This baby of mine looks set on her way to be breaking all records... from the delay in growing her teeth to her now learning to walk only at 7 months.
Sarah holds the record at starting to walk at 10 months. With Hana already standing and trying to walk, she does look set to break her sister's record!
A mama's world as this mama struggles through balancing parenthood with all the other roles she's got to play.

Toothless
She is turning 8 months old in 4 days time but is still absolutely gummy and toothless! While many others her age are sprouting teeth!!
Oh well... we really thought she would not be able to try out the various biscuits I have already gotten her but she has put those gums to really good use, grinding away at her food!
And not to lose out, the older sister has also decided to go toothless! Something I have been waiting for in a long while considering that the gap between the 2 front teeth were showing signs of decay.

To sit or not to sit?
After I gave birth to Daniah, I took 2 years to lose 15 kg. This time round, I seriously wonder how long I am going to take. Not only am I having to deal with the weight, I have to also deal with a very potruded tummy that is seriously being very stubborn about going down. So much so, that wearing a corset has become the uniform of the day.
There was one time when I was waiting for a cab by the road when a cab went out of its way, despite having an "On Call" sign to pick me up. The dear uncle said that he took pity on me cos I was pregnant and yet had to wait in the sun for a cab. I really did not dare to tell him that I was pregnant, for fear he would ask me to get off his cab!!
The dilemma faced on a daily basis, now that I am a commuter on the Mert, is whether I should take up that seat offered to me. Who says Singaporeans do not give up seats? I have received a good share of offers... funny considering that I did not really get one that one time I had to take the dear Mert to work when I was REALLY pregnant. As opposed to now, when I am just well uhm... potruding! I think it is difficult when the rest of me is relatively slim in contrast to my tummy which makes me look so pregnant.
So to take the seat or not? I did not want to embarrass those who offer and yet felt seriously guilty takeing cos it felt like I was cheating all these who have nicely been so gracious to me.
So, to resolve the guilt, yes I am going to go on a diet, even it means I am going to walk 3 km or more a day!
