Baby L – Daily Routine during my Maternity Leave

November 15, 2014

Another month just flashed past! Happy 4 months old to my baby boy!! Looking back, I must say I really enjoyed this month with Laurent. He has become (even) more chatty so he is always keeping me entertained. He has also achieved 2 milestones this month – sleeping through the night and flipping on to his tummy for the first time.

October 11, 2014

The eleventh day of every month now holds a special meaning to me as Laurent will be turning another month older with each passing 11th 🙂 I used to have the time (and energy) to update my blog almost weekly, but now, I’m just thankful I can do a monthly update.

[Product Review] Yoomi feeding system

September 25, 2014

As I’ve briefly mentioned in my previous post on breastfeeding, due to Laurent’s rather low birth weight I was advised to supplement his feeds with some FM in the initial period. As such, he has taken on bottle feeding quite well. While bottle feeding allows daddy to take on night duties and allows us to leave Laurent with his grandpa ...

Baby L – Laurent’s Baby Shower

August 16, 2014

Laurent had his baby shower last Saturday to celebrate his ‘full month’. Coincidentally, 9 August was also our ‘paktor’ (dating) anniversary because Wayne and I got together (officially) on 9 August 2007 🙂 7 whooping years ago! When I was still pregnant, I was already thinking about Laurent’s baby shower and diligently scouring Pinterest for ...

Bump Style

July 27, 2014

As I was clearing photos from my phone and camera to make space for more baby photos, I was looking though my pregnancy photos and realised I kinda miss my bump 🙂 Looking back, those 40 weeks wearing the bump seemed to have passed by in a flash when initially, 40 weeks sounded like such a long time. The recommended weight gain as instructed by ...

It’s 2.30am and I’m wide awake, waiting for Laurent to be sent to me for his second feed ? Our baby darling took his first look at this world on 11 July 2014, close to 8pm.
