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
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
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
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.

(I love to see the way she yawns)
