baby c went through a phase of not drinking milk at all the past weeks. sure, he would feed from my breasts but i definitely do not produce enough to sustain him on my breastmilk alone. we were making bottles for him and throwing the contents away. needless to say, b and i were worried.
other than not taking milk, he was perfectly fine. he would smile, laugh and babble away. hence i decided to wait until his doctor's appointment to bring it up. and guess what? apparently it's normal for babies aged between 2 to 4 months to behave this way. phew, what a relief! i certainly have not heard about this phase before. i talked to a fellow mum and it happened with her daughter as well. ah well..............i'm glad to announce that baby c is back to his feeding schedule as of this week.


you know how everyone always say that formula is not cheap? (we spend RM73 for a tin of formula that lasts a week for baby c now) well, b has his own take on this issue. he says that we should not look at it as being expensive as the tin of formula feeds baby for numerous meals for ONE whole week and it's only RM73 as whenever we go out for a meal (chili's, delicious, banquet, etc) we spend the same amount for ONE meal. i guess it makes sense huh? what's your take?
