How Is He and My New Headache

Bray's review was pretty positive. Though still coughing, he still turns blue, but of course, it is getting lesser and the phlegm seems to have dissolved quite a bit too...he's appetite is growing, at times he can drink more than 100ml and his feed is like 2 hourly or even hourly. *smiles*

As for my new headache, my little girl, is getting quite cranky whenever she has to go to school. *sigh*

After talking to the teachers and reflecting ourselves, the most possible reason is - she needs more attention.

She loves Bray for sure. We love her as much too...just that Bray is getting more attention now as he is unwell and we'll rush to him whenever he coughs and carries him in our arms. We are worried that he'll gag or choke himself which could endanger his life if we do not take good care.

Now going to school (leaving us) is giving her lotsa insecurity. She might feel that we won't miss her and she kept saying she wanted to stay at home with Mommy and Bray...she wants to stay with us and will miss us.

Seriously, it's time we come up with something to please her. Coming next is her Barney concert, Hubby and I will bring her out without Bray, but she was pretty unwilling to leave her little bro behind. I hope we can spend good time with her and assure her that she is still a darling to us.

Looks like there's a challenge for me ahead...

Having a new kid is always difficult for siblings.

Try to get your parents or inlaws to spend more time with your litte girl, so she does not feel "unloved"

Also explain to her that she is mummy's right hand, her wing "woman" and mummy really needs her to help mummy, because mummy feels so overwhelmed by having a new baby. Let your little girl play second mummy to Bray. It'll help foster the bond between the two!

Good luck
