Praise be to the Lord! Jaide did not need to be hospitalized after all. Thank you for praying with us. *beam* Although the jaundice level is still a little high, it is finally on the decline. I'll just have to continue bringing her down for checks till she's out of the woods.

Jaide is now going into the third week of her life and is most likely on a growth spurt since she's now feeding every 2 hourly. It's pretty tiring, especially at night. When my milk is not enough to satiate her appetite, she has taken to biting me. *ouch* That reminds me of Joash when he was a newborn... (Click here for an old post about it) So I've taken to supplementing once again. Might as well. So many people have told me that formula will help to bring down the jaundice level.

Now, Jaide is able to sustain at least 15 min of staying awake after her milk before she needs to take a nap. Thus, I brought out the mobile that had served me well for Joash and Jayna in the past. She seems to like it. :)

Gazing at the blue bird as it passed by

Perhaps she knows she has to put on more weight since she is very small and skinny at the moment, Jaide gets really impatient when we have to change her diapers before or in the middle of a feeding. She'll scream her lungs out the whole time. Power...

Jaide: "Mummy, I'm still hungry.
Let me try my mittens..."

Jaide: "It didn't work.
I'm still hungry! Where's my milk!!!"
