Jaundice went down (below 100)

Finally after several trips to the polyclinic and countless blood tests, the doc announced that there is no more need for us to follow up on the jaundice level for Delan. It is now < 100 point.

HOORAY! Delan is gaining weight and has actually given me a lot of confidence for breastfeeding - I suppose only he + mum has supported me in giving breast milk.
In his small ways (gaining weight), Delan has given me a boost of confidence everytime doc/nurse asked if he is on total breastfeeding. I am so proud everytime I answered to the doc question... "Yes he is on breastfeeding"
I know Ben in his little actions do not approved of total breastfeeding... He has hinted for me to do it for only 1.5 months and to switch to formulas. I have been thinking of it as well...

Breastfeeding (100% pumping) is indeed very very tiring... especially when he feeds every 2-3 hours. First, we have to feed him using the bottle (burp/feed, burp/feed) takes approx. 30-40 mins, then I need to pump out (20 mins)..after 1 hour, the cycle repeats itself.

People tend to have the misconception that formulas will last longer and thus time spent feeding the baby will be shorter. Seriously I dont think so. If I switch to formulas, the only time i save is the pumping time.

Haiz... I am still thinking what is best solution to this....

Charlene invited to birthday party

Charlene has a close friend in the school. Her name is Qian Ning. To be very frank, I cannot put a face to this name.. and kinda of felt guilty. Have never paid much attention to the friends she have in school. She came back one day telling me that Qian Ning has invited her to her birthday party on Sat... usually, I would not want to go to such gathering... but reckon I need to spend more "alone" time with this lady. So, it was decided that we will attend Qian Ning's birthday bash.

Managed to find time today, got mum to help look after Delan and both Charlene and I went to Lot One to get Qian Ning a birthday gift. Brought Charlene along so she can have the "responsibility" of getting a gift for her friend. She is very excited about it. Got Qian Ning a Barbie Doll.. she initially wanted to buy something that costs about S$40 - told her that it is too expensive, ended up with something that is approx S$15. A disco Barbie.
