Even right to confinement, I have always find it ridiculous for people to tell me to sleep when my kids sleep. To all mamas out there taking care of your kid alone during the first 4 mths, it’s absolutely impossible.
However as lil Kat grows up, it’s getting more and more relevant. This is because deep down inside them, this little monster called “tantrum” is growing and if you don’t make sure you activate ur dose button the moment she sleeps, you can’t be sure if you can get it when u want to.
Example? Daddy Kat is the perfect example. He had always wanted to blog so he decided to take some time off to read about it before starting his very own blog site (www.daddyinstinct.wordpress.com) Well, Kat slept soundly at 9, so deciding to rest, I slept at around 10, after face-booking, eating seaweed (absolute fan of Tao gei noi) and window shopping online. Daddy Kat on the other hand decides that he will go on the self enriching path of researching the proper way to create a blog and went on till 4am -.-
Guess what?lil Kat woke up at 5am to drink milk. By 7am, she was totally up. Tada! So we went on the day going out with Kat till about 4++pm and Kat was sleeping soundly in the car. Then daddy Kat said….”please continue sleeping.” And when we took her out of her seat, Tada again….Kat was wide awake.
I could see daddy Kat had the most dreadful face on him. Well, he eventually went on to sleep while I try to get Kat to do the same. Thankfully, now Kat is taking her own nap as well so they are lying side by side , snoring away..
Lesson learnt= sleep when your kid sleeps. Applicable to all kids and tods that have a tantrum.
