Isaac & Mummy in Guinness Record attempt!

http://www.singaporebookofrecords.com/news.php?id=OTAwMDAwMDA1MA==

151 mothers with babes in arms across Singapore breastfed their infants at 10am on 8 Aug 2007 as part of the Guinness record attempt for the largest worldwidesynchronised breastfeeding event. It was organised by Nurturers of theEarth, a Filipino support group that promotes the benefits of breastfeeding. InSingapore, the Breastfeeding Mothers' Support Group coordinated the effort atfour locations - MacPherson Community Club, KK Womens' and Childrens'Hospital, the National University Hospital and Mount Alvernia Hospital.

It so happened that on the day we were to be discharged from hospital, there was a Synchronized Breastfeeding Worldwide to be attempted in one single day, August 8, 2007 at 10am (Singapore time). This is apparently an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for Simultaneous Breastfeeding in multiple sites (17,000 nursing mothers, soon to be credited by Guinness) established by the Philippines on May 2, 2007.

We took part in it, and guess what? The Mt Alvernia picture even came out in The Straits Times the next day! :)

Hello hello!

This blog was started, originally, to share with our friends and relatives, in Singapore and abroad, our pictures and stories of Isaac our first child, growing up. Since then, we have had another two babies: Asher & Shawna, our fraternal boy-girl twins :) Yes we are very blessed indeed!

We're pleased that our family has grown, and we would like to share our wonderful journey with you. We hope to be an inspiration to all such that they will want to start a family asap - for "A happy family is but an earlier heaven!" - this is where heaven is a place on earth!

We thank the good Lord for our beautiful babies - they are our angels in disguise! :)
