Valerie 5 -6 months

For baby:

Grow:
Valerie weight 5kg and length 62cm.

Feeding:
Valerie was fed with 100ml to 120ml 2-3 hourly. Her last feed at 8pm and to latch at 10pm before we go to sleep. But she not keen to latch most of the time and only drink about 60ml. Sometimes she want to bottle feed again 40-50ml before she can quietly go to sleep. She has no or less burp now after feeding. 


At night I still bottle feed her 70-80ml whenever I wake up to express milk. In the morning, I bottle feed her 40-60ml then let her latch about 40-60ml. 

I started her weaning a week earlier (23 week) before turning to 6 months. Her first weaning is carrot puree during Chinese New Year 3rd day. She accepts well but doesn't know how to swallow, the purée came out with her saliva. After 2 days, she can swallow well and less come out together with her saliva. Her feeding still maintain after her weaning. 

Night time:
She sleep well throughout the night. She will make some soft noise but not crying. Then it is the time I wake up to pump milk and feed her. She drinks very fast and continues her sleep. The next morning 7am I let her latch again before I go to work. Most of time she continues her sleep then. 

Development:
Valerie can sit firmly without any support and turn over herself. 


She sleep very less during day time especially we are around and bring her out. 

She used to turn to her left but now she can turn to her right. She can turn freely left right, front back and continuous few turn very fast. She can move from one side to another side of bed very fast. 

She attracts to sound and everything around her, her toy and her sister. 

She doesn't like to sit in car seat most of the time. She cry non stop until we reach and hug her up. 

She tries to crawls very hard but still can't move smoothly far. End up she cry for help when she at a corner of the bed.

She responses very good to people and likes to smile whenever people calling her. 

She wants to hug and likes to see what other doing now. She looks at the food when her mom is eating in front of her. She will eat whatever her toys, clothes, books. She shows less like her pacifier now or her banana teeter.

Playing time:
This month, I brought her flight back to Penang with her sister for the first time during Chinese New Year at week 22. . She doesn't cry at all throughout both journey. She is good and not sleeping too during the flight. 


We brought her to KL when she turns 6months.  

For Mommy:

Total daily milk expressed out is 450-600ml. Most of the frozen breast milk has been used in this month.
