Weaning

Its a sad sad day that we decided to wean her :( So now I'm pumping only once in office, even then I don't empty them, but pump enough for my own comfort. I must say I'm quite reluctant, but she's almost 11 months, so I got to do it eventually. Best do it now during term break. Once school starts, will have no time to pump anyway.

She's been terrible the last few nights, waking up at 2am to 4am refusing to sleep. So yesterday and the day before that I had massive headaches. Yesterday I succumbed took MC, reluctantly leaving her with my in laws, despite being at home. I must say, time alone is really therapeutic! I really do miss being free and easy and able to do anything I wanted! But not quite as much as I missed her hehe...

Did I mention she's now eating pasta? Coz of her taking so little milk, i'm trying to introduce calcium rich foods like cheese. I bought those chedder cheeses available at the cheese deli? kind, to reduce processing. like $6 for 6 slices or something like that. Really ex as far as chedder goes, and grated it over her brocolli pasta. Glad she loves it =)

Its been so long

since i last posted, since then so much has changed. i've come back to work, tanya now eating tons of porridge now, but not wanting milk any more. she taking very little milk which leaves me really worried; like when i'm at work only about 3oz (<100ml) 3x. she needs at least twice that amount daily...:(

I also just started seeing the start of her top left tooth erupting yesterday when she was laughing. waited so long for the first signs of pearlies and suddenly she has 3 erupting! tried to catch photo of them but they are really elusive! probably coz they are still half baked hehe

she's geting really active and starting to know things and get curious. also getting wary of strangers as compared to her friendly self before. We have been going out every week, from zoo to bird park to swimming and singpore flyer etc trying to keep her entertained =) tons of pics been uploaded to facebook, coz thats much easier to do than blogging hehe, i'm turning to a brainless bird

hopefully got more chances to update soon.
