Our 宝贝宣慈: Baby Jez: 12 Months Old

2009-09-09T16:52:00.007+08:00

12 Months Old: 28 Jul 09 to 27 Aug 09

We brought Jez to trim her hair as her hair is getting long. We celebrated Jez's 1 yr old birthday at our house on the 25 Jul 09, slightly earlier than her actual date. This time we invited lesser guests as compared to her full mth celebration. We ordered a 60 pax buffet. We would like to thank those who spent their time with us to celebrate this special occasion with us and thanks for all the presents. I ordered a cute Baby Minnie cake and specially bought a Baby Minnie outfit for Jez to wear as she's born in the Year of Rat so she's a baby Minnie too. I hope everyone likes the cake & the buffet.

1 week after we celebrated Jez's bdae, she actually started to become sick. Initially, she had cough & mild fever. Later on, she had flu. After another week, her cough & flu got a little better but she started to have fever again... I remember on National day, after we watched the NDP parade, she had fever. I gave her medicine and her fever subsided. But after a few hours later, the fever came again. This repeats about 3 times and I became very worried so the next day, Wilson's sis brought us to KKH to see doc. Doc said that she had viral infection and fever will come & go for abt 5 days. I felt quite helpless and scared also, especially when Wilson is not around. Luckily, my mum is at hm with me. On the 5th day, she still had fever so my bro's gf drove us to KKH. She had blood test, urine test and X-ray. They said that she had bacteria infection. So they gave her antibiotic, only then, she got better. However, the antibiotic had side effects. She had diarrhea and vomited about twice. The whole process lasted for almost 3 weeks. I'm super glad that she has totally recovered now.

This month Jez had another great achievement, to sit up by her own on 4Aug09. Altho' she was sick, but she kept on practicing whenever she felt better. I also taught her a new hand signal for 'No More'. Whenever, she finished eating her porridge or drinking her milk, I will say 'No More' and she will do the hand signal by turning her wrist. She can understand things very well. She can already differentiate who is Mama, Papa, Ah Gong, Ah Ma and Popo. When we say 'Where is Ah Ma?', she will turn & look at Ah Ma. When we say 拜拜, she will look at the 神台.

Jez likes to sit in the walker very much, cos she can go anywhere she likes... She's considered slow in her motor skills. Sometimes, I will put her inside the playpane and she can usually stay inside for abt 30mins so that I can do some other things and need not worry that she will injure herself.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 11 Months Old

2009-08-19T19:12:00.009+08:00

11 Months Old: 28th June 2009 to 27th Jul 2009

Baby Jez weight is abt 7.6kg. She needs to be fed every 3 to 4 hrs, drinking 6 & half oz of milk each time. There are 1 cereal & 1 porridge feeds or 2 porridge feeds each day.

Baby Jez has learnt quite a few things this month. She is able to do hand signals for 'twinkle twinkle little stars'. She will open & close her fingers when we sing the song. Also, she has learnt to do fly kiss. When we say 'Hello', she will get the signal to do the phone call action, to put her hand beside her ear. She also learnt to do 伤脑筋, she will place her hand on her head & pat for a few times when we say 伤脑筋. We actually regretted teaching her 伤脑筋 coz she actually pat her head quite hard sometimes. She can understand right and left hand. She has also learnt to say "Ne Ne" for milk. She has learnt to open & close bottle caps. One thing very dangerous that she has learnt is to crawl out of the walker. Now, we have to keep an eye on her whenever she's in her walker. This month Jez has to part with Mama again as Mama has to leave for Xiamen to meet Papa for 15 days.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 10 Months Old

2009-06-23T16:26:00.023+08:00

10 Months Old: 28th May 2009 to 27th June 2009

Baby Jez's weight is abt 7.5kg.She needs to be fed every 3 to 4 hrs, drinking 6oz of milk each time. There is 1 porridge & 1 cereal or 2 porridge feeds per day. There is 1 night feed.

Baby Jez has totally stopped sucking the pacifier, great achievement.

She has learnt to clap her hands. I remembered when I first taught her, I hold her hands & show her how to clap. Only after a few times, she is already able to clap herself. From then, I realised that I can start to teach her many other things.

Later on, she oso learnt to wave her hands meaning 'Bye Bye'. She can also do "Peekaboo'. When we say "Peeka.....", she will cover her eyes with her hands then she will open up her hands and see if we said "boo".

Baby Jez starts to wriggle more this month. She will crawl using left hand & left leg to push herself further to get the things she wants. She is also trying very hard to sit up by herself.

Altho' she's considered slow in crawling/walking, her legs aren't weak at all. Her legs are actually quite 'powderful'as she kicks very hard. If she is unable to fetch the things she wants, she will also use her legs to grab/hook the things. She is definitely making full use of her legs.

This month Baby Jez has to part with Papa again. As Papa needs to leave for Xiamen, China to work. This time, we can sense that the bond between Baby Jez & Wilson. Whenever, we do videocall thru' Skype, we can see that Baby Jez is very happy and she will respond to Wilson.

'Baby Jez, press the button.'

'Baby Jez, move the gear.'

One sided wriggle....

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 9 Months Old

2009-05-19T15:03:00.024+08:00

9 months old: 28th Apr 09 to 27th May 09

Baby Jez's weight is abt 7.3kg. She needs to be fed every 3 hrs, drinking 6 oz of milk each time. There is 1 porridge & 1 cereal feed per day. There is 1 night feed.

