This morning, Elliot was fretting and couldn't sleep for a long long time. So I picked him up, propped him on my shoulder and patted him for a while. He was out like a light in 2 mins flat. He actually likes me!!! Sometimes I lose sight of that when he screams and frets and when I'm unsuccessful in calming him down! At that moment, I just sat there, breathing in the smell of my baby and feeling so much in love with him.

I love my baby!
All that maternalness must have surfaced in a dream when I took a nap a while later. I dreamt that Emmanuel Stroobant (so strange, no idea why him!!) kidnapped Elliot and put him in a little test tube! How come he could fit in there?!?! And in the test tube was a real modern looking garden, complete with a scrolling screen for livejournal updates! I must be out of my mind. Anyhow, Elliot had somehow got a super bad knock on his head until a big red bump was exposed and he kept crying and shouting 'mummy, mummy!' but there was nothing I could do about it but knock at the side of the test tube. Man, that feeling really sucked. :(

Anyway, hope you have a wonderful time with your little bub as he grows a lil day by day.

Thanks for leaving a note! Yeah, he was born on 20th Sept and is almost a month old now. I haven't posted my birth story yet, maybe I'll do it in celebration of his first month! Oops such a backdated mother. Heh.
