Into the 4th Month

4mths

Learning to lift my head up and turning over…

4mths2

Yippee! I can turn over and lift myself up!

Falling sick…

During the 3rd month, Mummy brought me to Dr. Y Y Yip for my vaccination. I have 2 injections that day… One on the left thigh and another on the right. I was given the 5-in-1, Pneumococcal vaccination and Rotavirus vaccine (which is taken orally). I was a bit feverish after the vaccination and that was the first time I’m sick (9 May 2008). Mummy felt so bad that she allowed the doctor to give me so many vaccine on the same day and she was even reprimanded by my 外婆.

Oh… I didn’t cry when I had the 5-in-1 jab, it’s the Pneumococcal jab that was painful and I can’t help but to let out a cry! I’m quite a strong girl huh!

My feverish look…

I fell sick again on 5 June 2008. First time I’m down with flu… I felt horrible… 2 days later, I got high fever of 39 Degree Celsius… Daddy & Mummy quickly brought me to Thompson Medical to see doctor. I slowly recovered and I fought the first time against flu virus!

(Mummy: You are a conqueror!!!)

The First Few Months

B4 mummy went back to work

Pictures taken when I’m into my 2nd and 3rd month before Mummy went back to work.

2-4mth

Mummy went back to work just before I turn 3 months old. And she took pictures of me waiting for her to get ready to go to 外婆house while Mummy goes to work. So this form my daily weekday routine… Mummy will send me to 外婆 house before she goes to work and will pick me up with Daddy to go back our Punggol house after work. I travelled everywhere in taxi! I think I have just contributed to the income growth of taxi driver.

The First Month

The first month is a challenge to all of us – Daddy, Mummy & Me…

I have to learn how to adapt to a totally new environment. I sleep pretty well in the day but I just don’t want to go to bed at night… I want to be carried!!! And that’s a nightmare to Mummy… keke… But it’s definitely more fun to be out here in the world than just inside the tummy… I just have to learn to differentiate between day and night.

First mth at home

See! It’s very pinky!!! Just like Mummy!!! Oh… the bean sprout pillows are handmade by my 外婆! It’s a whole filled with love!!! :)

Full Mth

And finally my Full Month celebration! Mummy can’t bear to shave all my hair off… so I had a simple trim for customary sake.

Jaundice Experience

The pediatrician told Mummy I was slightly yellow but they still allow me to go home as it was not so serious.

However, when I went back for check up the following Monday, Dr. Terence Tan said that the jaundice level is on the high side and he gave Daddy Mummy the option of renting the “Phototherapy” machine home instead of hospitalization.

I am supposed to be in this “Phototherapy” machine all the time except for bathing and feeding…

I cried the moment I have to be put in that machine because I feel uncomfortable and insecure. Every time I cried, Mummy cried as well… It was not fun at all…

Thank God, my jaundice cleared after 2 days in that yucky machine and I can get back to my favorite rocker again!!!

 Jaundice

Have to wear the space suit in phototherapy machine.

Coming Home for the 1st Time

Home Day 1

I came back home on the 6 February 2008. The eve of Chinese New Year! My maternal granny put me in my first rocker and has been my favorite ever since then… Thanks to Auntie Zhiping, Auntie Xiaowei & Auntie Wanling!
