Hi Frenz... News update on Somer..
No he is not out yet.. Contractions hit me this morning abt 6++am... Tots of him coming out made me had a little prayer in my heart tat he will be out soon, but he played prank on me again.. Haiz...
Guess induce will be the onli choice left for me now.. Earliest induce date is tml, 31st Oct 2008... Latest 3rd November 2008...
Haiz.. This pregnancy is a torture..
1st, i guess i got this pubic symphosis.. I got to noe this when i was reading the latest edition of Motherhood Magazine yesterday. Same symptoms.. Now tossing and turning to the side(both left and right), is torturing.. Coz my pubic bone will somehow be like having a big big pressure on top of it causing extreme pain.. This pain will den make me not being able to slp properly.. Even carrying Jayden for too long will cause pressure to it, making me pain... Haiz.. How i wish my beauty slp can be back asap... i am tired....
Tired....

As per requested by Yanting mummy.. Here it goes..
Let me clarify this, Jayden is a late baby.. Born 40 wks 2 days.. Yes.. 2 days late.. His EDD is supposed to be 25th September 2006, but dragged on 2 more days before i induced him out to see this world.. Grr.. Nottie baby! 25th September 2006, Monday
This lil' fellow chose to stay in the comfortable tummy of my, not wanting to come out.. Haiz.. Nottie fellow.. Trust me to take 2 wks in advance leave to await for your arrival.. Mummy called to ask me to induce him out since he is late and also tell me that Mei Feng jie jie(my cousin)'s fren, in the past had given birth to a baby who is late and inside the mummy's tummy eating his own shit.. This scares me.. Discussed with hubby and decision made! Induce!
26th September 2006, Tuesday
Appt with Dr Yeap, all fine.. healthy and good.. Dilated 1cm.. Argh!! Dr Yeap asked wad is my decision since he is alreadi late.. Told Dr Yeap, induce.. Ok.. Den was told to admit into hospital the next day at 8am, proceed to admission counter to do up the paper works... After tat, went home and koon, get prepared for the veri veri big day...
27th September 2006, Wednesday (the
BIG day)
Woke up 6+ to 7am? Forgot le.. Den went to bathe and do the necessary things.. End up oso late.. Lolx..FIL drove us there. Reached hospital abt 8++am... (not forgetting, since this is our 1st time as parents, we OVER-packed the hospital bags...). By the time the admission paper works..etc are done, alreadi like 9++am? Hehe... Went up to room, and had to get changed into their hospital clothes.. B1 leh... lolx.. A lady came in and asked me what i want for lunch and dinner.. Lolx... So happi.. Forgot wad i ordered but eventually onli had lunch..
Waited and waited and waited for the nurse to come and admit me into the delivery suite.. No one come leh.. End up den noe is coz the delivery suite too mani ppl lar.. Wait lor... Waited until 4++pm to 5+pm den admit into delivery suite...
Once in there, changed into the barebacked dress.. so cold... brrrr.... Put on drip and stripped to the CTG... All i can do it lie and the bed, bear with the pain and wait... AGAIN.... Forgot abt wad time, another doc came in and broke my water bag.. Feels like a gush of urine... lolx... The pain is here to start...
Initially dilated abt 4cm.. Den the bloody old MISSY keep there, "Take epidural lar, you youngster cannot tahan pain one lar... Use epidural lar..." Keep there walking in and out of the room and saying... Irritating... Dun wan use means dun wan use.. I die of pain oso dun wan use! I rather use the gas.. thou of not much use.. Still i made it lor!
Den when i dilate abt 7cm, i got the urge to push le.. Another nurse ask is it that i wanna poo poo.. I sae no no.. i wanna push le! i wanna push le! Den she sae ok ok.. Call doc come... I think one of the malay nurse cut me.. Keep feeling that she push the flesh of there there leh.. Cannot blame.. Jayden head too big lar.. Cannot seem to be able to push him out..
abt 11+pm, Dr Yeap came..(in her home clothes and she said,"juz nice i finish giving my kids spelling" -.-!!!).. Tried pushing Jayden out but head too big lar.. he dun wan come out.. End up, Dr Yeap said to use forcep to get his head out 1st.. Of coz i agree lor.. Wanna pain until i die le, all i wan is to faster get him out!Abt 11.01pm - 11.02pm, 2nd last push, head out with the help of forcep.. Last push, the body came out.. Phew! Finally all out... Time announcement, 11.03pm!
Dr Yeap proceed with the cutting of umbilical cord(hubby had a cut of it, 剪彩！ lolx), drawing of cord blood, stiching me, while the nurse clean Jayden up, weigh(3326g) him and measure his head circumference(34cm) and height(49cm).. Hubby claimed tat he pooed immediately he is placed on the warmer(is it called tat??)... Aiya.. i too tired to bother abt anything..
