here's more who's who

twin?

Guess who's who? First picture's A and second one is G. When I look at A's old pictures, I feel like I gave birth to A's twin.

I don't know how to deal with A. She's a sweet girl and she's very gentle with G. However, she's so needy whenever i'm busy with G. I gotta find some tips on how to handle siblings...

A was doing so well with potty and now she doesn't want to go.

over 10 pounds and still drinking...

ASL gets very needy whenever I breastfeed GHL. The other day A asked me, "can baby stop drinking milk? " However, she was very excited when I asked her to help me bottlefeed G.
She held the bottle with me and she was very happy. I don't know how moms with multiple children do it... so hard...

I have to start exercising. Pointing at my stomach, ASL asked me, "baby come out?" I told her, "yes, A. G came out." A few seconds later, she asked again, " baby in there?"

lots of kisses

breastfeeding 2

Hate is a strong word. I don't hate people who love breastfeeding. I'm just frustrated. A mother to feed a hungry child should be a natural thing but how come it doesn't come easy to me?

Anyone read 'The Good Earth'? I can't remember the details but the woman had her child on her own, fed the baby and went back to the field to work. I was amazed. I know this is extreme in a real life but after reading the book, I thought taking care of children just comes naturally for mothers.

I'm going to stop venting about breastfeeding. No one REALLY understands what I'm going through. I know people can sympathize but only I am going through my situation with my child. I gotta work it out on my own.

GHL is over 9 pounds now. She's growing up fast but sometimes it's hard to see because I see her everyday. ASL is also growing up fast. She's talking and understanding a lot. She's good with her baby sister. It's hard for her when I'm spending a lot of time breastfeeding. I need to take her to the library or something...

breastfeeding

I think I can have ten kids if it wasn't for breastfeeding. I'm okay on one side but the other side is killing me. I can't seem to empty and feel ike there's something stuck. So frustrating.... I mean, why do I have to wear cabbage, ice pack and heating pack on me? I hate people who says breastfeeding is a joy and it's easy. You be me one day and see how you feel. I thought it would be easier the second time around but no!

Good news though. GHL was 8 pounds 12 ounces last Thurs. I guess I'll go to breastfeeding group again this Thurs and weigh her. Until then I'll be wearing cabbage, ice pack and heating pack and crying.
