i feel so happy today.. manage to bath Z half successfully without him crying. This is what happen:
he is awake when bring him to bathroom, on the way there, tok to him to let him know that i'm going to bath him...
once inside, keep on toking to him (he is ok, and look at me with eyes big big), is only when my MIL want to help me undress him and the first thing she tried to take off is his mitten, that is when he start to wail loudly.. thus i asked MIL not to take off his mitten.. but no matter how i coax him, he still cry.. therefore, have to wash his bum and hair quickly and i put him into the bath tub (with both his mittens and booties on and leg enter first). I keep on toking to him and telling him what is happening, then slowly he stop and look at me eyes big big.. Then i slowly take off his mittens and booties and start to bath him.. through out, i assure him that mummy is here, mummy is holding you, don't be scared...is only inside the bath tub, he didn't cry.. therefore, i'm very happy with the result.
I'll like to thank vivi/pearly/pongzai/gin and all those mummies who had given me your advise..
Gin,
i think what your CL told you about bathing baby, it somehow works i think.. coz today didn't manage to see whether it works successfully or not coz Z cried before putting him inside the bath tub.. but no worries, will keep on trying and see how is it.. is a kind of achievement for me....

Elmo,
i didnt shave Z's hair during his 1st month, only cut a bit.. coz my HB don't want him to be botak during his 1st month celebration. And moreover, during his 4th mth, still need to cut.. but i dunno whether my HB will want him to be botak at his 4th month.
Pink
can PM me your number so that if i lost my way, can call you.. thanks
