我知道婴儿嗝奶是常事,可是如果儿子选错时间来嗝奶,我会捉狂。
杰仁很久没有嗝奶了(touch wood!),我以为他长大了,肠胃系统渐渐发展成熟,我不用再渡过那种每次他喝完奶就默默祈祷希望他不要再把奶吐出来,免得我又要费一番力气跟他抹身换衣服的苦日子。
昨晚的我好累,晚上十时许就爬上床睡觉了。睡前交代面包超人,如果正在睡觉的杰仁11点钟吵要喝奶 (baby大概三,四个小时要喝一次奶),就麻烦他帮忙喂奶。
才要进入梦乡,面包超人的声音就把我的灵魂捉回来。
“Darling,he vomits!”
(跟他讲过很多次,嗝奶不是呕吐,所以不应该叫vomit,而是叫regurgitate。可是他还是每次都用vomit来形容嗝奶,说什么这么难发音的字留给医生用就好。)
我本能地像弹横般从床上跳了起来,脑海里当下只想到,唉!又要抹身换衣服了。
我马上走到婴儿床旁把躺在面包超人怀里,吐了满身奶的杰仁接了过来。
接着又是一轮的脱衣,抹身(要抹好几轮才干净!),穿衣。
长期睡眠不足的我忽然间很生气地对着杰仁说:“It is already late at night, why are you vomitting? Can't you drink properly and just go to bed?"
杰仁以为我跟他讲话,马上用婴儿语言跟我对起嘴来,更气的是还给了我一个大笑容!
“还笑?做错事了心虚是不是?我跟你讲你不用跟我笑,我不会原谅你的,你坏蛋!”我认真地训话。
杰仁当然不知道我在说什么,继续睁大眼睛伊唔伊唔地跟我‘讲话’。
“我跟你讲,你已经三个月大了,不可以随便vomit。 At night 更不可以vomit!"
不知是被我骂到兴起,还是替他抹身的动作太大,杰仁这时候又把胃里剩下的奶一并吐了出来。
“Gosh! Why are you vomitting again? Mummy just cleaned you! Have to do all over again now!"
正在一旁抹地的面包超人看到老婆骂儿子,竟然心疼地说:"He doesn't know anything, don't scold himlah."
看着他人那一副‘慈父’的摸样,我就知道,以后在这个家里,我一定是要扮黑脸的了!
Jaden, next time when mummy is sleeping, you cannot 'vomit'!
Did you burp him after feeding before you lay him down?
ReplyDeleteWe do burp him, if possible after every feed. However, when he was still sleeping after feeding, I will just hold him at 45 degree for a couple of minutes and then put him down sleeping side way on his right.
Delete老朋友,路还很长呢!加油吧!
ReplyDelete等他长大时,你还会怀念呢!
