Baby V had her 4 months 1 week checkup yesterday, 12 July 2016. We were glad to see that she's growing slightly above the graph, which means she's growing so well. Thank you Jesus. She had her rotavirus and 6in1 vaccination which cost us a bomb, RM600 for everything including consultation. OMG!! And worst still, she vomited out half of the rotavirus vaccine together with some milk. Wasted half a tube. Thank God she didn't spit out the 2nd half , I guess she only had a few drops of rotavirus vaccine. T___T Hopefully the few drops that she consumed at the end is still effective and protects her from rotavirus.
Sleep : She sleeps like a champ, sometimes from 12/1am up to 6/7am. I have my much needed sleep if I don't need to get up and pump at 3am. Sometimes I'm just so lazy to get up and pump - off the alarm and sleep. Until I wake up to two big rocks on my body. Some days, it is like a war just to put her to sleep at night. She wanted to nurse and nurse, but I know she wants to suck for comfort. The problem is, I know that she's already full. I'm just so afraid that she vomits out the entire feed because she's full, but she wants to suck for comfort. Whenever I unlatched, she screamed and yeah, serve me right.. I have to repeat the entire process again to put her to sleep. Yesterday was a rough day as well. She was super cranky after her vaccination. She didn't sleep well. She woke up crying and screaming! She never cried this loud before.. and I knew something was not right. I hold her up tightly and then I heard a loud BURPP. Oh baby, the burp might be so uncomfortable to you. After that loud burrrppp... she was more relaxed and I nursed her again and she slept till 7am. Hopefully she's back to her normal self today.. mommy needs a much needed sleep!
Food : Dr Cheah advised us to continue to breastfeed until she's 6 months old. No rush in giving solids. So, 2 more months to go before she gets to taste all the yummylicious food! For now baby, just enjoy nursing yeah. Sometimes she's so picky with one side of the boob that she just refused to nurse on the other side. And that makes me super frustrated. The more I force, the more she cried. I give up, I nurse her favorite side and pump the other side. That's when I just love my Haakaa silicone breastpump.
Best moment this week : She learns how to scream! High pitch kind of scream.. and she will continue to scream until someone attends to her. She's trying to signal everyone in the house, don't leave me alone in the room or don't busy with your own things and never look at me. Haha. Oh yeah, we spotted her trying to roll from tummy to back, but stuck halfway. (like the picture below) We just couldn't wait for her to roll freely in her cot.
