Dry Skin After Giving Birth

After giving birth, I noticed my skin gets so dried. It became dull. It looked like I got dehydrated after giving birth? I also noticed some dark spots similar to fish scales on my calves. I didn’t notice this kind of changes when I gave birth to my eldest daughter.

I applied generous amount of Vaseline Intensive Care petroleum jelly on the back of my legs hoping that those dark spots can still be removed because they are not good to look at. I don’t flaunt my legs because they are not worth displaying :D so I want those dark spots to be removed for my own satisfaction. They are like dirt and I am not comfortable to see them.

I let the petroleum jelly dried then I took a bath. I scrub the part with the dark spots thoroughly. Good thing they were scratched off.

My skin is still dry after six weeks of giving birth. I drink so much water to get hydrated and to have more breast milk. I also apply lotion every after bath which I don’t usually do before to hide the dryness of skin. I hope my skin will get back to its normal texture soon.

Overtime

It’s already past midnight and I’m still here facing my computer. Well, I’ve been working late for several days now. I’ve started working longer hours since I returned to work after I gave birth. The reason for the extended working hour is too offset the time I am not working in the daytime because of the baby. Good thing, the replacement for our broken router has arrived and I could work already inside our room, just beside my little one. This is already a bonus for me because I could work even if half of my body is already lying down on the bed. But if I could wish for more, I want to have an overbed table rather than a laptop table for my laptop so I could take it away from me faster when the baby cries.

March Birthstone

Do you know the birthstone jewelry for a March birthday? If not, then I will tell you before you consult Mr. Google :) It is Aquamarine.

If you are planning to send a friend a belated gift, then you might want to visit www.redenvelope.com. I love the customized heart of hearts birthstone necklace. The two stones added elegance to the heart pendant. I am actually looking for a fancy necklace similar to this necklace. But I haven’t found one.

Graduation Photos

My daughter graduated from Learning To Read curriculum last March 29, 2012. Probably because my daughter’s school is relatively new and there were only three graduating students, the school didn’t have a photo shoot for the graduating students. So before heading to the graduation venue, we had our photo shoot at home for souvenir :D

Here are some of her photos :)

Taken before she wore her toga. Don’t mind the cluttered background, there is no place in the house which is in order

The only background we can use without any hanging object :D (the color of the background was editted)

A lady-like sit.

I was glad my daughter was also in the mood to have her photos taken :) I don’t know if she will still remember this when she is all grown-up but at least she has some photos to look at.
