Michaela's favourite sleeping position

Michaela's 3 week update!

She's drinking 100ml of milk every 3 hours now. Sometimes she'll ask for more..so i'll give her up to 120ml..and she finishes all..but she tends to drink in installments...she'll push the bottle out halfway and start to fall asleep..and I'll have to burp her and she'll start crying for milk again after a few burps..so i'll continue.

She fusses at night...just b4 she has her long sleep of 4 -5 hours...she'll cry A LOT. I'll have to put her to sleep beside me and den put her back in the cot..but it all takes 10 mins! Lucky me..I have seen and heard babies who cry like nobody's biz..and its scary...

we went for her hearing test and her right ear is still not responding..but its normal for newborns to be like that..may have earwax inside or the left over amniotic fluid and stuff..we have guests later! So i dressed her up a little..and she's sleeping in her play gym now. I have some alone time and I shall go to cook lunch! CIAO

We are sooo tired! hahahahaha

Me and Michaela went out these 2 days! yesterday was to orchard and today to vivo. Got her a playgym...or playmat?? anyway photos!

Baby and I went on a short walk to cold storage!

We had a evening walk..but she was asleep the entire time...=.= went to get some groceries! She had 120ml of milk right before she slept...a milestone! Usually she'll vomit out quite a bit of milk if it exceeds 90ml..but this time she drank 120...eh no...150! 150 in 1 hour. And now she's fast asleep. Guess it's her growing week..Drinking a lot at one time..and she's sleeping longer...when we 1st got home she used to wake up every 1-2 hours...den it became 2-3 hours..and now she can go up to 3-4 hours...from 45ml every 1-2 hours in her 1st week to now 120-150ml of milk every 3-4 hours...she is kinda learning night and day...somehow at night she sleeps longer and in the day she wakes up very VERY accurately every 3 hours...at night can go up to 4 hours..training! I am still feeding on demand..oh crap..my boob just leaked..time to pump! Cyall!

Why de hell do people like to press my baby's leg saying its too big and press until she cries in pain and agony and den say sorry and den do it again?????? Don't you get it? SHE DOESN'T LIKE IT. SO STOP IT! And quit telling me that you love to hear baby's cry. Wad rubbish.

Fever gone!

Fever gone! Stitches pain 99% gone! My life is coming back! I can take care of Michaela well now! She's now on mixed diet of Breastmilk and formula. Getting her to drink 60ml every 2.5 hours. Sometimes a bit more depending on her appetite. I'm feeding on demand. She's going thru her growth spurt now so hopefully by the next ped's appt she'll grow very well!

I had fever......

I had quite a high fever enuf to make me shiver...38.7 dc...I felt so weak . aand had no strength to carry Michaela..argh..she's been spitting up milk a bit cos the cl didn't burp her properly and I had to do the job...she'll always fuss b4 sleeping but once she's settled down, she's an angel. Anyway, I'll update more tmr...gonna go to bed...
