This is what they shared with us:

“Bo Mi Lan is a lovely baby. She seems to be growing everyday, especially at the beginning. As she is growing, her sucking becomes stronger and stronger during feeding and her appetite has increased. At one month, she was a chubby baby with chubby arms and legs. Her hands would naturally hold into little fists and her eyes sometimes followed moving objects around her. After she turned two months, she sleeps less and remains awake for about 4 to 5 hours during the day. She smiles when her caregivers tease her. She also starts to make sounds from her throat and sucks her hands as if they taste really good. Sometimes, she tries to raise her head and can hold up her head at 45 degree angle while on stomach. When she is held up, she can also raise her head. She often moves her arms and legs joyfully and giggles loudly when her caregivers are near her. When they talk to her, she responds to them as if making a conversation. Her head can make a 90 degree angle turn. She is also able to raise her upper body while on her stomach. If someone places a toy in her hand, she holds it for a little while. She will smile to you when being changed, as if telling you she feels really comfortable now.

Bo Mi Lan is a healthy baby and seldom gets sick. She has a daily routine. Her main diet is Hero Baby Formula and a rice baby formula. She also has vegetable soup, fruit juice, fruit-sauce and egg yolk as snack. She eats 5 times a day at 7:00am, 11:00am, 2:00pm, 6:00pm, and 10:00pm, 150 to 200ml each time. She has snacks twice a day around 9:00 to 10:00am and 3:00 to 4:00pm.”

“If children have the ability to ignore all odds and percentages, then maybe we can all learn from them. When you think about it, what other choice is there but to hope? We have two options, medically and emotionally: give up, or Fight Like Hell.” ~Lance Armstrong
