Confinement

Who created the confinement rules?

1) No air con
2) No shower
3) No washing of hair
4) No stepping out of the house
5) No cold drinks
7) No fruits except apple, and it must not be direct from the fridge

I believe there are many don't s but can't think of them all at the moment. It's a tough 1 month! Told you I am on a "jail term", how to not go out for the whole of 1 month! Jeff doesn't allow me to go out, coz he said I should be nursing my wound and ask me to endure for another.... 20 days!

Following that, Jeff said it is better for baby to stay at home for 1st 3 months as infants have very low immune system. He doesn't want Natalie to come in contact with virus from crowded shopping mall or air borne virus... Meaning what... I cannot go out for 3 months lor! After confinement lady leaves on the 24th January, I will have to take care of Natalie alone. So if she cannot leaves the house, I cannot leave her alone at home, and I cannot go out lar!

CONFINEMENT! Sickening word.

Anyway I am not a person that sticks to unreasonable rules, I showered, I washed my hair, I still sleep in the air condition room.... hehehehehe

Our wedding photo has been replaced by Natalie's photo in his hand phone. So fast!
