I did it!

Dearest Cepheus,

Finally, after so many days since you were discharged from NUH, I managed to feed and burp you all by myself today. Your mummy was busy expressing milk while your grandmother went to the market. You started fussing and no amount of cooing and carrying can calm you down. There was some left over milk and I decided to feed you. It was actually very easy, the moment I put the teat into your mouth, you start to suckle. You drank up all the leftover and cry for more. Thank goodness your mummy was expressing milk and I request for some freshly expressed milk for you to drink. You must be hungry as you drank to the last drop. After you let out a loud burp, I managed to put you to bed after carrying you for a while. I feel so accomplished and proud of myself. The next thing I want to do on my own is change and probably bath you.

When you grow up and become a father yourself, I guess you will feel the same way as I felt today. That's one of the reason why I'm writing down all of my experience, so that I can share them with you.


Love always,
daddy
