Why is that so? Though both are our princesses,both are girls, their characters are so different. Maybe Jazelle has made it so easy for us both , maybe we are inexperience or maybe who says having 2 kids would be anything easier! =)
Jazlyn cries pretty easily and it was made worst when she decide to sleep in the day and cry at night. Due to her cries, she developed colic and our sleeping patterns were all jumbled up! Esp. my queen who is complaining that her dark circles are getting "darker" .
Tips for Dads - When baby cries too much?
As parents, we will always be worried about our babies crying non stop. As they will cry for all reasons but when is too much? and when do we need medical treatment. Frankly, there isnt any straight forward answers and we realised we can't quantify it by the length of the cries. Based on our recent visit to our doc as we worried about our little gal have some virus in her stomach and the fact she cries so much more than Jazelle, here is what we have found out.
1. It's just HER! it is in her nature that she will cry when she is uncomfortable, hungry, sleepy, happy, angry etc.to gain your attention..In other words, she is a crybaby! ( ok we have accepted the fact!) hopefully when she is older , she can subsitute the cries with words.. =)
2. Due to colic, our princess has a stomach 'filled with air'. This is due to the fact that she graps so much air that it traps in her stomach. Now here is the exciting part. It will take a long while for her body to disperse the air out of her body . from the small intestines to the large intestines and finally out from " you know where". The intestines have to SQUEEZE the air out and thus causing discomfort for the baby.
3. As the baby is growing , the intestines will also be growing and stretching thus causing more discomfort as well. Ever heard why people say that baby will stop crying after 3-4 months? Because, by that time, the "stretch" will slow down and thus pain will be reduced.
So you see, dads! In the past, our parents will say that we have to turn the bed around if they sleep in the day and wakes up at night to reverse their cycle, or other old wivies tales when babies cries all day..Today, they are known as COLIC! =p
Some of you were asking us how is Princess Jazelle copping with her sis. Frankly, she is doing fine. She knows baby is her sister and that she has to love her..My queen was saying that maybe she is too young to know much. But having said that, jealousy is obvious too. She will scream or do things to gain our attention. Thus both of us have to make sure we have to show equal love and concern to both. and i can say IT IS NOT EASY! especially when our princess jazelle is treating her home like a sprinting track to run and the furnitures as her hills and mountains to climb! What made it worst is that princess jazlyn is crying her lungs out and we can't scold jazelle if she screams too loud. .. Tell me Tell me.. what should we do?...
Well.. there is always the good side of things and here they are..
