Quiet Christmas

We did not plan anything this Christmas despite me ending my confinement a few days before.

Its a quiet Christmas this year at the homeland, just me and Baby Boy as the dearie has to work today and the parent-in-laws are out for a Christmas Party. No Christmas feasting as well..

The little boy has not been sleeping much for the past week during the day and he occupies most of my time these days as we've yet to establish a routine yet and he's cranky and likes to be carried most of the time. I sure hope this phase will pass quickly. He's well-being is the best pressie that I can have this year. (oh.. plus i can lose a few more kgs and have alot more milk in my moo moo career .. if possible.. Dear Santa)

Merry Christmas peeps and my little Braedon.

One Month

A month of mummyhood and we've survived the little one's full month celebration (Thank you dear friends for the well wishes). Time has passed so very fast..

This is the little one who occupies most of my time these days and makes my day with his winsome grin. I lurve you my baby.. Happy One Month.

Being Confined

Really counting down to the end of my confinement. Some says 40 days.. but i'll take it easy from 30 days onwards. Counting down to normal food.. woots! (Although the food that the MIL cooks have not been too gingerly .. ;p)

Its easy to see why many newly minted mummies slip into depression, with the demands of parenthood like caring for the new born baby (crys, poo and pee), worrying about their health and milestones. Add in breast feeding, a body that is still recovering from the delivery, saggy tummy, weight gain, restrictions during the 'confinement' month.. sounds quite daunting. I neber thought i'll miss the 2 daily showers so so much and i can't bear to see my belly with the saggy skin and stretch marks ! Hmm... but.. the moment i see baby with his cute smile. everything is worth it.. :)

Now, there' the baby shower on Sunday to worri about.. close to 100 pax in our tiny home.. aiz.. should have separated the peeps into diff timings.. this silly old donkey moi.
