Mon, 5/9
在沙發上拍嗝時，吐奶。大約60c.c.? 還好後來好些了。
don came back from work late this evening. ian didn't poop until his daddy came back.
turned in my proposal revisions. i guess i could have turned in the revisions within two weeks if i did not have to deliver the baby. but i am glad that i chose 5/10 as the due date because the last thing i need at this point is pressure. it is the perfect time. i hope he likes the changes i made.
brought a used nursing pillow- my brest friend. i tried it this evening once. my back was supported and i could just put my arms around ian (didn't have to use one hand to support his head/ neck and one hand to hold his body. magic. will wash it and use its pocket for holding some towels.
purchased a box of huggies. we are not big fans of huggies. but pumpers is much expensive... because costco doesn't carry the brand...
as i hoped, we put ian in his crib in the living room tonight. and i am going to stay with him tonight. ian can sleep for 5 hours in a row for most nights. i am wondering if he will sleep even better if we are not sharing the same bed (less movements around him). plus, his daddy has installed a very nice a/c. i guess he will like it. let's keep fingers crossed.
(update: slept quite well. 10p-3a, 3:30-7:30a, 9 hours in total. only looked around before slept for the 2nd round. swaddled him and he fell asleep quickly.)
Wed, 5/11
next time, get white toast from metro. when i made lunch for don this morning, toast has become 'stiff'... so i guess if we don't eat any toast right away or within two days, we shouldn't buy from t&t. get from metro next time. just make thin slices.
Thr, 5/12
ian "semi-rolled" on his own for the first time. facing (body too) right to facing down on his tommy, and then turned his head to the right. (i missed it... after feeding him, i went to kitchen, and don saw it all.)
white nose daddy. 當當晚上洗完澡之後用了妙鼻貼。我笑牧牧會不認得他，他不信。當把ian抱到大腿上，他一開始眼睛一直轉到別的地方avoid eye contact, 當把他頭轉正，強迫他看，他一看眼睛瞪超大，扁嘴要哭。當當跟他說是爸爸阿，聽聲音阿，我是爸爸...（重複n次）。ian眼睛瞪超大好幾次（嚇到的樣子），爸爸一直逗他，終於笑了。哈哈 好可愛阿。可惜沒有錄下來...。
made a video today, 2m-2m1w
Fri, 5/13 (10wks)
11:00p-3:30a (4.5hr), 4:00-8:00a (4hr)
2-month check up with a nurse practitioner, Jane (because our doctor zazulak is away). the nurse was pretty good at checking babies and ian even gave her a lovely smile (before he got needles.) As to the vaccines, he was pretty brave :) We got a bottle of baby tylenol. I hope he won't have fever at all. we'll see!
measurements:
weight: 5.78kg (50 percentile)
height: 61.5 cm (higher than 50 percentile)
head: 40.5 cm (85 percentile)
Jane said, ian's skin is dry because... the longer babies stay during pregnancy, the drier babies' skin would be.

Sat 5/14
Baby was really warm around 4 a.m. in the morning because of the vaccines. But became cooler after an hour. Much cooler in the morning (around 9 a.m.) So he did pretty well for the first set of needles :)
Sun 5/15
Went to mississauga to buy a used graco 3-in-1 pack n play. it was definitely the wrong thing to do. baby cried when we placed him into the bassinet. the teddy bears neither sing, nor move in a circle. ian was really upset and he cried in tears. when i picked him up and brought him to his daddy, he even cried with his loudest voice. Of course, his daddy's rock heart melted. don said ian should get used to it (although it's mommy's mistake...) and soon changed his mind to let the stuff go right away...
Lesson learned:
1. should check what we'd like to buy together (we 3 should see it together)
2. should check if the stuff has been stored for a long time (a storage smell) . and check if "mobile" can really move...
3. perhaps just buy it from once upon a child next time if not sure baby will like it or not. at least we can refund within 7 days.
we finally decided to place ian in his crib all the time. just move the crib from living room to bedroom and from bedroom to living room everyday, so that he can see his friends all the time. He seemed really happy to see his friends again and talked to them for a long time (while I was organizing clothes in the same room).
I got rid of the shoe racks in the bedroom. we did a lot of work to reorganize the storage and some furniture. don installed the a/c... tomorrow, roomba will start to work for us too.
