Finally finish my confinement at my Mum's plc. For now, confinement is like a dirty word to me. Being confined is yes the same as going prison but I think my life is tougher. Yeah i get to eat nutritious food, but you think 老娘 care. At least I believe prisoners are allowed to touch water, move ard freely, go toilet in peace, bathe n wash hair daily plus doesn't hv eyes dat constantly stare at u half naked breastfeeding baby.
Having a baby inside me for 10mths is actually pretty chicken feet when compared to the sufferings by both mum n dad after delivering baby.
Its a whole new learning journey, a chapter that school never impart you. But yet its also a new chapter, a new subject in fact that most mothers would dilligently read up, observe, work hard to reach the Masters. Apart from confinement, breastfeeding was something I thought would be easy too, to me it's all abt perseverance. But NO, I was so wrong, there was so much to learn, so much we need to know, I ended up trying my very best to squeeze in time to google up using my IPhone (Thank you oh Great Lord for smartphone n the Internet) and texting my friends with qns. All that i had'nt expected. Bleeding nipple, blister aerola, boosting breast milk production thru demand n supply, importance of swaddling etc etc.
Taking care of baby seriously give me more satisfaction than any job that I ever had. Compare to our parent days, things are actually much easier for us today. I really salute my Mum man.
