The Confinement

Almost every chinese women who just gave birth had to undergo confinement. Luckily for me, my confinement did not strictly follow the traditional confinement. I got to shampoo my hair and bathe with the chinese herbs. Yes I did have to eat those confinement meals and drink DOM and chicken essence. Otherwise still bearable except I kept perspiring. Maybe that helps me to slim down quite fast.

My mother-in-law helped me in my confinement with the baths, meals and washing clothes and of couse with Max when she came over. Most of the time during the 3 months I took care of Max. I enjoyed it and treasure the 3 months very much as I knew I wont be able to spend this much quality time with him when I returned back to work.

简介

每个华族妈妈们多多少少得坐月子。幸好我的并不完全依照传统。我可以洗头,用草药洗澡。当然得吃月子餐,喝鸡精,喝DOM 。一切都可以忍受,只是整天老是冒汗。或许那帮助我减去不少肥肉。

除了帮我准备洗澡,食物,洗衣,每当我的家婆过来时她也帮我照顾乐轩。不然,那三个月的假期,都是我一个人照顾,因我想好好利用那短短三个月的时间陪伴宝宝既培养感情。


Below are some pictures that I took.


Hmm not sure whether he is crying or laughing haha...

不知宝宝是在笑或哭?









Tried to capture his bad habit of sticking out his tongue

宝宝有个坏毛病,就是老是申舌头。








First time eating pacifier. But later lost interest in it. That is good in a way.

第一次吃“嘟嘟”的样子。过后就不爱吃了,也好。
