Baby Charlotte Leow Yu Ting arrived on 24th October at 10.29am in the morning and she weighs 3.176kg.
Everyone has been asking me, how was it giving birth? Before I forget like all other mothers (all mothers told me that I will forget about it eventually and have another kid), I think childbirth is scary. It is painful and couldn't take the pain thus I chose epidural in the end. I take my hat off all mothers who did it without. I do feel weak that I cannot take the pain but I really cannot imagine going through without it. The thought of going through childbirth again scares me at least at this current moment. Maybe I too will eventually forget about it. But before the time comes... let me just scare those who are going to go through it in future hahaha.
I call Charlotte the terror in my life now. It gets traumatic when the child is brought home. She seemed like an angel in the hospital. Hardly crying much. See how sweetly she sleeps.
She even sucks her own thumb when she is awake in the middle of the night. How cute!
But hell breaks loose when she is home. She doesn't cry.. She screams. Screams till she turns purple. She is super impatient and have to drink milk the moment she feels hungry. I feel like I am perpetually feeding and feeding her. If she is awake, she expects to be carried. My parents had to take turn to carry her to walk around the house just to soothe her. She is still unpredictable and has a different pattern everyday. Cross my fingers while saying this.. at least for the past 4 nights, she only woke up 2 times to feed, with the 3rd being almost morning. At least everyone has a little more sleep now at night.
The only angelic time.. when she is sleeping! What a deceiving pic.
Call me a grouchy mummy haha
