No 2 babies are the same. But you are very different from your siblings. Some formula just can't be applied on you. With CheChe KorKor, we could nurse or rock them to sleep. With you, you will I will have to nurse one side, then the other, and then back again on first side. You will only squirm about and lift your head up with a smile while I declare defeat. I've rocked you a whole hour and you are obviously sleepy as you were already drowsy. My arms feel like they are about to drop and yet, you are still not asleep! The fastest way for you to sleep will be in a koala position on Papa's chest. Only on Papa's chest mind you. Sigh..
You also exhibit strong independence by pushing our hands away when you don't like what we do. For example feeding you. You will keep your mouth closed and push my hand away. On the other hand when I place the same food on your tray, you will gladly pick it up yourself and try to shove them in your mouth hence making you the ideal BLW baby. Although CheChe KorKor did some picking up food themselves, I don't recall them ever resisted being fed.
The other thing you dislike is having your face wiped. So much so you will try all your might to keep my hands away from your face.
You are also the only baby I have to watch like a hawk while you are on the Bumbo seat. I could leave CheChe KorKor on the seat to get something from the kitchen and come back to find them in the same position. You will be hanging out of the seat in a bridge position as soon as my eyes leave you. Hmm...
Changing your nappy is still a nightmare. We always need a backup 'distractor' to get you to lie on your back long enough to have your nappy changed. Never had to do that before. That's how wriggly you are.
There's also of course questions about your size and your ability to cruise so much earlier.
Whatever it is... you are just oh sooooo cute!! Even when you cry. And I just want to cherish every moment of you as a baby. Loving you loads, Baby Boo!
