Back to work - 11/3/2015

吓！你今日返工咩？無人同我講。

Resuming work makes me a better mom before and after work. I enjoyed the quality time with my baby! 

Due to the weather change, her ezcema has been more serious. A little play and diaper change before I left home. 

It's also the fourth day following Gina ford's schedule, she has successfully increased milk intake during the day. Of course, patient Tine Tine is also the one to help facilitating this. 

肥美

Those cute and chubby legs!! 

IP camera

I always forgot to check megan on IP camera during work hours. I mainly used the camera when she's sleeping. Perfect when we need to close the door to lower the noise outside. 

It's completely dark when we put up Gro Anywhere Blackout Blind. 

I am a mom!

I dressed up nicely for work and I had my leather jacket on today. When I almost arrived the office this morning, I was searching for my phone in my jacket pockets. I laughed out loud when I found that I got a baby handkerchief in my left pocket!! 

Megan's laisee on her first CNY

Quite a big pile of money. Thank you for the uncles and aunties

Size matters

I cannot stop laughing when the waiter delivered the tea set to Ah Lun. It's super tiny for his appetite, and it's so small that he could swallow the udon in one go. 

His comment was 唔食好過食

Having a tea time on the last day of my maternity leave

Milestone // rolling over on her own

On the day before her 5m birthday, she suddenly rolled over on her own without our assistance. She's picking up her clothes near her knees and then flipped herself. Tin tin and I were super excited to witness this. She's quite calmed after doing this, haha. 

On the next two days, she did not do this again, and I am wondering if she has changed to other clothes which are more loosely fit. But she's practicing to move up her butt which may paved ways for crawling. 

Megan gave us a surprise on March 6th. 

Video recorded in instagram. 

Same pose

Not a staged photo, captured by Ah Lun

Megan just woke up having her hands exactly the same as her toy, mousse 

Milestone // no more swaddling

It was a painful experience to stop swaddling her. She kept rubbing her face and scalp which will intensify the eczema.  On the other hand, she could not sleep without swaddling. Such a dilemma which annoyed us so much. 

Taking advices from friends like Donna and my boss, we have to stop swaddling her. I free her hands on 28 feb evening and it's a successful attempt though I woke up literally every hour in the mid night. She started to learn sleeping without the receiving blanket so her sleep was too shallow. Megan's situation was even worse because she has colic at around 3am. 

Currently we still wrap her legs as her kicks kept her awake. After she's completely happy with her hands out, we will get rid of wrapping her legs. 

We finally bought a toy to look after megan. This is a mouse. I asked Ah Lun, what's her name. He just got a perfect name in less than 5 seconds. She's called mousse, chocolate mousse. How funny! Like the whole idea of typo behind the toy's name. 

Woke up and playing with mousse and she dropped it over her face. So cute. 

CNY 2015 - meeting with BFF

That's the first time for me to bring megan out this far on my own. I know it won't be a short meeting so I have to come with baby stroller in case megan is tired. On the other hand, baby stroller is only good when you have a car or your final destination is very close by the train station. 

What an adventure for a new mom, especially when megan couldn't sleep well and eat well recently. She became very grumpy after she's out. It's because she's so excited about the surroundings which makes her so tired. Poor baby! 

On the way back, I decided to take the train as I always like to train up myself handling baby on my own. It's interesting that I will need to find a new way of living because I was constantly looking for a lift. However it's always a much longer way to use the lift. We always hate to be slow, but I have no choice now. When megan is older with a strong body control ability, I will definitely use baby carrier more. 

Get ready! On my own to complete everything as Tin Tin is on leave and Ah Lun is working this Sunday 

Snooze for a short time in mama's arms. The 19 new faces and noises keeping her too tired. 

First time getting laisee. Honestly she must be scared as so many people surrounded her haha

Encounter with Karena

Taking photo on stage! The group is getting too big now.
