Her cheeky face!
I've been a mother for 2 weeks and 3 days now.
Body is still adjusting to the new sleeping schedule.
Laura wakes up every 3 hours to feed.
Every feed takes about 1 hour.
I sleep 2 hours between feed.
-Tired-
Now then i understand why people always say that u will really appreciate your mother when u become one you become one urself. This journey hasn't been easy, but with lots of joy. Sometimes frustrating, when she keeps screaming, but refuse to drink - i dunno what she wants. But when she finishes her milk, she will SMILE. just like the above photo, taken after she had her milk milk. so it became quite rewarding after every feed.
Miracle
She was unwilling to sleep after her 3am feed this morning. at 4.30am, she is still wide awake, while i am soooo tired. Making things worst, she has got hiccups! because i was so tired, i didn't attend to her, i sat by her bed, and started praying.
"Dear Lord, I need a miracle! Take away the HICCUPS NOW please! and make her sleep after i pray." Right after that her hiccups stopped, and she fell asleep.
This mothering journey has certainly draw me near to Jesus, praying every moment... Thank god for being with us faithfully.
:)
and i stand in awe of your love
