Hunger Strike
My boy’s on hunger strike for 2 days already. He only takes 2 oz of milk in bottle per day, and that is also been forced, persuaded, tricked, etc by my maid. Sometimes I kesian seeing her carrying Justin in her arms, walking around the house, and let Justin sip bit by bit until my baby pushes or throws the bottle away. He’s still on direct nursing, but I know that my supply has gone off drastically since I was on some estrogen pills under my gynae’s description. I suspected that the pills have decreased my supply.
I’d be lying if I say I’m not worry about his weight, he’s getting thinner and thinner. Brought him to see his paed yesterday, and he said Justin’s not gaining weight for 2 months already. Hai, fever mah, doctor, where got appetite to eat leh?
My MIL said he’s teething again, so he doesn’t have appetite to eat solid or drink anything. I know it’s rare for babies to get themselves hungry, but seeing him not eating and drinking makes me wonder why he can stand for so long.
Another thing is, I notice he rejects formula milk which I had started to introduce since I was pregnant again. Not much expressed milk left, and I thought it’s time to supplement him with formula. Too bad Justin hates it, whether it’s fed with bottle, spoon or trainer cup. At one sip, he’d turn his head away and refuse to try again. Any tips on introducing formula? Hubby tried buying different brands, but it’s still the same. Justin hates all of them. Very pro-breastmilk huh?
Hubby has been feeling guilty of us expecting another baby soon. At first, he thought it’s good to have babies with a closer gap and when he’s still young. Now, whenever he sees Justin’s refusing to drink milk and getting thinner, he’s started to feel bad. Gosh, I also begin to feel that this baby is coming too soon too, which is not a good emotional sign of being a pregnant mum.
Now, I’m full with negative thoughts…Hopefully, tomorrow I’ll feel better.

it may be just the weaning part which Justin is reacting to… also, Ivan is more clingy to me since i got pregnant for a few months, so Justin might start to “teh” a bit
for me, i planned this baby to be a close gap with Ivan but sometimes also feel guilty and think maybe i shd have allocated more time to be alone with him first
but then again, when they get their playmates… it all makes up for it kua
