Hairee's got acne...

... and lots of it! They just sprout on his face all of a sudden, kesian sangat tengok dia. There's even some crusty yellow bits on his eyebrows!!

But with all of that Hairee doesn't seem to mind at all, sigh... bless!

Hairee's first visitors

The past week, the weather has been glorious! Unfortunately, I don't really get to enjoy it much since I'm still sticking to my pantang commitment. Hairee's doing really well - he's now 3.5kg and we can see his legs and arms getting 'plumpier'. His feeding is also more regular and predictable and breastfeeding has improved much for me too.

Although I didn't get to go out, we were lucky to have guests coming to visit Hairee and me. A big thank you shout-out to them for the lovely gifts for Hairee (and for Haidan too!).

My pantang so far

It has been just after 10 days since I gave birth to Hairee and Alhamdulillah, I am recovering really well. As compared to the pantang I had with Haidan (which was really stressful!), I felt like I'm 80% normal. Mostly is just the tiredness of getting up at 12am and 3am for Hairee's feed and nappy change but other than that I'm feeling allright. I do need more time to heal (especially for my stitches) and I think my urut session did me wonders.

Breastfeeding is better, no more engorgement pain... though I am beginning to worry already if I will have enough milk. I have started manual expressing yesterday just to relieve my engorgement when Hairee decides to have a longer nap than usual but I am not ready for the electric breast pump yet... well at least not till Hairee is 2 weeks old.

Weight? I was 75kg at the heaviest during my pregnancy and am now 66kg. So not too bad actually. I need to lose 10kg more to get back to normal and I'm so happy to report that I can still fit my first PB set. So will try and wear it from day 14 onwards.

Now that I'm physically more stable, I'm already lining up my activities to accomplish this month. I plan to:
1) Move my contacts from BB to Mac (ready for Iphone)
2) Start mobilising my important notes from my old Moleskin to the new one
3) Learn to use the electric breastpump
4) Start wearing my PB

Don't want the list to be too long because I want the goals to be achievable by 30th April.

Project Potty Update

Hari ini dalam sejarah.



A great milestone - Haidan managed to use the potty to do his first ever yak-yak all by himself!
