12th Week (1st April ~ 7th April 2007)

A lot of things happen this week. First of all, YL started to work on Wednesday. We have major problem on this day. Some how the breast milk storage was not enough for Yueh Hui. My mother-in-law was so angry because the baby was crying all day long. Some how she cannot find the Formula milk we prepared for her for this situation. To make things worst, my mother-in-law was complaining her leg was very painful due to carrying Yueh Hui. We were so worry what to do next. To get a babysitter or continue with my mother-in-law? Finally, we gave her another try. Subsiquence days was better because we have more than enough breast milk stock. On Wednesday night, for the first time, Yueh Hui slept for more than 4 hours non interupted at night. This is new sleeping pattern, also gave YL more time to rest. Yueh Hui has become more and more talketive now. She even start to roll-over her body but has not been successful yet without our assistant. We went to see Dr Chye on Saturday to check her rashes on her face. According to Dr Chye, that is normal and very mild and everything seem normal. He advise us to use baby lotion on the dry skin area.

11th Week (25th March ~ 31st March)

YL will start work next week. We were trying out our new routine. First of all, YH had not been fed with bottle or formula milk since 3rd Week. We were not
sure whether she likes it or not. The breast pump also been idle for some time. YL was trying to express milk with the pump but not very successful. She only
managed to express less than 2 oz for the first trial. But things get better by time. We also struggle to feed her with bottle. Anywhere, we managed to use
bottle for the whole Sunday with a lot of pain.

10th Week (18th March ~ 24th March)

For the first time, we went out for shopping together. YH was very coorporative, throught out the 3 hours shopping, she just sleep...... I made a mistake by
not bringing the stroller... I have to carry her for solid 3 hours.... lesson learn. YL fed her once in nursery room in Jusco.

6th Week (18th Feb ~ 24th Feb 07)

First Chinese New Year with YH. First time also for YL and myself collect Ang Pao for our baby. We spend first 2 days of CNY at my parent place and another
day at YL's mother place. After that, we took a good rest at home to enjoy some peaceful day. The confinement month really tireing and this is the first time
we have our own space to relax. For YL, this is very good break, at least she felt more comfortable at home.

5th Week (11th ~ 17th Feb 2007)

According to Lo Ti Pat, Yueh Hui's fullmoon is on 11th Feb 2007. Early morning we clean her up and I perform hair cutting ceremony to trim her hair. We were debating whether to shave her hair or to just trim her hair. Chinese believe baby hair should be shaved bald on fullmoon day but modern practice has change a little bit. Since non of our parents insist to shive her, I decided to trim because maybe the tiny little hair can keep her head warm. By afternoon we went
to my Parents home at Jln Ipoh for praying ceremony. This is the first time we went back together to my parents' house. My mom is very happy and she set-up the praying table and we 'bai bai' together.
All my family members turn-out for our celebration dinner at home. Yit Ling's 2nd brother also joint us. Unfornutely, the baby is too busy sleeping, she did not came out from her room until later that night.We went back to SS2 after all the makan makan.
On 14th Feb, I collected fullmoon gift package from Uniq Food Trading http://www.uniqfullmoon.com.my/ at Puchong. I distributed 23 packages to APM AC and 17 packages to Unisys then 25 packages to APM AE. Of course, I delivered my family members.
It cost me almost RM1K for the above gift boxes. This Chinese traditional practice to return favour to those who sent gift to the baby. The most important item is the red eggs. Chinese used to ask a newly wed couple when to present 'red eggs'. That means new baby born.We went back to our home in Puchong together for the first time on 23rd Feb, one day before Chinese New Year's Eve.
