The first of this and that...


When you have a kid there will be a lot of "the first time he/she did something" events... Like mine I have several that I can list down for now;
1. First step! - happened last week few days after his birthday in kk during our holiday. Talk about the right moment at the right time. :)
2. First fall off the bed - Ouch, he was playing his toys in bed and I went to switch on the aircon then he fell. Head first. I screamed then he screamed louder.
3. First time he blew bubbles- He's drinking from his cup during meals and one day he just started blowing bubbles whenever we gave him water to sip.. Hehe
4. First word? - Actually I failed to pinpoint which word came out from his mouth first coz everything just came out at almost the same time. And mind you, they were not real words... Coz it's more like blabbering sound.. haha
5. First solid meal - He had his first meal ever when he was 5 months and 3 weeks old. I gave him mashed ripe banana mixed with my breast milk... Only a few spoons though... He gave me his weird face expression the whole time... haha..
6. First swimming pool dip - This ended up badly as he developed rashes all over his body. Guess the water was dirty... Or too much chlorine... So I banned Cyberjaya public pool for Bebe Ian..
7. First laugh? - Seriously I could not recall this but this boy was laughing ever since he's few months old.. (Not to include sleep smiling, this one he did right after birth)
8. First fall on the floor - When he was 11 months old. This happened in KCH during holiday. My heart almost stopped. I was so protective over him the first 11 months that I did not leave him to crawl around the house. I let my guard down during that trip and he fell not once but 5 freaking times.
9. First fever attack - When he was 6 months old. Lasted for 2 days. Started on our last day holidaying in kk. I think it was Roseola and not measles as my MIL and my mother stated.
10. First time Bebe Ian is fully breast fed - When he was around 5 months. I stopped formula after he started to vomit out the milk (i've tried Enfalac A+, Mamex Gold, Anmum) and after educating myself and with the help of my good pumping buddy (tx nat!) I managed to supply enough breast milk till now. Not easy but worth the effort. :)

Seriously, there's a lot of first time of events that to list them all down will be like having a final term paper to complete in an hour. But nonetheless, they are all securely placed in my mind and I will cherish them will all my heart. :)

MMR - Should Or Should Not (Part 2)

Well, I did... Hehe.. After reading too many stuff I have decided that the benefits of vaccinating outweigh the risk they may have...

Yesterday was the appointment and I did ask the nurse on possible side effects and as expected the nurse said "takde lah"... So I asked her about how a friend's son developed fever and rashes few days after MMR injection then she said "terpulang kepada budak tu sendiri la, ada yang demam ada yang tak". Then when I ask about the possibility to delay this injection then she said "kenapa?, tau tak measles sekarang tengah merebak?"

Haiih... So to make story short I gave Ian the injection and no fever so far... **Touch wood... The nurse said this MMR injection is not painful for the child.. Maybe, coz Bebe Ian didn't cry that long and still play "roughly" as usual...

I hope really hope Bebe Ian will be just fine.... Amen.

MMR - Should or Should Not

Bebe Ian's MMR vaccination is coming very very soon and I am still debating with my own self on whether or not to proceed with it. His vaccination schedule is up to date so far and thank God that he suffered no side effects from them all. To be honest I have no issues with vaccination before. Thought that it is a good thing up until I joined this one mummies group in FB. Then I started having doubt. With MMR being the worst vaccine amongst all, I'm torn between a YES and NO.

Dear God, please help and guide me on this one.

Happy Birthday Bebe!

My son turned 1 yesterday and I couldn't help but feel proud of myself... Well it's been a year since I became a mom and although I have missed a lot of things that I used to enjoy pre-baby, I will never ever change my life now. I love being a mom. Period.
Bebe Ian is still a baby in my eyes although he qualifies to be called a toddler by now... Not walking yet, but can let go of his hold on things for a mere moment then fall.. Hehe
I brought him to the mall yesterday coz his birthday party is this weekend back home in KK. So nothing special yesterday... Just bonding time with me :)I tell you, it's worth taking leave from work for. :)

I will update more after his party this coming Sunday...

Cheers!
