haiz... me wana rant here! ya surprised to see me posting at this hr..
So pissed w my maid.
I went downstairs at 12MN to check on my gal see if she fell asleep. Cos I left her with the maid at 11pm, told her to let bb drink and then sleep.
But apparently, I could hear Chevelle is not asleep yet although the maid switched off all the lights.
So I opened the door and walked into the room and realised there was milking dripping from the corner of her mouth! Even in the dark! Cos i could see something glistening.
Then I switched on the light, realised the maid had the milk bottle in her hand and discovered bb's face was red! like little red dots, like kena rash.
So I immediately took the bib cloth wipe the dripping milk off and asked the maid why bb's face is so red. She told me bb scratched herself.
At this point, I was alrdy not happy. I was thinking, if bb is not asleep, why did she switch off the light and also how CAN SHE FEED BABY WHILE LYING DOWN LIKE THAT!!?! Somemore bb scratched herself too.
OK like that nvm. Then as I carried bb off the sofa bed, found the area beneath her head was one patch of wetness. I asked maid what that is. She said bb sweated. I didn't bother to check, but now on hindsight, I wondered if it's spilt milk. Didn't bother to smell. As I carried her off the bed, the maid went to put a piece of small towel over that area of wetness (makes me now wonder why she has to do that if it's just sweat right?)
I just went to check if bb still wants the remaining milk, and make her drink but she didn't want.
SO I COAXED HER TO SLEEP. And although Chevelle was fidgeting abit, I knw she was tired and she fell asleep in the 15min that I rocked/carried her around to sleep.
MY GOD... in my mind, I'm thinking, WHAT THE HECK is the maid doing? Is she so tired and lazy that she could not even just spare that 15-20min to just coax bb to sleep (which means rocking and cradling/walking bb around) then she also can sleep earlier. I know the maid sometimes doesn't hv enough sleep which is why this afternoon I told her to take a nap with bb while bb was hving her afternoon nap which was abt 2hrs. Of course, the maid didn't sleep the whole 2 hrs but I'm v sure she slept at least 30min, cos i spot check and did see her napping w bb.
Sorry for the long rant... but this is really bothering me. Wonder if later 3/4AM if shd wake up to supervise this maid when bb is awake for her next feed.
And now I'm definitely going to "lecture" her when I'm up and tell her what's the proper way to do things. SOOO pissed!
It really makes me re-consider if I want to let the maid take care of baby at night.
