What are we going to feed you? - biggest worry of first week

O my son, I believe you understand little bit by just reading the title.

All mammal are breastfeeder in their early days. In fact babies are born with the instincts that cause them to suck. And you were no different than other babies.

But as you born via a c-section delivery, as a side effect, you were not getting enough milk. And we already started feeding you formula milk. On the very first night, we bought Biomil 1 for you. Later I bought Lactogen 1 for you.

As you were not getting enough milk when tried breastfeeding, you eventually gave up the natural instincts of sucking. But we kept trying for breastfeeding, trying different ways and mostly praying to Allah for help.

Eventually, on 4th January, 2019, during noon time; you sucked for longer duration. And within few days you were totally on breast milk.

And our biggest worry gone. All thanks belong to Allah.

Your Father

From Hospital to Home

O my son, by now you already know that you were born at HITECH MULTICARE HOSPITAL on 30th December, 2018. Your doctor released you and your mother on evening of 1st January as our home is very near to the hospital.

Once all the clearance was done, we left the hospital. I took you on the lap, hold you very carefully and walk from the Hospital to our home. As I've already mentioned that it was very near, only 2 minutes walking distance between hospital and home.

When I reached our home, the first person notice us was a young man name Johir, who was working as security guard of our building. He come forward with a smile on his face and asked, "Sir, is this your son!!!". I replied, "Yes"

Once we reached our building, we were waiting at the parking space for your mom. She with her parents came in a CNG. She wanted that all three of us (i.e. you, me and ...) will enter home together. Once your mom reached, we entered our home together.

Right now, we (i.e. you and me) are in separation for some unavoidable reason. For every single moment, I want to see you, I want to spend time with you. Hope this situation will not go long.

Anyway, I hope, I will be able show you the exact same path, I walked with little you on my lap to take you at our home.

May Allah keep you in good status and May Allah united us soon.

Your Father
