Mummy: Milk Plant Problem

Mummy had one of the worst times in her life. Her left breast got engorged again. Both Anne and Mummy overslept and missed the feeding time last night. Mummy did not realised that the engorgement will last until more than 12 hours. The pain that early morning was horrible. Mummy felt like want to throw herself up against the wall. Even with Anne's help and constant pumping, the swell just wouldn't subside. Anne was very frustrated and at one point she realised that there's so little milk or rather no milk coming out, she was crying and screaming like a banshee. It makes the neighbours think that our house are slaughtering babies. Hmm, speaking about breastfeeding, it reminds me of what people always say, "Free stuffs doesn't come easy..."

Tzyy Anne: Poop Princess

Anne poopped yesterday...and also day before yesterday. This is too good to be true. Coincidentally, she poopped while Popo came for a visit...haha. Popo kena grand prize twice... As for yesterday, while Mummy was feeding her, Anne suddenly stopped suckling. Her face turned red and she keep kicking. Mummy hear familiar voices from her derriere...Mustard factory starts working.

Isn't it fabulous?

Mummy: Splash!

I had 2 wet experiences today.

1. Princess Anne paip bocor
After feeding at 4am, I decided to change her diaper. While removing, her paip bocor. Yup, her mattress is wet and so did her jumper. I was thinking, it was also about her bathing time (her usual bathing time in the mornings is 6am), I put her on the non-slip mat at the other room. Maelah wasn't up yet (I didn't know she stay up to 3am to layan Anne.. o.O) at that time so its all sendirian berhad (usually Maelah will prepare the bath tubs for me). After preparing Anne's bath tubs, I undressed Anne. While I lift her up to the tub, guess what, Anne wet herself again. This time, my shorts also wet ah... So I had my bath at 5am as though I am preparing to go to work...

2. Veron, The Plumber
As I was about to feed Anne at 4pm, Maelah shouted to me. "Mem, paip bocor di belakang.." I was thinking, "What?! Another bocor incident?" >.< Maelah was all soaked. Yah, I have to be the Macgyver at that time as Hubby wasn't home and Papa & the rest had gone to Hadyai. I took the tape and temporarily seal it. I told Maelah, I don't know how long will it hold. I tried to call Hubby but he hung me up. Guess he was having a very important meeting at the site. When I thought everything was over, Maelah shouted again.. "Mem, tak boleh, ia sudah terangkat lagi.." Haiih, cukup frus.. I went outside the house to turn off the main water supply and whatever tap that is connected and available in the kitchen. I grab every available old cloth and wrap the pipe around. In the process of doing that, the water from the pipe is still flowing out like fountain and splashed all over me. I was soaked from hujung rambut hingga ke hujung kaki. Yah, I didn't feel anything sexy like one of the desperate housewives washing her car in Wisteria Lane but hot blood gushing inside me. I told Maelah not to use the thing at the moment while waiting for the Hubby to come back and fix. Maelah said, "Di rumah tak ade orang laki-laki susah" I said, "Siapa kata takda orang laki-laki susah? Takda orang laki-laki pun tak apa, kita cari jalan.." =.=

There goes my wet stories...

Tzyy Anne: tête-à-tête

Anne likes to chit chat. She wanted me to chat with her during the wee hours after feeding..walau. I was like keep dozing off. Once I shut up, she was like giving me the usual shout of 'AHH!'.



Me Love Googoogaga One...She loves to look at the ceiling fan. Maybe it has a hypnotising effect on her.. =D

Tzyy Anne: Poop Princess

Anne poopped this morning. Bravo! No wonder she cannot sleep after feeding lor...With all that stuff in her diaper, she still can googoogaga in her cot.. o.O Dr. Baskaran said it is normal for breastfeeding babies (for Anne, half a pail feeding) to poop every few days because breast milk is easy to digest.

Bro: Blogger

I got to know about bro's blog today. Walau, cukup canggih! Way to go orang sawah!

Apa Khabar Orang Sawah Di Tanam Nam?

Tzyy Anne: Exhibition

Anne went for her first checkup at General Hospital, KL this morning. Hmm, Mummy felt it was more of a photo shoot session. Yah, Dr. Baskaran, Dr. Jumeah and all the staff nurses that attended to us before catched a glimpse of Anne. Later, that day, Ah Ngien brought Anne to IMU (Ah Ngien's workplace) to 'show-show'. Mummy guess Anne is so malas to layan them, coincidentally Anne fell asleep in both sessions... >.< Anne had her first experience wearing a napkin...kaka. Anne has been wearing diaper since birth. "How is the experience like with a napkin on, Anne?" "Oh, it feels windy and circulated lah, hehe.." Mummy had ultrasound by Dr. Jumeah also. Dr. said Mummy's uterus has shrinked back to normal. However, Mummy's tummy still look bulgy. It's time to do sit ups and go to the gym... Mummy says, "Mungkin tidak." It's the second time since puberty that Mummy actually gain weight. She just wants to enjoy the moment first. No rush to slim down ler... o.O

Tzyy Anne: Poop Princess

Anne pooped today. Yellow soft stools. A good progress..way to go! Mummy is starting to keep the milk stock already. She has the first serving of fenugreek tea this morning. Mummy does not like the taste. It's weird to have the after taste of curry in her mouth, but we will see how it goes.

Mustard Anyone?

Tzyy Anne: Everybody's Sweetheart

Anne pooped every 2-3 days. It worries everybody as Anne drinks a lot, sometimes up to 5 oz per feeding (usual 3 oz). Ah Ngien suggested to change the formula. But Mummy got different plans...produce more milk for Anne! So far, Daddy had been very supportive. Mummy went and buy fenugreek seeds (halba) to be consumed with water to increase milk supply. Mummy do not know how well this will work but at least she tries.

Tzyy Anne: Everybody's Sweetheart

Anne has her education fund set up today. We had a full moon reception for her yesterday during lunch. Friends and family came and they brought a lot of gift sets and ang pow for Anne. Anne also had a non-stop photography session from all her fans...

Macam Rambo Pulak..

Omong omong

I am getting quite bored here. Apart from taking care of Anne, I have been having the same routine everyday. Same type of food and watching Astro almost all the time. I was wondering how the housewives cope with all these everyday. It does cross my mind sometimes to be a stay-at-home Mom, but it just doesn't work. I can't let Hubby to be the sole breadwinner of the family. I just want to let him know that I am here too to help out. Mom is leaving next Friday to her house. I guess if we were in our house, she would have stayed longer. I have to figure out a schedule for myself and Anne as I am getting to work very soon. Sometimes I wonder whether I could cope or not. Its not a matter of the hectic time schedule, its due to catching up with sleep. Even during those days, I could almost doze off at wheel. Since I am now in Bukit Jalil, going to my office is a bit further, so I hope everything will be fine.
