My 4th Checkup!

Waited for almost an hour to see Doctor Yong. I was quite happy while waiting. Nurses and strangers came up to me and commented that i look cute. :)

Just before I went into the doctor's office... my mood changed, I started crying. I guess I could sense danger!! Yessss.... I was given two jabs today on both my thighs. Now one of my thigh is still swollen and red. It was very painful. Still no sign of fever yet. Phew...

As for my growth (3 months 5 days), I now weigh 6.66kgs (above average), height 64.1cm (above average) and head circumference 40.1cm (average).

After mummy complained about my day time behaviour (very fussy and sleep for 5 to 10 minutes each time), doctor Yong told mum that I needed some "training"... meaning to let me "cry it out" till I can sleep on my own. Poor me.... heard mom is going to give it a try sometime next week.... The technique is as follows: On the first day- to let me cry for 5 minutes before calming me. This is to be repeated not more than 3 times a day. Second day - to let me cry longer - 10 minutes and also to be repeated up to 3 times only. Third day - to let me cry even longer! - 15 minutes. This will go on until I can sleep on my own... so cruel.. *sign*
