Water Catchment Area

弟弟 will be 2years old in 10 days time, yet he is still drooling like a baby. Strangely, Zeeyau almost didn’t drool in her baby years, but her little brother has a leakage problem. He is perpetually drooling all the time. The only time he stops dripping was during the time he was sick and when he was terrified by the firecrackers. I think during those times, he was too weak or scared to open his mouth and managed to contain the liquid inside his mouth.

He drooled so much that our sofa here was covered with water marks and stains and I have to protect the sofa with a piece of sofa throw. We can’t changed his T-shirt all the time like what we did back in Singapore, so I could only use a bib to catch his saliva. Problem is, most bibs on sale are velcro strap style. He was never trained to wear bibs from young and hence dislike that strange piece of cloth over his neck. He removed the velcro strap bibs easily, so we could only rely on the old fashioned tying style.

And those old fashion tying bibs weren’t easy to find. I managed to buy a set from mothercare and got another set here in Shanghai  after much scouting. Ah, I wish he could learn the art of managing his saliva soon.

    You know what my mum will tell you to do? When you’re at someone’s house, secretly take their tablecloth and wipe Didi’s mouth. Then after that there wont be anymore drooling! Old wive’s myth, but maybe some truth in it. I believe I must have tasted someone’s tablecloth before when young :P
