For these two days, BB Seth has been puking after burping. Yesterday, was puked and his clothe was soiled. Today, he puked onto me and so soiled. He wailed and refused to let me put him down but I so stink till I can't tahan, how to not place him down on changing mat and I get out of my soiled Tees? So is burping good or bad? Burped already and he puked. So it means his stomach is so full of milk. I am suppose to do out a timeline for BB Seth, eg. when he starts to suck thumb, when he starts his first smile...but I am lagging lei. He's progress is fast and I have not thought of how to do a very nice timeline to log all these little actions in. Picture of the day, Tomorrow's my best friend's wedding. I have a lousy hair cut and suppose to look "glam" for dinner! I really have no bloody idea how my hair should be styled!?! Oh, God, give me a tinkle of creativity please!!! I shall take lotsa pictures and will keep them posted here.

Woke up in the morning feeling so lethargic. Again, aching, feeling cold. Seems like never ending of feverish symptoms. Apparently having the symptoms almost once a month. Really dislike the feeling. Olive Tree went to work today. Yesterday, he took Childcare leave as BB Seth seems a bit blocked nose. Then today, it became my turn to be unwell. He said if there's anything urgent call him...ya... but he working lei... Was so aching and feeling cold throughout the day, still have to take care of BB Seth. I have lost some appetite. But forced myself to eat something. BB Seth was not sleeping long in the morning, so I have to entertained him, at the same time, weak me, prayed for healing. Finally, BB Seth slept and I slept with him. After my nursing, I popped one panadol and slept. Thank God, my prayer answered. BB Seth slept so soundly for 3 hrs at least and in between sleep, he was nursed and practically emptied my left breast. I woke up feeling hot and the feverish symptoms gone. AM...

suppose to post online...but after viewing photos of BB Seth taken by my friend, Charms Teo , I was doing the saving, uploading etc....hiaz... Tired already... Go here to check out the photos. Just bf BB Seth and I really need to hit the sack to catch my beauty sleep.

Talking about eyes, I've had a swollen right eye bag. Olive Tree said it's too heaty. Maybe grow "Bak Cham". If it's "Bak Cham", praying to the Lord to get it healed....as I am going to attend my best friend's wedding this coming Saturday!!! Don't wanna go with a swollen eye that's too ugly to be seen! Anyway, even with swollen eye bag, we went out nonetheless. Got our Jazz 's tires changed. Costly ah, SGD148 each. But for the safety sake, it's high time we change the tires. Didn't really went for long shopping. Just dropped by J8 to get a peristaltic teat for BB Seth. Then we head to his parent's place to visit. BB Seth was cranky...he was so sleepy but just couldn't be pacified by tapping, breast feeding to sleep...end up, we went home early again. So we agreed to go back Olive Tree's parents' place to visit tomorrow morning as it might be a better time so that BB Seth not cranky. Took some shots on the FX8 , Jus...

He really makes us laugh and smile every single day. His daddy always kisses him before he goes to work. Comes home, saying "my darling son". Aiyo, who will not get jealous?! We have completed the "BB on Board" Project. I pride myself in using the Graphic Converter so well. I did not attend any tutorials but figuring out myself how to edit the pictures, add text, effects. It is really a graphical software comparable with Adobe Photoshop. Best of all it comes as a bundle with Apple PB!! Hee.... So when you see our car, you'll see BB Seth's "BB On Board" Project behind our car. Keep a look out!

Was doing some files renaming on my PB, then I can't find my workflows to run, I was puzzled. So I thought maybe my PB needs restart. After restarting, I login, and oh my gosh!! My settings were all gone, bookmarks in Safari gone, everything la! I nearly died man!! I tell you. The face went green! Frantically, I seeked MUGS helped when i managed to reconnect back to the internet wirelessly. Before I have any reply from the helpful forum, I was browsing my PB's folder. Thinking this time I have to redo all the stuffs liao. Painstakingly..... I came upon the Users folders. Found a folder named, sling-01. I was puzzled, it was a name I have rename for one of my picture. I clicked on it, saw all my folders in it! My heart skipped a beat, I copied the entire content of the folder and paste it back to my user's name folder. I restarted the PB, and prayed!! HEE... Viola! I saw my fav desktop picture and my whole body relaxed! Thank God, I manage to chance upon the folder that go...

Don't know why BB Seth get startled a few times tonight in his sleep. He seems to not able to sleep very well and wakes up suddenly. Also, cried so loudly as if had a nightmare. (" Prayed to the Lord's for BB Seth goodnight's sleep, every night. Pretty tired today, though have many things to write down but my brain and fingers are so bloody breakdown. Post a picture of us for you guys to see. I love it!!

