Day 24 of Ryan's Birth




I realised that apart of the Day/Night confusion that Ryan seem to have, another reason why he is super cranky at night is because of his blocked nose.

His nose is blocked, therefore he requires his mouth to breath. While he drinks, he cannot breath. So he takes 3hrs to drink the quantity which he usually requires 30mins to finish.
And since he drinks so slowly, by the time he finishes his milk, he'll get hungry again in a short while... So last night was a killer...
He was latching approx from 10pm - 4am on and off... Until I cannot take it, i decided to help him clear his nose.
But I know that everytime I do that, he'll cry very very loud as he's in extreme discomfort. *who wouldn't be?*

So i decided to take that risk and began his nose clearing... True enough, he cried so loudly it affected his poor daddy's sleep.
But by the time I am done, it's already 6.30am. Due for another feed...
And his daddy is due to wake up for work already...

At least his daddy had ample sleep from 11pm - 4am... *Self consolation*

So today I'm too sleepy to take any more pictures of him...
I hope I can sustain till at least 30days as I really want to capture his daily changes. :)
