Re: Mittens
My gal is 2+ weeks old and she still wears mittens. In fact, if she drops it, i cant really be bothered to put it back liaoz cos its my CL who will put in on for her. When CL is gone, i sure will not put on mittens for her. So troublesome.
Re:Cutting fingernails
After you cut the fingernails, it may be good to let baby wear mittens for a while or you may want to use a wet cloth to "file" on the fingernails so that they will be less sharp.
Re: Swaddling
I will only swaddle her in the middle of the nite to make her sleep more easily. At least she feels a sense of cuddling instead of me cuddling her.
Re: TBF
I just assume that if my baby sleeps well, pees and poos well, she is well fed based on TBF. Also, if my Bs feels empty after she has drank, it is also a sign. In fact, now my CL has to agree with me that with latching on, baby can also be full.