Nothing like having my mom staying at my place. Hee...cause I can get to eat good food, from a good cook! What kind of daughter am I?? Gluttony type! Ok, having slight flu, the starting symptoms of flu. So I went on to M4M forum to ask the breastfeeding mommies if I can take FEBS or Panadols to self medicate since I am breastfeeding now. Also, I super kiasu, took Vit C tablet, fruits, lots of water and "Kor Chao" Bitter leaves to take my sore throat away and get my immune system up and fighting against the bug. Hee...that's the extreme a mommy can do so that I am ok, breast milk supply good for darling BB Seth. Also not forgetting, must know that Jesus is the HEALER and I pray! BB Seth has grown so much. Here's an interesting picture of Seth I took on National Day. I mmsed this picture to Jack, telling him that Seth's godsis has not been visiting Seth for so long, is it wait till Seth's 1 year old birthday then come.....haa.... I have 2 things in mind to get...

Mom has gone home as she needs to do prayers for the lunar end month...(more important than spending time with BB Seth and me??) Anyway, she has been so wonderful towards us for the passed 1 month plus, so I should not complain at all. It was waking up at 6.50am, showered and get ready to express my milk. So that when Olive Tree and mom goes out, I have more time to take care of BB Seth, prepare his bath, feeding. I manage to accomplish pretty much today. Tasks accomplished 1. Expressed 5oz breastmilk. 2. Cooked my own lunch. 3. Do the laundry. Not bad already. Single handledly do all the above. Oh, let me share what I've cooked for lunch, My Fish Porridge Lunch While BB Seth is sleeping soundly in rocker, I quickly prepared my lunch, and snack. Thank God, my mom sliced the fish yesterday and its ready for me to just drop them into my fish porridge. So, this is where I put BB Seth into when I do my chores and lunch. Glad that the day has passed and Olive Tree is coming home soo...

Talking about how a daddy will behave and react when it comes to handling baby. This is what Olive Tree always say to me: WHY!! It's really what others said, when you have given birth, treatment of EMPRESS DOWAGER is gone and you are banish to cold palace. When required to please the Emperor, or Crown Prince needed you, you will then be summon to do the tasks. Just now, trying to get BB Seth to sleep, as I had a stiff neck situation and had kinda sprain my right hand, I was thinking with the new sling skills I've acquired, putting BB Seth in the sling, would help. This is because BB Seth sleeps well in Sling and I do not have to always pat him and carry him with my hands. Olive Tree has issue and "told" me off that I should not make it a habit. He said that now I am not working, it's ok but what if I work, how? I retorted said now I am not working is the best time to practice so that in future, BB Seth would get to sleep so much easier and earlier without a fuss....

Read kenny sia's blog and stumble upon this interesting Face Analyzer thingy. Gave it a try and here is the result: What is Alpha Artist? Hope you can read this though print is small. & who is Jamie Pressly?? I've got know idea, man!! All I know she is a hot babe! (",) Earning big income too! This is a more seductive look of her. I think I'll stick to my intelligence....hee...

Again, just manage to make BB seth to sleep. He is so darn tired. Why? Because he has not really sleep a wink today. He slept half an hour, woke up. Breast-fed him, and then never sleep. The pattern goes on and on since 11am till now. He sure is "difficult" today. Hiaz. He was "reprimanded" by me just now. As I breast-fed him, he will be so tired and doze off, thus "puut" out my nipple. When he realised my nipple not in his mouth all of a sudden, he would cry in dissatisfaction. Aiyo. We dingdong many times of this today that I can't take it, and told him off! (" Am I a bad mommy? Kind of. Since so young, I reprimanded him. Not in a fantastic mood too, as Olive Tree going to come home late, and Jon, so last minute, said he can't pick mom up to send her home, therefore, mom has to take the train back home! What the heck la. That is to say, mom going back early, I'll be home alone. I don't mind the home alone but I miss my mom being aro...

Scratch and scratch my head....it seems never enough rest for Olive Tree. I can't fathom why. I have told him before that he requires at least 9 hours of sleep so that he will not be so blur sotong. He still argued with me that he only sleeps less than 7 hours a day. Ok, so I've tried and tested. Last night, I was the one that pat BB Seth to sleep, and when the feeding time comes, I took BB Seth out from rocker and breast-fed him. Never a time I woke Olive Tree up. He was sleeping throughout. He slept soundly. I changed the diapers. Olive Tree woke up at around 5.30am, to see me breast-fed BB Seth and then he went back to take a nap before he actually woke up at 7am to prepare to go to work. Since he started to sleep around 11pm last night, let's say that is the latest, normally he sleeps at 10pm, he would have clocked 8 hours of sleep. That's the sufficient sleep an adult can get. I read a report before, that as you grow older, you tend to sleep lesser. Not very true ...

He was small when I first see him As I hold him for the first time in my hands I have nothing on my mind but just to protect him with my life He is going to be my precious little guy He is going to be fed at my bosom for as long as God bless mine I would watch his sparkling eyes move with motion I would touch his little hands with all my love Watching him grows everyday how his face and built has change Knowing that he is growing so well, with Jesus's love and care Seeing him developing his personality even at such a tender age It's real amazement how our Daddy gives us a wonderful child My Blessed Champion, Seth Benjamin Goh our priceless gift from Daddy GOD

Feeling pretty excited about this morning as it's BB Seth's 1st Jab, which we are to witness. Though he has taken jab in the hospital, this would be the very 1st time we are sending him to the pediatrician for his jab. It seems that our little prince knows today is his outing day, he woke up at 0715hrs for his feed and was awake, getting ready for his daily royal bath, (he usually bath around 0930-1000hrs). So it was really a blessing that we get to clean him up for his outing day. By the time we are all ready to go out, it was already 15 minutes to 0900hrs, which suppose to be our appointment with the pediatrician. We were caught in a jam along CTE, nothing new, as the morning traffic along CTE is always so packed, be it weekdays or weekends. Today was my gynae's appointment at ACJ Clinic too. We've bought cakes for Dr Adrian, the other 2 pretty gynaes and the nurses in the clinic. Hope they like the small token. We expected crowds at the Pediatrician and ACJ Clinic, s...

