Tiny M/Porky
I really have no choice. My mum used to take care of my #1 without any help and still can cook, wash and other household chores. With #2, she's the tree and Isaac is the koala bear clinging on her, then when I'm back from work, I become the tree. Every evening from 6.30pm he'll be sleepy and he wants someone to rock him and carry him but the moment when he's placed on the bed, he'll be awakened. Else he'll sleep, then half and hour later will make noise. Then feed some milk, sleep, 2 hours later wake up again. I'll have to prepare 2-3 bottles to standby in the room to feed him milk. between 11pm - 6am.
The training is still on, still far from successful but I'm seeing some results. I can't stand the cry too so I close the door, do other things or attend to my elder girl and will pop in to the room every few mins. I'll hug him or hold him up and tell him I love him and then put him in the playpen again. He's a smart guy, the moment I bring him to the room he'll hold my shirt very tight and refuse to lie down.
I brought him back to my mum's place while I went out with hb to shopping, my mum complained that I tortured my boy as he has lost his voice crying too long.
Really, if I have continued to stay in my mum's place, I'll never have the chance to do what I want for my boy. It's now or never, it may not be successful but at least I try.