On 30th Apr 09, we heard Baby Jez call Mama for the first time, it was clear & loud. Maybe it was just an coincident, we did not really hear her call again subsequently. Baby Jez celebrates Mother's day for the first time. We went to Forum shopping centre, I tink she enjoys the day more than me as she saw many toys in Toy'R'US. We had Tim Sum for lunch & Seafood for dinner that day. Thanks to Jez Papa. Heehee...

Baby Jez is getting naughtier. She will throw temper or even shout if she's unhappy, or if she want someone to carry her go walk walk... She will even choose who to carry her. If she doesnt want to let you carry, she will beat your hands and turn her face to the back. While we were having our meal, we need to find something for her to hold to entertain her. Or else, she will refuse to sit & wait for us to finish the meal.

She can now sit steadily without much support. However, it is still impt to 'jaga' her while she's sitting as she will juz lie dwn anytime. We also tried not to give her pacifier when she's going to slp. 婆婆 was the one who started to try, and indeed, Baby Jez can slp without her pacifier. Thanks to 婆婆. I always thought it will be difficult to stop her from sucking her pacifier. From then onwards, we will only give her if she's really cranky.

Baby Jez also learns some hand signals like shaking her hands which means 'Bye Bye'. I also taught her how to clap hands. Surprisingly, she picks up quite fast. When we say 'clap hands', she will put her hands together to clap.

Baby Jez likes to sleep with her pillow covering her face. This is exactly what I'm doing also. Heehee....

Everyone likes Baby Jez's feet very much when they see her. Coz her feet will keep circling when she's excited or happy. Also, her feet is considered small cos both me & Wilson's are small too.

Baby Jez really perspires alot. Sometimes, I direct the fan straight at her, she will still perspire & the sweat will flow dwn drop by drop. Just like her Papa!

We found 4 new teeth growing this month. 2 front teeth on the upper jaw & 2 front teeth on the lower jaw, heehee.... :)

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 8 Months Old

2009-05-01T16:19:00.004+08:00

8 months old: 28 Mar 2009 to 27 Apr 2009

Baby Jez's weight is about 7.2kg. She needs to be fed every 3 to 4 hrs, drinking 5 and half oz of milk each time. 1 Cereal and 1 Porridge per day.

Baby Jez gets to swim for the first time on 10Apr09 at Ziyan 干妈's hse. We can see that she felt abit insecure when i put her in the water. However, a few minutes later, she started to play with the water... Altho' she did not really get very excited, we can see that she's enjoying herself and she knows what's going on. She did not cry for the whole 15mins session. I believe she likes water activites alot just like her Papa, will try to bring her for swimming more often...

Baby Jez starts to snatch things from her cousins now. She can be quite fierce sometimes. Ah Ma bought Baby Jez a mini piano and she likes it very much. When her cousins touch her piano, she will push their hands away. In order to stop her selfishness, I will purposely ask her cousins to touch her toys while she's playing so that they play together... However, kids are just kids. It's still a long way to teach her the correct values...

It is now very dangerous to leave Baby Jez sitting on the infant seat alone now. She will put both her hands at the side of the seat and push herself up. If nobody is monitoring, the seat might just turn over. I will only put her on the infant seat when she wants to drink milk as she is now able to hold the bottle and finish all the milk.

This month I have to leave Baby Jez for the first time to go to Abu Dhabi for 9 days to meet up with Wilson. We came back together on 25Apr09 and Wilson's sis actually brought Baby Jez to the airport to welcome us. Wilson is really happy to see Baby Jez. On the first day, Baby Jez doesnt really want to communicate with Wilson. However, on the second day, after much playing with her, she somehow can sense that this man is different from others and started to get along very well with Wilson. Heehee....

Baby Jez can sit more steadily now for 5 to 10 secs, with both her hands supported in front.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 7 Months Old

2009-03-25T16:26:00.029+08:00

7 months old: 28 Feb 2009 to 27 Mar 2009

Baby Jez's weight is abt 7kg. She needs to be fed every 3 to 4 hrs and is drinking 5oz of milk each time. 1 cereal/porridge feed per day.

Baby Jez gets to sit on the walker for the first time on 7 Mar 09. It was a saturday and as I was also having video call with Wilson, he also managed to see Baby Jez first time sitting on the walker, exploring the buttons, and moving around the living hall. I'm glad that Wilson saw it. Even though, he's in overseas, I still hope that he can be very much involved with Baby Jez's development. Baby Jez is very excited to move around in the walker. She will keep pressing the music buttons and rolling the ball attached to the walker.

On the 18th Mar 09, Baby Jez actually called 'Papa' for the first time. Sounds weird right? Why is she calling Papa when Papa is not even around, should call Mama first mah... Hahaha.... Maybe becos we do keep saying 'Papa' to her so as to keep on reminding her about Papa and also she hears her cousins calling their Papa everyday. Ah Ma, Ah Kor and Ah Pek are the first ones to hear her call Papa. That morning, everyone was shocked to hear that she called Papa. It was loud and clear and repeated many times. Ah Kor got excited and brought out the camera, wanted to video down. However, Baby Jez became more attracted to the camera and stop calling. Luckily, Ah Kor still manage to capture her saying 'Papa' once after a long wait. Subsequently, I also keep hearing her call 'Papa'. Sometimes, she called very gently and it sounds really sweet. Too bad it's too difficult to video down as she will juz call out of a sudden.

We gave Baby Jez porridge again this month. However, she still seems to prefer cereal than porridge. I think it is because cereal are sweeter. She likes sweet stuff and that explains why I like to eat sweet things when I'm pregnant.

