Tick tock tick tock

She's gg to infant care on the 17th and this girl is so not ready.
Oh Lord, please help Her

/*I dont want to go to school, I want my mummy*/

Firstly -
When she was just born, she cldnt really sit on the rocker for a min. Everytime u lay her down, she will start screaming. How to go infant care??? They are not gg to pick her up whenever she cries. Worrying..
Luckily, she began to build her patience as she grew older... and now she's able to sit longer by herself... play longer by herself =) Thank God!

Secondly -
I never thought Reina will reject bottle-feed. To me, sucking from bottles is a natural skill that a baby will possess. I heard babies reject latching but not bottle-feeding. When she was 3 weeks old, i introduced bottle-feeding to her, and of cos, she follows her sis, using NUK teats. She cried until mad...struggled, turned her head away, arched her back... So i thought, ok, perhapes she din like the fridge taste, next round, i wld give her the fresh BM. To no avail, she refused to drink. Tried to change various brand of teats... lastly she settled on medela (medela teat is so X)
Nevermind, anything for her, just as long as she wants to drink. This joy does not last long, every feeding time, she only suckle ard 20-30ml (in rare days, >50ml). No matter how i forced her, she just refused and began to look for my nipples. Thus, litres of milk was thrown away. How to go infant care???  How to survive?? Worrying.... i did a lit' prayer. Oh God please help her, she has to learn to drink from bottle. Time is running out.
Miraculously,  somehow, On last wednesday,  i decided to change back to NUK silicon teat. VIOLA, she gobbled down 50ml at one go, and cried for more, gave another 40ml, gobbled down without any fuss and cried for more, gave another 30ml, she decided she had enough. I threw away the milk with a smile *applause applause*.
Thereafter, feeding her was much "easier".
NUK - U are the chosen One!!
