My Favourite Place To Sleep

Of all the beds I have slept on, (cot, cooling mat, Daddy's mattress and the master bed), the bed I nestle and stay asleep best in is my Mommy's nursing pillow which she uses to carry me to nurse me on.

Because I like to snooze and nurse at the same time, I usually take 1.5 to 2 hrs per feed. Which frustrates poor Mommy coz she sits immobilised while she awaits my awakening.

This happens for 8 feeds every day !

What A Flipper I Am!

I am now 5 months old. I can't explain it, but I just love to flip to the position featured on the left. Most times, I land on my face and then try to adjust my head so that I can at least breathe.

My parents are quite nervous and check on me every 5 mins when they are awake to make sure I am ok.

I am now 5 months old. I hav begun to sleep on my side. It comforts me to feel the bed so snug against my face.

I now like to roll about. But so often I get stuck coz one arm gets trapped under my body and I can't make a full turn. Mommy has to constantly watch me like a hawk in case I suffocate myself.

Worth My Weight In Gold !

Here I am, up close and personal.

I am now 4.5months old and just had my first 5-in-1 vaccination for babies.

The pediatrician says I am in the 90th percentile for weight and height. That means I am taller and heavier than the average baby.

Usually, babies who are breastfed are lighter than formula fed babies so I am an exception.

Mommie asked why and Ped said moms who take fish oil have heavier babies. That's TRUE! Coz Mommie takes one Alaskan Salmon Oil capsule every day plus lots of fish every week !)

Gripe with Gusto !

I used to Gripe a lot whenever I was given the famous Gripe Water aka Fei Zai Soi (Fat Baby's Water in Cantonese).

Then one day Mommie enthusiastically called Daddie to come watch me drink it. Suddenly I found I had to perform and I did. I swallowed half teaspoon of it at a time and each time they APPLAUDED for me, for me! So I finished my entire (diluted) dosage.

From that day on, I have always griped with GUSTO !

(Applause, please)

Hush, I got to concentrate ....

Mommie loves me to sleep coz at 4.5 months old, I only go to sleep at 2am. That's coz I need to be tanked up with LOADS of breastmilk before I can sleep from 2 am till 9am (7-hr record for a baby is great!) before I need another feed. Then I sleep again till 11.30am and feed again.

(By the way, usually babies can only last 2-3 hrs before they are hungry again !)

Sleep. Feed. Sleep. Feed. Sleep. Feed. Then Pooooo ! That's what I doooo !

Lukie Boy IS Happy Boy !

At home, my nick name is Happy Boy coz that's what I am !

Here I am with lots of long hair which suits me just fine coz I have got A LOT OF FOREHEAD SPACE !

If my hair were any longer, I am sure Mommie will tie plaits for me - Hurray !!
