I have no internet since yesterday evening and it is really stressing me up as I need to have internet for my work and also of course, leisure.
Hopefully, the biggest internet provider in Malaysia will do something soon and make it permanently good cause I have had many report numbers up-to-date and still, nothing has improved and the problem has only got worse.
Sulk.. sulk..

Malaysia Baby, Children & Parents Expo 2010
28th Nov 2010 (Sunday)
"Pui, I dreamt that our Little Jen won 6th prize in the Photogenic Baby Contest..." Hubby told me in the morning when he woke up. By about mid-day, Hubby was restless and asked if I would like to go anywhere today. We then went to Jusco for shopping with Little Jen.
Then, by about 4pm, we were home and I was feeling very impatient already. "Hubby, no one called you?", I asked Hubby. The lady at the booth mentioned that they would call if we were selected as the Top 10 winners for the Photogenic Baby Contest.
I then kept thinking aloud to Hubby.. Is the newspaper too crumpled that they could not see our details clearly and that is why they cannot contact us?.. Or did Hubby state his handphone number wrongly in the form?.. Or are we in the Top 3 and it is such a difficult decision that they are still deciding and thus, cannot call us yet?.. Or did they forget to submit Little Jen's picture for the contest?.. I ended up dozing off in bed.
Hubby woke me up at about 5pm and pestered me to go for a jog with him. So, there we went to Bukit Jalil for a jog with Little Jen in his stroller.
It was already 6.30pm when Hubby suddenly received a call from a stranger to tell that Little Jen made it to the Top 10! So, we flew from Bukit Jalil to Mid Valley, to make it for registration at 6.45pm.
They finally started the prize-giving ceremony by about 7.30pm. The Emcee gave away all the 7 consolation prizes and Little Jen was the 3rd prize winner!
After all that, I am still wondering if Little Jen actually knows that he had won a prize. Our Little Jen won a ground arrangement in Shanghai/Gui Lin China for Hubby and I.
How sweet!

Malaysia Baby, Children & Parents Expo 2010
27th Nov 2010 (Saturday)
Hubby and I rushed to the Malaysia Baby, Children & Parents Expo 2010 by about 10.30am armed with our cut-out forms from The China Press and also Sin Chew Daily. Hubby filled in the forms and dropped one of them in the Lucky Draw box while I queued up to collect the free Appeton goody bag.
By then, many families were already queueing up as well for their 2000 goody bags. Hubby and I then took a walk at the exhibition area on the right side of the hall. Halfway, Hubby gave up pushing the stroller and offered to just stand at one corner and toyed with his new gadget, the DSLR camera. There were just so many pregnant mummies around and Hubby did not want to risk bumping into any one of them with the stroller.
Little Jen and I both continued to scan every booth. Disappointingly, I could not manage to find any pretty baby slings and nothing appealed to me as I had almost everything for Little Jen already.
I then went on to the other side of the hall and again, to no avail. I could not find any pretty baby slings! Frustrated, I walked out of the exhibition area to look for Hubby when I saw a group of people with numbers and the Photogenic Baby's Forms in the hands. I handed my form and got number 570. The current waiting number was 525 and I was asked to wait for an hour and half for our turn.
Hubby and I went for lunch with Little Jen and quickly went back to the hall. Too bad, we were asked to wait for another half an hour and then another hour and half...zzzz...and guess what Hubby ended up doing?
He was at the stage area in the exhibition hall next door, adjusting his camera while waiting for Miss Babelicious to cat walk down the stage! Guess he was too bored with Mr. Family Man already :)
Finally by about 4.30pm, it was our turn for the photo shoot BUT we had to wait for about another hour and half for the selection of pictures. And, to print out 3 pieces of 4Rs costed us RM50!
I just had to bring back some pictures since Little Jen smiled so sweetly at the camera :)

Mummy Losing Teeth
Yesterday night I dreamt that I lost 3 of my teeth and one of them is my previous front top tooth. I was so sad and embarrased and was kept thinking about what caused the teeth to fall out so easily. I realised that it might be due to my over-abundant milk supply that caused me to lose too much calcium and thus, causing my teeth to fall out one by one.
Since, there was nothing that I could do, I was already thinking about getting dentures. No regrets though since it was my choice to feed my son and give him my best. For him, losing teeth also would not be too much of a problem.
Mummy will feed you exclusively for another 2 months at least :)

Breastfeeding Baby When Having a Fever
On Nov 1st (Fever - Can I breastfeed?), I had fever and I went against the Doctor's advice to not breastfeed my little boy. I was not sure if I can continue to breastfeed but it is definitely worth taking a bet.
Good to announce that up-to-date, he has never been sick and is as healthy as a roaring tiger. Well, yes, he is making noises like a roaring tiger almost about the same time daily - mid-morning and after dinner-time.
So, I guess that the suggestions I got online are true - Breastfeed your baby even when you are down with a fever. That way, he will get your antibody and then be resistant to the germs. Just make sure that the Doctor gives you medicine which are safe for your baby since you will be breastfeeding.
The good thing about breastfeeding during a high fever on my side was that I could sleep while he fed. If I do not feed, I will have to pump instead, which will be a lot more cumbersome. This was very important as I needed my rest and I was just too dizzy to sterilise my pump, sit to do the pumping, wash the pump and store the milk.
