor to collect baby’s pee for another urine culture to see if the WBCs have dropped. That’s because no sensitivity test has been done…

Terrible Accident

Baby C turned 7 months old on 9 November 2008. She started to cruise 1.5 weeks ago by holding on to the crib railing or the sides of the playpen. I think she will most likely start to walk at 8 months. She has not been able to crawl much lately as we have been…

Baby C A-Ok But Has A ‘Bungalow’ Behind Her Head

Posted on November 2, 2008 by Shireen

After the Humpty Dumpty fall yesterday, Baby C was fine. No more vomiting, no altered mental status, no blurred vission, still as active and drinking her milk as usual. But there was quite a bump on the back of her head 🙁 Was very whiny and wanted to be carried for the rest of the…

When All Else Fails To Wake Her Up….

Posted on October 29, 2008October 29, 2008 by Shireen

Whenever I have problems waking Alycia up from her sleep in the morning or in the afternoon from her nap, I don’t have to drag her up or use threats or bribes anymore. I used to have a real hard time getting Alycia to wake up on some days but not anymore now. All I…

Posted on October 24, 2008October 25, 2008 by Shireen

That’s me doing some physical stimulation exercises with Baby C on my fitball. I started this exercise with her 2 days ago. The first time I placed her on the ball, held her legs and moved her backwards, she cried a little. I then carried her up and gave her a big hug and comforted…

My samseng Baby C loves attempting to do somersaults whenever she’s placed in her crib or on her cheh cheh’s queen sized mattress.

No Mood

Posted on October 20, 2008 by Shireen

I have no mood to blog, no mood for anything, for my mind is just on Baby C. I think she has another UTI attack…. Will be bringing her to see our pediatric nephrologist today for her pee to be collected via catheterization, for a urine culture. Please pray that all will go well for…

The experts say that a good physical program is vital for the development of the baby’s brain. Last night I did a little physical stimulation exercise with Baby C, which she always seems to enjoy. She’s another samseng, just like her 2 cheh cheh when they were her age. First, I let her crawl on cheh…

My Daily Diaper-Changing Battle

Posted on October 16, 2008 by Shireen

My battle with Baby C each time I change her diaper started 2 weeks ago. I had this battle with Alycia and Sher too when they were Baby C’s age. Changing their diaper was such a great challenge that I needed my maids’ help whenever I needed to change their diapers. Now, I need at least…

Baby C Wants New Toys All The Time!

Posted on October 13, 2008October 13, 2008 by Shireen

I can hardly have my meals in peace since Baby C turned 3 months old as she wants to be carried ALL the time. My mistake…. I’ve carried her too much from the beginning. In fact, everyone in the family is spoiling her because no one can bear to hear her cry. The moment she fusses, she will…
