Something worth blogging down

Oh ya! I feel that there is some need to blog this down so that in months and years to come... I remember the great thoughts and offers by my frens

At work was especially heart warming when colleagues ask me to rest more and they offer to help me setup laptop even though the bosses ask me to do it

Then when I am replenishing paper on copier there are colleagues who offer to help

When it's raining there are alot of caring colleagues who told me to walk carefully as floor may be slippery! They keep looking back to ensure I am fine

There are times when colleagues told me to walk slower in case I tripped...

There are times when my friends offer me a ride home from BM to SK when they know ben is on reservist and they are nearby after work

Not forgettin my great brother in law Brandon who offer to ferry me to my mum place in the morning though it means taking a longer route and he sleep at least 20mins
Shorter!

It's such a great feeling to have such great friends and colleagues around me!

Thanks to them!

Week 27....

Yeah I got all the big items ready! The electric pump which I had been eyeing since Raphael was born but due to alot of reasons I didn't buy that during his time...

Even at #2 we were discussing the pros and cons of getting an electric pump and how much time it will actually takes to finish pumping and how troublesome it will be

Some say with duo electric take 30mins and some say with single take 5-10mins to empty both... Hmmmm

Nvm... I will update here in few months time how long will I take ya

Still remember I took less than 10mins to empty both? Heheee let's see!

Also got the sterilizer and I must say I am so power! Managed to buy so many bulky items and yet took a bus back!! Hahaaa

I also got the last set for both bundle deals!!! Heng man!! Toa payoff avent carnival sale I read that the deal is not as good as my Robinson rebate! Wohoooo... Heng I didn't went down leh coz too far and I lazy to wake up that early

Now into 27 weeks lor and close to 7mth pregnant Liao!!!

Soon at week 32 will see whether does the placenta move up anot!

Day 12 - Robinson sale and Halloween Party

Woke up earlier and went Robinson to buy the electric pump and sterilizer bundle deal


Been weighing the pros of getting an electric set and how long it takes to finish pumping...
Thinking of the initial first 4mths of my pumping sessions were a great pain as I experienced numbness and pain in my hands and fingers....and i even thought of giving up..now still giving me a chill when i think of the pain!!


So thinking of getting this to help the potential problems... Moreover the price I am getting is $210 after rebate!


The pump set include a UNO pump,stretch mark cream, breast shield, another item


I got the electric sterilizer too which cost around $120 which come with 2 X 125ml bottle, 1 water bottle, 1 pair of pacifier, 1 teether


I heard the price of sterilizer is a few bucks cheaper than those at carnival sale! Hahaaa

went home with my mum and i did some vacumming of the playroom and its so dusty!!! managed to vacumn the house too.... hmmm...left with mopping liao....
In the evening we went to Doris house for the Halloween party by taking bus 136.... was 3 stops away from our house!


With Raphael dressing up as James the train, one of the character in Thomas & friends!
Rayden as the pirate, Damien as the cowboy, Jorel as the knight, Dylan as the spider, Keon as the devil, Aldan as the doctor, Avril as the sailormoon, Jules as the Thomas Train, Adam as the Elf(hope i didnt missed out any one of the kids.... pregnant lady tend to be more forgetful...)
He was so into the role that when most of the kids took out their costumes, he is still wearing it and refused to take out


Raphael received alot of sweets n biscuits and of coz he enjoyed the crackers the most!


Very fruitful day indeed!

Day 11 - Biggest mistake

Morning as usual was Brandon who Ferry us to work

I just wan to blog down the one mistake I had made for this is staying overnight at my parents place

Seeing the way they let Raphael had his way, climb up n down the ladder...chair and so worried to stop him due to scared that he will cry really pissed me off

What makes things worst was unable to
Control him from running around and end up hitting the bed!

Then I feel more pressured here as I see him being more demanding here compared to when we were alone at home! I feel like taking a cab home at 1130pm!!!

Straight away I told my mum if she continue to indulge him I take a cab back now!
It's freaking me out! Instead of me being able to rest, end up I am more tired here!!!

What worst was at 1am my mum woke me up so that she can accessed phael (we were sleeping side by side ) n changed Raphael diaper and nite feed him!!! Omg didn't I tell her no need to feed milk? And didn't she change diaper at 11pm just now??????

I was so pissed as I had a hard time falling Aslp just now and make things worst, I can't get back to sleep now!!!

Originally had plan to stay overnight maybe one or Two times next week but accessing this, taking cab home would give me More time and less stress!

