1 month old!




Just like that, Donald is now 1 month old. It’s the very first trip outside to a restaurant for dinner celebrating his full month. Also his very first “meal” at a restaurant, milk of course… :)


As a 2nd child in the family, we noticed he gets slightly less attention. Not that we are bias, but because we are more experienced now so we tend to be more fluent in handling him, knowing what to do whenever he cries, reacting more correctly like when to change his diapers and feed. Furthermore, he shouts really loud so we need not to be close to him all day. *grin*


The first trip to the Doctor was smooth and he cries only a while after the jab. A month old and quickly Donald began to “take shape”, his looks now changed rather than the usual “all the same baby look”. He is more aware of the environment, makes more noises and move more quickly. Not surprisingly, he behaves almost just the same as Sandra’s 1st month old, and even starting to look more alike with her!

Smiles are more often now, I even managed to snap a few of him smiling. He looks really good when smiling, often I can sort of foresee how he’ll look when he grow up. Like Sandra previously, he stretched and moans every now and then, I remembered we were really worried and couldn’t sleep well the last time Sandra did that all night, but now still woke up by him but not as wary. Another similar action with Sandra? His eyes opened as wide as Sandra's at 12:00 mindnight almost everyday... sigh...


A small suprise, he can grab the milk bottle! Not really holding it, just sort of grabbing the bottle with both hands while he drinks. We can also feel he is much more impatience than Sandra, he tends to be more demanding too. He feeds a lot, 90ml for a month old baby is a lot, and almost every 2 hours! One thing we’re very happy about him, he burps really fast and a lot too…
