Hi guys! Mommy past her exams fairly well! However have to stay concentrated and work harder! Mommy is so busy this week! Zedian is still sick the whole week, down with cough and flu. He is unable to attend childcare and Zedian's grandmother is taking care of him. But Zedian grandmother is sick too! Zedian will not recover at fast pace =(.

It's been hard for Zedian as he is teething.. He feels so uncomfortable that he consistently scratch his ears till his tissues tear =(.

Mommy teached Zedian a new skill again! How to drink from a straw. I felt so happy and proud when he learnt it! LOL, he cough everytime he took a sip! Mummy is waiting for his straw bottle to arrive. Haha.

The bad news. Mommy's milk is on low supply... I have not be taking care of myself lately! I should drink more fluids and take fenugreek! If not... I have no choice to supplement him with formula. However WHO recommends breastfeeding up to 2 yrs of age. Well, I will see how it goes.

Zedian has been waking up quite frequently at night. Mommy is quite exhausted. =( School is long, and sleep is short. I have to endure!

I miss Qian Wen.. So long never meet up. Sorry i am really too busy =(

My routine... Wake up, brush teeth change, feed Zedian, School. 12-1pm head home/childcare to feed him. 6 returns home, eat, plays with Zedian, change him, read story book, feed him and settles him to sleep. By the time is already 8pm.. I will have to bath. And relax alittle bit. And is 9pm.

How can i have a CCA =.=

I hope Zedian gets well soon. And i hope he can stand up unsupported himself soon!

Everyday is exciting and enjoyable to see Zedian grow up!

A battle.

Zedian is teething and because of that he actually had a fever. It was on wed when Zedian's teacher called me and inform me that he had a fever of 38.4 degree c. I had to rush down and pick him up and bring him to the doctor. Actually it was the first time Zedian had a fever, so I was very nervous and I didn't know what to do. Well, waited quite long to see the doctor about 1 hr +. Zedian was already very whinny because of the long wait. Thank God he didn't have any ear infections. It was due to the fact that he was in infant childcare ( very prong to viruses) as well as he is teething. The doctor actually lectured me about fever. Well, It was very informative. I learnt that fever is actually very common and no need to worry so much unless there are serious issues like, irritable, drowsy, vomit. But still have to keep a look on the temperature of the baby. Brain damage can only caused when the fever is above 41 degrees c. Zedian was basically very fuzzy the whole day, as he was sick. I was extremely patient with him. At night it was very difficult for me, his temperature is constantly rising and i had to keep it down by applying wet towel on his forehead and constantly take his temperature. At 1 point, his temperature had gone up to 39.9 degree c and then 40.1 degree c I was so worried that i rush to my mom's room and told her we have to go hospital. But thankfully, after cooling down Zedian and apply wet towels his temperature gone down to 39.4 degree c. I did not sleep the whole night. ~.~ I only manage to sleep about 4 am + and when i sleep i still can automatically wake up and take temperature for him. I think that is a magic of a mummy! The following day, Zedian's temperature had gone down to 38 degree c. And today he is much better. Thank God!

Zedian is now 9months 3 weeks. Time past so fast! But right now he is experiencing separation anxiety. Whenever i leave him, he will cry. And this usually peaks around 9 months. I am trying to let him learn that goodbye means mummy will come back. Cause babies at this age usually thinks that bye bye mummy is gone.

Zedian is coping rather well in school! He is learning new things every single day. And he is such a clever boy! He knows how to grab my attention by doing things that applease me. That night when he was about to sleep, he clap his hands! I was very happy. But it was time to go to sleep and he clap=.= lol, means he doesn't want to sleep. But i got so excited that i ask every1 in my family to come to see. Then the following day, before he sleep at night, he did it again..... But this time i inorge him. LOL, i am not a evil mummy, when it's time to sleep, it's time to sleep!

He loves book! I did mention b4? Book is his pacifier! He chooeses books over toys. And he can flip it very well as if he is actually reading it. Parenting from young is very important I remeber introducing Zedian to book when he can actually sit up around 3~5 months. And I will read to him every single day. He will get very upset if he can't flip it.

Children are very clever! Never underestimate them.

Zedian knows quite alot of things now!
1.Clap hand
2. Act cough
3. Diao diao diao (jump)
7. High five
8. Mum Mum (eat)
9.Blow raspberry
10. Roll ball ( he will roll back to u!)
11. Bye Bye ( he did it today)
12.Stand without support 10s?

He actually knows where are the birds, light, tree, and buildings.
I am so proud of him, and will definitely try my best to teach him!

Now..... I am trying to teach him to fall alseep on his on. Sounds easy? It is hard!!!!
My mum always interferes with me=.=

OK gotta sleep soon incase Zedian wakes!
