How time flies.. Gareth turns 2 months old today. He's definitely heavier (weighed about 5.5kg about one and a half weeks ago) and full of facial expressions. He loves staring at new faces, and if the person displays a smiley face, he would smile back. However, if you give him an angry or sad face, be prepared that he would wail!
I am glad that he's fully breastfed still. KengYong and Greg had been down with really bad cough and flu of late. Greg refused to sleep with KengYong and insisted that he wanted to sleep with Gareth and I. It was really impossible to quarantine or keep Greg away from Gareth during that period. Well, both KengYong and Greg have now recovered and I choose to believe that breastfeeding did help to keep the bug away from Gareth. Haha.. maybe I am trying to find good reasons to keep me motivated in continuing to breastfeed Gareth. Greg now also gets a small dosage of my expressed milk in his last milk feed at night. However, I do dislike expressing my milk - not only it makes me feel like a cow, I can take as long as an hour to do it, as compared to 15-20minutes when I latch Gareth on directly (including burping). But what to do, I have got to start storing my milk up for Gareth's usage at the infant care. Sigh.. he's going infant care in mid Feb, which means I have to start work end Feb, and that implies no more naps for me during the day *SOB SOB*
