Charis & her new toy

Bought by her 爷爷奶奶

1st try with 爷爷奶奶,
she looks scared and cried
2nd try with me
she looks scared and want carry
3rd try with her daddy
she is playing with him!

Exploring the toy







Seems the walker can keep her occupied for a short while
Don't like the idea of using walker though
Beside dear worry of Charis walk on tiptoe in future
I am also worried that Charis will rush too fast and toppler over the walker
At times it can be too fast for us to react
I suppose walkers are dangerous else Canada won't ban the use of walker.
back again, I think it should be alright and harmless for her to use for awhile under our presence.

Why am I worry?

So How Can I Encourage My Baby To Learn To Walk?

Discar the walker (Shall put stopper to it)
Use a playpen or play-centre that is stationary. Alternatively, allow a safe, unrestricted floor space for exploration. (which I am doing now)
Help your baby exercise his muscles e.g. supported standing or cruising. (which I am doing now)
Provide sensory stimulation e.g. baby massage. (which I am doing now)
Provide vestibluar stimulation e.g. rocking, bouncing or swing baby. (which I am doing now)
Breast-feeding may help to strengthen baby's muscles (Unable to do it anymore)

    Hi Cherish, don't worry so much. Come to think, we all grew up with walker (well at least I was) and we are all ok :) As long as you don't put her there for too long.

    Cheers..

Arrival of baby Nicholas

19 April 2021, we welcomed our new member :) he has came to us as a surprised gift. I got to know I was pregnant last Sep, at first it came to me as a shock rather than surprise. Firstly I did not thought that getting conceive is easy, for all previous pregnancy, I have tried ways and means to get pregnant, and now I did not even try and I strike jackpot! Of course, baby equal joy!!! We broken the news to our kids and Charis even cried when she heard it. My pregnancy journey is not a smooth one, at 40 year old, I feel my body is not prepared and weak for this pregnancy. I have bleeding for the whole T2 and pelvic pain for T3. Basically i need more and more bedrest and because I get to work from home due to covid 19, I did not have to travel to work or request any medical leave. 16 April 2021, I am at week 37 plus 4days, during the gynae check, I was already 2cm dilated, I am excited. My inital plan is to induce on 19 April as I am worried that the fliud level will drop after week 38...

Holiday mean FUN!

HAPPY!!! I started to love school holidays more! For 1 reason! To wake up late! Ok, I don’t get to sleep until 自然醒 but it is still a joy to wake up 1 hour later than the usual timing 。。 After all ever since have kids, sleep until 自然醒 is a very much luxury for me   Holiday mean FUN! As a working mommy, I cannot spend whole june holiday with them but I try to take 1 or 2 days leave off work to spend time with them. We have watched Jungle Book together on 27 May after their parent-teacher-meeting. And I hope that I can bring them out once a week to enjoy during this holiday. After having Kolby, we missed out a lot of thing together. Playing with them and bring them to play are 2 different thing. I want to play with them. Have fun with them. That why a helper will be good if someone can help to look after my kopi boy while I bond with my 2 darlings. But now, it is too late to get a helper as kopi boy will sure reject strange faces.   Charis scored well, not hig...
