Weaned

Three Mondays ago, I fell sick. For the longest time, I didn'tneed to visit the doc. But I finally did.

In the morning, my sis in law came over to help baby sit, I felt so terrible, high fever and coughing. Managed to see the doc and took the medicine. Nathan was well behaved. My dad came over too.

In the afternoon, my fever shot up to 38.9. I was terrified. Rang up my dad to help baby sit Nathan cos I needed to sleep and rest. Dad came in no time at all. He was the only available person around to help. Chong didn't even pick up his phone, and my mom couldn't take last min leave.

By night time, I was feeling better but still running fever. Thought with all the medication, I would take the oportunity to wean my boy. He didn't really look for it (the breasts), he was well fed at dinner time, and milk feed before he slept. One day gone by.

No engorgement. Prob cos my system's down and not much milk supply anyway. One wk passed, and the second week too. He woke up mid night a couple of days looking for milk, but after a few mins crying, he went back to sleep. Easier than I thought.
