Week 5 Babytalk

BabyLo, whenever you are in s good mood, you will have at least 15mins of babytalk at a time. It is usually fun to hear your babytalk, except your 3am session of babytalk. Somehow, you just become extremely alert after your 3am feed (the time when MummyLo wishes that you will fall straight asleep after the feed) and you will start babbling loudly even if we don't respond to you and you refuse sleep in the cot until you are tired again (which sometimes might take up to 1 and a half hr). Dare I say that your daily feeding schedule at Week 5 is rather scary. A typical day would be 6am feed 20 mins, 7am babytalk 30 mins, 8am feed 20mins, 10am feed 20mins, 1pm feed 20mins, 3-5pm feed 60mins plus babytalk or bath time, 7pm feed plus babytalk 30 mins, 9-10pm feed 60mins, 12-1am feed and then the extra long 3am feed 90mins. That marks the day for MummyLo. Although MummyLo has been told by baby nurse that I should try to space out your feeding to every 3-4 hours, it just seems like a silly approach to not feed you and let you cry for hours when all you needed was more food. It would take much less time to give you your food rather than trying to settle and resettle you for hours. It is currently 2am, thankgoodness you fell asleep. Goodnight for now !
