i turned 6weeks old today


and all i have here is a numbered list of updates of all my developments and all the happenings around me (in no particular order):

1. I have struggled with jaundice which got worst around day 4 and got well around my 10th day of life. my struggle with jaundice and how we were frequently visiting my pedia and lactation cönsultant can be read at my mom's postpartum update

2. I now weigh just above 10lbs (yes im a bit chunky) and probably longer than 21 inches long (dad couldn't measure me well since i was awake when he did that). So we switched to size 1 diapers now, which i personally think is still big for me (but the newborn ones are really getting tighter). I also outgrew all my newborn-sized clothes. And some of them i've worn only once, tsk tsk.

3. Im still a fussy baby but probably not as much as before. So they've been calling me hilda, ang munting prinsesa. Refer to my post below

4. I sleep a lot longer at night now (well,i think,most nights. Mom thinks otherwise) since i started co-sleeping with mom. When lola mami came,she advised her to lay me beside her at night. And l just love being cuddled by mom and feel her warmth all throughout the night. She still hasn't mastered the art of breastfeeding while lying down so we still fight at night sometimes.

5. My schedule is kind of predictable now. But there are still some occasions where i slip. But hey, that's MY schedule we're talking about here.

6. My parents kind of understand my cues now. My lola mami does very well (yes,we've only been together for just two weeks). Sometimes they don't and i get frustrated, then you guessed it right, i wail.

7. I used to look like my dad (and he still claims and sees it that way) but now everyone's commenting that i look a lot like mom now. What do you think?

8. I still wail,but now i also have what they call spoiled cries, as if nagsusumbong. Lola mami has fallen for these many many times. Oh how i miss my lola mami.

9. My playtime, conversations and attention span is a bit longer now. I specially like it when someone's talking to me. And ah,i tell you, everyone gets crazy over my precious smiles and coos which are more generous now. They also go gaga over my killer dimple.

10. I can focus better now. Aside from my parents' faces,i also love watching my crib mobile going round and round and round.

11. I've been always out of the house. Well, ive been going to my pedia since my 1st week. My parents had been bringing me to mass with them since my 3rd week. Then when lolo dadi, lola mami and ninong ruprup visited us, we've been going out for the whole two weeks. But nah,it didn't change my view and hatred for my carseat and yeah, it either modified or totally changed my parent's plans for the day

12. I've attended two celebrations already, which are actually both mine.:

My baptism which was held on sep 28 at our lady of the rosary parish. It was attended by mom's family of course, my ninang leng's family and the rest of dad and mom's friends. They all feasted on chinese food at the china grand buffet while i slept. They actually thought that i'd make a scene at church. But after i got fed i was knocked out during the entire ceremony. So they were all calm.

my 1st month birthday on sep 30 which we celebrated at home with family. We all decided to just do it at home since we've been out daily prior that day. So lola mami cooked carbonara and chicken wings and dad bought me a chocolate cake.
