discovering Emma

Our family went out of the house together for the first time today ever since Emma was born. =) We brought Emma to the paediatrician for her checkup. Her jaundice level went up a little, but thank God she doesn't need to undergo any UV light treatment. She'll have to go for another check on Fri to see if her jaundice level has gone down. Do pray along with us on this. We're trying to feed her with more fluids and supplement with formula milk for her night feeds. We pray that'll help to improve her bowel movements as well. Other than that, she's still the feisty "chilli padi" (as what our lactation consultant and paediatrician call her cos of her loud cries.. hahaha), and we thank God that she' not colicky to date.

We discover things about Emma daily... for one, she's got her favourite sleeping position... much like the one that we put up in our previous post. The same "recovery position" on her right side, with her left arm and left leg crossing over to her right...

and not forgetting her usual "right hand to the nose or right cheek" as well..
and even her arms "inverted sky-diving" pose.. =P

she's probably enjoying being cuddled more and more as well...

"before"

"after"

"after and after"

Adrian and Jasmine with jiejie Cherise came over for a visit. Thank u all for your gifts! Especially this nice beautiful handiwork.. sorry, but there're no prizes for guessing whose room-door this is hanging on... =)


oh! and I must say this. Just as Cherise gave Adrian a "baptism" of her "pee-in-the-air" act, Emma did the same antic the moment Adrian, Jasmine and Cherise went home... hehehe.... now I have to watch out for such antics by Emma during her nappy changes.. hahaha!

What beautiful eyes!
Yeah, we always find it so amazing that babies seem to be able to find their fave position themselves. hehe... Joejoe's used to be sleeping with his bottom sticking up. haha.
