The Lives of 2 beautiful souls + 1 more..*love*

And so Auni had her immunisation yesterday..

Rotavirus was given orally first which she wailed and squirmed and wriggled..Poor Doctor.. :P

Next was her 2nd dose of 5 in 1..

My Mummy aka Wan had to hold her down..She cried bloody murder(even before the injection!)..Even the doctor was surprised at my lil girl's strength..Hehehe!! One second after the injection, Auni stopped crying..What a super baby!! She does not have the fear of needles like her Ummi.. :)

As she pushed Wan and struggled when being held down, Doctor said that she is tenacious, which means that 'holding or tending to hold persistently to something, such as a point of view'..I think its cos her Abah listened to Tenacious D when Ummi was pregnant..Hahaha!! Doctor also said being tenacious is a good thing cos if Auni is passionate about something, she will go all the way for it and insyaAllah she will be very successful in future..How can I not be happy when I heard that.. :)

Oh, before she was injected, her weight was taken..Auni now weighs 5.45kg at 4 months and 5 days..Hmmm..She is at the 10th percentile..Should I be concerned? I am now..Should I be more concerned? Doctor didn't comment about her weight so I guess it is ok..I know b-fed babies tend to be leaner and Auni is a girl, so she will not be as heavy as a baby boy, her age..Hmmm..I am still concerned..As long as she is healthy and still gaining weigth(tho not much), I should not be so worried..But still..Hmmm..

And one more thing I was concerned with was when the Doctor saw Auni sucking her thumb..Doctor told me that it is best I let Auni suck a pacifier than her thumb..She told me why..

The nail of her thumb will not grow properly.
The epidermis of her thumb will become thinner.
The saliva all around her thumb will cause rashes on her face(it has already happened!! :( ) and it is not hygenic.
It is easier to wean of her pacifier than her thumb..

I told her that my main concerns with a pacifier are that Auni will get hooked on it and that it will affect her oral(teeth and jaw) development..Doctor told me to use pacifier when only needed and to pull it out more as she grows older..Using pacifier will not affect her oral development..

*sigh*

I have been avoiding letting Auni use the pacifier..I hate it when people tell me to use it due to hearsays..I will only listen to the Doctor..If she says its better to, then I will..

*sigh*

So off we went, hunting for a perfect pacifier..

Darn it!!!

What a range!!!!

I do not believe that there was so many kinds of pacifiers!! Silicone, rubber..Some have age limits..

I spent a good 15 mins going through all the pacifiers till I chose the one best for my girl..

This is what I picked.. :)

Auni sucked at it and spat it out..

Hahaha!!!

Her left hand was covered with a mitten(one gloved or rather one mitten-ed Auni Jackson..Hahaha!!) and she was given the pacifier for the night..Throughout the night, she kept waking up cos her pacifier dropped out..Bah!!

Today, she was still given the cold turkey treatment..That resulted in her being soooo cranky!! ARGH!!!

My Mummy told me the cold turkey treatment is too harsh..I should wean her off her thumb and introduce the pacifier slowly..

*sigh*

Mitten off!!

For now, at least..

Thankfully, she is slowly accepting the pacifier, only when her left hand has a mitten on..She hates everything silicone, esp her bottle teats!!

Hahaha!!

Ok, gtg now..My lil cranky princess is dancing with her Abah and I wanna join..

This is my fav pic for now..

The loves of my life.. :*

Toodles!
