It is really not easy to look after a 28mths toddler and 2mths old bb. I spend almost half a day with both of them and get the housework done without any help.
Mil went out when both of them are taking their nap. 30mins ltr xuanlin woke up and I haven't even start mopping. After awhile didi woke up as well. I give him pacificer and see if he can get bk to slp. Continue with my mopping while I let both of them stays on their bed. I carried xuanlin out and want her to stay on the sofa so that I can faster finish. Wei ze start crying I hv to carry him out and let him sit on his bouncer. Xuanlin want me to wash up for her because she poo poo alrdy. I hv no choice but to let didi cry for awhile then prepare his mik after washing cheh cheh. Feed wei ze and he starts to poo while drinking. I hv to burp him and let him sit upright before changing him. My day is full of cleaning, washing, feeding. I still left with 2 toilets to wash I cant even go and bath and express milk without anyone ard. Mil came bk at abt 5.30pm then I can pump milk, wash toilets and bath.
Wonder hw my mil going to handle 2 of them when I m bk to work on October.

Making purée is such a breeze
Had finally decide to get the Philip combined steamer & blender. We went to taka bb fair and saw that the blender are selling at $159. Usual price is $199. Called Elaine immediately to see if there are taka voucher to let go at 10% discount. She helps me to get $200 voucher at $180.
With this blender making purée is such a breeze. Simply steam the food, flip and blend. Unlike xuanlin time we hv to steam and use a food maker to blender the food. I would strongly recommend this to FTWM, cause really helps to save alot of time preparing nutrition food for ur bb and parts are easy to wash too.

Milk strike
Wei ze's has been drinking very little milk as compared to some of the june baby. Some bb younger than him already drinking 180ml but he is still drinking 110ml. Sometime even lesser than that. Alot of times I have ritheow away whole bottle of fresh milk.
I have been able to meet his demand and at the rate going I need to store those milk which is express out before 24hrs. Seem that he prefer to sleep than drink. That makes me worried if his intake is too little.

Wei ze's is 2mths old on 04 Aug
Time files which mean that I am left with few more weeks of maternity leave. Anyway I m going to extend my leave till early oct.
Some updates on wei ze
He is really an angel. I love him so much. He is so different from cheh cheh. His routine is drink, sleep, drink, sleep. Maybe is because we intro him pacificer earlier and we dun spolit him by carrying. He can easily fall asleep on the bouncer. Xuanlin always want bao bao and once we put her down to the cot she will start to cry. She really give mr a hard time. Wei ze love to smile just like his cheh cheh. He start to recognize faces. He starts to makes noises like eeee, ooooo, uhhhhhh....

Cheh cheh simply dote on Di Di
People alway says 1st one girl, 2nd one boy is good. Because chech chech will love and dote on didi more.
Well so far xuanlin dun feel jealous or do something to attract our attention. She knew that we need to give more attention to didi. She will help to pass me all the things needed whenever I changes didi. So sweet of her rite? Besides that she loves to take picture with didi and even want to carry him. Every morning she will come into my room and see if her didi is awake, and always want us to place him on the bouncer so that she can talk and play with him. Xuanlin really grown up alot and she really sayang her didi. Hopefully she will continue to love and care for her little bro.

Mommy breastmilk
I only manage to breastfeed xuanlin for 6 months, cause on the 1st mth I found a lump on my right breast which lead to infection. I need to take panadol and dare not give the milk to bb. I pump and throw away. Almost used up all the fbm that i stock up. Milk flow decrease after the incident. And my supply totally stop after 6 months.
With pass experience i am more cautious this time. I will pump out excess milk after latched to build up my supply and to prevent engrogement. I will also massage my breast regularly in case of blocked duct. My freezer stash are full of fbm. I got at least 60pkts inside and had just given away 30pkts to a mummy. Milk supply is not high but still can catch up wei ze's demand. I can yield 200ml with 3-4hrs interval.
I wanted to breadtfeed for at least a year. Hope supply can be more stabilise before i go bk to work on oct.

Shave & Cut
Before
After
On 24 jul we bring wei ze to shave his hair. Suppose to shave it on his full mth but bil pick this date to shave and cut his nails. After bathing him we bought him to my pil & mum plc for the 1st time. He is a lucky chap total gotten 6 red pkts from both grandparents.
And I can only cut his super long nails while he is asleep at my mum plc. We had our dinner before heading bk hm. It is alittle tough to bring a baby and a toddler out nw :(( guess I need to confine myself at hm until they r older.
