Ethan's first tooth

Yo! I can't believe how long it's been. I've missed blogging about Ethan but it's work, crap! Ethan's daddy drove me home on Friday when my mum proudly announced the eruption of Ethan's first tooth. It's the actual thing!!! And it's so tiny, but clear as day, caught in the right light.

My little baby actually bit my nipple again and thanks to the little tooth, my nipple was bleeding. Ugh! Think he was protesting the lack of milk forthcoming. It's been tough and now I fully understand why some say breastfeeding is best even in terms of convenience. With less milk now, it's been tough on weekends cos I have to rely on someone else to get Ethan fed. Today he sat on the bed and held his own bottle to drink. He always could but was never willing, must have been really hungry today. Still only took 20ml and then we had to hoist Ethan off to my mum's to get fed. One hour of trying to feed little Ethan and 20ml was all he took and it had been 3.5 hours since last meal, so we had no choice. My nipple was still in pain, and now still sore, so off to my mum's.


Ethan only eats the very sweet. Thank goodness my dad's the best at picking out super-sweet fruits. Ethan therefore wants his water apple. First time he opened up his mouth to eat a fruit! 16th June 

Nope, Ethan still not quite eating, so it's still pretty much milk, breast or formula, thank goodness he'll willing to take formula. But like his father, Ethan has a sweet tooth. Me and my mum think he's going to develop what I call "emperor tongue" like his daddy. Emperors get 1000 dishes and they can only get through it by eating only the best and the sweetest from each dish.
