Sentosa, Stevlynn & Supply (3S)
So Sat was my company's family day and i decided that we should go - for a few reasons
1. Stevlynn has never been to Sentosa
2. Wanted to let Stevlynn see the beach & sea
3. Been a LONG time since we went to Sentosa (The last time i went into Sentosa i was a Single Woman, but Left Sentosa as a Married Woman)
4. I signed up for all 3 of us
Well we woke up to a drizzling Sat and thought that with the rain, the weather would be cooler - and indeed it was
Picked Linda up and we headed off (BTW, Starbucks @ United Square on a Sat morning with new staff = hopeless. They forgot the chicken pie i paid for)
Sand was okay for Stevlynn but the Sea was a total disaster - she screamed the first wave landed on her feet and when Daddy SS brought her down again to try; there was no fooling her. Even before her feet touched the water she screamed :D
We then headed off to motherhood fair, which we bought huggies for Stevlynn, and other Misc stuff - not too bad a trip
Stevlynn had an insect bite on her forehead - and it got swollen.
Sunday morning she woke up with a slight fever, Granddaddy YEN insisted giving her paracetamol.
And ever since we replaced my 2x single pump with the Philip Avent ISIS DUO electric pump, my supply seemed to have picked up - or what my colleague says, the DUO pump is better at emptying my breasts.
So im back to morning pumps with 400++ML and each subsequent pump throughout the day ranges between 170ML to 220ML. Not too bad given the fact that before that i was battling with low supply. Well the freezer fully packed now with my frozen EBM (GrandMummy YEN told me to buy a new freezer for Stevlynn, which I am not sure where the hell to put it, so I'm contemplating throwing some milk out :( Sad case)
I am hoping to find more baby friends for Stevlynn around her age group, would like her to socialize more.
Need to make more effort in this area *sighs*
I am contemplating stopping BF-ing or at least introducing FM for a few reasons (some are just for ME)
- I would like to start my diet regime back in a bid to lose weight and regain the old ME
- I need to prepare her for weaning and hopefully she won't reject FM
I tried weighing Stevlynn @ home with an adult digital weighing machine (standing on the scale with me and then without her) am estimating that she weighs about 8KG now (or at least that's what the weighing machine say) but somehow at her PD she always seems lesser than what the scales at home say.
I also need to start clearing out her old clothes and put them up for sale (if anybody wants)
most of them she's worn twice or thrice maximum and is in very good condition - she's outgrown them too fast
and maybe sell off the Quinny Zapp.
( i need to get some money to put Stevlynn through some baby classes - getting to be very broke)
Anybody keen in bb clothes/stuff?
