Today – October 14 – is Fighter’s EDD (estimated due date) which is the day he was supposed to be born.
He’s 9 weeks old today, or 2 months and 2 days, but his adjusted age is actually 0 days lolol. The adjusted age is important for preemies because his development needs to be measured against his adjusted age, not his actual age. For example, even if he’s six months old, we have to measure his development against a 4 month old baby.
Which is why we’re not really watching or keeping track of what he’s doing. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about super competitive parents who compare notes about what their babies can do already omg. Luckily we have a valid reason not to compare hahaha.
But I did realize that in the past few days Fighter has been listening to people around him talking. Once the confinement auntie and I were talking above his crib, he was awake and looking from one to the other depending on who was speaking at the moment. Hahahha.
And he’s mad grumpy recently omg. If he’s not sleepy he’s usually in a very sunny mood. But if he’s sleeping or trying to sleep, god forbid if you talk in front of him WTF. He somehow knows the difference between TV sounds and the sounds of real people. We can turn the TV on as loud as we want but if we so much as say two words in front of him, he goes “URGHSFGSHFGSHF” and acts damn annoyed like, “hello? I’m trying to sleep here people.” LOLOL.
Anyway in commemoration of Fighter’s original birthday, I’m spamming my blog with his pictures!
Very cute one, I promise.
Ngawwww
Usually after he calms down from a crying jag, he does this face. -____- Damn funny he looks so suspicious, like “what was that all about?” hahahaha.
Wendy and Qiu came for a day trip last weekend to see Fighter and brought him soooo many clothes! Thank you!!
Most awesome was a music box Qiu found which plays Hey Jude. Thank you Qiu and Wendy and Mike and Josh for making the trip!!!! <3
Even now one week later I think Fighter is already bigger than he is here in Wendy’s arms. :O
Good job, boobies. *thumps chest
Wendy and Qiu were taking turns to hold him. But his face here is like “GET ME AWAY FROM HER” LOLOL sorry ah Babyzilla.
No la hahahha he was actually super cheerful that day cos he got to be cuddled the whole time and fussed over by all the aunties. He shiok la!
This bunch of photos of him melts me every time. T____T He’s especially cute in sleeveless onesies I think! Like gangster baby hahaha.
This set of photos by Wendy who said she’s better at photographing than me or Tim FOL. But really very cute la he looks like a hamburger here so ok la let her win lolol.
(Bibs are still too big for him so we use a towel around his neck. Yellow stains are from him spitting up his vitamins. -_- Lol.)
I think this set was taken by Qiu while I was pumping milk after the auntie bathed him. He hates the bath itself but loves being wrapped up in a fluffy towel and cuddled afterwards. He also likes being cool and fresh hahaha which is exactly like his dad who takes 2424209 baths a day wtf.
My mom insists that Fighter looks exactly like me when I was a baby except his eyes are longer and mine rounder. She sent me some photos so I made a collage. Left is me. Got look alike ah!
And yes, like someone on Instagram said, I am showing you my nipples. Hahhahahaahah.

What’s a confinement auntie? Is that like a nanny or baby nurse? I would love to know more about how that works in Malaysia!
I think Rebeca has a good point– Fat Her genes appearing in the next generation!

Before this were you not gonna have kids? Hehehe
Haha thanks!
Lolol calm down uterus!

Omg I thought the heart thumping only applied to me cos I’m his mom. You also ah! Hahaha
Hahaha problem is the daddy doesn’t have baby pictures being a third son fhl
A confinement lady takes care of both baby and mother during the first 1-2 months after delivery! She basically cooks and prepares special baths for the mom, and takes cafe of the baby so the mother can rest. If it’s a new mom she can learn from the auntie how to care for her own baby too. 🙂
the first photo OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! i laughed when u said he looked like hamburger on he other photos, there’s some truth to it though, a very cute lil hamburger^^
Hahaha if you didn’t mention we wouldn’t have noticed of nipper part!!
Audmygod really got look like hahaha I MISS BB JUDE HOW!!!!!
aiyerrr.. cute daooooo !!!!
yes, fighter looks like you 100%.
Please do a post on confinement! Is it a tradition in Malaysian culture or Chinese in general? What’s the history behind it? It sounds interesting…
omg, just got a postive pregnancy test!! and now looking through these baby pics makes me all teary. Needed to tell someone, without telling family or close by friends! Thanks for lending an ear ^_^ Fingers super crossed that all will work out well, cuz I got PCOS like you, but it took us over three years to get to this point….
Did not know Fighter would have share the same birthday as me @ 14/10….nBut glad to know that he is doing good now and he is getting chubbier and cute!! :DnI think the big eyes inherit from you… haha…
Ya hahahaha
Ahhh congratulations! I don’t know you in real life but I’m so happy for you! Is this your first baby?
@Aud: Yes I did use to comment a lot!nThen I started travelling and didn’t have regular internet access so I stopped commenting *squirms*nHow come you remember me!!!nYou have so many readers and commenters and stalkers (wtf)n
Aud, this isn’t our first baby. Our first guy took us almost 4 years to conceive. I was sure we wouldn’t have another without drastic medical intervention, but alas we lucked out ^_^ Just feeling blessed that we have another chance at being parents. Enjoy every minute with your little guy. They do grow up so so fast!!
