He was having a problem sleeping by all alone, I always had to carry him and attempt to put him down but honestly, its cause of this that my back is dead. So for quite awhile now, I've been leaving him to try to sleep by his self which of course has resulted in massive wailing. It breaks my heart hearing him cry like that but he has got to learn to sleep without help. So now, I don't feel so bad and now he basically sleeps alone BUT I have to place the pacifier in his mouth and position him for sleep. No, I still can't just pop him in his crib and he'll do the rest. No, he still can't sleep without his pacifier. So the irritating thing is, whenever his pacifier falls out of his mouth, he cries.
I guess its a very slow start but its a start nonetheless. Have tried letting him cry to the heavens till he get so darn tired that he falls asleep. So yea I've started to let him cry for a much longer time before I head him to pop in his fallen pacifier and by then his eyes can barely open. But I really can't wait for him to sleep alone.
Ah, he's more anti social now. Before, he would be so super excited when others carried him. He used to love seeing my uncle, aunty and cousins. Would get super excited that his shoes would fall off! But now, he just looks at them and cries. No, they look normal I promise. Try getting them to carry him. My god.
So again, my back. Poor boy, he must be so scared.
I'm also starting him on the pureed fruits this month! How exciting! At 2 months, I started Mikey on juice. Dilated juice of course. Half and half with water and he took to it so well. Of course it was not a substitution to milk but more like an addition and only 1 tiny bottle for the whole day. His feeding was really bad and still is actually. He never finishes his whole bottle but decides to drink half and leave the rest for 2 hours later or 30 minutes later so its so difficult for me cause I never know when he wants to start drinking again. The 3 hour interval is all over the place. So in came the water and juice and it kinda made his milk time more on track.
At 3 months, I added Cerealac to his milk, once a day. I thought it would make him a little more full and he would have a better undisrupted sleep. He loves it so much that whenever its Cereal milk, its a whole bottle and sleep soon after for a full 2.5 to 3 hours! Which is lovely cause he's less cranky!
So now, I'm so super excited to start him on this pureed stuff. I know its gay but I'm so excited to use the baby spoons. =/
