Hi chidori,
Yes, I am glad that SiQi can sleep well.. Initially, she does not sleep in the afternoon since 1mth..also partly my in law.. they initially happily rocking n rocking sarong.. told them dont, always said never mind.. so SiQi enjoyed the rocking so much n refuse to sleep.. just short nap.. once stop rocking, she will be awake.. Then one fine day, my father in law fed up n scolded my mother in law.. Imagine 2 old ones quarrelled over a 2mth baby barely 2mth. now after my COMANDO training.. she has no choice but sleep in the afternoon cos tired no energy.. So I adviced them the trick.. n it worked.. they are happy cos no more rocking.. everyone happy..
I am a heartless mommy who believes baby behave thrus the conditions set by the parent..Initially, I dont belived it either.. but thru my son's stages of growing I realised that babies & children is smart by nature..They knows what they want n demand for it by crying..test water (like adult), they cant talk so they use crying lo..Of cos, we must not to neglect their needs that cos they are still vulnerable. as for wants/demands, I will not give in.. I always tell myself that SiQi is already very fortunate to hv grandparent to take care..
Imagine, those babies at the infant care.. will they be given so much attention when they cried? The caregivers have to take care so many babies (MCYS 1caregiver: 3 babies)..where got exclusive attention? Parents already known that and only expect their baby get their feed n no beating.. My friend placed her baby gal at infant care when she was 2mth old.. now 4yr, the gal is so independent n understanding..
