I think, I think, she is teething..I know I know. It sounds kinda extreme that she starts teething now but she is showing signs.
1)Spot of white on her gums. Felt it, it was hard and well have to admit her bottom front gum has also shown signs such as the teeth shapings.
2)Growing increasingly fond of biting at her bottle teat..gosh.
3)Constant biting of fingers
4)Drooling
The above signs have lead me to believe that she is teething. So there. If anyone like to tell me more signs to lookout for please share here. It would really help.
Okay, in my previous post I talked about going back to the Expo for the motherhood fair and I did.
Oh yea, I bought a medela manual pump cos my PIS tube connector broke. I thought it might take a while but who knows it took them 30mins to fix it back with a new cover...So I think I will be selling off my medela manual. I only used it once and less than 30mins somemore. Brand new!Should be posting that along with some other items on some forums soon..Just as soon as I get my hands to taking pics of all the stuff.
Expo..-A Day of adventure..Refer to next post.This will be long

Shopping @ Expo
The motherhood fair that I went to on thursday was alright I guess. I mean I am going back today (since its after 12mn) to get more stuff. Diapers and some misc stuff that I had missed out eariler.
Anyway, really tempted to get the baby swimming tub for her. Undecided between the one 80x80 or 90x70 cos if I get the 90x70 I can get in with her.hehe But M has been so unreasonable. At first we wanted to sign her up for baby swimming sessions with hwa xia, plus after the swim there is a baby massage you can sign up for at $10 per session. Well she said she was too small, and then she may get sick easily. Wait till 3mths. Now Elayna's 3mths, she says H1N1...so I say get the baby swimming tub, $70 or $75 depending on which one we get. Safe and not to worry about mixing outside. I can do the massage for her. But now say waste of money. I recall hubby telling me his colleague had bought the tub for his son as well as seems like it was quite good in helping baby development. Why is it that M cannot see it this way? I have already told her that it will help her but does she listen? Never, she says its a waste of money, well its money well spent if Elayna grows and develops well adjusted and stronger, fitter. Let her learn how to develop her physical and mental co-ordination through this swimming activity. Its never easy, and I think that its fair to say that I would like her to be able to get the advantage that she can at this early age. Wait till she is older then start to stress her too late. Now through fun she can develop, y not?
Anyway, if we do buy I think it will be well worth it. Going back later for John little and popular @ expo as well. Will be spending the day there. But before that have to go to Toh guan to get my Medala PIS fixed. the cover with the connecting tube broke so have to change the cover. $65 for the change. I might as well get them to look at the motor as well. I went to First Few Years at KKH, they also charge the same but they cannot check the motor and they say might have to wait. Going back to the dealer 30mins, should be okay. Of course I prefer to go back to technical centre. Will update on how it was at the TC. But I really like my medala PIS, the pump is good and its quite strong. I bought the manual medela, really regret. Now I think I want to sell second hand. Only used once. Will be letting go of it soon.
Will update more soon about my shopping and repair adventures!

A Spot of white
Elayna has started to sprout tooth! A HA! Such a surprise....I thought babies will have teeth only 4months and older. But this little lady started at slightly over 3mths. Its on her right side and thought I was over reacting when I saw her start to bite at her fingers 2 weeks back. I let her bite her fingers but when she started to suck i would pull her hand out. She starts to stick her entire fist into her mouth...haiya...I will just pull it out and tell her Please don't put your hand into your mouth.
Then y do I let her bite? hahaha..cos even if she bite she will stop once her teeth grows out. Pain mah! So she will learn and lesson and stop biting..hahahaha...I am so evil...

Having Help & other things
I now have a maid to help me take care of Elayna when I get back to work. Its thanks to my aunt that I have this extra help. After being here for about 2weeks it seems like she knows my baby girl well enough. That's good thing I will say. But now that I have put her on FM, my daytime milk supply has run low. I am still continuing with nighttime BM feeds but I get so worried that its not enough. Like last night, she woke up at 11am and I gave her some milk, 1am, 3plus and then 6plus. I wonder if my milk is not enough.
I really hope that she can sleep longer but I also wish she can continue her nighttime BM feeds. The dilemma. Well as long as she is growing well, that is the most important thing. But I will work hard towards the nighttime feeding. It will be tough for me once I get back to work, but all along the main idea was having the best for her. So I will keep that notion in mind and keep to it. =D

Ah HA!- Clackity Clack
My baby girl has learnt how to do the clucking sound with her tongue. hahaha..even her granma was impressed. She started out trying and was licking at her lips loudly(look at the pic!) till she finally got it over a few days. About 3days I think..and its so amusing when she finally did! Haha...
Another milestone she reached was her managing to turn. Just the other day, she turned herself to the side and she turned herself to her tummy and got really angry frustrated...she actually does not like being on her tummy but she feeling frustrated at being left on the bed while I was pretending to sleep beside her. Well, I really wanted to see what she would do, :-P
And she started to turn and finally when she got on her tummy she cried out in frustration..but she turned nonetheless.Initially she was turning from her tummy to her back, cos she really hated being on her tummy but now...hehehe..And she tends to turn on her side more often now. Just the other night, she turned her body 45degress to her side. H & I will have to watch out more often. But I think the dimple pillow actually helps to hold her in the position so that she doesn't overdo the turning when she sleeps. So I have a slight peace of mind and not worry about her suffocating.
I am so looking forward to the motherhood fair coming up this week, I would like to get some great bargains on diapers, clothes, baby items. maybe a booster chair. I have been eyeing the one at www.kidzloft.com.sg for the longest time. Its ex but I think it will last her quite a while. Its a five stage seat so it will last her. I am hoping to find bargains at the fair so crossing my fingers! And the best part is the popular book fair at the same period, more baby books for my baby! YAY!!!