I wonder wat time will I get back to sleep now...

Haiz after 2 days... Feel that I was abit worked up on this ah

Maybe pregnancy hormones!

Day 10 - Brandon Car Again!!

Yeah.... happily counting down to Benji's return... now no mood to work as boss give me a spreadsheet to fill in the blank for the stock code..si bei sian...


see stars liao...


Last night Lai Ping sms me to borrow the pupsik pouch and i told her she can have one of them if MIL able to get used to using it..coz i plan to get another new design which I had been eyeing for long time..but no reasons to get another one as I had 3!!!


Morning Brandon told me MIL demanded to get an armchair to feed Caleb milk...which he flatly rejected...err...honestly I find that its abit funny to request for a armchair since can always use pillow to feed and not as if take very long to feed Caleb ba... but is their own "problems" they should settle it lar.. hahaaa


The sling was also requested by MIL as she say she cannot carry Caleb without any help!! hahaa


Brandon told me it had been a week since he last see Caleb as almost daily he went home pretty late and go straight to bed.. hahahaaa...too much entertainment upon returning back to SG and is his birthday month... so good...can go so many FOC dinner..heard he going clubbing this friday!!


This morning super sway... I got out of house super early..thinkin to slowly stroll to the bus stop... haiz...little did i know a small accident is awaiting me.. Just when I finished crossing that zebra crossing and went on to the stairs which will lead to the bridge...


suddenly went off balance and fall in front... luckily was fast enough to use hand to support the floor preventing any injuries to the face and tummy..but my poor knee..got a cut and now abit swollen :(


I dunno why lar... not walking fast leh..maybe miss a step or just too blur... haiz..must be more careful liao...cannot imagine if this happen when I am carrying Raphael... sob

Nite time was a mad rush to paragon from work as I need to buy Raphael Halloween outfit from Toy R Us... keep in tune for the actual outfit..will reveal soon

Week 26 - More movements!

Been feeling more and more kicks and movement from the baby!! Sometimes it could be a strong movement and at times it feel so so itchy!!

The tummy is getting bigger too daily and I am religiously applying the stretch mark cream!

Been experiencing heartburn on and off too..sian!

Browhaus Package!

Well...got myself an "Extension" to the package which had been used up.... managed to secure a deal whereby 6 sessions cost me around 118, average around 19+ for eyebrow tweezing and upper lip treatment...


Somehow I feel it is important to keep my eyebrow in shape as it does makes alot of difference lor...esp when i do not do makeup...


got this eyelash+eyebrow strengtener and growth enhance serum.... to try lar...
seems to be a good product...











Remember the Biospa hair treatment package I took up and got free hair mask to DIY at home..last nite i waited till Raphael fell aslp at around 12am!! Then went to take a long bath followed by the hair treatment..must comment that the hair mask is damn good! my hair become silky smooth and upon rinsing, wah...sooo silky!!! the smell is great...but is abit exp for a pkt which cost $60 for 2 treatment... if ask me to buy I sure will not get it... LOL

oh ya...running out of eyecream liao...maybe need to get one reputable brand to try again...How about SKII? let me go google...

Day 9 - Brandon car

He told me that they be bringing Caleb to malacca + KL trip next thurs till Sunday! Wah! Driving up with another family wor!


Must say that they are adventurous to drive up with a 3mths old kid


Anyway it's easier to do it now as baby still small Ba


Went to Browhaus  to trim my eyebrow and managed to reached on time at 10am!! Sign another 5+1 session with them and went to ELM to get some books for Raphael.

Went to JG with my mum and we took turns to go in


Today when the teacher was displaying his namecard n Raphael went up to collect... 吴老师 ask him 你叫什么名? Raphael looks at his red polo tee and replied 我是红色的thomas!!!


Then 吴老师 ask again and he replied 我是thomas!!! Make the whole class laugh loudly!!

Then as Alexis was having stomach flu , another english teacher came to relief her...Raphael keep asking me what happen to Alexis? I told him stomache, at home sick.. He repeat and repeatedly ask me where is ALexis... my boy is full of QUERIES!!!

After this we went to my Grandpa place and sit sit, cab fare around $6+... he enjoyed himself with Grand Uncle and Grand Grandpa ...

Grand Uncle bring him to buy ice cream and Grand Aunty buy him 3 pkts of Yakult... Really very thoughtful of her to bring them all the way from Jurong leh... =X

then followed by going back to Sengkang to pack my gear for going MIL place..