On the 22nd Mar 09, Baby Jez's number open 4D for the first time. Her weight 3215 open under the starters and it's very lucky of Ah Gong and Ah Ma who both strike. Baby Jez is able to turn to the left quite smoothly now.

She is also able to sit with her hands supported in front but it will only last for about 5 seconds.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 6 Months Old

2009-03-01T16:07:00.020+08:00

6 months old: 28 Jan 2009 to 27 Feb 2009

Baby Jez's weight is about 6.8kg. She needs to be fed every 3 to 4 hrs, drinking 4 and a half oz each time. One cereal feed per day. There are about 2 night feeds. Her hair is about 2 inches long but many people still say she looks like a baby boy.

I discovered Baby Jez's first tooth on 28 Jan 2009, which is also the first day of her being 6 months old. It was found on the top right gum. After the first discovery, there's no other tooth found until end of Feb.

Baby Jez likes very much to use her index fingers to touch, dig or scratch things. When she's about to sleep, she will also keep touching her own fingers, as if thinking why all the ten long objects can move differently at the same time.

We also heard her say 'mum mum' this month... Hopefully, she will say 'Ma Ma' soon since both are similar.

She also starts to eat solid food and the first solid food that I gave her is porridge. However, later on I realise it's better to give her cereal first as I'm afraid that the porridge might not be soft enough for her to swallow. Baby Jez loves cereal very much. Whenever she sees the bowl, she will get very excited and keep on kicking her legs as she knows that it's time to eat cereal.

Baby Jez managed to turn to her left on 22 Feb 09. However, crawling is still not as easy for her at the moment. I believe it is also because I did not let her crawl on the playing mat whereby there's more friction and can assist her to climb. Baby Jez will try to reach out to anything that appears before her eyes. If she sees it, she will bend her body & stretch out her hands to get it. She's very attracted to toys with music. She likes to play books too. I brought her to the community library in Sengkang Compass Point for the first time. I only gave her a mini book and she actually played with the book for 1 hr, just by touching, turning or scratching the book. I taught her how to open the book and turn the page and within minutes, she is already able to turn the pages herself. She gets very excited by the pictures & colors inside the book and she becomes talkative, as if trying to tell us what she saw in the book.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 5 Months Old

2009-01-31T11:04:00.009+08:00

5 months old: 28 Dec 2008 to 27 Jan 2009

Baby Jez's weight is about 6.6kg. She needs to be fed every 3 to 4 hrs, drinking 4oz of milk each time. There are about 1-2 night feeds. Her hair is about 1 inch long.

Baby Jez has to part with Jez Papa this month as he has to go to Abu Dhabi to work for 3 months. I felt quite sad actually, especially because Wilson will not be able to celebrate Baby Jez's first CNY with us. We miss him very much and look forward to see him in Apr 09.

Baby Jez celebrates her first CNY this year and she's happy to receive Ang Pows. She will grab hold of the Ang Pow & play with it. I think she's attracted to the colour & design of the Ang Pows. On the first day of CNY, Baby Jez collected a total of $178 of Ang Pow. So coincidently, 178 is also our block number. Heehee....

Baby Jez also gets her first visit to Ikea Tampines and Jurong point this month. She is able to hold her bottle steadily this month. However, most of the time, she is biting the teat rather than drinking water from it. Baby Jez is still not able to climb. She will attempt to climb but it doesn't seem easy for her. I will let her practice more often in the following month. Hopefully, she will be able to climb by the time she turns 7 months old.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 4 Months Old

2009-01-03T10:10:00.019+08:00

4 months old: 28 Nov 2008 - 27 Dec 2008

Baby Jez's weight is abt 6.2kg. She needs to fed every 3 to 4 hrs, drinking 4oz of milk each time. There are about 1-2 night feeds.

We brought Baby Jez for a haircut in this month. The old folks say either cut the baby's hair during their first month or fourth month. We brought Baby Jez to a neighbourhood salon to shave all her hair. Surprisingly, she did not cry at all. I was actually preparing for her scream. Heehee.... We all feel that she looks good in her 'Botak Head'. As her hair starts to drop in the 3rd month, we can see holes ard her head which is not nice. After the shave, she looks much better. She has a round & nice head and I feel that she somehow looks like the '一休和尚' (a cartoon character).

Before her haircut, we brought her to the photo studio to take studio shots. We are entitled to 1 complimentary 5R portrait as I took up a photo package at the hospital after I delivered. She was very excited and not scared at all. When the auntie at the studio tried to make her smile, she was very happy and laughing away. It only took us abt 15mins to take 2 shoots, 1 family portrait & 1 Baby Jez solo portrait.

We brought Baby Jez for shopping almost every weekend during this month as Wilson took a break from dragonboat & he does not have any training during weekends. Baby Jez gets her first visit to many shopping centres like Suntec, Milenia Walk, Great World City, Takashimaya, Wisma, Bugis Junction, Marina Square and even Kallang and Changi Airport all 3 Terminals.

Baby Jez also celebrated her first Christmas this month. She received lots of presents from many uncles & aunties. Most of her presents are clothes. Wilson also bought her 1 Baby Gap top & 1 Polo Ralph top during his M'sia trip as Christmas present.

Baby Jez is now able to put her pacifier inside her mouth correctly. In fact, she loves to play with her pacifier. She will turn the pacifier in different directions, keep looking at it and biting it in all directions. Her saliva is still drooling continuously.

On one occasion, I happen to let Baby Jez hold a pen and she seems to be a left-handed. Since Wilson is a left-handed, it's possible for her to be a left-handed too.

