2nd Princess


It has been a few months since my last post. I had delievered to my second princess on the 3rd of June 2009. I'm thankful to God that I had her delievered safe and sound. And I'm glad that this time round I didn't suffer in great pain! It's just took 5 to 10 minutes to deliever her and with 2 times of contraction. Hopefully, with the 3rd or more to come will be like this.


With the 3rd?? Yup, my hubby wants 3 to 4 children. To me, if I have 2, it is more than enough cause there are lots of issue that I have been thinking of. And of course, the most important issue will be the financial and time.


Well, financial is important in terms of giving her the comfort and safe environment. It is also important in terms of educating her and exposing her to all kinds of talent. I wouldn't want my child to be a genius but at least, I have done my part of responsible in giving and exposing her to certain types of development.


And for sure, I'm worried too about the time that I have to spend with them. I'm a working mother and I only spend a few hours with them in a day. With 2 children now, my hubby and I really work hard and think hard on how to take care of them, how to educate them, what should we do to make them feel love and so on. After the birth of our second daughter, we found that our elder daughter is kinda jealous and she is not getting used to the new environment as we have a new member in our family. We tried lots of method to make her feel comfortable with the new environment. In the end, we have decided to send our youngest daughter to nanny for full day and the elder daughter goes for half day. This is to allow us to spend quality time just with our elder daughter. I spend time with her in the morning and it is my hubby's turn during the night time. As for my youngest daughter, I really spending quality with her during the night time even during wee hours when feeding her. Luckily, my elder daughter do understand this and she won't disturb me when I was with her sister.


Things are getting better after a month. SyuenSyuen started to adapt the new style of life and she can accept our new family member. She starts to carry her meimei around with my help, kissing her whenever she feels wanted to and now, she is a good helper to me in taking care of her meimei. She knows how to comfort her when she is crying, she knows how to wipe her meimei's mouth, she knows how to swing her meimei in the sarong and so on. It is always so so sweet to see her taking care of her meimei and her meimei will smile at her. I like that feeling and hopefully this kind of feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
