Announcing the new arrival!

Hello blog!It's been bout a month since my last post, ey. and what a month it has been! on june 22nd, at 8:33pm, our babygirl, Mia Aleena Putri was born..a healthy, bouncy 3.41kg tot! she was kept at de hospital for a week tho due to high jaundice but now i can safely say she's out of the woods. Mia's been such a joy to look after. She doesn't cry much, unless she's hungry or crapped herself. She sleeps and feeds well, waking up every 3hrs or so for her meals. Unlike Imran who was quite difficult to settle after feeds. They tell me that babygirls are easier to handle compared to boys and so far it's been quite true when I compare Imran with Mia.

As for me, I'm feeling a lot better after the birth. The wounds healed up pretty fast this time, I think, thanks to my guardian angel, Dr.Alex's ample supply of painkillers! :) As per last time, I'm not into all these pantangs, just obvious things such as avoiding spicy foods as I'm breastfeeding Mia. My goal this time is to breastfeed her until she's at least 6 months old so wish me luck! I have about 5kgs of post baby weight to lose and I'm not really sure if I can get back in shape by de time my leave is over! Mum's been cooking all these yummy foods that it's a challenge to not have an extra serving! Oh another news is that my trusty maid will be leaving us for good today. So I'm guessing that'll help with my losing weight as Mum will surely has her hands full with housework and won't have time to cook, at least for a month until we get our new Cambodian maid...hmm.

All in all, I'm having a pretty good time at home this time round. With all the rubbish happening at work, it's great timing too to be off on a good long break, hopefully the dust had settled by the time I go back to work.

I'll post pictures of Mia up very soon. For now, time to catch a quick snooze before her next feed!