Baby Jez attempts to crawl too, first attempt seen on 14th Dec 08. She will start to get angry and frustrated when she finds herself not moving after trying & trying to crawl. It can be seen that she's quite impatient actually. We didnt really let her practice her crawling frequently. Thus, I think it will still take some time before she can really crawl.

She is also able to hold her both feet now. Holding her feet has become a form of exercise for her and I think she feels happy to have something new to do.

Baby Jez also attempts to hold the milk bottle and drink water herself. First attempt is seen on 27th Dec 08. Altho' the length of time that she hold the bottle is quite short but it's still an achievement in the 4th month.

Our 宝贝宣慈，Baby Jez: 3 Months Old

2008-12-08T14:52:00.006+08:00

3 Months Old: 28 Oct 2008 - 27 Nov 2008

Baby Jez's weight is abt 5.9kg. She needs to be fed every 3 to 3 & a half hrs, drinking 3 & a half oz of milk each time. There are about 2 night feeds.

Baby Jez begins to have the habit of sucking her fingers. She also has lots of saliva this month. Her mouth and fingers are always wet. At first, I even suspect her tooth is growing as her gums seem to be itchy, causing her to suck her fingers very frequently.

She is able to turn to the right & change to crawling position. The first attempt was seen on 12 Nov 08. After she succeed in the turning, whenever I ly her down on her back, she will definitely turn. Each time I see that she's tired, I will move her back to the lying position but she always doesn't want to rest. After a while, she will turn again. Indeed an active baby.

Baby Jez getting more & more playful. She observes the environment closely and seems to be able to recognise her own house. As I need to go back to work after taking all my 3 months of maternity, my mother in law(MIL) starts to help me take care of Baby Jez. The first day at my MIL's place, Baby Jez will start to look at the house very closely. Looking here & there and even seems to start crying because she can sense some difference in her environment. My MIL has to keep talking to her & playing with her then she is ok. She also can understand that pacifier is meant to be put inside her mouth. She will try to hold her pacifier and try to put it inside her mouth, tho' most of the time she holds it in the wrong direction.

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: 2 Months Old

2008-12-07T23:45:00.012+08:00

2 Months Old: 28 Sep 2008 - 27 Oct 2008

Baby Jez's weight is about 5.5kg. She needs to be fed every 3 hrs, drinking 3oz of milk each time. There are about 2 to 3 night feeds. Baby Jez starts to wear M size diapers.

Baby Jez is able to see as far as 2 meters away. My mother will always try to test her eyesight by standing quite a distance away from her. When she called her name, Baby Jez will turn & look & then, she will smile. We believe that she is able to see.

Baby Jez also attempts to turn to her left side. Her first attempt was seen on 2nd Oct 08. She is already able to turn to her right side fully but she is still not able to position herself in the crawling position. She is also able to grab hold of her soft toy herself and sometimes she can hold them up really high. She starts to learn to play with her soft toys.

Baby Jez always laughs very loudly especally when her 婆婆 plays with her. She will kick her both legs really hard when she's excited. However, she will also cry very loudly or even scream when she's hungry or sleepy. I will massage her or let her do some simple hands & legs exercise regularly as well. She likes to be massaged as she will ly down quietly & let me massage her. It is said that massage is good for babies as they can sleep better.

Our 宝贝宣慈，Baby Jez: 1 Month Old

2008-12-06T11:32:00.013+08:00

First Month: 28th Aug 2008 - 27th Sep 2008

Baby Jez's weight is about 4.5kg. She needs to be fed every 2 & a half hrs to 3 hrs, drinking 2 & a half oz of milk each time. There are about 3 night feeds.

We held Baby Jez full month celebration on 23rd Aug 08. As her hair was very nice, we couldn't bear to shave her hair. We only cut a little bit of her hair on that day. The old folks say baby's hair need to be shaved or cut during full month but I do not know what's the actual reason behind. Many of our friends & relatives came to share our joy. It was really a busy day for me & Wilson. We ordered a total of 180 pax of buffet & we are very glad that there was no leftover. We were so busy that we did not take any photos on that day. I only took 1 photo of Baby Jez before the buffet started. We are very grateful to those who spared their time & came for the baby shower. My study room was full of presents and my sis even said that our house is as if a shop selling baby stuff. I should have taken a photo of all the presents.

At 1 month old, Baby Jez becomes even more talkative. She is able to respond to anybody who talks to her. She is also able to focus on the Red, Black & White Flashcards. As I move the cards, her eyes will also follow the cards. Her eyes never stop looking at things. You always can see her eyeballs rolling here & there. Baby Jez also attempts to turn to her right side in this month. First attempt is seen on 20th Sep 08.

I tried to bring Baby Jez out with me alone on 12th Sep 08. I brought her back to my office as my colleagues were celebrating Mooncake festival. We travelled by LRT, then MRT to go to Tanjong Pagar from Punggol. It was quite adventurous as this is the first time I'm outside with her alone. Luckily, she slept through the MRT journey. When we reached Outram Park station for the transfer, it was time for her to drink milk so I give her formula milk at one of the seats at the platform. It was very crowded as it was during the peak hour & she kept looking at the passerby. We stayed at my office for only about 30 mins and my colleague drove me to PS to meet Wilson. Since then, I have not brought her out with me alone. Maybe I shall try again, heehee.....

