6 months injection

Following the vaccination schedule, SS had another round during 6 months old. At night after the injection, fever came. We had to fed her paracetamol.....she was ok with it. The next morning, the fever came back, and we fed another round. The fever subsided but came back around 8.30pm, fever up to 37.9C!!! Since she just had milk at 7pm, and we fed her med around 8.30pm, she disliked the taste and vomit all the milk out. She looks so pitiful and reject the medicine. Cried and we feel bad and helpless. Around 10+, we tried to put the med inside the milk (a big no no, but we failed to feed her directly). She ate 2 oz and somehow, she kind of like knowing the milk is different! She slept and the next day, we took half day to monitor her. Normally the fever will subside after 24 hours of injection, hers lasted abit longer. Now both SS and us are phobia with feeding med :(

Baby SS 6 months old

Weight : 8.1kg
New observation : 1) She knows how to split milk out!! Naughty girl
                             2) She likes to open her leg wide wide in the cot

Bathing activity :-
Baby SS used to dislike bathing, very scared and will cry. Slowly, she starts to like bathing now ~6 months old. When I clean her mouth and tongue with handkerchief, she will bite my finger on left or right gums, miscellaneously :) She will smile and laugh. She also enjoys me washing her pigu and drying her buttocks area.

SS flipping at 4.5 months

Flipping milestone!! :D Still mastering how to flip

First CNY with Baby SS

This year we have SS celebrating CNY together. Very meaningful and happy to be parents for the first year. This is aside from getting angpow for SS :P Mummy bought alot of dresses from poney for her, all english style and no cheong sam/chinese style. Haha. Maybe next year can try wearing mini cheong sam. Poney clothes are not cheap...although they have 50% sale, but never mind la, once a year thingy and her cuteness in those clothes is irresistible. Must cherish the moment!

This was also the first flight experience for Baby SS. The flight will be from penang to kuching for 1 hour and 45 minutes. We were worried initially, on the air pressure thingy...since she was still small, just barely 4+ months old. We gave her milk/water and pacifier throughout the flight and luckily she was ok. Took a short nap after milk feeding...played awhile and pooh! We had to change diaper in the tiny toilet...Very challenging indeed. =.= On the return flight, she poohed another round. Imagine mummy, daddy and Baby SS all cramped inside the toilet..=.= We went back to hubby's hometown 3 days earlier before CNY. Baby SS cried the moment mil kissed her forehead at the airport...silly girl recognizing people i guess. But she got better the second day and throughout the trip, letting alot of people carrying her. She likes to look at her big cousins playing/shouting and had her first time meeting cousin sister Adele. Bought same clothes and hair band for both of them! Cute or not?

Baby SS understands what Mummy says?

It was 9th of Jan. Baby SS made noises for milk around 5.45am, she can shout by now and the noise level is far higher compared to previous months. She used to be very gentle with "eh eh eh eh".... but going to 4 months, she can shout with high pitch!
After feeding her, I put her into rocker to play while I express breastmilk. By the time I am done with expressing, washing bottles and changing her pooh pooh, it was already 7am. I was very tired....wanted to grab some sleep before 8am, but doubtful Baby SS will let go back to sleep as she was very alert and active. She slept from 6.30pm yest night.......:P

So I carried her back into the room around 7am, put her beside me, on the same bed. I looked at her and our eyes locked. She gave me full attention and did not make any sound. I said softly to Baby SS "SS, mummy wants to sleep, you kwai kwai (behave) and go back to sleep k?". Then I sayang her head while my hubby pat her buttocks. Not sure she really understand what I was telling her or she happens to be sleepy, she closed her eyes gentle and go back into sleep. Awwwwwwwwwww, my little precious cute little SS, mummy loves you to bits! :D
