2 months old Aman

Last Friday bawak Aman pergi checkup dan untuk second shot. His paed tanya nak ambik sekali tak the Prevenar 13 Vaccine(pneumococcal) and Rotavirus(oral), it is optional. Nak ambik. Tapi tak nak anak sakit kene cucuk, tapi better sakit seminit dari sakit lama-lama kan. So serah la dua belah peha anak untuk kene cucuk. Tsktsktsk! I believe nobody enjoy seeing their baby getting shots. 

Tengok anak nangis sampai gigil mulut, mak dia pun nak ikut sekali menangis. He cried sooooo hard coz the shots are an intra muscular vaccine, memang sakit according to his paed. Tapi tak sampai setengah minit dia dah berhenti nangis, nasib baik mak dia tak nangis skali, mak dia kalau dah nangis susah nak berhenti. Lepas kene cucuk, pergi nursing room untuk menyusu, mood dia dah ok sangat-sangat, tersengih-sengih. Good boy!


  For the time being, Aman is a long sleeper alhamdulillah. Some said, we are the lucky few parents coz Aman sleep through the night 4-5 hours at a stretch, really hope that his sleeping pattern will stay the same or gets better hihi. Cuma every 3 hours i will get him up for a diaper change, lepas tu susukan about 10 minutes, he'll go back to sleep. Yup he latches only 10 minutes but vigorously so im pretty sure he gets enough amount of milk.

I think Aman tidur nyenyak sebab i still bedung dia bila tidur malam, so may be he feels warm and secure, macam kene peluk, kadang tiba-tiba terangkat tangan ke kaki ke, or even dia terkentut pun, lepas tu dia sendiri terkejut. So bila bedung dia kurang terkejut dan lebih nyenyak.

Awal-awal dulu Aman ada jugak menangis bila nak tidur, i pun tak faham kenapa, perut tak keras(kembung), diaper bersih, minum susu pun sudah, so i try bedung, lepas bedung jer kan, terus pejam mata rapat-rapat. Nak bedung rupanya...

During the day, if his diaper is clean, his tummy is full, he likes to sit on the bouncer and enjoy watching Baby Einstein on Youtube. Time tu la Mommy sempat sapu rumah, mop lantai etc. Lepas tu akan kedengaran la Aman mengomel sorang-sorang sambil tengok Baby Einstein tu. Itu la masa Mommy nak buat keje-keje rumah skit, im trying my best to adjust to my new routine while keeping him safe at the same time.

How do i feel about breastfeeding? So far, dah dua bulan lebih, breastfeeding alhamdulillah ok. Masalah engorged pun dah berkurangan, coz i have stop pumping, so supply tu just nice dengan keperluan dia, kalau agak tak selesa i just buat hand express, for comfort. The best thing about breastfeeding is bonding between me and Aman. Happy sangat, lelebih lagi sekarang Aman dah pandai senyum dan mula nak sembang, tengah minum susu dia boleh stop kejap, look into my eyes, then sengih-sengih. Really hope i can breastfeed sampai 6 bulan, satu tahun and if possible dua tahun, kalau ada rezeki.

Aman is becoming a better listener now. By now, dia suka tengok orang cakap, and trying to respond by cooing, smiling and giggling. Each baby grows at their own pace kan, so Aman, dont rush, take your own sweet time ok boy! I too wanna take my own sweet time enjoying my motherhood, enjoy cuddling him, and his sweet-smelling head, cheeks, chin, hand and tummy, sedap bau dia hehe. Let us savour our sweet moments along the way with Baba, Arri and Molly.

 

Eh, dia wave goodbye macam la orang nak bawak pegi jalan bila duduk atas stroller tu, padahal pusing-pusing dalam rumah jer, nak kasi biasa duduk dalam stroller. Till then, have a nice day ahead, folks!