Our 宝贝宣慈, Baby Jez: Confinement Month

2008-12-05T21:55:00.007+08:00

Confinement Month: 28 July 2008 - 27 Aug 2008

Baby Jez needs to be fed every 2 hourly, drinking 2oz of milk each time. There are about 4 night feeds. She wears S size diapers.

Baby Jez is already a very alert baby once she's born. She will look around her environment even at the hospital the first few days. At home, when she hear the sound coming out from the TV, she will turn her head and watch TV. She likes to move her hand very much too. When she's angry or feels agitated, she will move her hands even harder. She is also quite impatient when waiting for her milk. She can really cry very loud until you become panic, very 'powderful' cries, heehee.... I still can remember the first day when we went back home, she was crying loudly and we didn't know what to do. So I took out the pacifier and put inside her mouth. Immediately, she suck the pacifier real hard & stop crying. At that time, I was thinking pacifier is a really good invention. Although some told me that it is not good to let her suck the pacifier but I think I would rather her suck the pacifier than she keep on crying. Her stomach will be bloated with air if she cries too much and that will cause even more discomfort later on. Thus, from then, we gave her the pacifier.

She passes motion regularly and jaundice is minor. Baby Jez is very scare of hot weather. If I let her sleep on her baby cot, her whole back and her hair will become very wet due to her sweat. She really perspire alot, just like her Papa. We can only let her sleep on a infant seat as the cloth has little tiny holes to air her back so that she won't perspire. Baby Jez is also very talkative. If somebody talks to her, she will also reply by 'er er er ah ah' and she really enjoy companionship. She likes people talking to her or playing with her. There was once during confinement, I heard Baby Jez laughing loudly altho' nobody is playing with her. I think she got excited while watching the TV. That's the first time I hear her laugh so loud, usually she only give a sweet smile. My father in law also heard that & both of us was quite amazed.

Labour

2008-11-30T14:16:00.011+08:00

Hospital: Gleneagles
Date of Labour: 28th July 2008, Monday
Length of Labour: 5 and a half hours
Time of Labour: 1.11pm
Baby Jez's weight at birth: 3.215kg

I went to the hospital for admission on 27th July 08 at about 830pm. Once admitted, the nurse inserted a tablet for the cervix to soften and to stimulate dilation. My cervix dilated 1.5cm when I was admitted. The next morning, the nurse woke me up at abt 530am and gave me milo and biscuits for breakfast. Then, I was given the medicine to clear my bowels. I told the nurse that I didn't feel any contractions so she did not check my cervix again and brought me to the labour room. I reach the labour room about 7am. My gynae came ard 715am. He checked that my cervix was 2cm dilated. He ruptured my waterbag which was damn painful. He told me that baby Jez actually passed motion inside the womb and he said that they will monitor closely her heartbeat. If her heartbeat is unusual, I might need to go through caesarean. Then, he gave me the drip at 730am.

Once the drip started, I can feel the contractions coming. Only then, I know what contractions mean and I realised I did experience such contractions all the while, in fact ever since I was 5 or 6 months pregnant. They called it the 'Braxton Hicks Contraction'. However, I do not know that was contraction. The feeling was that you can feel your stomach tightens and feel a little breathless. All along, I thought I have that feeling because baby is moving. Heehee....

Wilson reached the labour room about 815am. The contractions got more & more painful. The nurse examined me again at abt 930am and I was only 4cm dilated, which means 1 hr dilate 1cm. At that time, I was thinking it will mean another 6hrs to go. Then, the nurse ask me to urine as urine might prevent the cervix from dilating. Then I request for the 'laughing gas' which was supposed to help relieve the pain. I only breath in the gas twice and I felt really sleepy. I even started to snore, I hope so much that I can have a gd sleep at that time. I told Wilson I cant continue to use the gas, I will tend to slp and the gas did not really help. So for the next 1 or 2hrs, I did not use the gas at all. At 11am, my gynae came & check that I was abt 7-8cm dilated and he suggested me to take the normal pain killer injection. After the injection, I felt sleepy again and Wilson also slept in his big sofa. Then, I have the urge to push. I know that I cant push if I'm not 10cm dilated so I kept trying to control but it was really difficult.

At 1pm, my gynae came again and he said that I'm already 12 to 13cm dilated. The nurses quickly prepare everything. There are 2 nurses, one at each side. My gynae first use a vacuum before I started to push. After he gives the green light, everytime I had a contraction, they will ask me to push. The nurse will push my stomach downwards at the same time. The nurse even say: "大便，大便" to ask me to imagine that I'm shitting. Wilson also kept encouraging me to try again & again. I know I can't give up and after about 10 pushes, Baby Jez is born at 1.11pm. The pushing process was quite fast. Wilson is proud of me as I did not scream or shout for the whole of 5 to 6hrs of labour and I did not ask for epidural at all. I'm also very glad that I manage to do it without the epidural and luckily Baby Jez's heartbeat remains normal throughout.

Baby Jez opened her big eyes for the whole day, she seems to be very curious about the new world that she is seeing. At about 11 plus at night, she was still awake.

Pregnancy

2008-11-30T13:02:00.013+08:00

Date of Pregnancy Test: 21st Nov 2007
Place of test: Raffles Medical Centre at Capital Tower
Gynae: Dr Tan Han Yang
Hospital: Gleneagles Medical Centre
First visit to gyane: 24th Nov 2007
Estimated Due Date (EDD): 21st July 2008
Total weight gained: abt 15kg

Pregnancy was considered not so easy for me especially during the first 2 trimesters. During the first trimester, it was nothing but all abt vomiting, gastric problem and loss of appetite. Sometimes I vomit til I felt so weak that I lied down on the toilet floor. During the second trimester, I also encountered blackout in the train and hawker centre. It was total darkness and I could only hear zizzling sound, felt breathless but didnt faint. Only during the third trimester, my appetite becomes much better. However, I still vomit occasionally especially when I ate too full.

