Feeding
Jorel is already in his high chair at mealtimes since he is 5months old . He is taking well on his semi-solid but as for his milk intake is terrible low .But we are still trying very hard to increase his milk intake but seem like he really do not like milk . My mum said that when I`m a baby , Jorel is just like me cos I dislike milk .


Sleeping Pattern
Jorel have not been a good boy sleeping throughout the night as he still need to me nurse him to sleep . As a Mummy I feel very dilemma as I wanted to stop breastfeeding as Jorel has got his teeth . He tends to bite and pull while latching on. And on other hand I want to breastfeed him as long as possible .
