i drive today! super excited. yesterday brought baby darius to polyclinic for his jaundice follow up. his jaundice level have drop from 183 to 129, a very big improvement! realli is breastmilk jaundice. but as it have not drop to below 100, doctor would want to see baby darius again. but don't need to do anymore blood test, just check using the eyes only (: went back to office to do my leave application and submission of documents also. was told that as long as i've hit 37weeks of pregnancy, irregardless of whether hospital have given me MC or hospitalisation leave and deliver without going back to office and work, it would be deen as maternity leave. so i was given hospitalisation leave from 1st to 10th july and i delivered on the 11july.

my 37weeks start on the 4th july. hence it meant that my maternity leave would start from the 4th july onwards. previously i told my boss i would like to take a total of 12weeks, of which 8 weeks is paid while another 4 weeks unpaid. so HR department help me to count and told me that if i take 12 weeks, it would b until 25 september only. she said that if i wan, i can take up to 16weeks. so after considering i asked her if i take 16weeks, when would i need to come back to work, she sae that my leave would be till 23 october. so told her for the itme being would settle for 16 weeks and i would submit the application. abt to leave and jackson came back. so i went to ask him isit ok that i take 16 weeks instead of 12 weeks. understand that he is also in a difficult position, so i told him if cannot, i would continue wif my 12 weeks, if can, then i take 16weeks, im ok. and he give wae saying that why not we go in between and take 14weeks. so tat means im going back to work on the 10 october.

baby darius took his 2nd hep b jab yesterday also. he's a brave boy who only cried for 5 secs and after that quieten down. hug him and walk around, he actually fell asleep. my brave lil boy (: have started to go back to breastfeeding since yesterday. but still mixing wif formula because i feel so bad that he always have to accept the sudden change. sudden change of no more BM to FM and then sudden change from FM to BM? he's just a baby. dun wanna make him feel confused and upset. so nw im doing half half.

this morning brought baby darius to KKH for his dental appt. bcos his appt is in the morning at 915am, requested car from dad as in the earli mornin i take cab, there will be extra charges which will come up to b super expensive. but if i take public transport, it will b super crowded. sis and father sae okie and let me drive. brother haf to reach school by 9am, hence my dad sae he can hitch a ride since his sch is nearby. i can drop him off outside KKH and he can take bus to his sch, which is abt 2 bus stop awae onli. supposed to leave at 8am, but my brother sae, i have never drive so far awae before and also driving alone without my father, scare i will b slow turtle and asked to leave earli at 730am. and we reach at around 815am lor! super earli. went to mac and have my breakfast after that went to the clinic for his check. dentist says that still don't feel any teeth underneath. so most likely is just a gum bump that's swollen but not posing any threat to him. so doesn need to worriew much. gave an open date for 1yr later for his first dental check up.
