Been lacking of sleep these 2 days cuz of my precious bao bei... Haiz...

28 April 2007

Went to one of my forumies ds (ie: dear son) baby shower with Pingmis & Augboyz... Little Ryan's is really very adorable... He reminded me of Kayden's size when he's just born... Think Kayden is getting bigger in size... I couldn't help but to compare his size with Ryan's... Kayden is only older than Ryan by 1/2 month, but looking at thier tiny little bodies, Kayden doesn't look like he's only 1+ month... By the way, the food's YUMMY!! cuz it's from Neo Garden... Hehe... Brought Kayden to my granny's place... He's being a good boy, although it's his nap time in the afternoon...

After that, went Suntec with mummy & daddy... Surprisingly, the carpark's not full, managed to get a parking lot near the lift... Went to FOX as they're having promotion to celebrate their 3rd year anniversary from 26 April till 1st May... The promo that they had was to purchase apparel @ retail price & buy selected items @ $3... And if purchase up to $60, you're entitled to a $30 voucher to be use for the next purchase... I bought a demin jumper, 3 t-shirts (2 @ the price of $3 each) and 1 orange polo tee for Kayden... So contented with my purchase... Drove mummy & daddy back home as it's getting late...

29 April 2007

Today is daddy's birthday... The birthday man wanted to have tim sum @ Fortunate Restaurant @ Toa Payoh... Well, the birthday man wins... It's been donkey years since I last had tim sum there... It was super duper crowded, maybe cuz Mother's Day is round the corner... We had 16 plates of tim sum & I alone already whipped up almost 1/2 of what we had... *greedy me*

This is a treat from me to daddy... I didn't know having only 16 plates of tim sum was sooooooo expensive... Hubby even commented he rather use the $$$ to bring daddy to any hotels for their buffets... After that, went NTUC for a while... Initially wanted to go AMK Hub to shop, but ended up heading home cuz hubby been nagging me not to spend so much $$$$... He said I've been spending too much these few days, or eversince Kayden's baby shower... He said everytime I bring Kayden out gai gai, I ended up buying lotsa stuffs... So for now, I had to curb my shopping temptations... =(

Can someone tell me WHY BABIES CRY FOR NO REASONS??? OR THEY JUST WANT SOMEONE TO CARRY???

These few days, I noticed Kayden will cry for no reasons, usually in the middle of the night (from 12am onwards)... At 1st, I thought he was hungry so I made his milk milk & let him drink...He like entertaining me by drinking abit, and used his little tongue to push the teat out of his mouth... Then after awhile, he CRIED very loud so I 'forced' the teat into his tiny mouth... Then cried again... So, no choice had to carry him up & calm him down... I really don't wanna to spoil him by carrying him up whenever he cries, but no choice...

A while later (about 1/2 to 1 hour) he cried AGAIN... So I thought his diaper was soiled badly with his poo poo, and cleaned him up... I just don't understand why babies will cry when even changing their diapers... Don't they want to be clean?? Or is it JUST my Kayden that's being cranky? Haiz... After changing, he kept quiet again & off to his dreamland... But after a while, the whole drama started again... Haiz...

Sometimes I just wanna hit him real hard (I really mean REAL hard) on either his buttock or his thigh for crying for no reasons, but I don't really bear... I DID hit him hard on his thigh once, cuz I simply can't take it (all his crying & nonsense) & he cried REAL loud till my hubby gave me a fed-up look... Ok, I'm @ fault... I shouldn't hit him hard, but sometimes it's not that I want to hit him one ma... I'm a bad mummy right? Ok, I promise NOT to hit Kayden AGAIN...

I just hope that this episode will be gone soon, if not I'm sure I'll get depression...

Pics of my baobei:

Yesterday was a clubbing gathering organised by Charmaine... We met @ 10pm @ St James & I was late... Supposed to have more mummies joined us last night but in the end only 7 of us turned up... Enxiii (aka Serene) was the 1st one to reach, followed by Charmaine, Elaine (aka bell) & Rebecca (aka LingC)... And I was late cuz Kayden kept crying for no reasons when I'm about to leave the house, so have to coax him for a while... And lastly, Jessie (aka DZ) arrived...

Yesterday was my 1st time to St James & the only thing that caught my eyes was the orange mini cooper (convertible) parked inside a cage (think only for display) outside the Boiler Room... We had our 1st drinks outside the Boiler Room before heading to start the the ball rolling... We wanted to go Dragonfly but the queue was damn f**king long so we went in by Boiler Room... The cover charge is $15... Enxiii brought us to one room (which I can't remember what's the name) beside Boiler Room to start our party night... That room was full of ang mohs & it's more like a live band thingy and the music wasn't my cup of tea... After that, we went PowerHouse (if I recalled correctly) to check out the music... There's alot of youngsters in that room (more like early 20s)... It was more like trance or rather house music, also not my cup of tea... We danced quite awhile there & we spotted a cute ang moh...

