Have’nt got a good sleep since Little-D arrived in this world to meet us especially at night as he still not used with the environment here.

Many people are unaware of the benefits of good night sleep and rest like what I did last time when I am still pregnant but for now on I will appreciate the every single minutes I have. When I have extra money I will get myself a
sleep number bed that can be adjusted to suit my liking. As for now, I have to bear with my old mattress and sleeping in a room without air-conditioner and even fan

well, it is normal not to get enough sleep at the first few weeks. u tend to wake up to even the slightest noise your baby makes. try not to tend to him unless he is crying to make him accustom. newborns do not know how to differentiate day or nite yet. wish u good luck..

how i hope to..but my baby is damn fussy..one sound from him i will need to open my eyes big big and fast to pick him up or else he will cry until the lung come out..

chin up.. i ( and countless other mummies) went through the exact same thing. the first month is usually the worst (irregular sleep patterns) HANG IN THERE
do invest in a baby bjorn , they sleep easily in them and when they are sleeping, u hurry up and catch up with ur sleep too. my first month was horrendous; my baby boy woke up every 2 hours and had to be held like ALL the time. and because i didnt get enuff sleep , my breast milk supply was affected and i had to pump like crazy to keep it flowing. and i seem to remember my little boy on my breast like ALL the time !! gosh, rather nightmarish actually. luckily, my husband was on leave from work and he really was a great help and great source of strength. my little boy is not 2 and a half and hes just an angel and he sleeps through the whole night!! i thought that would never happen during the first few months of my baby’s life.LOL.u take it easy and dont worry abt uploading stuff.. chill oout and hangi n there! btw, w my be 2nd baby, i will be hiring a confinement lady. friends tell me that it will be money well spent. but u shd see the mommies here in the uk (where i am residing now ) they go out with their babies to local playgrps and the park just a few days after giving birth. .. i just cant see myself doing that!

Baby Bjorn? what is that? never heard about it before..
Oh my..I was on medication..so could not breastfeed him now..sigh.i scare that after being on formula for too long, he will ignore my breast next time….
oh, u having another baby now? congrats! and i really envy u as UK there is much more nicer in term of weather compare to here..sigh…every single second, I sweat like nobody business..

that’s why i said i dun like confinement month; the toughest mth of all but it will get better each day. hang in there and stay sane ok.

had my first baby in singapore . but i refused to go through traditional confinement . i showered every day and i really couldnt not wash my hair(singapore is bloody hot , if i dont get my shower i cld turn homicidal/suicidal) and i slept in an air -conditioned room. Who knows if i will live that long to experience rheumatism anyway??
but my mom was totlaly exasperated with me. she bought me some herbal bags that i was supposed to immerse in a pail of water and wash myself with but they were left untouched by ungrateful me .. haha. sorry mom.
baby bjorn is a brand ; they sell baby stuff and i swear by its baby carrier. no other carrier/sarong wrap comes close to it in terms of comfort and ease of use. 3 weeks will fly past , i so admire ur determination and ability to go through confinement. u can do it!

I have not bath for 10 days already..sigh..I dont think I will be able to stand for the whole month..I also been sleeping in the air-con room because my baby can not stand the heat..
anyway, I think that lots of those old tradition confinement rules can not be use at present time anymore..but really hard to talk to my MIL..sigh..
