Gareth Is Two Weeks Old!

Gareth is two weeks old now...Confinement lady kept complaining that he didn't grow much. Well, I am not too worried. Afterall he's only two weeks old..I guess that's the problem of engaging confinement lady after birth. If I were a first-time mother, I would probably believe her and be very concerned. Also, many confinement ladies are not very pro-breastfeeding. Either they want the mummies to rest more at night or they want more sleep for themselves at night, hence they may keep advocating for formula milk. My confinement lady has four sons but she has never breastfed her children at all. Hmmm... now I just wish my 1 month confinement can quickly pass.

I notice this week Gareth is a lot more alert and he looks actively around the environment though I do not think he could see very far. One thing for sure, he loves looking at his big brother. Gareth could arch his back and turn his head to just have a look at Gregory whenever he hears Greg's voice. Heehee... I have also discovered that Gareth has a different cry when he is hungry and he wants milk - the rhythm of this cry was quite similar to the sound of an ambulance siren. Quite interesting isn't it?

One of my aunties (Mum's youngest sister) popped by to visit me. She stayed in Bukit Batok and she took a cab to come all the way to SengKang. Oh my gosh.. I think she must have spent a lot on cab fare. She bought me so much food, and I could see she loves babies. How nice if she stays near me.. I believe she wouldn't reject babysitting for me but sigh, Bukit Batok is so so far away. But anyway, thanks Xiao Yi, for everything. =)
