Playful girl

We start training Noreen to feed on bottles from mommies expressed milk but notty girl refuse, she will spit out the milk coming from the bottle. So no choice we try anmum milk, at first she reject but after trying few days now if we're lucky she will take about 60ml. So we feed her twice a day on formula and the rest of the day on breastmilk.

We plan to stop breastfeeding by next month and see how it goes, Noreen is such a "tiuman".

Now when she is in a good mood especially morning hours, she likes to listen and watch your lips when you speak to her, then she will try to copy what you're saying, her words would be "ang gooo" or "ahhh" very loudly.

Noreen is 2 months old

Baby dreaming in her sleep

Yesterday Noreen went for check up, she is now 5.26kgs and had her 5in1 injection and Doc says she most probably will have a high temperature. We had expected this and came prepared. We gave her liquid paracetamol from Doc at nite around 8pm before the fever starts. She cried a bit at nite more than usual from her mild fever.

This morning I measured her temp its 37.4ºC, so we gave her another 1.5ml. I've just sms Lita and she's doing ok.

Noreen's 60days progress:

Noreen had learn to carry her head when in the prone position but had yet learn how to crawl. We will put her in this position 15 minutes a day before her morning bath to play. At first she tried to move about few inches but without lifting her head and her face was scratching on the playmat. She would cry from the discomfort. It sadden our heart and we would quickly carry her and pacify her. Shows how little tolerance we had and this I think is poor coaching. But we believe we have all the time in the world.

In the morning when she is more alert I would carry her and talk to her, I can see she stare at me particularly my mouth to see how I talk and she would copy me and blabber. When I smile she would copy and smile back at me staring cheekily from sideways.

When she is awake in the morning around 6am she would stare at the ceiling and start blabbering loudly playing and talking to herself or perhaps talking to her little guardian angel. This is daily routine I've learn to sleep through it, I've even graduated from sleeping through her midnight cries leaving Lita to attend to her LOL.

Her "tiumaness" are getting worse, she would demand to be carried to sleep, I've talked to Lita about how to solve this problem, and we've both came to a conclusion that perhaps this will go on a maximum of 2 years. After this she would grow up and we would never get her back as a toddler. We will continue to manja her and enjoy the moment pacifying her and treasure every minute of our time taking care of noreen when she is still a baby.

Noreen is the gem in our life and it changes us so much, our thoughts and plan now put her ahead of everything else. This is growing up experience for us too and Noreen showed this to us. We learn from our baby as much as our baby learn from us.
