Durian Rash - Update!

Ethan has a Durian tree.
It grows on his head.
How many they have?
5! Do you want to buy?
We have XO, D24, D101, Red Prawn & Bamboo Leg!
Ooolala........What is the price?
Haha... sorry! It is our precious & we don't sell it!

P/S: After applying the olive and coconut oil, the rash has dropped finally.

Baby Language

Ethan was quite cranky since the past 3 weeks. He screamed and cried without any reasons (my assumption). I have fed him, I have carried him, etc. He just couldn't calmed himself down. He can't sleep peacefully too. Whenever we thought he has aslept & put him to bed, he will wake up again!

Later we found out that he is suffering from upper and lower wind. He farts many times. Hence, I have stressed to Susana & my MIL that we must burp Ethan after his feeding. Initially, my MIL didn't really believe in it but I insisted it. So they will try to burp him nowadays. Besides, Ethan also has a very swallow tummy. He can't drink much and he will end up spitting up the milk. I was worried that he never get enough of milk. Again, I called up his pediatric, Dr. Gan to check on his condition. She told me that the spitting up was due to their immature digestive system, especially the sphincter. So it it totally fine. I also checked whether I could give him Woodward's Gripe Water for his upper and lower wind. She don't believe in it as it might be just a placebo effect. She asked us to burp him in between or after each of his feeding.

With such a cranky baby, I have visited the Dunstan Baby Language recommended by Vix. It is quite interesting actually. I tried to pick up some of it from Ethan but failed. Haha.... His cries is enough to make the world tumble down!

From his bodysuit, he has already told us that "I don't sleep, NOBODY sleeps!" Headache........

From 1st Day till Full Moon

Ethan's Nanny

Initially, we do not know whether we shall let Susana to take care of Ethan or not. However, we decided to engage her as Ethan's Nanny after she has agreed with the terms & conditions we have set for her.

She carries Ethan with this sling. It was quite scary to look at on the first glance as I worried Ethan might fell out from the sling. However, she has assured that Ethan will be safe in the sling. Haha... Anyway, we do not wanna Ethan to be carried & pampered too much in this sling.

Susana has just undergone her hysterectomy on Thursday. She has been discharged today & she will be able to take care of Ethan once she is fully recovered. Well, she has met our requirements so far. She is organized and she is clean. Most importantly, she obeys to our T&C so far. No complaints at the moments but we will still monitor her on and off.

Wish "Wak Wak" (a.k.a Auntie) will have a speedy recovery!

Ethan's Full Moon

It is a Divali & we decided to celebrate Ethan Full Moon on the day too. I thought I would be a pretty mommie on his day but who knows that I turned out wearing the awful glasses. Sigh.... Actually, my CL supposed to take care Ethan and I wanna have a good rest. Who knows that she asked me to take care of Ethan! She was asked to wake up early to prepare the Ginger Chicken Wine (10 chickens) by my MIL. Moreover, Ethan was so naughty that he pooped quite a numbers of time during the night. I was so exhausted till I've shown my sour face to BB. Poor him.... Don't even dare to talk to me. Haha!

On the day, my eyes were badly infected & I was restless. After washing out ourselves, we have this hair cutting ceremony for Ethan. The ceremony was completed with the help from Grandma.

Daddy is cutting Ethan's hair.

I took the red egg to roll on his cheeks so that he will have a rosy cheek. Haha...

Mai Po fed him after the ceremony.

Our lovely Grandma. She is my all time favourite because she is always with her smilling face & humble look.

Ethan slept so soundly in the living hall.

My beloved no. 1 - Kai Jun!

My beloved no. 2 - Lucas. He is getting chubby now. Haha...

Daddy, Mummy & Ethan.

And of course with me!

We have forgotten to take family photo during the day. So these are the pics we managed to capture in the evening. We also missed all the photos session with our family and relatives! What a regret!

Ethan's pressies.

Durian Rash

Last week, when I was strolling Ethan's head, I saw one pimple with greenish discharge grew on his head. Then one day later, it popped out 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Sometimes we managed to wipe it out during his shower time. But I dare not pinch it out as there grows on his fontanel. SIL told me to apply a thin layer of Fucicort cream. I did and some of it has dried out already.

The elderly called it Durian rash as I had too much Durian during my pregnancy. Haha... If it is, then I'm sorry, my precious!

Happy Family

I must praise my Hubby B once again! He is not only a supportive, lovely & caring Hubby B, he is also a patience & caring Daddy too. I remember that he told me this before he resume to work.

"Nie, you must take good care of yourself. You must put yourself in first priority & Ethan comes in second, ok?"

Our one and only happy family photo.

Daddy brought him to the balcony. He likes chit-chatting with his precious son. Sometimes he can talk to him for as long as 30 mins. :P
