date: Sunday, November 16, 2008 time : 3:24 PM Bathing Time for Aisleyne + A visit to Marina Barrage Amabel is down with flu and cough for the past few days. Never bring her to the PD, not because we want to save on the exp bill, usually we don't send her to the clinic unless she starts getting more worst. Glad that her body handle it pretty well and baby Aisleyne never caught the bug so far. We just don't feel comfortable feeding too much med to children esp baby. Aisleyne is down with flu when she is less than 1 month old. Mil asked me to bring her to see PD since she is still so small but I didn't. As long as there is no fever develop and the flu is not really that bad till blocked nose, we will just let her body fight with the virus rather than getting the med/drug to do the job. We are trying to build up her immunity with caution. And yah think is the breastmilk do the wonder. She recovered herself not long after. Baby Amabel never ever develops fever after any of her vaccinations, so my house always got a lot of unopened paracetamol and end up I throwing it away and only keeps the recent one bottle for standby in case having fever. So far baby Aisleyne never develops any fever after vaccination too hope she won't get the fever for the next few jabs too. She will be going to have her next 6-in 1 jab next month. Eager to know her weight but I know she is growing very well every time I loosen her anklet. Yesterday baby Aisleyne turns 3 month. Really thanks her for always making me smile for the past 3 months when I feel down. Her head is very stable now and have been sleeping through since 2 month old and stay awake more during the day. So yesterday hubby not working OT, he brought us to Marine Barrage. Glad that it is a cloudy and windy day and made our trip a presence one. Before headed to there, we went to Old airport road, wanna have the famous TPY rojak but suay the stall did not open. And we had wanton mee instead. Hubby said will go next friday then. Yeah!! He always bring me to have famous, nice and yummy food around Singapore. Now I think of those delicious food and it made me drooling. Pic taken on 15 Nov 08 We trying to self take the photos with 4 of us squeeze in but it turn out to be like this for the first take. We couldn't stop laughing at it, cause Amabel turns out to be hiding behind our heads. Pram + baby carrier + sling pouch + fridge-to-go + giant diaper bag; that is what we must bring when we are out now. Grouchy Da A needs to have a milk feed now + a blankie. This Daddy girl insisted her Dad to feed her. Under the table... Way to the car and back home before the rain came Once we got back in the evening, Mommy chose to do a quick shower for baby Aisleyne instead of the usual sponge clean at night cause she was a bit sticky. Mommy has been the one shower for baby Aisleyne for the past 2 months and the helper will be standing beside to see how the mommy does it. Mommy will be like parrot keeps explaining what to do and what not to. What precautions and safety need to be taken; like water temperature, the way to carry baby esp when their head is still not stable etc What to take notes with care especially when washing the head need to be very soft and gentle cause there is two fontanelle (The anterior fontanel - on the top of the head and the posterior fontanel, toward the back of the head), and also when cleaning the labia that need extra care What to use and what not to use like for cleaning tongue and eyes got to use sterilise gauze and cotton ball. Got to alway do step by step, every step is important. Most important make a shower time a happy one to Aisleyne, never ever frighten her. Keep talking to her and tell her what you gonna to do next. Mommy keep reminding the helper once and once again everything before she decided to let the helper hand-on last week. And Mommy awarded the helper a "Pass" haha So for the past 2 months, Mommy only get to sleep after 2am after her usual manufacturing of milk. That is also the only time where Mommy got some free time blogging, surfing blog of friends after both A get to their slumberland. The next day, Mommy will be waken by the helper to bath for Aisleyne @ 9.15am after she brush her teeth. Mommy got to bear with the engorgement pain and bath for Aisleyne first before she get to pump milk again. Here it is, lucky my helper never video my face too much if pardon me for the shaggy face w/o makeup. Hope I won't scare anyone off. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 So yesterday Mommy wanna video it down again cause in another few days time, she won't be able to shower for baby Aisleyne every days. Sob sob.... Aisleyne is a bit fussy cause is time to have her milk feed. Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5 Part 6 Me camwhoring again. hehe... Labels: babycare, My Gallery, My Video 8 Comments:

wow... I cant imagine me showering for my baby after he is born. Donno whether i can did a good job just like you. I attend the TMC prenatal course also got teach bathing baby but not yet handon. And hor TMC taught us to remove the clothes and diaper first before washing the hair and body leh i think. Do I remember correctly? Now suddenly like forget abit of the steps liao.
Joanne
eh... I got one friend told me the same thing over msn. Haha~
Actually both way are ok as long as the baby never get cold can liao. And yes TMC teach the method of removing everything and wrap the baby up first. That is what i learnt during TMC prenatal course also but I change abit after my experience with showering Amabel (my elder girl). I don't want to remove everything and wrap her up with cloth then in the end when i shower her hair, she shit or urine and mess the whole cloth or even the floor and my clothes when I washing her hair mah, so I change the way and I prefer my changed version.
