dian khayla - 5 months progress report

Dian Khayla at 5 months.

Alhamdulillah, she has mastered the art of rolling over, although she only rolls to her right. Once she's on her tummy, she doesn't roll back. Hehe. She has been trying to lift her butt off the floor, which results in her pushing herself  backwards or to the side.

She grabs anything and everything, putting them in her mouth either to lick or bite them. She even licks people's faces !

She is no longer fully breastfed ! *cries tears of blood*

I started supplementing with formula milk since 28 December 2011, because Khayla refuses bottled EBM at times. I couldn't bear to let her starve, so I gave in.

I still feel so awful, feel like I've failed as a mother to provide the best for my baby. :'(
But I guess as long as she's growing up healthily, I should be grateful. Alhamdulillah she nows weighs 7.1 kgs !
She drinks Mamex Gold at the babysitter's, and will breastfeed at night and on weekends. Alhamdulillah she has been adjusting pretty well at the sitter's, after a couple of days of non-stop wailing. Leaving her in the mornings is difficult as she would pout and cry a bit. It amazes me that she can sense I'd be leaving her at such an age.

She loves playing with her feet !

Her legs are getting stronger, and she enjoys her 'standing time'. She can sit up well when supported, and loves to play with her aunties and uncle at home. She is slowly warming up to her Atuk a.k.a Daddy. Hehe. She is quite the talker, and "abababababa, maaamaa," are her usual words. :)

Mummy's lil' girl. :)