So touched wor...so many of them offering me a ride..from Brandon to Yvonne to FIL... hehee...becoz i was busy packing my bag and settling the "Goofy Baby who poo"...had several missed calls...and after clearing up our new "Goofy baby"... Raphael called himself Goofy after we watched youtube on this and say he also poo and very smelly like Goofy...



Then as we were to set off to hitch a ride from Yvonne, I told Phael that Ian, Yvette, Caleb be there to play with him..


Guess what he asked me next.. "Matthias LEH?" I was like "huh" he repeat and ask me Matthias?


Oh he actually can remember Matthias!! hahaa... I told him nono...Matthias not going...On the car he keep asking Yvonne where is Matthias..hahaa...and he actually told us that he do not wan to go Nai Nai House and want go Godma house to play instead...


Told him next round lar..
When we reached MIL place, happened that all pple reached at once, the aunties, brandon, LP and Caleb and us!!

Big gathering..a pity Benji not ard.. :(


So the kids went up and played happily and I can see raphael n yvette getting along very very well... Raphael tell yvette he want to "fish" and started singing "1 2 3 4 5, thats when i caught a fish alive.."


then he took Caleb playpen "rod" and say its his fishing rod and start to fish in Caleb playpen...its very funny to see them doing such thing...

then the next Caleb shit so much that overflow and keep dripping out... Wah the mat was stained and I see the poo dripping out lor then

Raphael so excited seeing the commotion and say Wah Caleb pang sai!!! Yvette also another one, stand outside both very excited leh!!

Then when Brandon cleaning him up Caleb poo even more... SI bei scary!

Raphael keep standing there to see!!! MIL bring Caleb to go bathe and phael insist to stand outside the bathroom to see ...lol.. so funny...

Oh ya...another great news is Brandon told me since I am leaving house about the same time as him and since he also be travelling to work..he can make a detour to ferry me n drop me at BM!

YIPPIE! hurray! then i have lesser stress of not able to catch a cab lor!!
Must give him a treat when Benji is back... since got some "budget" for the transport!

At night when we reached home... we bathe together at the common toilet as he seems to prefer bathing there as more spacious ba...

Then I noticed him talking to the toys.. "Fish leh? Orrr... its under the chair" etc...

His fav was milo lar...then i saw the milo left abit mah...and finished it up...next moment he ran over and cry loudly and question me why i finished up ALL HIS MILO!!! OMG!!!

I merely took the last sip! and he so worked up..end up got another new pkt for him....

I told him nah today is weekend and I don't work on weekend

Guess what he says next... Mummy 不要做功,去看doctor!!
Heheee... Then we played awhile then starts to get ready to take LRT...

Journey from Sengkang to Vivo took around 30mins and we had fun wor
When we reached vivo, we walk about firstly searching for Disney playhouse magazine which is giving away stamps to chop chop

Then we walk about and Raphael demanded curry pok and we bought 2!!

He told me he want to go walk walk and we went up to foodcourt to get some finger food for myself

The haze was real bad and he told me he want to go outdoor... Bad move the outdoor was so warm n hot ...but we managed to go Daiso and bought a pumpkin bag for $2! Heheee

Heartburn on 2 consecutive days

Been having this heartburn since 21-oct till 22-oct... haiz...not a good feeling to have... feel so miserable...and tired...

Overall feel myself healthier as I walked alot these few days but my muscles are aching away...guess I am no longer young too... =D

Endure endure....15weeks to go!! I am @ week 25 now...going into week 26 lor!! yeah!

Weighing at 69.5kg!!

Day 4 - MC, no work...

After 3 days of tiredness and on top of the bad haze... I realised my runny nose and cough got worst with blood found in the phelgm...

Time to see doctor when i see more fresh blood... haiz....

Its a tiring day... although no work, but taking care of this little active monster alone at home is no joke... We went to Compasspoint to tabao lunch + dinner back home...on the way back went to buy 2 slices of cake from emicakes as dessert...then off we go back home... Though a very short trip out..but it got me panting away... he is too heavy...
We went most of our time playing and reading stories and singing song....

In the afternoon, he was suddenly shouting out while staring outside the window "Daddy 为什么你跑不见掉。。你去了哪里?  快点回来跟我玩 James, Stanley, Ah Pek (Thomas) Ah Gong (Percy)"

A very short questions thrown but full of meaning... I guess he missed Daddy as much as I do... COuntdown to another 14 days to Daddy return... ;(

Now he is finally aslp! Do you know he called me "naughty girl"??? I am surprised that he can differentiate between girl and boy! Also, he remembers his 2nd slice of cake sitting in the fridge and keep pestering me to go get it for him..this boy...very good memory indeed....