The worst thing that happened during my pregnancy was that I started to have excess saliva from the 2nd month onwards. I don't know where does the saliva comes from. It just keep flowing out from my mouth and I couldn't talk for more than 3 sentences. I had to spit the saliva out or else I will feel my stomach filled with gas/wind and I will end up vomiting my own saliva. There was once I was taking train and I tried to keep the saliva in my mouth cos I do not want to swallow or else I will feel like vomiting. I end up a mouthful of saliva that looks like a water balloon that's going to burst. I quickly went to the station toilet to spit it out. It was very inconvenient for me. Wilson came up with a good idea to ask me to bring a bottle with me wherever I go and spit the saliva inside the bottle. I can then wash the bottle when I manage to find a toilet. He get me a black bottle so that the saliva can't be seen. It was really a great idea. I will subtlely spit saliva inside the bottle as if I'm drinking water from it. I know it sounds disgusting and indeed it is. But no choice, there's nothing else I can do. I survive with my precious bottle until I was 7 months pregnant. Thank god it ends, I was so scared that I have to spit out my saliva even when I'm in labour.

During the last trimester, I started to have swollen feet. It was not that serious but my gynae will always give me MC if he sees my swollen feet. In total, I actually took 5 weeks of MC. Shiok right? No need work also can get salary. Heehee....

I still can remember the days counting down to my EDD. Most of the time I was at home as I was given the MC to rest. My gynae told me that I will probably give birth 1 or 2 weeks before my EDD. I got everything fully prepared, my hospital bag and the things to buy are all ready and just waiting for Baby Jez to take action. However, when my EDD was getting nearer and nearer, there was still no news from my stomach. Each day I examine closely to check if I experience any contraction but nothing happens. I think Baby Jez was really comfortable in my stomach, swimming around and forgot that she needs to come out and see the world. I started to receive calls and SMSes from friends, relatives and colleagues asking me if I have given birth. 2 days before my EDD, I visited my gynae. He still allowed me to wait for another week and see if anything happens. 1 week passed but still the same. I went back to the gynae again on 26th July 08 and he said this will be the last checkup as he will induce labour on 28th July 08.

Honeymoon to Europe, Part 4: England

2008-11-29T21:39:00.002+08:00

16th, 17th,18th & 19th July 2007: London, England
The hostel that we stayed in London was very crowded with backpackers. It is a 3 storey hostel and there is a kitchen in the first level. In the evening, the kitchen is very messy as many of them cooked their dinner there. Wilson & I oso cooked instant noodles there, we bought sausages from the supermart to go with the noodles. When everybody was done, the kitchen was as if typhoon had just swept past. It was really messy and dirty. We only cooked once and we surrendered.

Visiting Arsenal Stadium is of course Wilson's biggest, largest, greatest dream ever. This is a super Dream Come True for him. He was really excited the day when we reach London, as if he has made some great achievement. Arsenal stadium is our first priority in London. We went there the first day to buy tickets for the stadium tour on the next day. The tour includes viewing the VIP area where the big shots will be sitting to watch the match which they called the Diamond Club. The membership fee was something like 150K pound for 3 years of Diamond Club. Crazy right?

Although I do not know much about football, I was also amazed about how a football club runs when the tour guide described to us. I was also very touched and impressed with the achievements of the club when we visited the museum. Football is not just football in their country. During our visit, we saw teachers bringing students as young as 5/6 yrs old to the museum in Arsenal stadium. From very young, they were taught the values and history of football and football has engraved a profound meaning in their hearts. That is why they have developed a great passion over football irregardless of gender and age. It isn't what Singaporeans always depict football as many people chasing after 1 ball.

The trip to Arsenal stadium was very meaningful and we really hope that we can have a chance to revisit the stadium with the football match tickets on our hands (This is our next dream).

A good view of Arsenal Stadium

Buckingham Palace is another interesting place to visit. Princess Diana once stayed in this palace. The parade can be considered a great show to watch. It was a very strict and serious parade where nobody is allowed to be disrespectful. Police also ride on horses to make sure nobody tries to disrupt the parade. I can remember the horses that were led in were really beautiful and of best quality. Those horses in black had such shiny skin that it can even reflect the sunlight. You can imagine how expensive these horses are. The whole place was very very crowded with tourists and we were very short that we always have to tip-toe in order to get a good view. Sad that we didnt manage to video the horses while they were doing the parade.

Honeymoon to Europe, Part 3: France

2008-11-23T13:00:00.005+08:00

13th, 14th, 15th July 2007: Paris, France
The hostel that we stayed in was not too bad, we have our own toilet and there's even a tv in the room. However, there's no aircon again. The day we reached Paris happened to be their national day. We were considered unlucky cos the people there, esp the blacks, celebrated over night and they threw fire crackers on the street. Throughout the night, we had to tolerate with the loud bombing sound and the noise as they were shouting here & there. Obviously, we didnt have a gd slp that night.

The days when we were at Paris, the weather was extremely hot. You can feel the ground burning below your feet. However, we still walked from one place to another instead of taking the subway so that we can really have a gd view at the city. Eiffel Tower was really nice. We went in the late afternoon and there were many people lazing on the grassland beside the tower. We also followed them and waited for the lights on the tower to be lit up. Everyone cheered when the lights were on. The tower looks beautiful with the lights on and it's quite romantic with the sun about to set.

