[size=xx-large]Thank You Cicy!
I finally had a good sleep last night! Chester slept from 10:00p.m. until 3:00a.m., then 4:30a.m. till this morning 6:30a.m.
I am so glad that he is able to switch his day/night back to normal la. This morning, I am trying to follow GF's schedule but of course as you said, I still face some challenges because our sons are not robots. I will work hard and hopefully he can become contented baby!
However, I am afraid that this schedule will only last for another 4 weeks as my MIL doesn't believe it and for sure she will never follow it.
Cicy, thanks again for your advice and your recommendation!
Ki,
GF's schedule is really useful. I would suggest you to try also. Hope Natalie will cooperate with you as well. Your hubby will be back to work tomorrow? My hubby will start to work tomorrow as well. luckily that you still have your mom with you, I will be alone from tomorrow onwards as my MIL only come to visit BB from 1:00p.m. until 4:00p.m....
Tonight is Natalie's full moon dinner? Wish you have a nice celebration!
CS,
Don't be too nervous about your emotion. As all mama said, this is because of hormones and you will feel better after these 2 weeks. I also felt better after I shared my sadness on BK, do let us know if you are not feeling confortable.
C9,
Your suggestion is good, I will try to feed baby water during midnight after he get used to the routine.
00,
I also have that can of "Low Man" fomula, but I live in Hong Kong side, are you able to come and collect it? or I can send it to you after I "Chor Yuet".

give you a quick version of Gina Ford's book. I strongly advise you not to get rid of Nat's middle of the night feed with water at this young age.
Gina suggests to use water in the middle of the night only when the baby is at 6 - 8 weeks and gaining sufficient weight plus a lot of different signs.
From what I'm reading about Nat's situation: "3oz of formula but she still cry within 45 mins, so I give her extra 2 oz of Breastmilk......then she settle, but during midnight still cry cry" It sounds like Nat is not having enough to eat rather than should be eating less now. You should try to give her more the eat at each meal. But I also remember Nat has a situation about throwing up which you have to hold her. So I think she probably can only take in a small amount at each feed so that's why she gets hungry faster than other usual babies.
Ki, I know it's probably very tiring for you if the BB is feeding every hour but probably the best for your BB. Maybe you try feeding the baby your breast first then feed the baby some formula after every feed at least until the baby is bigger and her stomach is stronger before you try to cut out middle of night feed.
But your baby is only 1 week, growth spur should not be so soon. If your case of 一個鐘餵一次奶, 每次十分鐘. That's because your baby is lazy...... but I'm not kidding. It should takes the baby about 20 minutes to empty 1 breast. And the first 10 mins is foremilk and the last 10 mins is hindmilk. Foremilk is more watery less filling and the hindmilk is more rich and creamier.
Try this ---- If your baby stops after 10 mins, burp him to wake him up then force him on the same breast again for at least another 5-10 mins.
Nopan, I want to ask if your baby has been crying a lot nonstop every day during a particular period of time? It's important for you to answer my question.
Are you breastfeeding??? If yes, watch the 豬潤, for some people it will stop the milk supply, so see if that happens for you or not.
I ate 侷雞反 and pork rice for 1 month and towards the end when I want to eat less for myself, my brother and my honey always fight for my leftover rice because they taste really good.
炒米水 -- very easy. Use a frying pan, no oil, no anything. Fry some (raw) rice until golden colour. Then every time you boil water to drink put some of these fried rice into it. That's it.
Some people like to put different thing into it, i.e. ginger or red date. But for the first 1 or 2 weeks I would suggest just plain 炒米水 is best. If you don't have a lot of "bleeding", then can put some ginger or red date but monitor your own situation law.
妳地講緊咩 book 好似好多 info 咁0既.妳地知 ma ...
我囡囡呢3日0既午餐...即是 around 1:00pm 鐘到.....飲完奶就唔瞓.....一路lau 計到差唔多4點....到5點個餐飲飽奶後就一路瞓...瞓到第餐...我唸佢可能太 tired la .... 其實係咪唔係咁好呢 ...
The book we are all talking about is "The New Contented Little Baby's Book" by Gina Ford. It will help with training the baby such as switching day and night, forming a routine for the baby with feeding and sleeping, etc.
As for your question of eating and sleeping so much. From my understanding from different books I read and heard from nurses, a newborn such as 1-2 weeks should not go without a feed for more than 3 hours. NB will tend to sleep a lot (which is good for the mother, enjoy it while you can) and sometimes they will even chose sleep than eating but they have to eat. So if your baby sleeps over 3 hours without waking to eat, you should still wake her up to feed her.
