2 weeks in Melaka

One month confinement has finally come to an end (1wk+ ago). I was confined back in my own comfortable house with mum and baby Sarah. Thereafter, we decided to go back to Melaka for 2 weeks, ie till 4th May. Hubby went to Singapore for a day-trip for a food exhibition (ain't sure why he's there for, but getting exposure is one of it of course, besides taking pictures!) and after that, he will be busy, attending a 4-day conference until Sunday. He's sure gonna miss us! :)

The decision of going back to Melaka came when i thought... baby Paul (not a baby anymore, but so used to calling him that! :p) would need his mama at this time (since mama has been away for 1 month already), and everyone else in the family misses her so much. She would probably missed Melaka too by now. On the other hand, i'm still not confident in taking care of baby Sarah alone and would really appreciate mum's help at this time... and i still get to eat mum's cooking! This little princess is still soooo fragile, and so demanding... i dont think i am able to cope just yet, so why not go back to Melaka for 2 weeks?! It'll also be an opportunity to spend some quality time with my family back in Melaka. Oh... and Mother's Day is just around the corner! We could probably celebrate this special occasion early since all the mothers in the family are together (hehe... me included! :)). WOW! Looks like so many birds killed with just one stone! That's GREAT!

After the 2 weeks are over, then it's time to spend with my mum-in-law and baby Sarah's cousins in Kajang house, so that baby Sarah will get used to staying there during the weekdays when i resume working! Hmmm... sounds like a good plan! hehehe... Would make sure that this one month is spent wisely, esp in taking care of baby... oh yes, my final month of crash course in motherhood!

Hey! Don't worry. You'll do just fine. Motherhood comes with responsibilities which makes us worry unnecessarily sometimes. But you're so blessed to be surrounded by family members who supports you and a hubby who is so patient. You can definately be a great mum.
