(Chub's usually drinking her milk at around 6pm)
6:30pm: Finally get to sit down for a proper, relaxed, yummy meal.
7:30pm (to 8pm): Leave AMK to get home in time for her next feed (3 hours interval, so next feed supposed to be at 9pm, but sometimes she "cheats" and starts crying early for food.)
8:30pm: Be a cow again (if I'm on Schedule B for the day).
9pm: Prepare her food. Feed her. (During this time, depending on who is feeding, the other will catch a quick shower).
10pm: Still being a cow (if I'm on Schedule A)
11:30pm: Wait for her next feed (Supposed to be 12am)
12am: Prepare her milk, while she cries the house down. Feed her.
12:45am: She finally decides to finish her milk and sleeps. I put her on the bed and wash up the bottles and stuffs.
1am: Express milk again (if on Schedule B) and waits for her next feed. Catch a few winks in between.
Between 1am to 3am: I wake up almost every 10 to 15 mins due to her "eh-ee-eh" noises. Constantly checks on her to make sure she is still asleep.
2:50am: Prepares her milk beforehand so she can't cry the house down.
3am: Feed her.
4am: She finishes her milk (while dozing off in between). Put her in the bed. I wash up the bottles again.
4:30am: Express milk again (if on Schedule A). Else I catch longer winks, but still wakes up due to her "eh-ee-eh" noises, which are usually louder and longer (than the between 1am to 3am ones...)
5 odd am: She whines and cries longer and wakes up. (Not time for food yet). I have to carry and cuddle her to sleep.
Between 5:30am to 6am: Feed her less than her normal quantity, in preparation for her morning shower.
About 6 - 6:30am: Alvin wakes up to shower her. HOORAY! My turn to go to bed!!!!!!
Somewhere between 7am and 8am: Alvin sends her to his mom's. I have no idea of the exact time because I'm already dead to the world...
9:30am: I wake up and the entire routine starts again.... Sigh....
Hectic Life of a Mother....
