Hot, mom!!!!

Just today Charlene cried because of the hot weather. I didn't think of that first of all. I thought she was just trying to get my attention.
I let her cry for about 10 minutes. As I lifted her up to my embrace, I could see she was sweating. Poor my little girl... I am so sorry, dear....

Day 4

Charlene had been sleeping the whole day from 9.30 in the morning to 1.30 in the afternoon with no single break! After that, she had her milk time for about 30 minutes and went to bed for a second time today.
At around 5, she woke up and I fed her. I finally decided not to let her take another sleep this evening. I then got her to my mom and asked her help to keep Charlene awake at least up to 8 o'clock. For about 3 hours, Charlene (hardly) slept comfortably. Too many noises, I suppose!

At last!! Charlene had her milk at 8p.m. She stayed awake until 9.30p.m. as she fell asleep. This time, it was another long sleep of 3hours. In the middle of the night around 1.30, she woke up for her milk time. It was kinda tiring this time. She drank quite a lot, but then she threw it up. Her shirt and mine got wet, and her blanket did too. She opened her eyes widely and she barely slept for the next 1.5hours. Daniel volunteered to babysit Charlene during this time ;) which is very sweet of him. Well...I could barely sleep during those times but resting for a while helped a lot.

Luckily, at 3a.m., she felt asleep and that gave us a chance to sleep.................

At 5 in the morning (the next day, Feb 5th, 2008), Charlene woke up and she (again) couldn't sleep. She stayed awake although she had had her meal. The breast milk had been increasingly flowing. Mine even leaked and dropped though I did nothing.