MRT from SK to BM in the morning!

This is the first time I am taking LRT-MRT-Bus from sengkang to Bukit merah in the early wee hour with Raphael!

Not sure why but I feel so sad when he left us outside the departure gate and I started to feel so so sad...even up to now, i still feel very very upset when Raphael mentioned that Daddy went to be a soldier...


This afternoon, I asked phael to go compasspoint to shop...and guess what...he says 等Daddy 回来带我们一起出去。。。


Then we played alot today and I read a couple of fairy tales for him...then at nite he suddenly say he is making a house for the bird..and he dunno how to make it...Ah Phael不会做等 Daddy 回来做!!

Heartburn @ 12-Oct, week 24

Aiyo..somehow been quite lucky that this #2 nt giving me much problems beside the low placenta issues...

No more MS after 1st Trim end and no other tough stuffs..just heartburn on n off..and seldom happen...

when it happens I just feel throat to chest area super spicy... hehee...

Just wan to note down this small heartburn event... =)

Priority Seats

Somehow I find that most pregnant ladies seems to take for granted that they should be offered a seat in MRT/buses...

If people are sitting in reserved seats and do not give up to them, they will feel that they are wrong...kick a big fuss over it...take picture post to STOMP etc...

Are they really wrong?

I would think that if we really need to sit down, we should asked for it and not stand there wait for pple to offer us. OPEN YOUR MOUTH TO ASK

if they don't give up without asking, they are not in the wrong too...maybe they are really asleep?
Its just a moral issue and not a complusory Must to give up ba

Would think this is a constant debate on whether to give up or not... To me if I managed to secure a seat is a bonus...if not..then bo bian lor..just stand...anyway we paid the same fare on transport..what gives me the special privilege that I must have a seat?

But so far been very very lucky that most people when seeing me will kindly offer me their seat...even if they dont, i also dun care leh...

Week 24

Was on MC for 2 days last weeks... having runny nose and sneezing non stop..
seems like my pregnancy hormones had changed and feel so warm nowadays.......

Even this morning at my mum place..I had on the fan and yet still feel so bek chek and hot... haiz!

At night also cant get to sleep coz no matter which position am i lying on...sooooo uncomfortable...

I dare not weigh myself for past few days..knowing I shld have gained alot...sian... this weekend going to see gynae again... wonder my weight gain issit beri scary...haiz

Irritating Issues

Money had always been a vexing and irritating issues of my family...somehow my family like to say they wan to take out their AIA money so that can tide over the bumpy period (when in fact every day and months to them is bumpy)..

Even if they took out 5k now, it will be gone within 1-2months based on my observations... So what it the point of trying to resolved the issues temporarily and draining the many years of savings?

No idea... I am not sure are they trying to hint me to contribute more and I had openly told them sorry, this is the max max I can contribute to the family..anything  more... I rather quit my job and be a SAHM... save all the nonsenses and shit I am getting...

Even now staying longer at my parents' place is such a problematic issues when they start to talk about money... I do not understand why is 4D such a important thing to them..to them, don't buy may lose the opportunity to lose the chance to strike..

But they forget the probality to lose is even higher... So if they are spending so much to bet and gamble,...WHY SHOULD I help? I have my own stuffs to buy and splurge on,...rather than lend them to gamble..to buy more 4D hoping to win...

I want to indulge and there is nothing wrong since I didnt steal or cheat...my own hard earned money... I spend it in whatever ways I like... Its damn irritating...

Please go take out your money if you want and stop harping on this issues... I hate to hear this...stop giving me the pressure... Seems like whole family want to take out money from AIA...please go ahead... and return me whatever u owe me...

Frustrating to hear them keep repeating want take out and yet for MONTHS no action been done...

Jeff Chang Concert!!!

Finally went to his concert @ 22 weeks pregnant! hahaaaa..despite alot of unhappiness arising from the arrangement of the trip , it went ahead considered smoothly...

It was like more than 15 years since I started to listen to Jeff Chang's songs and I must comment that his looks improved and songs get more power as years went by...

Was super amazed by the crowds from his fans in Genting! Fully sold!!! It wasnt a fake sign to show pple that the concert was a success..Indeed it was a great success...looking around the Arena of Stars, the place are fully taken up by anxious fans like me!

A disappointment was that they didnt sell his latest album during the concert! haiz!

More pictures to be up!! KIV
