Parenthood - The Awakenings!

Bint just turned 5 weeks, and it seems that her body clock tells her to keep awake at night despite my effort trying to let her keep awake during the day.

12midnight, right to latest 3 in the morning is the time that she will be awake. With her cries each time she has her bowel movement, just keep the silent night like daytime. As a result, ibn will wake up at times and he is as fresh as daytime too! With both awake in the night, I as a mother, have to play along with their "music".

This morning, ibn wanted me to put bint on his tummy. Bint will stop crying when I put her lying on her tummy despite the very very little faeces on her diaper (waiting for more to come out before having to change it). In a month, about 250 diapers have been used and disposed by bint!

I hope with the late nights ordeals, Allah gives me enough strength to sustain for the following day.
