    The Chinese rules may be a bit overwhelming BUT I have to say, you will really appreciate the confinement rules. It's something I missed out being away here in Switzerland. I love how you are REALLY cared for in Asia and you can then focus just one recovering, resting and connecting with baby. With the superstition for renovation, it's probably also just to make sure mom is not over worked and disturbed during the more fragile months. So exciting! Remember to trust your body and yourself, you're both going to be great parents! 💛

      I’m the opposite. I absolutely hated it. When I had my first I spent extra time being looked after and cared for etc and I wanted to go home so badly. After my second I gave birth just before midnight and before 1am I was walking around restless begging the them to let me go home by day break. They couldn’t of course but I was out of there and back in my home as soon as possible. Same with my last. I hate being cared for I just wanted to take care of my babies and myself in my own comfortable way.

      Tbh it seems very archaic? Maybe it's just because I'm from Europe and we stopped doing confinement centuries ago but shouldn't it be personal choice? Some women might like it but I think some might find it makes postpartum depression worse. Whatever the mother wants should be what happens. Like it's not okay to shame individuals for cultural practices but I think we should be able to criticise still.

    My aunt experienced the same thing. She and her husband was struggling with conceiving for a few years. We were so happy when she got pregnant. One time, she couldn't feel the baby moving in the evening so she went to the hospital the next day to check. It turned out that the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby's neck. She also found out that she had gestational diabetes. We lost him at 5 months through the pregnancy. Moral of the story is that pregnant women should always trust their feelings and go to the hospital whenever you are unsure of your baby's health

    Ham is super dangerous for dogs! Most meats are if not prepared specifically, but ham is super high in fats and salts. I have a dog like Rosie and she had a bite of ham one Christmas. It caused internal bleeding and we were in the doggy ER all Christmas. Be careful !

    Tip for Rosie's blood sugar- if you notice she's not eating rub Karo syrup or honey on her gums it will keep her glucose levels from dropping dangerously. My vet recommended this to me for my little dogs.

    Tay! Sorry for the off topic comment but I just saw another content creator who gave birth almost a year ago talk about this and I thought maybe it can help you in the future or any other people who might read this; So this content creator revealed that she hadn't been able to breastfeed past the third month because her body simply stopped producing. She hadn't said anything because she felt ashamed and a bad mother because "how can she be a mother or a woman if she can't even breastfeed?" I re-read that part several times as it didn't sit right with me. Being a woman and a mother is so much more than breastfeeding. In my family there has also been women who had to switch to formula at some point and kept quiet about it out of shame. We have to understand this whole shaming women for what their body can and can't do comes from a long history of misogyny, of shaming women for "not having hips wide enough for birth", of "being too lean to become a mother", "working too much instead of being a matriarch" (things I've heard all my life thrown at women around me). You cannot control every single little thing that your body can do to provide to your child, and that's okay. And it's okay to be open about it as long as you're comfortable cause there are hundreds and thousands and millions other women who are going or been through the same. You're not alone and you're not a bad mother.

I follow you since since many years and I'm so happy and excited by your pregnancy, Tom and you deserve it so much. I'm looking forward to you meet your little boy. Love and kisses from France. 😘

    If Rosie were a human I bet she would be this really independent woman who likes her own space but also cuddles a lot with the people she loves. She is kind of quiet and reserved but super intelligent and always knows what's going on. She is very structured, perhaps on the spectrum and has these special interests she gets super into. She loves cooking because she is a picky eater due to her stomach problems but that also means she loves to cook for people and socialises with them in that way. Plus she is really short and sometimes gets overlooked by people until they get to know her and see what a gentle, sensitive, intelligent and kind human she is! As for a job I think she would excell at anything she sets her mind to.
    I love Rosie and I love you! Have a wonderful New Year and all the best for your family xx

    Dogs are extremely intolerant of pork - which is probably why Rosie didn't take to the ham very well. They're just not great at processing it.

      He is not supposed to flip this soon... Maybe check with a doctor, rolling from 1-2 months can also be an early sign of cerebral palsy. This sort of early rolling over is usually quite stiff, with tight muscles.

They examination includes growth checkups, overall health and sometimes recommended vaccinations. He is absolutely fine, just a very strong little boi. 🥰 the next examination is in two weeks. 😊