The best thing to do in Paris is of cos to visit the Disneyland. Before going to Paris, we have only been to Hong Kong Disneyland. HK Disney is really mini minor as compared to the Paris one. We had very exciting roller coaster rides. There are many different roller coaster rides and I told Wilson I wanted to complete them. It was really fun and exciting. Wilson who used to have phobia also started to enjoy the rides.

We also watched the best motor shows ever, the motorists' skills were really superb. We had to hold our breath while watching the shows. Of cos, we also saw all the Disney characters and it's really interesting to see that there are people who really resembles the characters.

Motor Show - Must Watch!

Honeymoon to Europe, Part 2: Switzerland

2008-11-22T12:08:00.002+08:00

10th, 11th & 12th July 2008: Lucerne, Switzerland
The hostel that we stayed in Lucerne is the best of all! The famous river Reuss just beside the hostel. We are lucky that the staff gave us a room with a very gd view. The famous river Reuss is just beside the hostel. From the balcony, we can see mountains & there's even a castle-look-alike building just opposite our room. When we wake up in the morning, the first thing we see is the nice scenery, hear the river water rushing down and breath in the freshest air ever. We really felt like we are in heaven, heehee....

In Lucerne, we had our first touch on snow at Mount Titlis. It was very cold but I did not bring enough winter wear so what I did was to tuck in 7 pieces of long sleeve shirt to keep warm and I really do look like a dumpling, hahaha....Wilson only wore a short sleeve t-shirt, a sweater and a jacket over. An amazing encounter was we even bumped into my friend, Ti Eu, at Mount Titlis. It's quite unbelievable to be able to see somebody you know when you are at the other side of the world. Ti Eu was alone as he went for biz trip so he joined us and we had great fun there, rolling dwn the snow slopes and throwing snowballs at each other. Thanks to Ti Eu as he helped us take alot of photos & videos there.

Our turn

We also had another expensive meal at Lucerne, the Cheese Fondue. The meal only consisted a pot of cheese, with potatoes, bread and chicken slices for us to dip. It costs us about 90 Swiss Frank which is about S$100. However, it's still worth the money.

We both love Lucerne very much. It's a very peaceful and relaxing place to stay, with nice air, clean environment and friendly people. We hope very much that we will have another chance to come back again.

Honeymoon to Europe, Part 1: Italy

2008-11-16T14:55:00.032+08:00

4th, 5th & 6th July 2007: Rome, Italy
The hostel that we stayed in Rome is considered one of the best throughout our whole trip. It's a small little hut with aircon and this is the only plc that we stayed that provide aircon. It is a very interesting plc with many many rows of small little huts, just like mini chalets. The plc is very big and even have swimming pool, pub & restaurant.

In Rome, you will be able to see historical buildings everywhere. I admire the effort spent to preserve the buildings & sculptures. Vatican City is the most grand place I've ever seen. The architectural works are superb. Another significant building is Colosseum where prisoners were forced to fight with beasts. I love Trevi Fountain, it's v romantic at nite and it's fun as we can make wishes by tossing coin into the fountain, there are certain rules to follow when tossing the coin.

7th July 2007: Florence, Italy
We stayed in a dormitory in Florence which we totally regretted. Luckily, it was only a 1 nite's stay. It is a room with 3 double decked beds and thus, we have to share the room with 4 other ppl, 2 Korean gals and 2 ang moh guys. The 2 Koreans gals were v noisy, packing things and talking non-stop, they even borrowed facial wash from me. The 2 ang mohs oso v noisy cos they snored very loudly. One of them even took off his shorts when he was going to slp, but of cos he cover himself with the blanket. I felt kind of insecured so in the end, me & wilson actually slp together in 1 single bed. Nevertheless, it was still an experience but we will never repeat it.

Florence is a relatively small town. We only spent half a day to explore the whole place. 1 day 1 nite is more than enough. We even walked all the way & climbed up to the hilltop to take a look at the michaelangelo's statue. I find Florence a very artistic place where you can see artists everywhere, even on the road.

Drop By to PISA
During our stay at Florence, we make a trip to Pisa which is just a 45 min train ride from Florence. From young, I always dream of seeing the real Pisa tower as I completed a Pisa tower jigsaw puzzle before. And my dream really comes true!

8th & 9th July 2007: Venice, Italy
The hostel that we stayed was one of the worst. There was no aircon, only a pathetic ceiling fan. It was summer and was very hot. The staff told us not to open the window as there will be many mosquitoes flying in. I was so paranoid that I sprayed my whole body and the whole room with the insect repellent as mosquitoes love my blood.

Venice isn't as romantic as we thought, partly bcoz it was very crowded with tourists. We still can remember that the ticket system for the ferry was quite stupid. After buying the tickets, we are supposed to validate it before boarding. However, bcos it was so crowded, everybody was squeezing and the staff didn't even bother to check whether we did validate the tickets. After the first trial, we decided not to validate the tickets. We hold the card confidently and pretended that we have validated the tickets with our fingers covering the area which should show the date & time if we really did validate. We managed to escape all the times. I know we were v naughty but we really saved alot of money as a single trip cost 6 Euro which is equivalent to abt S$12! Even if you take the ferry for only 1 station, abt 5 mins away, it is still 6 Euro. It was also an exciting experience, heehee....

