<\/p>\nOne of the things which I’m so not looking forward to is keeping Hannah clean as she becomes more active and assertive. So far, changing diaper is becoming a nightmare as she would turn sideways and try to get up from the lying down position. Sigh, we might have to switch to pull-up pants…who knows.<\/p>\n
On the bright side, Hannah is still willing to open her mouth to let me clean her gum, tongue and one tooth with a wash cloth. I have this white, squarish wash cloth which I soaked in very hot, soapy water to disinfect (not 100% though you know) overnight and then I would rinse well with tap water and then soak in just very hot water twice more. I deliberately chose white for the wash cloth so that any dirt or stained patches left on it could be seen clearly and I’d have a peace of mind to use it on Hannah if I don’t see these stuff. Recently, I saw an advertisement on a brand of tooth tissue developed by 2 dentists for their kids. I bought it to give it a shot hoping to do away with the troublesome wash cloth method. To my disappointment, it has a funny smell and Hannah didn’t like it at all. Back to square one.<\/p>\n

Finally, her nails. When Hannah was younger, I could trim her nails while she was sleeping. But as she grows older, she tosses and turns a lot and it becomes rather awkward for me to try to trim her nails. Besides, her sleep could be interrupted by my movements. I tried to cut her nails while she was awake but she always use her free hand to grab her nail cutter. Dangerous business! Distractions, I need distractions. I noticed that Yang had a way of keeping Hannah still by showing her video clips taken of herself. I tried it and it worked perfectly! I would sit her on my laps in front of my PC monitor and play those video clips. Then I would whip out the nail cutter and snip away. I even have the luxury of filing her nails. :)<\/p>\n
Okies, so much for sharing something mundane. Hee hee :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
