Latest addition to the family!

Yes Yb had been pregnant for the longest time already and finally the little one had popped out on the 21st Dec 09! Baby Jemaine is slightly over 2 weeks earlier than predicted, however still considered full term at 38 weeks..

Labour was shorter but intense compared to the 1st pregnancy according to Yb.. From the start of labour contraction to birth it took only 6 hr, last time close to 24hr.. Anyway for details on the labour, ask the mum k?

This time round the 1st month is less tiring and less complicated.. Not really because we're more experienced, but really juz we take things more easy now.. We engaged the help of a confinement nanny, costly, but at least we'll not be caught flustered with handling a newborn at the same time having to pay equal attn to the newly promoted bigger sister.. With Janielle, we were very disciplined with keeping to certain routines and practice.. But with Jemaine, Yb decided tat babies r very adaptable.. We can start the routines when she turns 1 month..

As I've said, the nanny is taking care of Jemaine's essentials now.. Feeding, washing, changing diaper, waking up for night feeds, pacifying her cries.. I kinda felt unfair to Jemaine actually.. That I'm not spending enough time with her.. But I guess tat can't be helped really, since yb's still in confinement and so I need to play the main role in taking care if Janielle.. I'll try to make it up to her when she's older bah...

Between the sisters, they're great with each other.. Ok at least janielle seems to be quite excited when she was 1st being introduced to her little sister.. Right now she's quite comfortable with having a baby ard at home.. She didn't seem to mind her presence at all, not even her sister's almost constant crying..

See? I told u Jan doesn't seem to mind meimei at all.. I cant say the same for meimei thou!!! LoL!