Based on the travel booklet, we walked through all the bridges in Venice, I cant remember the total number, too many. The best thing I enjoyed in Venice was to play with the pigeons at St Mark's Square. I was scared yet tempted to get close to them. We also had one of the most expensive dinner in our whole trip in Venice which cost us abt 90 Euro or S$180. It was at a restaurant by the river and they serve REALLY GOOD pork chops (swallowing saliva). The porks chop are cooked like beef steak, you can see a little blood and it was super tender and delicious. Yummy!!! I will always remember it.

One sad thing was that when we were back in Spore, we realised many of our photos & videos taken in Venice got corrupted. Sob...

Honeymoon to Europe

2008-11-16T13:44:00.001+08:00

Our Europe trip includes visiting Rome (Italy), Florence (Italy) & Venice (Italy), Lucerne (Switzerland), Paris (France) & London (England). Our trip started from 3rd Jul 07 to 20th Jul 07, a total of 17 days.

Basically, I was the one doing all the research & planning of itinerary and booking of train/air tickets and hostels before the trip while Wilson is in charge of examining the map and bringing me to the correct places of interest while we are there, so I just have to do nothing & follow him.

This is the most memorable, expensive, furthest & longest trip we ever went. The whole trip costs about S$11,000. We saved alot of money by staying in hostels rather than hotels. As we went in summer, the hotel rates were crazy so in order not to exceed our budget, hostel is a better choice. We also brought cup noodles, milo, cereal, cream crackers, chilli & tomato sauce, forks & spoons. Wilson commented that Im very kiasu. Heehee.....I was thinking maybe we could save some money on food also.

I wonder when's the next time we can go to Europe again but really hope the next one will come.

Our Wedding Day 30th June 2007

2008-11-15T12:51:00.023+08:00

Part 1: Morning Ceremony
It was a pleasant sunny saturday. Wilson did not have a hard time going through the crashing door challenges. The only painful thing was that Ziyan pulled off his leg hair, leaving a patch of smooth & shiny skin on his leg, heeehee...... It took him about 3 months for the hair to grow back. We were lucky that Wilson's friend lent us a Rolls Royce to be our wedding car. This is our first time sitting in a Rolls Royce. I still can remember when the car passed by orchard road, many people were gazing at us. Some cars who passed by us also smiled and even waved at us, as if we are some superstars in town. It was a great experience but the car was rather uncomfortable, very bouncy cos it's quite an old model.

Part 2: Wedding Dinner
We had our ROM at the hotel before the dinner commences. Wilson was very nervous and his face was so stiff.....If you watch the video, you will noe wat I mean.... Our wedding dinner was really a great opportunity for us to meet up with our relatives and friends. I was glad that I arranged for my parents and parents-in-law to march in the long aisle with us. They were super happy and proud of themselves. It was a heartwarming moment for many of our guests. I was very touched also. Until now, I still tink dat was really a great idea of mine and we have seen people copying it.....heehee....

A Big Thank You to all my dance friends as they have put up a really great performance. I tink we all had fun and Wilson was very surprised that they actually pulled him out. I told him: 'Just sit dwn & come to me when I signal you'. Most of our guests enjoyed the performance and some still talk about it after so long.

Photoshoot in Krabi, Thailand

2008-11-09T11:59:00.006+08:00

Photoshoot at Krabi was a extremely fun yet tiring experience.

We climbed the hills and caves, played at the beach and even down into the swimming pool.
We have seen rubber trees as high as the sky, nice waterfalls, beautiful rock formation, clear water at the beach, extremely gorgeous sunset and experience the toughest underwater photoshoot. I even climbed the cave with my four inch high heels! Cant believe I managed to do that.

We were v lucky as we did not need to pay for the air tix and accomodation. Xzen was celebrating their anniversary then and we only need to buy another 10 photos to enjoy the promotion. I have already planned to buy another 10 more photos so this is not a problem to us.
I kind of regret that we did not select the underwater photos cos we gotta work within our budget. i might go back to the bridal shop to ask them sell me the soft copy, heehee....

We enjoyed the trip v much and we think that Krabi is v suitable for those who loves the nature. You can even go island-hopping and play all kinds of sea sports. Shopping was rather limited there.

Photoshoot in Singapore

2008-11-08T18:36:00.012+08:00

We took our indoor photoshoot at portsdown road. Our bridal shop rented a chalet there for studio photoshoot.

I like the place very much as the surrounding is very different from what we see around us in Singapore. We seems to have entered another country as the place is very peaceful and the air is really fresh. Studio photoshoot was not tiring at all. We did go out of the chalet for some outdoor shoots as well bcos the big trees and big patches of grass can really make a good background.

The most challenging part was to take our so-called half naked photos. I have to cover myself up in order not to expose, heehee..... What I did was to put on nipple taps n nu-bra. At first I wore a cardigan over n wait til the photographer, Edwin, is ready and with my back facing him then I took off the cardigan and threw it aside. It was fun and I'm v glad dat I did those shots as my figure is definitely not as gd as before after giving birth. Wilson is also happy that he can show off his muscle, heehee.....We feel proud of ourselves that we tried something different as nobody else around us have tried this type of shots before.

At last this is created....

2008-11-08T17:56:00.001+08:00

Has always thought of creating a blog long ago but laziness delays the action.

Finally for the sake of Baby Jez, I think I should really make an effort to create a blog and keep track of her developments so as to let her view it when she grows older.

However, before I start Baby Jez's story, let me recap on me (Jez Mama) & Wilson (Jez Papa)'s wedding & honeymoon.

A New Stage begins with our marriage.
