"Where is my milk?" ミルクはどこ?

Airi cried for two reasons before. First is for pooping and second is for milk.

A few days ago, she started to cry for a third reason. It's for holding. These days she needs holding to fall asleep. It's a great time with her even though she's getting heavier.

Airi had a doctor's visit yesterday. Everything is good with her. She was sleeping during a shot, as usual. She gained 1kg and is 2.5cm longer than last month.


I was surprised that one month has passed so fast though it was very long to wait for her coming the last nine months.

Airi likes staying in Avram's arms, but it's funny to see she sometimes looks for milk there. She sniffs Avram's chest and tries to eat milk from his nipples. It's like an adventure in jungles, treasures in bush. Unfortunately she can't find them. Then she looks very disappointed.

I give Airi only breast milk, but it sometimes makes me tired from not enough sleep. I hope Avram can help for it. I mean I hope he can breastfeed though he needs to shave the hair on his chest first.

Airi is growing day by day. It's not only her body but also some other functions. For example, her eyes started to follow us and she has more smiles these days. Everything she does makes us very happy.

I feel sorry for Avram because he can't stay with Airi during daytime. But we're always at home for him:)

アイリの泣く理由は2つ、うんちとミルク。
2、3日前から3つ目の理由で泣くようになった。それは「抱っこ」。どんどん重くなるわが子だけど、抱っこをするのは幸せ。

昨日は1ヶ月検診。無事に成長をしていて、注射でも泣かずにずっと眠ってる。先月より体重が1キロ増えて、2.5cm身長が高くなっていた。

妊娠中はアイリと会える日があんなに待ち長かったのに、今は時の過ぎるのが本当に速い。

アイリはお父さんの腕の中がとても好き。すごくリラックスしている。でも、おかしいのは時々ミルクがほしいときにお父さんのおっぱいを探すこと。残念なことにそこは毛があったり、ペッタンコだったりでミルクにはたどり着けない。まるでジャングルの中の宝探しみたい。そんなとき、アイリはがっかりしたような顔をしている。

今は完全母乳育児。夜も2時間ごとに起きるから本当に疲れる。アブラムが母乳をあげられたら大助かりなのにと思う。そうなると胸毛を剃らなきゃいけなくなるけど。

アイリは体格以外も日々成長。目でものを追ったり、微笑返しをするようになった。その成長を見るとうれしくなる。

仕事で昼間のアイリを見られないアブラムはかわいそうだけど、いつでも2人で帰りを待ってる。
