Sleep training a 7 month old baby

Posted on March 21, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

Who is addicted to my boobs is a blooby challenge! Night after night, we have been patting T2 to bed amidst wails of baby grumbles and mumbles. She doesn't cry out loud, Thank God! But instead grumbles and complains and shows her absolute dissatisfaction by kicking her legs.......click to learn what next.

Baby Babbling On and On…..

Posted on March 16, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

Yesterday, when the Hubs teased T2 for having such a grumpy frowny look on her face, she pouted, then started crying. He quickly pacified her and told her he was just joking and said she was actually very pretty, and she stopped crying and began smiling her cheeky.......click to learn what next.

7 month old baby bronchitis

Posted on March 8, 2010March 8, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

This is the 2nd time T2 has been ill being an exclusively breastfed baby. Tee started with formula and was exclusively breastfed for maybe 3 months and was way healthier than T2 ever was. Anyway.....T2 is much better now. We're both still coughing lots with lots of phlegm.......click to learn what next.

Stressed beyond recognition

Posted on March 2, 2010March 2, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

My little munchkin above is capable of stressing me out to the point that Tee no longer recognises her own mother. I have metamorphosised into a flaming dragon in heat who's just lost her King, not to another female dragon but to a....to a.....dirty pig! What does He.......click to learn what next.

Our first 3 hours in Kota Bharu

Posted on February 18, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

After waking up to catch a plane at 630am, we finally arrived in Kota Bharu for Chinese New Year at my in-laws and guess what the girls got up to for the next 3 hours? Tee was sent to do some colouring whilst T2 ate her lunch..... Then,.......click to learn what next.

How to shut a kid up on a plane

Posted on February 17, 2010February 17, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

Whilst we're on the roll on planes and chatty chicks, I thought I'd share how we managed T2's first plane ride ever. Tee had her 1st plane ride when she was 4 months old. She has traveled more places now than I ever had before I was 30.......click to learn what next.

What lies behind the mask

See this cute thing here? She looks all innocent and harmless, doesn't she? Everyone thinks she is absolutely gorgeous! But don't let her face fool you. She is one helluva chilli padi, even much more so than Tee.She can scream and SCREEEAAAAAMMMMMM.....SOOOOOO LOUD  until the porcelain toilet bowls.......click to learn what next.

Baby who doesn’t gain weight

Posted on February 5, 2010 by Mamapumpkin

T2 is still 6 kilos after 2 months. *sigh* I do hope she doesn't fall under the category of 'failure to thrive' because that would really be worrying as we not only don't have Medicare supplement but honestly, a healthy baby is all we ask for! Everyone who.......click to learn what next.

5.5 month old baby only weighs 6kg

HELP!!!! I have been breastfeeding T2 exclusively since the day she was born. She refuses the bottle so she has been by my side pretty much ALL THE TIME. Except for the once or twice that I snuck out for a quick breather, which left her in tears.......click to learn what next.

4 month baby with phlegmy cough

Posted on December 27, 2009December 31, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

T2 fell ill 3 weeks ago with a dry cough which quickly turned into a wet cough and then a cough with a runny nose. No fever, thank God! So much for an exclusively breast fed baby. Totally over-rated. I saw the Doctor 3 times. Because each time.......click to learn what next.

Bamboo baby rompers in Malaysia!

Posted on December 11, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

I splurged! Oh, how I splurged! I couldn't resist. I was educated the other day that my baby's romper was made out of bamboo. Bambooooo? Yes, the stuff that pandas eat! Gosh, I feel so dated..... I was told that bamboo fibers made into clothing are great for.......click to learn what next.

4 month old baby with cough

Posted on December 11, 2009 by Mamapumpkin

I am wondering now the overrated-ness of exclusively breastfeeding. Because T2 started having a dry cough which has now turned into a wet cough. She is unwell, no fever, but clearly cranky. She wants the boob all day and wants only to be held. She is usually an.......click to learn what next.
