Colours of my Life

You'll never know what's the future has in store for you. I used to pictured myself as a career woman once. But now, I'm a 24/7 housewife and mom. I managed to work for 2 years though, but lost my job at 6m pregnancy with my 1st child. Since it's so tough to get a new job, I'm just better off at home.

The minute I held & cradle my baby for the 1st time, I couldn't imagine anything that could held me back from being there besides her throughout her growing years. Not for a split second I thought of leaving home for a carrier life anymore.

So that's when my never ending story as a mom begins.. Despite all the hardship I went through raising my kids, I still can stood tall and proudly announce I'm a mom of 2 adorable kids. Never did it occur to my mind that I regretted leaving behind all my years of studying and working. My kids meant more than that.

It's one tough job being a mom n raising your own kids. Every mom has a different story to share. Different child has a different tantrums that will later developed into their personality... I'm still, and forever will be learning and challenging myself to becoming a far more better mom. Many tips I learned and would gladly to share with other moms out there..

Colic/Windy tummy

Both my babies experience bad colic.It's worst when the wind just got mobile in tummy and refuse to 'go out'.I had colic myself as a baby.My mom just let me grow through it.In fact, I still experience it till today.But you know what?It's not easy to let your baby grow through it!It's even worst with my 2nd baby.Sometimes, I do feel like a huge mommy octopus, trying to solve 10 task at the same time!Ironically, I appreciate my mama even more..She went through a whole lot of experience to raise me and other siblings.


I tried almost everything to ease the colic, vapourising ointment, gripe water, etc.A friend of mine recently suggests to drop a few flakes of pounded black pepper on the baby's navel right after birth till it dries off.It'll somehow reduce the wind in the tummy.Will try it on my next child.