Then we went in Boiler Room while Charmaine went to lead Lydia in... Lydia (aka deardear07) was the last one to arrive... Boiler Room is more like R & B & the crowd mostly malays... We took a few pics there (will upload as soon as I've received it from them)... After a while, Enxiii left early cuz she's down with very bad flu... Then the rest of us went to Dragonfly to check out the place... Well, that room was quite like Canto with live band, the crowd was mostly chinese (or all)... It was super duper crowded & we had a hard time squeezing in... Project Superstar 2 winner, Darren was performing there when we entered... He wasn't very good looking (to me la) but he's very tall... Didn't expect that he's so tall cuz when saw him on TV, he's like not very tall lei...

Anyway, we mummies really enjoyed ourselves to the fullest & bid St James goodbye @ around 2+am... After sending Jessie back, I quickly sped all the way back home cuz I was missing my precious bao bei sooooooooooooo much eversince I'm out... Cuz that was the very 1st time that he was not by my side...

Overall, I really enjoyed myself & it's really nice meeting Serene, Jessie & Lydia for the 1st time...

Today 1st time drove Kayden out, cuz I finally got a car seat for Kayden!!! I got a 2nd hand car seat from one of the mummies from my forum... I would say the condition still not bad...

Met up with 2 of my ex-colleagues @ AMK hub for lunchie as well as catching up... Supposed to be there @ 1.30pm but I was late for 1/2 hour... We had lunch @ New York ___ (forgot about the name) & I had a ribeye steak with black pepper sauce... Well, the portion of the steak is still ok, but the thickness of the steak is like only less than 1/2 cm, it's soooooooo thin lor... Too bad never take a pic of it...

After lunch, went for eyebrow trimming @ one of the beauty salon in AMK central... Cuz I'm lazy going all the to Orchard to get it trimmed... Well, I have to say I'm not really satisfied with the trimming... While walking back to AMK hub, one of my heels ganna stuck in the drain cover & Kayden's pram fell backwards... I was like OMFG!!! when I saw the pram fell backwards & Kayden's (upside down position) eyes open big big... I was sooooooooo scared that his head would hit onto the concrete fall, luckily my friend saw & held it up again for me... Then I quickly checked on Kayden & was glad that he's not injuired... He was not crying & went back to his dreamland very fast... Luckily I've belted him to the pram, if not... *Phew* I don't dare to tell hubby about that cuz he will ban me from bringing Kayden out again...

Am so glad nothing is wrong with Kayden, cuz if not, I WILL never forgive myself... Thank God... *Phew*

It's sooooooo heart wrenching... Little Sabie is gone forever... Just got to know the news from the forum that she's gone this morning... It must be too much for her parents to accept the fact that their lovely & beautiful daughter is gone forever... Here are more pics of little Sabie...

http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/patsy_sg/album?.dir=2520scd&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/patsy_sg/my_photos

Little Sabie, do rest in peace & you're forever in the hearts of those who loved you so dearly...

Got to know this news from the forum that I frequent & it's just so sad to hear such a news... It's actually from Singapore Motherhood Forum...There's a little baby girl named Sabie who's in critical condition now after an operation... She has a hole in her heart & had the operation on that... But her condition worsened after the 3rd day of the operation... She's in ICU now... So many people from that forum & also from mine are praying hard for the baby girl to pull thru... Heard that the doctor wanted to remove the life support from Sabie this morning, but later in the afternoon giving Sabie's parents & family members another 48 hours... I'm a parent myself & I totally understand what Sabie's parents are going thru', cuz when my Kayden was in hospital for those few days, I also very very sad & heartpain...

So I hope that everyone & those who's reading my blog now pray for little Sabie to pull thru' all these sufferings & on the road to recovery as her parents & relatives are still waiting for her to play with them... Every mintue now is VERY VERY important to little Sabie & her family members...

Mighty GOD, pls bless little Sabie & let her pull thru all this sufferings...


p/s: Anyone who wish to follow up on Sabie's condition, pls kindly go to the below link...

Today is my birthday!!! Viola!!! Hubby bringing me & Kayden out for dinner!!! This is the 1st time celebrating with a new member in the Loo family...