Dr Yeap said one thing which made me remember till now and i will insist on for Baby Somer... She said,"Go tell all your frenz that you nv used any epidural!" Lolx.. I will still insist on for this delivery..
Oh well, till today, Jayden is loved by mani mani mani... Thou he is mischevious, hyper active and sometimes grumpy.. Yet, we still love him mani mani!
Please forgive me if you think Jayden's birth story is not veri detail.. I've forgotten mani mani parts of it since it is like 2 yrs ago matter... Pardon me hor..

I am back.....
With lotsa anger......
i hate him to the core.......
bowling and ot fill his life.... how abt me and Jayden and the upcoming baby???
Contractions, leg pain, swollen ankle, infections fill my nights.... Anyone know??
Guess not....
Tears accompany me thru my sleeps, but he doesn't noe...
Sometimes i wish he is there to help, but he is not.....
I'm tired.....
Below is to Suzhen mummy... Hope my ans can help you to ur qns:
1) Jayden keep falling asleep when feeding him formula milk causing him to only drink around 30ml to 40ml of milk when he normally can drink up to 60ml..
Ans: It is normal for newborn babies to fall aslp during feed.. one way is to tickle him to wake up.. His chin, his face...etc.. Perhaps not the sole of the feet coz old folks says tat tickling boy's sole will coz them to be veri fearful of heights in future... Another way is to shake his bottle a little or turn the bottle bit by bit.. Dun panic.. Slowly try out ways by trial and error...
2) He sleeps lesser and lesser.. How many hours should he sleep when he is only 12days old??
Ans: Comes to slp i cannot help you.. Baby are still new to the environment.. Probably, when he is awake, talk to him.. Educate him or probably show him to the surrounding.. Thou they cannot see clearly yet, they can still hear wad u are saying...
3) His tummy is so big.. I think is alot of air?? Is it he cry to much?? My husband says is cause he sleep too much but i didn't heard of such logic.. Some more he sleeps for like 12hours a day..
Ans: Did you burp him after every feed? Some old folks (like my MIL), claims tat baby's tummy shouldn't be exposed as air will go in... If you fear this, you can get ur mum or dad or ur sibling, go kiddy palace or neighbourhood shop, buy those belly binder, wrap ard his tummy... This is one way... Another way is apply ru yi you... Ru yi you helps to expel wind..
And, did he poo poo everyday, try to let him have a habit of poo poo everyday since formula milk(FM) will coz constipation.. oh! before i forget this, you can try woodgripe water.. Some call it fei zai shui... Those in glass bottle... 1/2 teaspoon will do... Worse come to worse, go pharmacy buy those medicine for colic... 1 - 2 drop(instructions found on the box) into the FM will help..
4) He keeps crying and crying sometimes for dunno y..
Ans: Babies cry for a reason.. Poo poo, pee pee, hungry, sleepy...etc... Now is the time for you to differentiate wad each cry means... Everytime he cry, check ur clock to see if it is time for his milk feed... If it is not, den probably is poo poo or pee pee... If all not, den could be stomach pain pain... I think Mt A. do provide classes to teach parents how to help baby massage.. Go learn and get hang of it... baby massagehelps baby to relax and also relieve wind(applies to qns 3).. At the same time, helps bonding of mummy and baby.. If ever your MIL say he will catch cold by stripping him down till his pampers and do the massage, crap!! This is one great way to show u love your baby!! 5) How do i know if baby is feeling cold or hot??
Ans: i believe some old folks like ur MIL will wrap new born will dumpling like tat .. Same applies to my mum and my MIL but eventually Jayden kick them away, leaving behind his hands and legs exposed.. lolx... In the day, 2 yrs back, my mil will bathe him den let him wear short sleeved tops and shorts den wrap him up in cloth diapers(clean one lar)... Den at nite, he will be in long sleeve and long pants, again wrap in cloth diapers again.. But usually you will see his legs and hands appearing outside the cloth diapers... slowly as weeks past, by afternoon, you will see onli his tummy area is wrapped lar... lolx... But mittens and booties will be worn to prevent his nails scratching his face...
Wrapping a new born is believed to prevent the babies to be duo shou duo jiao... To me, jayden oso now veri duo shou duo jiao.. no diff... This kinda theory is the same as cannot eat crab during pregnancy( i eat like no body biz.. lolx)... So believe it anot is up to individual...
Hope my ans help you!! Oh! Mother & baby magazine and Motherhood magazine give you info which you might find it helpful, grab them at any newstand, subscribe to them to let you understand ur baby and u better.. Jia you oh!
