The time has come again…. Time for horrible hair days… for months…
I didn’t record this event after Donald’s birth, but I did for Toria’s birth, because the hair loss after Toria was HORRIFYING. (see Post Partum Hair Loss Episode 2). Now, this is to record for post-Lizzie.
25/3, Lizzie is 3.5mths old, that day, I [...]

Previous Experience
Donald was breastfed for 2 years, Toria for 1.5 years.

Whenever she gets a running nose or cough, it will slowly become a full blown [...]

I was supposed to be discharged on the 18/12, but since I felt very well, and Daddy and the kids wanted me to come home soon, so I got Dr Chin to approve my early discharge. The delivery fee for Elizabeth came up to be slightly over $7K, much much cheaper then Toria’s, which was [...]

Victoria was delivered through c-section, GA, so Daddy didn’t have to stay in the OT.
This time, I am planning to deliver Elizabeth [...]
