Sorry for disappearing....

Hi ppl,

sorry for disappearing for the last couple of days,... truth is, it has been really tiring, the little rascal is up and demanding for milk every hour...
He is also what I would call "full of shit"...(pauline says just like me!!)..

the past few sleepless nights, we both have been doing the routine:
step1: Zayne wakes up and make a few "quacks" (he he no kidding)
Step2: I get up and carry him to mommy
Step3: Mommy opens her Yukata and shows her boobies!
step4: Zayne with 1 loud quack, latch on to mommy's breast like a hungry wolf
step5: I curl up into "Donut" and wrap round the back of Pauline's back, so she can
lean on me for back support.
Step6: Zayne drinks milk and POOP... really LOud, that's why we know he poops while
he feeds.
Step7: Finish feeding him, Change diapers
Step8: Zayne is shiok now, he sleeps...

Cycle repeats... EVERY HOUR...

BUT CONTRARY to what most new dad said, I found it quite an eye-opening experience,... this is what my parents had to go through when I was born...
hmmmmm.... without complain.. Will update more and post more picture this weekend ..

so Stay Tune!

EXACTLY what i've heard from my new-mommy friends! But not so bad as every hour..every 2-3 hours for newborn. Maybe your son is a jolly, active boy who needs so much stamina and milk of coz. ^_^

Oh man~ cannot imagine myself in a position like this. It has been a while i haven't burn midnite oil. But i'll cross fingers to be able to handle it since i could play online game til 5 am in the morning and woke up at 7am for work! Ha ha..

Gambate kudasai ne!

firstly, I would like to congratulate you and your wife. hope you know who I am if not ask anseng tang.
most babies that breastfed are like that. mine eldest ask for milk every 2 hrs day and night. it will be like that for the next 2 or 3 months. they eat and pooh almost the same time. breastfed babies pooh much more often and not so smelly than bottlefed babies

Hello Cuz Phyllis!!

thanks ah.. and sorry took so long to reply.. actually didn't realise got comments from you ..ha ha ha

my boy ask for milk at irregular timing ... being terrorise by him at night man!!! and he is a super Farter!! wah piang.. his fart is longer than mine man!!

SG_Alien said...

Helen,..

I think all the "training" will be of no use... you will be very diff after you give birth... first off you are already weaken by the pregnancy and birth...

so .. not to scare you lah... :)
eventhough my boy has been terrorising us..:) it is still all worth it when he smiles or laughs... really melts your heart.

breastfed babies are like that, dun worry. they get hungry easily because breastmilk is easier to digest than powdered milk. they poo more often than other babies.I breastfed my 3 babies till they are 2yrs old so you guys have to keep it up.

remember to tell your wife to be more careful of what she eats cos it will pass through the breastmilk to the baby. avoid alcohol. Has she been taking prenatal vitamins? if so, continue for at least 3mths.

Cuz..
you mean the Folic Acid and Iron pills??

Phyllis said...

yeah. but if she has constipation then stop the iron. remember to take a lot of calcium.

SG_Alien said...

Okie..
just bought Multi-Vits for her enriched with Folic Acid, Calcium and Iron.
