life back at work as a mummy.
been wanting to jot down my thoughts but i have been sooooo tired lately. i crashed out while doing things halfway every night and i sleep in the most odd manner. i havent had a decent conversation with the husband for days.. but i’m surviving. and thankfully for the rain yesterday morning and a nice husband who said yes to sending me to work when i nicely asked. we finally had proper conversations (non-baby related) in the car on the way here listening to class 95 while being stuck in the morning traffic jam that was amplified by the heavy rain. i should be thankful for traffic jam, because it…

Separation anxiety.
It’s one of those mad rush mornings today. My mum wasn’t in since she left the house before the sun is up to JB for her post surgery check up and I didn’t have that extra pair of hands to help me out in the morning, just so I could prep for work faster. Hubs and me had to pack the baby off to the in-laws, who has taken leave especially to help us take care of the baby till my mum is back. Unfortunately, I couldn’t take leave as I had a launch to do today and the husband has some timelines to meet. It was the first for…

The office’s moo moo room.
If there is one novelty for me when I headed back to work after almost 5 months (with the hospitalization leave prior and annual leave after my maternity leave), it is the excitement of checking out the nursing room in the office. The whole experience is very exciting, as well as daunting.. Not really knowing what to expect. And sure enough, my first day of using the room threw me off a little, because of my own carelessness.. I forgot to bring quite a few essentials – container/ziplock bags to identify my milk bottles (mark them as mine), ice-pack to cool them for transportation home, and the cooler bag! I…

Is this it?
The kind of face that you come home to and makes all your frigging fatigue melt away and cast all that worries and stress to thousands of miles away that you don’t even remember they exist. If it is, it ain’t happening to me. I am suffering from a terrible headache the entire day, likely from the lack of sleep (he kept crying in the middle of the night these days like NON STOP in his sleep and nothing would soothe him until we cradle him in our arms. I’m baffled!) and the budding stress from timelines at work is not making it better. I feel like I am in…

day 2 at work.
still a little dazed, a little unfamiliar. takes a bit in getting back to the groove! a little rusty, perhaps. but, i can feel the waves coming towards me. it’s a juggle, motherhood and work. last night, jerry decided to torture me by waking up a total of 3 grand times. never in the past 3 months has that happened since he had progressed to sleeping through the night after the first month. maybe once, maybe twice, but never before 3 times in a night. maybe he is also trying to settle into a new routine. without mummy in his lives as much. without much snuggles and kisses from me.…

Majorly sleep deprived.
I need some kind of spell please. To help make things better! The first day of work went by, I was yawning the most part of it despite it being a relaxing day. I crashed for a power nap during lunch, and headed home early. But, I hardly had the time to rest. Dinner, start milking business, bond with baby, prep him for bed (wash up, clothes change, milk feed) and my baby refused to sleep. Round of coaxing and twinkle twinkle little stars later, his eyes are still bright and big while I was cursing silently under my breath because I wished I was in bed. Finally he konked…

Happy 4 months, son!
(this post is 2 days late) Meet Mr. Chewy Fingers. I told my son that i’ll take a picture of him chewing his fingers and show it to daddy if he chews. For a moment, I thought he understood because he took away the fingers, only to put them back moments later. And here’s photographic evidence for the dad. We have been spanking his hands every single time the fingers goes into the mouth. I’m hoping classical conditioning will ease this problem in time to come! In the past month, I haven’t been spending a lot of time with Jerry, mainly cos I was away.. But this month, we saw…

Visiting the sandman.
He sleeps just like I do. Heh. I think that beanie is gonna the the 臭臭 of his. =) Gonna send the hubby off at the airport. I have to spend the last days of my leave caring for him alone. Is it a blessing for me to spend more time with the baby before the husband returns and me, heading back to work? Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.