This past 2 weeks have been very rainy. Weather as such, to me, is very good!! As I am doing my confinement, so at least it's not so super duper hot in the afternoons and I can nap well with BB Seth without sweating so much. Today marks the last day of my confinement!! Hooray!! Honestly I don't totally drag the confinement period. I enjoyed having my mom around and her cooking. I don't know how I can cope if she is going back. Taking care of BB Seth is ok, just that I am very emotional type. So if my mom goes home, I would be so darn emotional that I would cry. Funny right? Majority of my friends told me, "good luck for your confinement, I sympathize you while you are in confinement." But it isn't that bad after all when I've been through. Sunday, 17th July, was Seth's Full Month Celebration. Expected 120 guests. But end up only 90 guests came! I wasn't very pleased. Basically Olive Tree and I have planned to just invite very close friends and rel...

It's so fragile, our feelings, our thoughts. Handling a baby is not an easy feat. Baby pose you surprises everyday. Sometimes, they make you laugh with joy, make you angry with a tingling of smiles, make you cry when you don't know what you do, can really pacify them. Today, my BB Seth, has some temperament. He was bathed and as usual, put in the rocker to enjoy his stretching moments. Normally, he would feel tired at about 10 plus, so I would pat him to sleep and he will sleep till 12-1pm, for his next feed. However, today, he wasn't going to sleep. He was tired, could judge by his yawning. I pat him, soothe him, but nothing pleases him. End up, I gave him the pacifier. He took it pretty well. He was about to doze off, I plucked out the pacifier, he woke up crying! Hiaz! I really don't know if this helps. But if he continues to be so, pacifier not in his mouth, he wakes up crying, future we are going to have a tough time getting him to sleep. So, mom took over BB Seth....

Today marks the 3rd week since BB Seth was born. It was a tremendous experience to have seen my little darling grows. Each day, he seems to be changing, in appearance, size....ha! Is it my imagination?! Guess not. Nobody better know her little baby then mummy herself, right? Really praises to our Sweet Daddy in heaven, for all his blessings. Olive Tree and my prayers are answered, as our BB Seth grows well, weans well and he is so handsome. When we talked to BB Seth, he would be looking at you, seemingly, knowing what you are saying. He loves to listen. BB Seth has another cute expression. Whenever he stretches himself, he would make those loud "urrgh, ehhh" sound. My Olive Tree said that it sounded like the little piggy he used to have in the kampong days. HA!! I have to admit BB Seth is very vocal, despite his young age. This weekend, we'll be celebrating his full month. We have invited guests of 110! Amazing! We don't know how the crowd is going to squeeze into ou...

Our Blessed BB Seth Benjamin Goh's EDD Ticker Seeing the Ultrasound Scan of Seth Benjamin Goh 7.15am Woke up, feeling cramps in lower adomen. Think it's time!! (">) Kinda expected something to happen this morning. Woke up Olive Tree, telling him to get ready. He was excited. But I ask him don't have to rush. Still have time. So Olive Tree bathed first, feed the dog and the fish. I took my own sweet time to have a clean bath. Who knows when I would be able to clean myself up again, right? Took our breakfast, and said our daily prayers and blessings from our Sweet Daddy. (">) 9.00am Reached ACJ Clinic. The nurses were so sweet, they asked me if the contractions were intense yet, I said ok, as I don't feel that uncomfortable. So they said I might not deliver on 21st June. But I said I don't want to wait any longer, today shall be the day we will see our darling BB Seth! So while waiting for Dr. Adrian Tan to arrive in clinic, the nurses were shari...

It's EDD! Woke up in the morning and called my gynae's clinic to reschedule my afternoon appointment to morning. We reached clinic at 11am, there was quite a number of patients waiting. Manage to see Adrian, my gynae at 12pm. Adrian did a cervix check for me, he said he would not encourage medical induce, especially that I had my surgery when removing my fibroids in 2003. There are some concerns like higher percentage of rupture of surgery scar, lower chance of natural birth. Likewise, I would want my birthing be as natural as possible. He said instead, he would do a membrane sweep on my womb wall. That's a way of natural induction. Wow! the feeling after the membrane sweep, is pretty overwhelming. Feel like a virgin,after the little procedure. (",) Started some contractions, after that. Adrian said, get ready for the next 48 hours to birth Seth. (">) Can see Olive Tree longing look. HA! We have so many concern friends and prayer warriors to pray for us, and we...
