Chicken Pox Or What?

A few kids were down with chicken pox in Alycia and Sher’s pre-school last week. This afternoon, I discovered several red spots on Sher’s body (front and back of her body). They looked like some insect bites but at a closer look, there appears to be a little water inside the dots. In fact, I…

Cassandra Finally Pooed But…

it wasn’t ‘explosive’, considering she hadn’t pooed for 3 days and she pooed at around 8pm yesterday.  When I saw her poop in her diaper, it was the most pleasing sight for me in the longest time.  I cheered and clapped and my 2 older gals followed suit.  Everyone was so happy that our little darling had…

Alycia’s Interest In Ballet

I am still thinking if I should continue sending Alycia for ballet classes. After almost 5 months into learning ballet, she now tells me that she does not want to attend her ballet class anymore. I don’t know if she really dislikes ballet or she doesn’t like it that I can’t accompany her to her…

Baby C Can’t Poo

for 2 days already and I am worried sick coz my baby has always been a good ‘pooper’ since birth and has never had problems with emptying her bowels.  I hope the built up poop inside her body will not aggravate her kidney reflux and cause another UTI.  If she still can’t poo poo by tomorrow,…

Under The Weather

It’s a bad month. First Alycia was down with throat infection, next was Sherilyn. A week later, Sherilyn developed phlegm and cough and days later, the bug bit me too and I have been feeling under the weather for 2 days already. Yesterday, I felt so unwell – I had stuffy nose, kept sneezing, my…

Cassandra At 3 Months 1 Week

Cassandra has discovered a new feat 2 weeks ago, that’s putting her hands together. Whenever she’s awake, she’ll put her hands together or clasp them. Most times, she will put both her fists into her mouth and suck them…. and then she will give me a scare when she chokes on them and almost pukes. She’s becoming…

My Sunday

Today I had a Sunday filled with activities.  I got up at 7am and quickly took my bath, checked my email and fixed milk for Alycia and Sherilyn.  My mil went to the market and brought our maid along.  It’s always tough when I don’t have someone helping me with the 3 girls in the…

Baby C Proudly On Her Tummy

At 3 months, 1 week, my baby can finally push her arms up and raise her head while on her tummy. For the past one week, she’s been trying hard to flip over and when she’s stuck on her side, she will yell out loud, making sounds like an angry cat, on the verge of…

Precious Poop

Baby C has not poo pooed today, making today the 3rd day of her not emptying her bowels and I am worried sick. I would not say that it is constipation as she did not strain herself in her effort to poo poo. I have been feeding her with plain water and massaging her tummy since…

My Saturday

I had a good Saturday morning with my 3 gals. I had wanted to get up at 7am to go jogging alone but had forgotten to set my alarm clock and overslept. Alycia and Sherilyn woke up shortly after me and I quickly fixed them milk, brushed their teeth and got them ready so that…

Millenium Cactus Juice

I finally bought a pack of E. Excel Millenium Cactus Juice to try from my former classmate, after much pondering.  After hearing all the goodness and praises for this very costly infection-fighting concoction of juices, I decided I want to give it a try – to my 2 older girls (esp. Alycia) who are always down with throat infection. I…

Outdoor Entertaining Ideas

Lately hubby has been really busy with his catering business. He is so busy he hardly has the time to come home for dinner on most days. Sometimes I feel like a single parent who has to mind my 3 kids myself most of the time. Well, I shouldn’t complain. It’s good that he is…

Baby C Has Grade 3 Kidney Reflux

The hospital called this afternoon. The nurse conveyed to me the report, which states that Baby C has kidney reflux or VUR grade 3. I had expected it to be grade 3, and thankfully it is not grade 4 or 5. The hospital has also given us a nearer appointment date, which is in 2…

Online Drug Reference

When Baby C was prescribed with Trimethoprim, an antibiotics to prevent Urinary Tract Infection a month ago, I did a Google search to find out more about this drug. I was really worried of the side effects it would have on Baby C as she has to consume this drug for several years due to…

The Amazing iPhone 3G

I was browsing the section on technology in today’s newspapers and read about iPhones. Reading about the new Apple iPhone 3G, I am just so tempted to buy one too. Firstly, the prices of iPhones have dropped significantly recently, making it a very affordable toy to own. Secondly, the speed of 3G is twice as…
