Baby's 5-in-1 3rd Jab + Hep B 2nd Jab

Today isn't my day.. Mummy took a day off as Baobei's school is closed for staff training. So thought can also bring baby for his follow-up jab, then meet my kaki for lunch, and last stop is to go ICA to collect passport..

First, there is a heavy downpour early in the morning. Then follow by, baobei is down with fever.... Sigh.. how to go out like that. So as time goes, by noon the rain has stopped. So mummy thought, ok we can still proceed with the jab then to ICA...

Who knows, baobei fever shot up to 39.4 when we reached the clinic. And Doctor also found some red spot in her mouth, and suspect it could be HFMD. Which means to stay home for the next 3 days... How to??? We have a back-to-back pre-arranged appointments already.. So mummy told Dr Ivan to give her a dosage of Paracetamol & Bhrufen just to bring down the temperature. Poor girl, her whole body is shivering in cold. Can see the pale face..

Now is baby's turn... Dr Ivan did a check on him.. He is now 62cm tall, weight 6.9kg. When ly on back, he can easily pull up baby without him using much strength. So Dr suggest us to practise some motor skills with him daily. To sit with support, To stand on legs, To ly him on tummy... This will help to build up his spinal strength..

Is the Jab's time.. Baby is on mummy lap so when dr ask mummy to hold his hand.. Baby immediately sense something is not right and start crying even the needle hasn't poked into his thigh... Dr is fast, he quickly distracted him, and give him the poke... hahaha... this time round baby only cries for a short while, just less then 2mins he quiet time... Guess he knows that is over...

Baobei's Eye Check -3rd Visit

Today is the 3rd visit to Eagle Eye, as Baobei will need to rush off to catch 1pm "Toy Story 3" show at vivocity, mummy pre-informed the receptionist so as they are able to squeeze in our Queue and not waiting for too long..

About 45mins later, the optometrist call for us, after doing the prelimary check, she said there will be a need to drop eyedrops for dilation to check if her eyesight have gotten any better since the putting on off glasses and eye patch. Baobei is very coorperative when she put the eyedrop.. After waited for about 30mins, the optometrist did another check and from her, her review sound so pessimistics.

Anyway, we still need to wait for our appointed specialist, Dr Lim. Ahhh har.. his review is much more better. He said baobei's long-sightedness on her right eye has improved quite a lot. From the 2nd review, 6/21 down to 6/12. But for her left eye it has slightly worsen alittle, from 6/6 to 6/7.5. He is happy that her right eye is responding well, and hopefully by the next appt, the eyesight will improve even more....

Due to that, we need to change the lens of the glasses so as to further enforce the eye to see..

Yipee it is indeed a good news.

Mummy's little helper

Today after we have came home from school, is time baby wants his milk. Mummy took out the bottle of mik from the kitchen and going to give it to him..

Baobei all sudden said, mummy let me feed him. And I more than happy to let her help, well.. for other people they may worry this, worry that. To me, if i dont let her do it, how would i know she really can't do it.

So i carefully placed baby into baobei's arm... helped her to open the cover of the bottle... place the hanky underneathe

A Nice Evening Outing @ Marina Barrage

AFter Baobei's artclass, we decided to go Marina Barrage for a short walk.. Also because, we have never been there.. Hahaha.. alittle mountain tortotise isn't it?...

Anyway we made our way there, and baobei is so excited about the kites.. But this place is too crowded.. everywhere is people, everywhere is kites...

Baby initially was sleeping in his stroller, but due to the hot hot weather, he woke up just after 15mins of nap..

Just within 30mins, we completed the tour of Marina Barrage. As time is approaching 6pm, we decided to have an early dinner just to avoid the crowd later on. Yes, we have the Hainanese Chicken Rice which used to be located a 7th Storey @ Bugis. The waitress asked if we wanted to have steamboat, but need to be outside of the restaurant.. HAhaha our answers. NO... we prefer to take ala-carte menu.

Mummy & Darlings @ The Pinnacles, Duxton

Mmmy has bought a second hand breastpump from one of the aunties selling in the forum.. Happen that this aunty is just staying at the Pinnacles.

She is such a nice lady, without asking, she actually offered us her residents' card for mummy to bring baobei to the sky bridge. Else mummy will have to pay $5 per pax.

Baobei is so excited about it, as this is her first time travelling up to 50th storey.. Weather is hot & sunny as it is just past noon... We quickly took a few shots and leave...

After collection, we left to Raffles City.. now is the GSS period, the mall is so packed with crowd.. hardly can shop around as mummy carrier baby and baobei is in the stroller... We had a really early dinner at Shokudo JApanese Food Bazaar.. A nice place for family... As there is a small corner with kids mini playground, and well that is good enough to keep our little princess occupy.

Baobei downs with cough..

Baobei has been coughing with phelgm for the past 3 days... as usual mummy doesn't like to give her prescribed medication so as to allow her body to build her immune system.

Previously when baby is also coughing, popo got this "chinese medic" from the medical hall.. According to the chinese physician, this is very good for phelgm..

True enough, after just 2 dosages baobei cough less.. con't on for another 3 days.. Phelgm is gone.. Whether believe it or not, sometimes chinese medicine just work wonders.... And this bottle just cost not more than $6, can be found in those medical hall..

Baobei starts her weekly arts class

Given a choice between learning piano and learning arts.. Baobei choose drawing as her weekend extra activities.

Mummy found a class held in the neighbouring community centre. it will be a 1.5hrs weekly program. After signing up, daddy brought her to the Popular bookstore and bought her all the basic colouring materials. ie: drawing block, 24-colours crayon...

Few days before this actual day, baobei is so excited about it, and she is looking forward to it..

We were early and outside the classroom waiting for the teacher to come.. Seem like there are quite a number of kids enrolling... And it does.. The whole class comprises of 1-teacher with almost 30 children.

As this is Baobei's first class, the teacher allow parents to stay in.. So DAddy, mummy & Baby stayed with her thru out.. And mummy the "helper", helps her to get the hang of outlining, colouring with crayons and finally finish off with water colour.

Family BBQ Gathering @ Jiujiu's house

Jiujiu & Jiuma have officially moved into their new house locating in Yishun..

Though the place is not very accessible, well that their choice.

They have organised a family BBQ together with the grandparents, Da-gu & family, and of course our family as well..

Don't ask me why not many photos are taken and only few of us are in the pix... Cos baobei is the photographer on that evening... This is also Baby's 1st BBQ and stayout after sunset.. Not a good experience though, as he is already very tired with not much nap during the day, weather is hot that night... plus there's 2 little monster jiejie running, screaming around... hahahhaha.. how to sleep????.....

That night is a terror for mummy, think baby has been over-stimulated or perhaps got frightened.. At midnight he was crying, screaming... as usual daddy will never bother to wake up and try to coax him.. Thank goodness popo is always around, and we gave him "Jin Feng San" to soothe him...

Baby's 5-in-1 2nd Jab

one month has past, is time for baby's 2nd jab... Today is very special, because both daddy & jiejie are around as well... 1 day before the jab, mummy made some american ginseng water for him, according to what we heard this will help to prevent baby to develop fever after the jab... How true??? No idea... *touchwood* so far it works... Mummy is alittle KS, not only giving 1 feed of the water, she made another feed for him just before the jab.

Baby is now 61cm, weighing 6.+kg.. it is daddy whom follow thru all the checks, that's why mummy never take note of it, will check it out during our next visit. As you can see, baby isn't really happy about it, hahahaha think he knows he got to get poked by dr Ong again..
