Formula strike

Hmm.. it seems like i'm having a blogging "diarrhea" today. Hehe. So many things to post!! (amidst of so many things to be done.). I'll keep this short.. i hope.

Anyway, back on the subject. My DD has been on some kind of a milk strike recently. it started when we introduced her to a toddler formula of the same brand infant formula that she was using. We tried the original flavour, vanilla, but she just refused them both and wanted to stick to her infant formula. Until about two days ago... Last two days, she refused milk entirely, and only wanted to be breastfed.

I was quite concerned coz i think that my milk supply has lessen (or it could be just me), despite the fact that your body produces more milk as your kiddo nurses more. It's probably just in my head, kan? Anyways, i feel kinda guilty coz last night i was forcing her to drink her formula and denied her of nursing, unless she drinks some formula. (Masa tu around 3am. DD still wakes for night nursing). So after some episode of crying and whining and "No, no, no...s" she went back to sleep, without nursing nor drinking her formula. And today, i feel a heavy sense of guilt for what had happened. Sigh!~ Kesian dia. To think that she won't be nursing for long now anyway... I shouldn't have denied her of nursing... :( Mommy's so sorry.

Hmm.. takpela.. learn from mistakes. The beauty about toddlers is that they don't hold grudges against you. (But that doesn't mean you can treat them wrong, ok?) They're always willing to forgive and forget, which enables you of second chances. :)
