一ヶ月 one month

:: 母曰くアカリに似ているらしい　my mom thinks this chick just looks like Akari ::

この１ヶ月はあっという間だったー！今日でピヨコ（母命名の新しいニックネーム。ウサギにには見えないとの事…）も新生児卒業です。オムツもサイズ１にアップ。睡眠不足、オムツ交換、授乳、抱っこ以外の記憶は曖昧だけど、どうにか気が狂わないですんでいるよ〜（苦笑）

4 weeks have flew by while I cannot remember much being busy changing diapers, feeding, putting her sleep and trying to get some sleep... She has grown significantly and now she wears the size 1 diapers! Woo hoo! And I haven't gone insane.......................... just yet?


しかしオムツ交換の頻度にはかなりビックリ！

箱入りで購入しても一週間後にはまた買わないとダメなんだもん。おまけにピヨコは繊細らしく、汚れるとスイッチが入ったかのようにすぐ泣く。奇麗なオムツの方が安心するのか、変えたと思ったとたんにまた交換とエンドレス　( ﾟДﾟ)ｳﾋｮｰ

体重も増えてきて、ほっぺがポッチャリ。御陰でこの抱き癖ついている泣き虫ピヨコをあやす私は腱鞘炎になるんじゃないかと思う程、手首が痛い。最近じゃ腕も痛いよ。今からこの調子じゃヤバイ…

I was quite shocked how many diapers a newborn goes through! Even a box of diapers barely last one week. Top of that, Akari seems to be pretty sensitive since she wants her diaper changed immediately after diaper gets dirty. Then right after a new one is put on her, she cries again to be changed...

::sigh::

Also she is getting heavy every day. My wrists are hurting and it has been quite difficult to hold her lately. Especially those times she wants to be held until she falls a sleep... It makes me worry about getting carpal tunnel syndrome as she will keep gaining more weight... Geez!

赤ちゃんって毎日変わるので面白い。ある日突然笑顔を見せるようになったり、目が見える様になって私の顔をじっと見つめてたり。生理的現象と分かっていても、ニコッとされると日常の苦労がすーっと吹き飛ぶから、不思議だなぁ。

What amazed me is how quickly a baby grows and physical features changes. One day she starts smiling, and next day her eyes can see and follow my face, etc. Her smile help me forget all those difficult time she has been putting me through...
