Confinement Week

Wow... taking care of a new born baby wasn't an easy job, i learnt to changed diapers, carrying a baby in a proper way, bottle feeding, wrapping baby so that he can felt more secured and lots of stuff to learn, trust me it was 10 times tougher then carrying an air tank walking to the pier. Well that was tough during the first week and u'll get it handy the times go on.

Sleep like a baby
 

For Joan, she was busy doing her confinement as this is a must for a conventional chinese like us.  Cut the story short , i had found her a vegetarian confinement lady, Yea... vegetarian means she had no chicken or any meat for that particular week. This is what she wanted but only for a week. The confinement lady (罗姐)had teach me lots of things as well. Beside preparing food for Joan, she looked  after our baby, shower him, feed him and she never stop asking Joan to breast feeding our boy, talking how great is that breast feeding.  I can see that Joan was exhausted feeding Micah and using the breast pump was tiring too. Thumbs up for you Joan and love you so much!
