Baby slept from 1am - 6am today, ie. not enough sleep for me,
She was very alert, though she showed sleepy signs… but she refused to sleep, kept talking…
So, this morning, I was struggling to put her to sleep…
Till 9 something in the morning, she's still tossing around, sit up, crawl, tummy time, talking…
Nurse her, she didn’t want, cry,
Let her play, let her sit, let her crawl, cry!
Ask her to sleep, cry…
I was frustrated, cos, she didn't want to sleep, yet, she latched on me…
So, twice, I just don't bother to do anything, let her do whatever she wants, didn't want to nurse her anymore, cos, my boobs feel sored…
Then, she cried!!!
Fine! I accompanied her… still the same, didn't want to sleep, frustrated, both baby and me…
So, I actually came out of the room, hoping that, she cried for a while, cos, it's been 4 hours that she's not been sleeping, it's already 10 something in the morning…
But then… I heard the way she cried, it's getting "worse and worse", didn't seem like she's going to stop…
I went back in, saw the little poor thing lying down there, CRYING OUT LOUD!!
I picked her up, hugged her… next thing is…
YUEK~~~~~~~~~~~~ walla~~~~~
Puked all over my body… luckily didn't get to the bed… (else more things for me to clean…)
As I was already feeling bad about the whole thing… or, as I've never really "over-reacted" for baby's puke… (she rarely vomits… I can list down for you, of her vomits, first time, when I fed her medicine, the very first time, me, skill-less, she, puked!!! I had to clean the carpet, I was cool back then… second time, s'pore, we're having chilli crab with my friends, she's eating her baby cereal, suddenly, yuek!!! Again, we're cool..)
I didn't have any "reaction", or, basically my reaction was COOL!!
Silently, I took her nappy, her handkerchief to cover the vomit on my body, and on her, brought her to the next room, and change…
After the change, she seems to be good, played for a while… this time, I just sat and watched… then, I put her back to the bed, nursed, and she slept…
Then… I didn't know, if she cried and didn't want to sleep, because she wanted to vomit, ie. gassy stomach…,
Or, she cried till she vomits, most babies do… ie. cried, to the extent of vomiting…
And because of that, my schedule was all screwed up… and both of us got up late in the afternoon…
THEN~~~~~~ TO MY SHOCKING!!!
I only found out that, she's poo'ed..
Now, I got another 'version' to choose…
When she didn't want to sleep, and fussed in bed..
VERY LIKELY, it's because she's poo'ed… *_*, my poor little baby…
… hm… however… after recalling the sequences this morning…
See… I took her out to play, ahem… rephrase, I took her out to see me playing social city@fb, we saw him off for work, then, I brought her back to the room for her to sleep, cos, she's not had enough sleep yet… that's around 8am…, just when she's seeing me playing game, on my lap, she's passed gases for a while, and that, I've checked her diaper when I put her to bed… phew… ie. at least, she's not really been sleeping with her poo…, but I do suspect, she's having some stomach upset…
Why?
Cos, since this morning, early in the morning, she's been pressing on her stomach, I now, I think, it's pressing on her stomach, instead of PUSHING AWAY HER CLOTH DIAPER!...
I saw her doing the act, pushing away her diaper, which was unusual, but I thought she started to unlike her diaper…, so, I didn't think of other way, and I thought it's because of the waistband, that, she felt a bit itchy there… and I changed it for her…
Frankly, I'm not that good in dealing with her stomach problem, cos, she's not been a colicky baby so far, since the early days… cos, she's a breastfed baby…
Yet, during her teething time, she's not had any diarrhea either…
Therefore, dealing with any stomach upset's not my "strength"… so far, baby's been having constipation, and the only thing that I did for her, is to feed her fruit, yoghurt, and a lot of water…, I really have kinda "forgotten" that, how a baby will behave, when she's having stomach upset… and today, LESSON LEARNT!
Some days, I could smell the poo, bad poo easily, some days, I just don't…
And most days, she's her bowel movement in the afternoon, as vs. during sleep…
So, out of all these ordinary routine, I just miss it, THAT EASILY…
I felt really bad about it…,
Cos, she… luckily, does fuss after she's done her big business…
Most of the time, I could pick it up… but on days when she simply fusses about any single thing… I'll just miss it…
Therefore, I repeatedly tell her… (repeatedly… hoping that, she'll understand one day!) that she should not "ngek ngek ngek" at all time, cos, when she really needs to have her diaper changed, or when she's really not feeling well… I may just miss it, cos, I won't be entertaining all her "demands", for eg. Ditch my chores, and played with her… I'd prefer her to learn to have her own "private" time… she's been doing just fine so far, only lately, I do not know why, maybe she's growing up, and has connected to THE WORLD, and that, she wants more of my attention, and she learns how to demand, and that, the seemingly "separation anxiety" is coming back… (well, I hope not!)
And that these 2 days, since she's been poo-ing a lot, and I've missed a couple of time, (cos, it's not diarrhea, but she's her business a couple of time a day! Cos, she's been having constipation for a week or two, and that, I've been getting her to drink water, water and water from time to time, so, these few days, she's been poo-ing as if she wants to poo all her "reserve" out!)
… that I've also been telling her to learn how to say "mm mm", after her business… hopefully she'll pick up soon… @_@...
You see… I do foresee a possible problem…
With us, ie. her parents, she may not pick up certain new skill, or new words fast.. Cos, we understand her… without saying much, most of the time, we can guess her intention, or her interest…
As… we noticed that, whenever there're new people around, like grand parents, cousins, etc., she learns more stuff…
Sigh… good and bad… ~_~
And after the super duper vomit session this morning…
As I told him in the evening, baby's super "ke lian", "cai leong", "qi liang"… of this morning event…
Now I know, again, problem!!!
… that, I will not be able to do the "crying out loud" matter if I were to train her to do anything, for eg. Get her to sleep in another room!!
Cos, being a cow-y girl, (just like big mama here) she can be pretty stubborn, it seems...