Finally started my post natal massage yesterday... Been postponing since I discharged from hospital... 1stly, after c-sect, it's not advisable to do the massage so soon... have to wait for @ least 3 weeks... 2ndly, I have to admit I'm very lazy to wake up early in the morning just for the massage... Cuz sleep to me is VERY important, especially now Kayden is here... Anyway, the massage is really very shiok but it's unbearable @ night cuz of the binding as it's very itchy @ the wrapped area... I kept scratching when lying on bed @ night... Wondering is that normal to feel the itchiness or is it cuz my skin is sensitive... *scratch head*

Recently, I got many many mosquitoe bites on my legs & body... Wondering why out of a sudden got soooo many mosquitoes like me... And it looked soooooo awful... Praying hard it will go away soon...

Today, it's the 2nd day of the massage... This time round, she bind me real tight till can't even sit down... Am supposed to see results of a flat tummy, but it doesn't seems like the case lei... Anyway, she said my last session will be tomorrow cuz the area that's being bind is very itchy & look like mosquito bites... So I'm wondering is my skin so sensitive or is due to dirt? Hopefully I can see effective results (ie: FLAT tummy) by tomorrow or after tomorrow so thatI won't have to go thru' the whole process (ie: the itchiness) again... *PRAY real hard*

14th March 2007

Brought Kayden out for the 2nd time to my girl friend's place alone again... YES!!! Alone again, and this time round with additional Kayden's pram... I never expect that I can handle him & the pram soooooooo well... *a round of applause for myself... =)*

My purpose of going to my girl friend's place is to purchase a pair of wedges that she's selling online... Anyway, my girl friend is having a shoe fair @ Chinatown Point this coming Monday, 16th April till 23rd April... I must say the shoes she's selling are quite nice & are from Hong Kong... I got the black one... But I'm thinking of getting the turqouise one too... Hmm...

Pls kindly visit http://joylynho.multiply.com/ for all the shoes range... *hehe... must get commisson from my girl friend for advertising on her behalf...* And ya, when I'm changing Kayden's diapers in my friend's room, Kayden 'accidentally' pee a few drops onto her bed... Lol... Luckily she never geh gao with me... *Phew*

After that, went to Diana's daughter, Demi's baby shower... Demi is only 5 days younger than Kayden... Hmm... Maybe next time Kayden & Demi can celebrate birthday together... Lol... I would say this was a challenge for me, cuz I have to carry Kayden, a bag of gifts from my girl friend to Kayden & also his pram... But I still managed to cope with it all the way to Yishun... When I reached there, Rebecca aka LingC, Darren aka Gunners, Wendy aka clhw30, Elaine aka bell were already there with their little ones... Shane was sooo cute, he knows how to smile when you're playing with him... How I wish Kayden can do that soon... I left an hour later cuz my mil TOLD me or rather NAG many times to bring Kayden back early... And Diana was super duper nice to get her hubby send me back home... *Thanks Diana*

15th April 2007

Today again, I brought Kayden to my mummy's place and then to my granny's place... My granny had not seen Kayden eversince he's born... So had to go today... I really find that pram is very useful to me, cuz I don't have to carry Kayden all the way and provided the places I'm going is pram friendly... Stayed @ my granny's place for while as Kayden is very cranky & went Orchard together with my parents... I would say this is the 1st time that my parents actually went out with Kayden...

Had late lunchie @ Taka foodcourt & shopped around Taka for baby stuffs to put @ my mummy's place... Yuppie!! Bought a pair of 3/4 pants from Fashion Lab... Realised after giving birth, I can't fit in some of my clothes... Only managed to squeeze into one of my favorite jeans today... Haiz... =( After that went Gap @ Wisma to get Kayden new clothings, as I realised he doesn't have much clothes for gai gai... Am happy with what I bought... =) But I'm thinking should I change the rompers sizes from 3-6 months to 6-12 months... Cuz I'm afraid that Kayden might not be able to fit in as time goes by... He's weighing @ 5 kg now, am surprised that just within 1 week he gained weight so fast since his last checkup last Tuesday... Kayden slept thru'out the whole outing, except for being very cranky & crying non-stop when wanna drink milk milk or poo poo... (x_x)

8th April 2007


Yuppie!!! My confinement is finally over!!! I declared myself officially on 8th April, Sunday together with Kayden's baby shower...

It was a busy day for me, my hubby & also Kayden... Kayden's baby shower started from 1pm - 7pm... 1st half (1pm - 4pm) was for relatives & 2nd half (4pm - 7pm) was for friends... Luckily I split it into 2 session, cuz 1st half already filled up my place to almost no more space to move about...


Had a great time chatting with my forumies & friends... My hubby was the most happiest person on that day, cuz he finally had a chance to drink & also chat with his friends... Cuz he seldom go out & chill out with his friends eversince I'm pregnant... It's been 9+ months that he last enjoyed himself...


