Stop pumping :(
My milk supply has dropped drastically and everyday the amount that I managed to pump is less than 40ml . Pathetic, I know.
Therefore, since she turning to 8th month this week. I'm going to keep my pump tools when she just reaches this milestone. I decided to stop as she already taking more solids and the amount of milk intake has drop. Although somehow, I couldn't bear to give up pumping breastmilk and let it go easily. Breastfeeding is a process that I had putting so much effort, with many sleepless nights. I took it to heart that this milk given to her was so divine and precious. I treasure the moments when she and I need to practice on latching. When she could latched properly and fall safely in my arms and body, the bonding I have with her was truly heartwarming. It was a short period, I'm thankful to been thru this wonderful and amazing experience.

Welcome 2011
Long long time, my dear blog. Ever since Xiaoxian was born, my life has been circling around her. I can still remember clearly on the events before her delivery. Her 4 months milestone is reaching next week. She will take another round of vaccine. I always look forward to visit PD for her vaccination, cos get to measure her height and weight. Knowing how her growth progress like.
I had made my commitment for her to be a stay-at-home-mum looking after her at least for year, watching her growing up. It was a decision that compromised Tiong-san and me after much consideration on the options we had and concluded this was the best for her.
I'm thinking how many co. are really understanding to allow their employees to take long leave to look after their families? To most people which is more important? Family or work?
Budget 2011, what do u think? does it brings some good news to you? I hope for the next budget, it came focus more on middle income household as majority of us come from this sector. As the inflation goes up, prices go up n same is COE, it tougher to sustain a family expense with the minimal increment in the income. Other than pinning hope on the Budget, what else can a normal citzen do to lead a comfortable life without feeling the pinch in the pocket?

New milestone from 25 Oct
Last Friday seen Dr SF Loh, as usual waited almost 3 hrs to see his face again. For the short 10-15 mins consultation, we booked a slot on 25 Oct for C-sect and weighed her thru ultrasound.
She weighs about 2.3kg in my 34th week. Nice size. :) About less than a month as we counting down, will be her arrival to our world.

Her movements are stronger these days!
I dunno if it is space limitation now or she is growing much bigger. Her kicks and punches are stronger than before.
I just watched a DVD from Nat Geo "in the womb", explaining each preganancy week progress. How I wish the foetus that grows is her. How come we dun have 4-D image scan? Then we can really see the whole face of her.
By wednesday, I hope I know what's her current weight and her progress. My anxiety to see her face to face is stronger. But I still have 2 months to go thru....Hope time flies faster.

Embark to 3rd trimester
Reaches to the 28th week milestone meant so much to me. Marching into 3rd trimester is a step closer to welcome her arrival. Yet, there are still a lot of preparation work has yet to do. :P her room has yet to tidy up.
Her cabinet has not purchase but lucky we have one in mind. We still couldn't decide the pram we want to get. Lucky other big item such as baby cot, my sister is willing to lend to me. Though these are the outstanding items, but her stuff is accumulating every week and stack up on the floor unorganise. I have storage problems to keep all these items...... haizz...
