giftfromgod2008,
How're you after resume duty at work? Is pumping okay at work? Hope everything is good at your end.
For the feeding schedule, baby before the first 3 months is hard to follow a schedule. Just like us adults, some time we want to eat more, some time we don't. So, when baby eat less for 1 feeding, she may want to be fed earlier in the next one and vice versa. Even my son is going to be 3 and my daughter is already 18th months old, they sometimes don't follow their normal eating schedules. Breastfed baby particularly get hungry faster because bm is easy to be digested and baby's stomach is still small to hold a lot of food. Also, we have to be flexible on baby's schedule (whatever for eating, sleeping, playing...). Says, would you refuse to feed her when she is hungry because it's not 3.5hrs yet since her previous feeding? Sometimes, 3 hours, 2 hours, 4 hours won't kill.
I understand that it's a lot of work, particularly you are not the only caregiver. However, put it this way, baby grows everyday and everything she experienced contributes to her growth. You want to give her a message that she's well taken care of. She can build up trust on you and the other people.
I also thought that we should not spoil our babies and pick them up every time they cry. But, young baby only cries with reasons. If you are sure that she just cries for 扭抱, you should talk to her that she needs to stop crying before mommy pick her up. Dont' think that it's silly, baby really learns. To share my thoughts, when my son or daughter were still a baby, I would check if they have poo or pee a lot first when they cry. If it's not, I would check if they would be hungry. Otherwise, would it be too hot, too cold, thirsty, too noisy, need security, sleepy...Try to observe and find out the reason, usually you can tell from the way she cries. Also, baby changes everyday, you can keep a record on her daily schedule on feeding, diaper change (any poo) and nap time, you can see her changes. It also give you an idea why she cries.
The most difficult time, the first month, has been passed and it can only be better and better.
