Two months old / 兩個月
Suddenly Calie is two months old. In these two months, I would say it wasn’t easy. Sometimes we couldn’t really figure out why she didn’t feel happy. We tried everything we could to make her feel better. I would say we weren’t 100 percent perfect but at least we tried. She has been growing a lot. Right now, she knows to use her baby talk to communicate with us. We were all surprised how fast she reacts to us and how mature she is!
In her first month, she already knew how to hold her milk bottle. One time we passed the bottle too slow, and she was so hungry! She grabbed the bottle right away. We were so lucky we took a picture in that moment. Her personality is just like me. She also knows how to stop her pacifier from falling out of her mouth. One time, we went to the pediatrician and the doctor saw her holding the pacifier on her mouth. She was so surprised and asked if we saw it. Another thing that surprised us was that she knew how to turn her own body. One day Eddie asked me if I turned Calie in the bed and I said I didn’t. We can’t believe her kicking turned her body 90 degrees in the crib. Since she knew it was kinda fun, she kicked even more. One day I was preparing to give her a shower. I put her in her crib. I left for just couple of minutes. When I came back, she was stuck in the edge of the crib. One of her legs passed though the crib XD. Because of that, we decided to buy a breathable bumper. We were told that most solid cotton bumpers are not safe. They might have a chance block baby’s nose. That was why we never wanted one. However, since she is so active like a shrimp, we felt we needed one to prevent her from getting stuck again.
During the second month, the main problem we needed to deal with was her digestion. Everyday we need to keep an eye on her poop and gas. If she didn’t poop or release gas, we would give her some massage. If she pooped too much, we were afraid she might have diarrhea. As parents we really have so many worries. Another thing we found out in the second month is that she knows how to show her needs. When we feed her, if she feels full, she would push the milk bottle away from her mouth. If we tried to push her to finish the milk, she would shut her mouth tightly or show a disgusted face. No way to negotiate with her. Also, she has more reaction with us now. Her sight is getting better. She would keep eyes where I go and what I do. When Eddie tried to teach her talk, she would try to copy. So incredibly cute.
For us having a baby during the late middle age, we totally surrender to this little girl. One day, I told her “nope!” I didn’t shout at her. She suddenly cried out loud. Well… how can she understand “nope”. However, because she cried I surrendered. I ended up saying — Okay okay oh oh sorry sorry.= =! Baby’s life is seriously too amazing.
轉眼間Calie已經兩個月了,我們新手爸媽就在ㄧ陣兵荒馬亂中,一邊學習ㄧ邊培養彼此的默契中與她一同成長,兩個月的她已經會用她會的呀咿聲來跟我們對話了,反應能力進步的很快,快到我們都很訝異這小妞太過成熟了!
第一個月時,我們發現因為我們傳遞奶瓶的速度太慢她搶著要拿奶瓶,我們還很幸運地拍到她雙手扶著奶瓶的照片,只能說個性也太急了,實在是太像我了。另外,她在一個月的時候就會用手扶著嘴巴上的奶嘴,不讓奶嘴掉下來,有一次我們帶她去看她的醫生,醫生看到她扶著奶嘴,還很驚訝的說你們看到了嗎?她竟然扶著自己的奶嘴。還有一個讓我們很驚訝的狀況,她竟然會轉身體了!!! 有一天Eddie問我,你有幫Calie轉角度嗎? 我說我沒有耶! 她竟然自己用腳踹著踹著就轉了90度,她發現自己腳有作用後,每天都在一直換角度,有一天我著實嚇到,那天我準備要幫她洗澡,我把她放在床上去準備洗澡水,也不過離開一下下,回來後發現她一腳卡在床外面了 XD,本來我們還因為安全考量沒有使用床圍,怕她擋住鼻子無法呼吸,後來發現她竟然像隻蝦子一樣活跳跳的,趕快去買了一個床圍,我們可不想要她有機會在卡在床邊無法動彈。
在邁入第二個月,我們主要遇到的問題就是脹氣和排便的問題,太多太少我們都擔心,沒排便就要趕快幫她運動幫她按摩,排太多又怕是拉肚子,只能說煩惱還真多。現在餵她牛奶,如果她吃飽,她就會用手把奶瓶推掉,如果我繼續強迫她吃,她嘴巴會刻意的閉緊緊的,如果硬把牛奶塞到她嘴巴她臉就好像在喝苦茶一樣,表示好噁心,這小妞完全不接受柔性勸導的,不要就是不要,嘴巴有時候還故意閉緊緊的,讓你無法強迫她喝奶。第二個月的Calie跟我們互動比第一個月更多了,她會看我在哪裡,目光隨著我移動,Eddie跟她玩,嗚嗚叫,她有時候也會學Eddie嗚嗚叫,可愛到不行。
我們這兩個中年得子的爸媽對於這個小妞完全沒轍,有一天我只不過跟她說了一句”不可以”,她竟然就從平穩的情緒轉變到大哭,我也沒有特別的大聲,我也不懂這才兩個月的寶寶怎麼會懂”不可以”是甚麼意思,但是我也只能投降,喔喔好好不要就不要 = =! 寶寶的世界真的是太妙了!
