After Sarah was discharged from hospital, I latched her during every feed, each breast 15mins but she would always fall asleep while feeding. When I put her down on her cot, she would wake up n cried coz was still hungry. Then I would continue to breastfeed again. It would take close to 1hr to ensure she is well-fed. After that, I would pump 30mins for the remaining milk.
As breastmilk is made up of 70% water and rest is other nurtrients, Sarah gets hungry easier. She would scream for her milk about 1.5~2hrs later. Therefore I gotta repeat the WHOLE PROCESS again!! *faintz* I look like a cow!
Now I feed her by bottle. So MIL can help me feed while I pump milk. I would latch her during the night so that I do not need to pump and can sleep longer.
Sarah likes being carry to sleep. She would wake up immediately if we put her back to cot. No choice I let her sleep on her tummy although the nurses reminded me not to as it is very dangerous but Sarah can sleep longer if she sleep on her tummy.
I really dunno what's wrong with Bryant. He kept throwing things all over the place and throw his temper for no reason. :( Deli used the cane on him but he still the same. My heart aches when Deli canes him. Last night Bryant was caned again for throwing his toys on the floor and at me. Deli caned him many times. Bryant cried till his voice became hoarse. There were so many cane marks on his arms and legs. I nearly cried but I controlled my tears from flowing out.
I think Bryant hates us now for always scolding and caning him. But I really do not know what I should do to make sure he understand all these things he done are wrong. Are we using the wrong approach? I hate to cane and scold him but sometimes he is really too much!
Bryant's childcare is also giving me headache. They kept accepting more toddlers but the teachers ratio are still the same. Bryant fell down last week during outdoor and they did not inform me. Bryant's both kneecaps and elbows are swollen. I only know when Bryant reached home and told me is painful. I called the childcare and asked them if Bryant had a fall and what I got back was "Oh? Did he fall down?" I was very angry and told them Bryant complained very painful and were swollen. The teacher said perhaps he fell down during outdoor. Children fall down is very common, but they should inform me even tho is not VERY SERIOUS that require to go hospital.
Bryant wore a t-shirt home that did not belong to him. I quickly called childcare to inform them and the teacher said they have put aside Bryant's t-shirt and would passed back to me the next working day. I went to the childcare that day itself to return the t-shirt but TILL NOW I still have not got back Bryant's t-shirt. I called and asked and NOW THEY SAID they do not know where the t-shirt is. They said will pay me back for the lost t-shirt. I am not chasing them for the $$, is that they should tell me is lost in the first place. I will not get angry coz it is common to misplace but I do not like people to lie to me. The childcare is always very messy during lunchtime as one teacher would prepare milk, one or two look after those who are still eating, two teachers are bathing the toddlers and one teacher would look after those who have finished eating and bathing.
Perhaps all childcare centres are the same, I am expecting too much. *shrug*
