Smile

She is v adorable and socialable as her brother. She always smiles since she was one month plus. She will respond to u. But, she can also shout at you when you ignore her. She likes to be accompanied and she likes people talk to her.

When she was angry or hungry, she can cried v v loud until she scare of her. I think she has a stronger character.

Hand Shaking

Her hands shaked uncontrollably non-stop when she was in deep sleep after few days discharged from the hospital. SCARE!!! Sent her back to the Pantai Peadiatrician. Doctor said she was lack of calcium and gave her red calcium syrup. Puzzle? I thought I'd have enuf calcium knowing that I drank milk & soya milk, eat calcium pill, eat tauhu during my pregnancy. I continued drinking milk powder after delivery.

After finished the calcium syrup, her condition didn't get better. On her 2nd visit, the doctor took her blood but she didn't have enough blood. They massaged her hands to squeeze out more blood. She cried and cried v loudly. What a painful experience!!

Then, the test results showed that she was ok. Huh! What a relief? The doctor concluded that she was just scared when she felt unsecured. Her conditions continued until she past two months old.

At first, I thought she was disturbed by the dirty thing. During my confinement at my MIL house, one Indian lady (two floors above my MIL unit) jumped off her back yard through my back room and landed on the ground with a loud bang. My daughter was awaken by her. Since then, I was v scared to sleep alone. So does she.

Heavy Weight

My little girl was born 3.62kg. When she turned one month, her weight was 4.3kg. Then, two months old.... her weight was escalated to 6.1kg. Doctor couldn't believe it, so did I. We put her on the weighing scale three rounds to confirm her weight. She was moved from the average weight line to the Above average line.

She is taller and heavier than the average babies. :P

Heavy Rain

I was alone after the delivery most of the time as my husband was working. Then, I decided to discharge on Wed and my SIL helped to pick-up my confinement lady at the commuter station. When I was about to discharge, there are issues with my claims and it was delayed until late afternoon. My husband got to go. Nobody else knows how to drive to Pantai (my SIL & FIL). No Choice. My SIL took a cab to Pantai and fetch my daughter and I.

Heavy downpour. Luckily, Pantai helped us to call a cab. Since then, my daughter was always associated with rain. Wherever she went, it always rained until she turned two months old.

Mei Mei

Finally, mei mei has arrived on 10 of nov to accompany KY. A day before her arrival, it was unusual morning where I noticed I pee in my pants uncontrollable at around 3am. My water bag burst. I was so panic and get myself a hot shower and a good hair wash before rushing to hospital thinking that I'll deliver any time. When I reached the EU, I was sent to the labour room. The nurse checked and the cervix was still not dilated. I was asked to wait for doctor. Around 7.30am, Dr. dropped by and checked. "No sign of contraction", WAIT. He gave me option WAIT or INDUCE. Since INDUCE=PAIN, i rather wait. I was advised to change to normal room and walk around to have faster dilation. All single rooms were taken and I had to share room with a Indian lady who watched loud Indian movies. Restless day... Nurse came around to check baby heartbeat almost every hour.

Around 3pm, my contraction started and I walked around to speed-up the dilation. The doctor came by around evening and checked my cervix was already dilated 5cm but he said that I might deliver early in the morning and asked to eat a good meal and took enough rest. I decided to change back to labour room since there is more quiet.

Waiting........ until midnight, the contraction was getting intense but the dilation only 6-7cm. After 24 hours wait, the pain was so unbearable, i was asked to lie on my side to get more contraction. Finally, I felt the urge to pass motion. I asked for nurse and she helped to massage my lower back to relieve the pain. Few minutes later, doctor came. As usual, they set-up the bed to make it easier for me to PUSH.

Suddenly, I was blurred. I mixed-up PULL & PUSH. I was supposed to pull the steel bar and push the baby out. I was confused. With two pushes, they could see the baby hair. Few more failed attempts, I was restless and asked doctor to help. Last try, I felt like tearing my vaginal apart and the baby head came out. I had to hold my breath then and the doctor was pulling the baby out. My husband was more daring this round, standing besides the doctor to watch the whole process. He cut the baby cord.

Mei Mei cried so loud after coming out. She played with her slyver and she spitted a lot. She was then cleaned-up and wrapped in a Hello Kitty cloth. The same evil nurse named her a "naughty girl" as she kicks a lot and easily get frustrated.

Disco Fever

I had recently indulged in my new habit - dancing with shaking my head wildly. My aunty was so enterntained and laughed hilariously when I shaked my heads listening to the disco songs. My parents weren't v happy with that as they didn't want me to turn into a disco kaki. They tried to warn those who have taught me this bad habit. :(

Sick

I threw out milk on Sunday morning when the phlegm stucked in my throat. Then, my mom sent me to Sri Sinar PD who gave me few medicine. Unfortunately, the medicine is extremely bitter which made me threw out and spit. My parents had tried several ways to mix it with other sweet syrup, I still threw out. At the end, they gave out on the medicine.

I was seeing another doctor who asked me to suck gas to clear the phelgm. Terrible experience. I cried non-stop. My parents' heart wrecked. Hmmm..... Today I may need to go again :(
