Life made simple

Life as a mum has taught me many things - your life isnt that precious anymore. But in a good way because now, everything I do, I have to think about Leia first. Being a mum really made me change for the better like what my Hus says.

I wanted to get a confinement nanny to help out, which my mum there after insist not to as she is a nurse cum trained midwife, so she knows better. However, due to some posting issues, she couldn't take leave and thus, I'm left on my own. I almost broke down, without hus knowing, but like I said, with a daughter, you must be strong! I keep telling myself that if I collapsed, what will happen to my daughter. So yes, I put on a brave front and did what TMC taught me - from changing diapers, to feeding, to pumping of breast milk, to bathing even. 

I'm proud to say that I'm a mother of a 12 day old daughter, and I looked after her solely by myself! :) Yes, it very tiring. Nowadays, I'm having only 1.5hrs of naps every 5hrs of being awake (this is also because I must continue with the pumping of breast milk every 3-hourly).

My appetite has dropped, and I think due to the massages that I'm getting from the massage lady, I've somewhat slimmed down. I haven't tried on my usual clothing due to the stitches. So I really can't wait for them to recover and don on my shorts, tank tops etc.

Call me insane, but after my stitches are healed, I'll start my jogging regime! Hahaha!! I've been jogging twice a week pre-pregnancy, and this is going to continue no matter what. I'm THAT determined when it comes to slimming down, that's for sure! :) 

This is me, 4 days after giving birth: 


Hope I can regain my previous figure!
