Today, Fri 22 Jan 10, was En Xi's first visit to the Pediatrician.
I truly understand why parents are usually late for their gatherings or functions.
Her appointment today was at 1045am at Paragon
(too expensive for us, think we probably won't go there again.)
630am: Mummy and Daddy woke up for first feed of the day. 715am: Mummy rested.
8 to 930am: Mummy and Daddy started to get ready the items needed to bring out etc. Mummy ate breakfast. Mummy and Daddy feeling rushed as time was running late. CL helped to bath En Xi.
930 to 10am: Second Feed of the day.
1015am: Mummy, Daddy, En Xi and Grandma left house for Paragon.
There was a jam due to the heavy rain and En Xi could not get to sleep in the car seat. She only slept when the car started to move smoothly on the expressway and in Mummy's arms. She wet her diapers too but we couldn't change her in the car.

1115am: We reached the clinic. En Xi cried again and her diapers were changed. She was also fed.
1145am: She was examined by the doctor.
(Thank God! She gained weight after the discharge from the hospital and had only very slight jaundice! We really thank God for His grace 'cos we were so worried about her having jaundice and not feeding well as Mummy's supply didn't seem enough.)
12pm: We went to Metro in Paragon to see if Grandma could get En Xi really small clothes but Mothercare's clothes were still not small enough. Grandma wanted to just get 1-3 pieces that will fit her nicely for these two weeks.

1215pm: We left Paragon. Again, traffic jam. Daddy says to not come to this Pediatrician again. Hard to find parking, expensive parking and always heavy traffic.
1230pm: En Xi cried again. Mummy tried feeding her for a while, gave up when En Xi seems sleepy. Mummy placed En Xi in the car seat and she slept all the way home and continued sleeping at home.
Mummy and Daddy was so tired by one short outing. Mummy's not going to go out for quite a while until confinement is really over, body's really weak.
