I’ve been working from home in the mornings for the past 3 days. Sidetrack, I think it’s a good idea to start work on Wednesdays; no Monday blues, and before you know it, the weekend’s here again! Anyway, it has been great & I love the time I have with Adam in the mornings. But [...]

My happy ending
HR called me at the 11h hour to tell me the news I’ve been wanting to hear for the past 1 month.
My application to work from home in the mornings, 4 days a week, has been approved, alhamdulillah!
I start tomorrow.
What have I done to deserve this? Things fall into place & I got more than [...]

And the prize goes to…
N/U/K !
Can you hear my huge sigh of relief?
Feeding him the bottle was toughest on Friday. He cried less on Saturday & had 2 feeds. On Sunday, he managed to get another 2 feeds on the N/U/K teats, and this morning, he managed to finish about 60 ml on the N/U/K teats again. Phew!
So N/U/K [...]

Teat-hunt
I’m going back to work next week.
This also means, Adam can’t latch onto me when I’m at work. It’s time for bottle-feeding.
Adam suckled on Avent teats pretty well when he was a newborn – I used to express milk & get my mom to feed him. He suckled well on them 3 weeks ago too, so I thought [...]

Before & after
Before the jab…
After the jab….
Apasal muka shedih, beb?
But we’re so proud of Adam! We were preparing ourselves for the yeowwwww!!! cry but alhamdulillah, all he did was let out a stunned cry, then OK already in less than a minute! Hooray for our hero!
Paedi M also said that Adam’s growing well, alhamdulillah. At 3 mths [...]

My little grabber
The loveliest thing about staying at home is watching yr baby grow & develop those motor skills.
Adam has been reaching out & swiping whatever’s within his reach. His favourite for now? The self-made mobile we place on his playpen.
Swing it around
Keep grabbin’
and don’t let go!
Keep practising, my little botsy…amuse me with yr little tricks before [...]

In mom’s mind
Adam’s turning 3 mths in 2 days’ time, insya-Allah. I intend to get his 5-in-1 immunisation done before I return to work next week (groans…).
Today we popped by the GP for the jab. You know how it’s like in clinics on Monday mornings. For some reason or another, flu bugs attack over the weekend, more [...]

Bag him in!
Thought I’d upload this photo for memory purposes – taken last week when I bagged Adam in his ergo.
Though his neck seems relatively strong, I’d rather not take the risk. I still support his head a lot regardless of the carrier he’s in. So, ergo, in you go till perhaps mid next month!
These, were taken last [...]

Hair today, gone tomorrow
Remember how AH & I were still trying to find courage to shave off Adam’s hair? AH finally did it last Saturday, using a borrowed shaver, at night, around 10-ish when Adam was breastfeeding. Shave, shave shave… while Adam blisfully suckled his early night feed.
Spot Adam’s little fine hair before his real cukur rambut
He looked [...]

Dunkin’ 2*th
I turned 2X on Monday.
AH asked if I wanted a stroller for a present. I told him, that was the most unromantic present ever! Not to mention besar & lepas dah habis pakai, nak sorong pergi ke mana?
I also joked that if he really wanted to surprise me, he could go queue at Donutfactory & get me [...]
