mums know best

I've a few friends who have blogs on their babies - some before they were even born! It's like an anticipation for the baby's arrival. I love to read them coz i get to see how much their little ones have grown, and the happy/funny insights into their lives as an Amazing Trio! Despite my "not liking kids much" (unless they are cute), through their blogs, i'm beginning to see that maybe kids DO perfect a family. U'll even learn to sympathize with them if there's any mishaps like a bump or ailment - how they are coping with it, and feeling (esp the mothers who will be most heartbroken).

Now that the baby is inside of me, should i ought to be the one who knows best??? A few weeks ago, I started to feel him move - kinda like "butterflies in my stomach" - but i really dont know what is going on inside! Can baby really feel what i'm feeling, hear what i hear? Is he hungry? Haha...

Elvis thinks that i will be a lazy mum - discounting the kid of things...
Eg 1. When i told him that some people have told me not to feed the baby at night, so that the baby can be trained to sleep through the night, he says that i'm just trying to find the easy way out.

Eg 2. When i told him that i liked those strollers (like the one on the picture...sooo pretty huh!) coz its material is thin and not too hot in our climate (or use it during summer in Shanghai), he says i'm trying to save the trouble of carrying a heavy stroller. BUT, i seriously think that the kid will feel hot and sticky in those heavily-padded strollers leh... (And they were the only styles we had back in the 70s) Besides, i'm not referring to buying it now for a newborn baby! It's more for toddlers/bigger kids ma... ;p

I sometimes think that Elvis will be the one who fusses over our kid non-stop!

Daddy knows best!
Mummy says, "Phew!" ;)
