New Addition. New Life.. Style
I was just looking through my first few blogs to recap the memories when our princess jazelle was born. The experience of being parents for the first time, the anxieties , the excitements, the ups and downs.. Boy, it seems like it was only last month when Jazelle was born. But do you know when will you realise that it had been awhile since then? Here is how!
Firstly, you will not remember how light and fragile the baby can be. You will forget how to wrap her up and your queen will not remember how to bf her and which position is the best. However, with some practice, our 'parenting' instinct came back and everything is in order.
The reality will hit you when you have to wake up several times at night! This is especially tough when you have 2 babies! in the past, we just have to focus on our princess and my queen can have a good rest at night. But with 2, everything changes.This is particularly so when my queen has decided to go full bfing! Waking up whenever her princess requires. Though we have my experience mother in law and domestic helper to assist us, but with 2, everything changes! On one hand you are are worried about the younger one going hungry or feeling uncomfortable. On the other hand you have to make sure the older one will not be woken up by the cries. Thus , instead of resting her body, my queen's mind is always alert and awake! Aint women amazing!!
Now the next question you will ask. What about the king? I have a new role! My job is to take care of the older one , play with her , entertain her while my queen handles the younger one. This is to ensure our Princess Jazelle will not felt left behind or 'unwanted' with the new additon. and did i tell you that my queen bought 2 presents before her delivery ? One is for jazelle when she visits us in the hospital, telling her that her sis bought her a present. the other one is when we brought the younger one home! Old wivies tale? you decide! =)
But one thing never change! The joy of reaching home, having your princess calling you " Daddy", seeing your queen playing with the little one, mother in law showering my queen with love and care and our domestic helper ensuring the household chores are done. These 5 ladies made me realised what HOME is all about! Kudos to them!
Ever wonder why people say size doesn't matters? Our princess Jazlyn is smaller than jazelle when she was born but she has an appetite! My queen has to bf her for 2 hours and a total of 40 mintues of bfing!! and now we are worried! Is she that hungry? or should we just feed her enough?? experience parents out there... tell us!!! what should we do?
this pic says it all!
