Denson is 1 week old today!!

Wonderful milestone as Denson is 1 week old today...

This whole week we have been learning w him.. his feeding volume n schedule, identifying diaper rash, heat rash, guage the jaundice level as well as slowly learning how to bathe n clean him..

very bad parents.. we haven tried our hands on bathing him.. well, guess the confinement lady feels tat it is her job to take care of the baby so we were pretty left out in all these processes... sometimes mummy dun even noe how much baby has drank his milk, wat time he drank.. worst of all, dun even noe if he has poo poo..

Mummy n daddy brot little Denson to Dr Terence for followup today.. poor Denson had to do a blood test for his jaundice level.. the nurse prick so deep into his skin that till afternoon he is still bleeding.. cry so badly, yet mummy n daddy duno wat's happening..

Dr Terence commenting Denson's doing well.. Jaundice level at border line.. so got to go for a second blood test next tue.. hopefully Denson's jaundice has come to a peak.. Denson has always been a sensible boi, trying his best to make sure that daddy n mummy nd not worry abt him too much..

Little Denson has put on weight too.. tat's the best relief for Daddy n Mummy!! Mummy tot she could have been starving him during the first 2 days at home.. he seems to slim down abit oso.. Great that Denson 很有志气, neber let Daddy n Mummy worry so much..

Mummy has since been pumping milk out for Denson's feeding.. so much of antenatal class, toking about directly latchin baby on to bond w baby, increase the milk supply as much as baby demand.. but Confinement Auntie is so against the idea cos she wun be able to guage baby's intake, insist that Mummy has to pump out.. Mummy n daddy spoke to Auntie few days ago, but she is against the idea.. tot in the end, we manage to convince her, but today wen we came back from hospital, Denson is hungry so mummy tot good time to latch him on for just 5-10mins...

Denson is doing so fine.. Auntie kip sayin mummy gonna hav a hard time latchin baby, might even end up fightin w him.. but it turn out otherwise... duno what's wrong w Auntie.. haiz...
hopefully mummy still in time to change Denson to latch on after Auntie leaves...

so much of Mummy's updates for the past week..

here's some pix of little Denson trying to suiting to home's life...




















2nd day at home. Denson with his customised beansprout pillow done by Daddy n Mummy..

















Sleeping soundly, giving a little contented smile...
















sticking his tongue out.. hungry sign..




















Daddy's fav.. cheeky little boi..
















Peeking w 1 eye open...




















Lying in his rocker, sleepy look...




















Smiling happily whenever daddy n mummy calls his name..




















Big eyes open wide.. look at how he clenched his fist..
















Denson's signature move.. wriggle his right hand out of the swaddle and start grabbing things.. so tiny little hand compare to mummy's finger..
