Changing Pattern

Totally exhausted.
yx likes us to carry her upright or koala bear style instead of cradle style except when she is super tired.
And she sleeps lesser hours in the afternoon.
I will have to tweak her schedule again. =(

Baby's very First Touchy Feely Book

Thanks to my future sister-in-law from UK,

Pressie from cat

But after about 2 weeks of reading, yx kindda grew tired of it. Not sure if she fully understood the contents, but I know she was fascinated with the bright colours when we first showed her. 

EBM progress in March

7/3, 8:30 am: 260 ml 

10/3, 1:00 pm: 60 ml

I can produce more than 200 ml only in the morning, ie. my first pump of the day, else I can only produce maximum 150 ml per session (2 breasts combined).

On one hand I hope I can produce more, on the other, I just hope my breast milk supply will deplete so that I don't need to pump and experience the feeling of engorgement anymore. so contradicting. =\

I also feel like sleeping when I see her sleep ...... ZZzz

After-Jab II

Since yesterday, we have been monitoring her after her immunisation jab (5-in-1 1st dose + Hepatitis B 2nd dose + Pneumococcal 1st dose) and seems like her body took it quite well. So far, no fever so should be ok ......

And then she pooed in the afternoon.

So as per previous post:

1. 16/2 - Visit to PD
2. 21/2 - pooed x1 (diff of 5 days)
3. 24/2 - pooed x2 (diff of 2 days)
4. 26/2 - pooed x2 (diff of 2 days)
5. 2/3 - pooed x2 (diff of 5 days)
6. 4/3 - pooed x 2  (diff of 2 days)
7. 6/3 - my forecast  NO !
8. 7/3 - my next forecast NO !
9. 8/3 - pooed x1 -- So what now ? Reset pattern as per (2) ?

Anyway, just record and monitor.

After-Jab Look

Thank goodness, she cried for a while and simmered down almost immediately after some coaxing and over-the-top encouragement. As the timing also coincide with her afternoon nap, she was so sleepy that she dozed off soon after. Phew!

Please don't disturb me, I want to sleep!

Colic !!!!!!

When yx hasn't pooed on the fourth day after her last poo day (26/2) , I began to feel something might be coming along. The fact that she hasn't been very smiley during her play time makes me uneasy.

But if I were to calculate based on the last PD visit:

1. 16/2 - Visit to PD
2. 21/2 - pooed x1 (diff of 5 days)
3. 24/2 - pooed x2 (diff of 2 days)
4. 26/2 - pooed x2 (diff of 2 days)
5. ???

My forecast for her to poo is on 28/2. Given that the range is 2-5 days, I waited. So on 1/3 morning, I gave her Dentinox as she was fidgeting the whole night on 29/2 - no loud crying but just kicking around the cot. On 2/3, she cried for no reason and fuss more often, and finally pooed twice in the afternoon. On 3/3, she cried even more for no reason, which is super unusual. So I gave her Dentinox which seemed to soothe her, make her farted but didn't poo. Finally, on 4/3, she did.

1. 16/2 - Visit to PD
2. 21/2 - pooed x1 (diff of 5 days)
3. 24/2 - pooed x2 (diff of 2 days)
4. 26/2 - pooed x2 (diff of 2 days)
5. 2/3 - pooed x2 (diff of 5 days)
6. 4/3 - pooed x 2  (diff of 2 days)
7. 6/3 - my forecast

I thought she will poo today but no.

And tomorrow is her jab day.

  

Urgh. I think there goes my sleep again. Good luck to us.

Is snoring considered white noise?

Urgh. I think perhaps babies wouldn't mind hearing?

cos she slept throughout her afternoon nap with daddy today.

knor knor knor ......

I hope her husband don't snore like daddy next time. ={

Maternity Leave Ending soon

My maternity is going to end in about a month's time.
I dread the thought of going back to work cos I know I will miss yx.
So far, my mum can cope with her, hopefully everything goes well.

Post Natal Massage Review

Yes,  I am really S-L-O-W.

I bet everyone has completed her post natal massage, I just completed it in 2nd week of Feb. I managed to silm down from 57 to 54 kg but my tummy is still quite flabby and bulgy like 5 months preggy? Although breastfeeding also helps in slimming, mine would take longer since I can't really exercise or exert too much due to my c-sect wound. I think I have to wait for another 3 more months before I can go for pilates or yoga.

Details:
Who: Therapist from Traditional & Holistic Post-Natal Centre
Duration: 7 days, 1 hr 15 mins per session
Charges: SGD 530 for 7 Sessions

=)

1. Extend massage for another 15 mins sometimes, not rushed.
2. Patient lady who understand your concerns and gives you advice accordingly.

=(

1. Application for Pilis is quite diluted and little.
2. Only 1 big hot stone (multiple hot stones would be better).

Professional yet certain areas she sometimes tend to 偷工减料 if she thinks you don't need it ? Pressure and techniques are good, can be better.
