Sucking and teether 小手固齒器


Anglea, the little grabber, is working feverishly at improving her grasp by latching onto anything and everything that she can get her little hands around. She wants to touch, hold, turn, shake, and put in her mouth everything within her reach.
小恩恩對自己的手已經愈來愈有控制力了,前幾個星期還只是會端詳自己的手,現在不僅會吸手指,也可以將手中的東西很準確往嘴裡塞,即使是毛毯也不例外。



Angela is over five-month old, and is able to slightly control her little hands. She starts to suck her fingers and grabs thing to put into her month frequently. Mommy is wondering if Angela is going to sprout a tooth. So, Mommy bought a hand teether for Angela two weeks ago and hopefully, it will helps soothe tender gums when she bites the teether.
Mommy 買了一個小手固齒器,一開始小恩恩還不太會握,也抓不住,不過經過了一星期後,小恩恩已經可以自己玩弄小固齒器了,看她咬得不亦樂乎,很有趣吧。

Remodeled the bedroom for Angela 房間新擺設

After Angela fell from the bed, Daddy and Mommy considered to make adjustments and make sure that the bedroom is child safe. Because Angela is sharing sleep in Mommy's bed, Daddy suggested Mommy should buy a baby crib for her. But Mommy thought that the sapce in the bedroom is too small to fit a crib. As a result, Mommy decided to put the bed against the wall and put plastic pat on the concrete floor. Hopefully, it will reduce the chance that Angela gets injured when rolling out of the bed.

Fell from the bed 滾落牀

小恩恩剛學會翻身,昨天卻從牀上滾下來,真得嚇壞Mommy和Daddy了,但感謝上帝,Angela事後表現一切正常。回想 意外發生時,Mommy正在客廳修理電話,只聽到房間「碰」一聲,立即傳來Angela的哭聲,Mommy衝進房間,看到Angela仰躺在地上,趕緊抱起哭泣的小寶貝,Mommy 也忍不住哭起來,很擔心Angela撞到腦部受到傷害,所幸,Angela哭了兩分鐘後,只有再斷斷續續哭了幾下,就停住了。事後,Mommy一直觀察Angela的反應,一切表現還算正常,看到熟悉的玩具也還認得出來,活動力和先前差不多,Mommy就比較放心了。經過這次意外,Mommy再也不敢將Angela獨自放在牀上了。翌日,Mommy也趕緊去買地板軟壂準備舖在地上,以減輕日後Angela學步跌倒的撞擊。

Mommy have heard her friends told that their babies fell from bed, but when it happened to Angela, Mommy was terrified. Angela fell from the bed (about 1⅔ feet or 50 cm high) the other day, while Mommy was fixing her internet telephone in the living room. Mommy was really scared when hearing Angela's head banging against the floor because it was a concrete floor. She went to pick Angela up and held the baby tight. Angela cried immediately for about 2 minutes, then stopped. No other symptoms, but Mommy felt so horrible and could not believe that she had left Angela alone to fall from the bed. She kept thinking "how could I let her fall out". After the accident, Mommy watched for Angela's behaivor changes such as vomitting and diharria and Angela seems to be doing alright so far. When Angela woke up the next day she was smiling to Mommy and laughing and rolling like her normal outgoing self. That made Mommy happy to see Angela was back to her normal self. Everyone in the family thank God for the baby.
