hands free, fuss free. I like.
good morning. at 430am in the morning, here’s what I have been up to all week. nebulizing my kid. of cos, it hasn’t been so smooth sailing every single time but I have been much blessed that jerry doesnt struggle against it at all. even when he’s awake.. he’ll sit and stare and try get comfortable. the most difficult is when he is actively awake and move around much. else its been pretty easy and it gets better with experience. now you know why I have been looking like a panda and very sleep deprived. next up, getting that cough and runny nose medication down his throat!…

3 times to get it right.
having been there, done that for being pregnant, going through the entire journey and child birth, I still get the jitters when I head to the pharmacies to grab a test kit. my first time round, I think I bought a mid range test kit and tested positive on my first trial. so I figured, I just grab any house brand! my period was due the last week of the month and when it was 31 May, I figured.. I could be preggers, hence the trip to grab a test kit. well.. I wasn't. I had always wanted three kids. but Der only wanted one so I was a little…

hello?
yes. its true. I got into an car accident this morning. I wasn’t paying attention and my car my husband’s car kissed someone’s arse. I meant the bumper. its wasn’t really very bad. the van I bumped suffer some minor scratches. my car plate got smashed into a million pieces and the front fascia is also smashed. boo. its my second accident into two months. I think the sleep deprivation is a major contributor. I am feeling really really bummed bumped. the good news is… I’m alive and not injured at all (my wallet is though) so I guess that’s all it matters. 明天我还是一条好汉 (loosely translated…

my day.
started at 4am. I jumped out of bed, hearing the toilet door slide open! all that greeted me was a cheeky baby that has climb out of his bed and headed for the toilet to have some water play (gunning for the toilet bowl). lucky for me that I am generally a light sleeper so I jumped out in time before he even got to it. I nebulised him and gave him his medication and jumped back for a quick nap when my mum woke at 6am.. my happy baby in the morning. with a sweet and a wrapper. no. he isn’t allowed to eat but he knows its…

its madness.
i was estactic when i heard the news about jerry being able to be discharged. back home, i am struggling with sleep deprivation so bad.. i kinda wish i had the help of the nurses from the hospital and it isnt that tough. it’s been madness since jerry’s home coming. he has loads and loads of medication and they are driving me nuts. coupled that with no one else to help, i think i was a little on my wits’ end today. for the record, here’s how the daily schedule is like for now. 4.30am – Nebuliser 5am – Medication for cough & running nose 8am – tablet for his…

trimming those little nails.
with a hyper active kid who is constantly squirming away from you or trying to climb somewhere.. nail trimming is quite the chore. never mind the fact they don’t stay still, my son snatches the nail scissors away from me before I can do anything so it is definitely a hazard. he somehow loves the scissors! and its cap. so here’s a useful little tip. I snip his little fingernails and toenails when he is taking his afternoon nap. I can take all the time I want to carefully trim those little nails without a worry of snipping his flesh as compared to when he is awake and…

YAY
is when the husband called this morning and said the doc gave the clearance for jerry to discharge! all that patting and loosening of the phlegm helped! its the best thing to beat the Monday blues. I can’t be happier. p.s. the above picture is taken at sunday morning at 6am. just before he fell and hit his head. Posted via LiveJournal app for Android.

high on drugs.
literally. check out jerry’s damn high face. and ignore that huge bruise because he fell face down from the sofa couple of days ago. p.s. the picture above is a case of bad timing. my little brave trooper has been really brave, taking in all the nebulizing sessions in his stride every 2hrly. ok. except the first one in the morning when he was really sick and cranky. he probably realise the good of it thereafter. Meanwhile, it seems like baby is on the mend while mummy here is suffering from intense sleep deprivation and I’m currently on watch over duty tonight (or yesterday since I wrote the…

my Saturday morning..
is spent scrambling out in bed at 7am and off we went to the paedratician. jerry has been battling with the flu virus since mid week and it developed into a full blown cough and now, fever. its been a morning it has been. we have just been told that jerry is suffering from an asthma attack and has to be admitted for observation and be constantly nebulized every 2hrs. I think its every parent’s fear of hearing that statement from the doctor. the hospitalization part that is. doc says he needs to be warded for 3 days. the timing can’t be worse. Der is scheduled for…

a holiday beckons.
Yes. some weeks back, i bought a whole bunch of air tickets for a family trip. it’s a short trip and it’s going to be Jerry’s first flight experience. and i’m going with a huge party (8 adults and 1 baby). mega excited and i cannot wait. we are going to jet off to the land of kennysia – Kuching! I have never been there and though it doesnt sound as exotic as africa or australia, i dont really care when i get the chance to jet somewhere and have an adventure. does anyone has any tips and recommendations on where i can go/eat, what to see/visit etc? drop me…
