Being a first time mom

As the title suggests, you might have guessed it right I'm officially become a nom as of 18 Feb 2025. Well the thought of it was very scary but exciting. Scary was because I do not know what I don't know and what if I do something wrong and the baby got affected? Then it would become like a mom guilt. Excited because my wonderful hubby and I created this child together. We have given her a nickname called peanut reason being when we go for our monthly ultra-scan the shape is of a shape of a peanut. Today marks the first day of solo parenting as my hubby went back to work. He has taken one month of paternity leave to help me out with adapting together with peanut. To be honest it was quite scary for me being alone together with peanut. I'm lucky enough to get both my mum help to come over to help me out with taking care as well.
Peanut seems to be well behave today almost after every feed, she seems to be off in la la land which is a good thing I do not complain about that I do hope that she stays this way all the way through the night so that both hubby and I got enough rest. Peanut is so well-behaved when there are visitors around. However, once they left, all hell breaks loose. As of now, I'm writing this post when she is taking her nap after her feed, let's hope that I don't jinx it and that.
I was really lucky enough to have my mum and mother in law help to look after our peanut. There was a day where both the mum were here together on the same day I was quite afraid that my mum will be awkward but after a while I think that my mum was kind of settling in with mother in law. I'm not saying that they do not get along with each other but it's more that my mum is a slightly more awkward and introverted person anon takes time to warm up, which is the same as me :)
With the help of both mums, I was able to get quite alot of things done, for example washing of clothes, bathing peanut, and even trimming of peanut nails which was kind of mission impossible without another person help.
Now that my hubby is back to work, I do hope that his colleague do have empathy on him and treat him well, not to give him too much trouble, work load and stress. I know that it's never easy going back to work after an almost one long month break. Hoping for the best for him and the best for peanut as well.
Signing Off to take care of peanut now

Cut, Cut, Cut...

Okay, I had my hair cut today. It does not totally change my overall look a lot. Basically, my hair was a little short than before and I did cut my fringe a little. Well... you should know how little I refer to. My fringe ... I would say that it's still long, it still covers my whole face just that the length of my fringe is about the same as my face. Do I regret it. Er... YA! TOTALLY! right after I cut my fringe short! However, after a while I did not regret as much as before. Before I went for my hair cut, I did search the web on what fringe cut should I get because I really don't know and I dare not try out new hairstyle. I came across this Creaclip that I quite like it a lot! I wish I could get one. After watching the videos, I feel tempted to cut bangs. haha. I want this clip so badly!!!

Valuable Lessons

Focus on your happiness, learn to self care, only then you will be able to appreciate  Cherish, always cherish every single moment with your loved ones, you won’t know what’s gonna happen next, don’t regret People do much more than you think they do, do not assume, people might be going through a difficult times just that you are not aware of  Those are some of the takeaways that I had when I took the wrong move. I felt so broken and torn after that... even until now... I guess I acted that way was because I didn’t want others to judge... I was so torn... but I get it now... it ain’t matter how people judge you, what matters is that it came from within.... I went back because I was worried, because I was scared, and because I was mad and angry for my actions that I did...  one very last thing.... you don’t have to care what the other judge or think... I’m slowly and trying to overcome this part... I hope I’ll learn and get over it.... I hope and pray that everything goes ...