Oh ya... Kayden got lots of ang pows & gifts from all aunties & uncles... Let pics do the talking...

Finally Kayden took a pic together with his godma...

10 April 2007

Today 1st time I brought Kayden out all by myself to meet Julia aka zhuzhu, Nadia & mole mole... YES!!! All by myself!!! Even my mil also can't believe it... I was kinda pissed with my mil last night when I told her that I'm bringing Kayden out to Orchard to meet my friends... She straight away gave me a black face & said he's still so young (ie: only 1 month old), why bring him out... I told her straight "why cannot bring him out... Then if now don't bring him out, then when bring him out?" As if I never bring him out like that... I also got bring him out to his checkup when he's only few weeks old what... So what's the diff?? And she also did something that I'm quite pissed too... Kayden was crying for no reason & she go carry him w/o supporting his neck!!! She carried him by the armpit... Hello!!! Kayden's bone still not so strong yet, so still need to support his neck when carrying him... I told her off too... I'm sooooooo angry...

Anyway, I was so proud of myself today... I can bring Kayden out without the help of my hubby... Kayden was also very guai & he slept thru'out the outing... Except for time to drink milk & to change diapers... Met Julia aka zhuzhu, Nadia & Mole Mole @ Forum Gallery Coffee Bean... It's my 1st time meeting Nadia & Mole Mole... Have a great time chatting with them although all of us were busy attending to our little ones... Too bad we didn't take any pics together... Anyway, there's another gathering for mummies bloggers on the 5th May... I'm looking forward for that gathering as I've missed the previous 2 gatherings...

And also, thanks Julia for lending Keidi's pram for Kayden to sleep & also changing of his diapers...

After today, there will be more times that I will bring Kayden out alone to meet my friends... (,")

Finally had my hair done!!!! Been wanting to have my hair done but can't when pregnant...

My New Look 2007 (w/o make up)

Counting down to my FREEDOM!!! Just one more day to go... Kayden's baby shower is this Sunday, 8th April, meaning my confinement will be over too... Can't wait to bring Kayden out for gai gai... Been staying home for the whole month after delivery (minus off the checkups that Kayden had), sooooooooooooooo boring & tiring...

Next week one of my forumies also doing her daughter's baby shower... After that, there might be a gathering organised by some mummies who blog... I've missed 2 outings that they'd organised, so the upcoming one I"ll sure join them together with Kayden... On the 21st April, there's another clubbing gathering orgnised by Charmaine (one of my forumies)... I'm sure to go cuz it's really been a long long time since I clubbed (cuz due to pregnancy)... Then on the 28th April, there's also another gathering organised by one mummy from the forum that I always frequent... I'm still not sure whether I wanna join or not... Then on the 29th April, it's my daddy's birthday & he's bringing us for tim sum... Yum Yum... It's been very very long since I last had tim sum...

Hmm... Seems like after my confinement, alot of programmes had been lined up for me... It's gonna be a busy April for me...

p/s: my birthday also this month on the 17th... =P

These few days Kayden had been very cranky... I don't know is it because it's part of his growing up or what...

Eversince last week, he would cry when he poo poo or fart & he will gek till his face red red like lobster... I told hubby that maybe he got wind in his tummy as I noticed that his tummy is slightly bloated... But hubby told me straight & said no such thing... I was like WTH... Initially he only made noise & started to get cranky sometimes when he drink his milk milk... But now it's like even he's not drinking his milk milk, he also cried his lungs out... I see him like that, my heart really hurts... I've consulted alot of my friends about his condition & most of them ask me to apply Ru Yi You & do some massaging on Kayden's tummy or get infacol...

So brought Kayden to his follow up check up on his eye infection thingy... The doctor said his condition is fine & ask me to monitor his condition from now... If in theevent of having consistent coughing or tummy hardens, have to go back to KKH immediately... Although his eye is recovering 90-95%, the doctor said there's 5-10% of his condition to relapse or will get infection in his lungs... I did asked the doctor about his crankiness & also he having wind in his tummy... The doctor said it's normal for new borns to have slightly bloated tummy cuz their organs are slightly bigger for their tiny little bodies & asked me not to worry... But he did prescribed colic drop (infacol) just in case I'm still worried... So I have to just keep my fingers crossed & hope it won't come back...

Kayden also started to have heat rash on his face & neck... I did noticed a few on his neck last week but I pay no attention to it... *BAD MUMMY* After having consulted my friends, got a cream for curing heat rash... Hopefully the heat rash will go away & leave Kayden alone cuz this Sunday is his baby shower... So I want him to look nice nice on that day... So I have to regularly keep Kayden cool & fresh...

Can't wait for my confinement to be over (in just a few more days) & Kayden's baby shower...
