MAMA'S ENTRY on Kai Ann's Rashes

Both Kai-Jin and Kai Ann suffer from rashes during the early stage, but KJ's rashes are gone slightly pass 6 weeks. And Kai Ann has got more severe case of rashes, that I had to take her to the doctor. She told me that Kai Ann has got hormonal rash or also known as milk rash, which cause by my hormones. But she has a very bad one! So the doctor prescribed me some hydrocortizone cream which contain steroid. I used it once and the rashes went away, but the next day its back again. I decided not to use it again, because Kai Ann was only 3 weeks, and I am exposing her to steroid and moreover on her skin!! Poor girl continue to have poxy face like a teenager! The doctor said will go away latest by 3 months old.

When we got back to the island, her condition did not improve and more problems arisen. There were clear liquid came out from behind her ears and got cradle cap. My poor girl now smell like a stinky cheese! I asked my dad to consult the doctor, and she told us that it is a package deal. I can use the hydrocortizone cream for the face and olive oil to soften the crust on her scalp and brush them off her head, and the cradle cap problem will be solved. Touching Kai Ann's rough face, feeling really sad and wonder where is the baby smooth and soft skin? Searched the internet and tried everything that is suggested by the helpful moms, but still the rashes did not subside.

Finally while sitting by the beach, brushing off her crust, I had an idea - take her for a swim in the sea. I should have thought about it sooner!!! The result was amazing! We saw the instant result! Her skin smoothen overnight, rash reduced and the ears were not oozie anymore! After the second time in the sae, her skin was cleared, and got smoother to touch too! But after 2 days of hot weather an no swimming session in the sea the rash came back. So we decided to dip her in sea water daily until she got rid of all my hormones in her system.

That is my natural remedy for milk/hormonal rash. Try it, if no sea water try saline!

BACK TO THE ISLAND!

Hello all, sorry for lack of updates! We just moved back to the island after 6 months of being in the city. I was actually quite sad to be part with Kong Kong, popo, Ah Jiu, Ah Che, Pikang GeGe, Lucas, kakak, Wor Kei (ok that's my favourite Kopitiam) and all my playmates. Now that I am back in the island, I am starting to enjoy re-exploring the island again.

It's rather different from the city, I still not used to going barefoot cause the sand always get stucked to my feet everywhere I go and I cannot wear a lot of my Air Jordans, adidas, New Balance Ah Jiu has bought me.

Papa and mama move our resort closer to the creek so this is where I usually hang out now

What you looking at?

Sometimes I do take my giant turtle out and spend my time lying on its back and think of what to eat next, yummy!

Mama asks me to put on sunblock all the time if not she says I will look tan like papa wor! I find it quite funny hehe

All of you should come and play with me on this wonderful paradise, I miss all of you in KL already!

Talking KJ and his punch lines - mama's entry

I always read other people's blog about their kids conversation, and some funny remarks from a child, and wonder when will it be our turn. And now KJ is a parrot, and he has been talking none stop lately, with extra long sentences, there are a couple of conversation that I would like to record down.

One day at the car porch:
Ah Jiu (my brother) and KJ are playing near the sand box, and KJ took a broom and started sweeping up his mess.
KJ, "Aiyo!" Indicating the messy floor.
Ah Jiu, "Yes, look at the mess! Who made a mess?"
KJ matter of factly, "Ah Che!"
Ah Jiu >_<"

At Ikea:
Papa carried KJ from car park, after 30sec, KJ requested his uncle to carry him.
KJ, "Papa no enerygy, ah jiu got energy!"
Ronnie >_<*

One day Papa taking KJ to the swimming pool:
KJ, "KJ know how to swim, papa don't know how to swim!"
And he started to give papa swimming lesson!

Lunch time grandma calling out to everyone to come down for lunch:
KJ told his grandpa, "Ah Kong you go down for lunch, ah Be (KJ himself) want to work on the computer!"

Mama, popo, kong kong all fainted!

21 months update - Mama's Entry

My baby is almost 21 months, and in 1 day time he is going to be a big brother to his baby sister. Here are some of the recent development of our little chatter box.

Last week he has been down with viral fever, and he became extra clingy to me. We think he senses that his little sister is arriving soon, and he is going to have to share his parents.
This is how he demand attention, he wanted us to hold him to sleep. But later we found out that he was actually having fever.
After 4 days of diarrhea and fever, we decided to take him to have a blood test fearing he got dangue fever or something serious. Poor boy got his arm pierce for the first time for blood drawing! It was really disheartening to see his arm wrapped up like this!

When he got a little better, we bought him his very first pet, actually pets. 2 tortoises, and he name them "Tak-Jin and Tan-Jin". I don't know where that come from. But his "friends" are all with Jin as name. Like himself!


We told him that he is going to choose a present for his "mei-mei" (little sister), he decided to buy her a doll. We do not know why he choose a doll for his mei-mei, because he never play with a doll, and neither have he seen others playing with doll before. It is really interesting to know what is going on in his little mind sometimes.

He has been like a monster lately, with growing attachment to me as the time get close to the delivery. He demand to be carried by me a lot, and especially today he wanted me to bath him and take him to the toilet (which has been his papa's department for a very long time).

As for his development, he is a real chatter box. He can speak sentence as long as 8 words combine. Sometimes even with adjectives! We are just glad with KJ's development so far, and we hope he will be a loving brother to his little sister!

Soon there will be papa, mama, Kai-Jin and mei-mei in the family.
