My Life. My Stories

For baby: Grow: Kingston weight 6.1kg.  Feeding: Kingston continues to direct latch and only bottle feed at 8pm feed when he is at home with mommy.  He was given 120-130ml at nanny house every 2 -2.5 hours with frozen milk. He has less poo and not poo when every feed. Kingsley is taking 600-700ml per day plus night and mid night direct latch. Mommy production is around 500ml per day.  He latched at night before at 830pm, before sleep and mid night while another breast milk collected in with breast pump during the mid night (around 80-100ml). Night time: Kingsley will cry then nap at 830pm for 10-30minites. Most of time he will sleep after latching and when we dim the light. Most of time he will start make noise to ask for milk at 4-5am. Got few times at 3am maybe because he didn't get enough milk at night before sleeping at night. I will pump milk before go to work at 745am. If he last latch near 6am or woke up at 7am, i will let him latch to empty the breast before going...

 Grow: Kingsley is 5.6 kg and length 59cm now. Feeding: Baby feeding still continues with mix direct latch and bottle feed (50-60ml). Mommy started to gave him some frozen milk stored during the confinement month. He still very easily burps when letting him sit up right after feeding. Most of time, he has no bottle feed during the day time and he got direct latch at both side. He will latch every 1.5-2 hours. Night time: Baby Kingsley likes to nap around 8pm. He cried at this hour especially Mommy is busy to clean after dinner and need to shower (he used to like this since his first month). He was given bottle feed (extra around 50ml that was collected during the mid night) at 8pm after Mommy showered and gave him direct latch before he goes to sleep at 10.30pm usually. He will make noise to ask for milk at 4-5am. Got 1-2 times he can sleep till 6am. But since this month, he will slept after latching. He is so sleepy and can't finish the bottle feed during the midnight wake-up. So,...

  For Baby: Grow: Kingsley weight is 5.1kg and length 56cm Feeding: I have extra frozen milk since week 2 after 1 day admission for jaundice and i pumped and keep milk for 2 days.  When I let Kingsley latched on it,  I will use suction cup to collect the milk on the other side. He is not good in latching, always got sound when latching. He cried every around 1.5-2.5 hours and i will let him latch and each feed about 15 to 30 minutes. He was breast feed on one side and bottle feed from the milk collected on the other side (around 40-60 ml) when he latched. He received mix feeding with direct latching and bottle feed throughout the day. He is very easy to burp. He can burn in seconds when i putting him upright or holding him at sitting position immediately after feeding without needing to tapping him.  Mid night feed usually take up to 30 minutes to 1 hours.  Night time: Kingsley cries every evening when mommy is busy with the dinner and shower time. He stop cry...

Kingsley is the second boys and fourth kid in the house. He met the world on 21 July 2025 20:12. He has no double eyelids. His first looks like his sister Valerie and the nose and lips like his brother Kingston.  He is 3.62kg 54cm. Induced with self contraction on 39weeks 5 days. This was an unexpected pregnancy after 6 years of last pregnancy and I got to know it on my 41th birthday. I could not believe it until I got the ultrasound scan. It has no joke. I am pregnant the 4th baby! I was so worried because my trip to South Africa and Zimbabwe for my poster presentation in the international congress will be in 2 weeks time and I need to take Malaria prophylaxis pill for going to Zimbabwe,  it is contraindicated for pregnant women. I was in dilemma whether to take the risk and search for the data of chances getting malaria. Eventually, I decided to go with only mechanical prophylaxis by covering up myself all the time to prevent mosquitoes bite.  His sisters and brother we...
