Seraphine is 5 weeks old!


This will get boring after a while, but hey, we're new parents and are allowed to indulge lol. Anyway, Angel is 5 weeks old today and is she growing up fast (ok I'll probably be saying this every week for a few weeks!). Her biggest 'achievement' this past week is being to last through the night without a supplementary bottle because she was eating really well from the breast! This is great news for me as I was really worried about what I'd have to do when all our help leaves on Wednesday. I hope this will continue. I woke up in a panice last night, realizing that everyone will be leaving very soon. It'll be a tough few days for sure. Already I know that we'll have a tough time during the day as Mummy and 'Aunty' have been carrying Angel whenever she cries. She now won't stay on her own in her bed or in her swing whenever she's no sleeping. She wants to be in someone's arms) Anyway, yes, she's been feeding really well lately and is able to finish both breasts before falling back asleep at night. Like aunty said, she's like a regular alarm clock at night. She'll wake up every 3-4 hours to feed. She's apparently needs a security blanket (which is her nappy cloth that we use to burp her) and clings to it really tightly.. she likes it around her neck and needs to hold on to it to sleep. The other day, she moved it so that the cloth was around her head, like a shawl or something. It was really funny. Here's the video of her like that :







And here's another video of her, just hanging around.
