Chapter 195

It is said that a baby can roll over at the age of three and sit up at the age of six. However, at the end of the third month, little Youyou still showed no signs of rolling over, which made Jiang Zhinian very anxious. When Shiye came home from get off work in the evening, she put Youyou on Shiye's body and asked Shiye to teach her how to roll over.

"Don't worry, it's normal to turn over at four months."

Yoyo's little head can already be lifted very high. Sometimes when she hears Shi Ye talking, she will try hard to prop up her head, little by little.

Jiang Zhinian leaned against the two of them, still a little worried: "I heard that if you can't turn over, there might be a problem..."

Shi Ye grabbed Youyou's two small fists and asked, "Do you want to turn over for mommy?"

He laid Youyou flat on the bed, holding the back of her neck with one hand and using the other hand to apply a little force to turn her over.

"Look, this isn't over."

Shi Ye's original intention was to make Jiang Zhinian happy, but little Yoyo suddenly unlocked some important node and suddenly realized the fun of turning over. After Shi Ye put her back to a lying position, she hummed hard, held her little face and turned over again.

Jiang Zhinian was so surprised that she screamed and reached for her phone: "I didn't have time to take a picture of the baby's first rollover!"

When she got the phone back, the little darling who was put back to a lying position by Shi Ye turned over again very politely, causing Jiang Zhinian to jump up on the bed.

"She flipped over, Shi Ye, look, she flipped over."

Shi Ye was afraid that she would fall, so he reached out and hugged her around the waist: "I saw it."

Little Yoyo raised her head with all her strength and found that her father and mother were hugging each other and no one was paying any attention to her. She started crying loudly in anger.

…

When she was four months old, little Yoyo was extremely angelic and stopped feeding her baby at night, which allowed the new parents to finally sleep through the night. Although she still had to drink again at around five o'clock, getting up early was good for her health.

Shi Ye's original plan was to let Jiang Zhinian sleep well at night, and he would take on the task of feeding the baby at night. He only needed to express the breast milk in advance and store it in the refrigerator, and then heat it up in a milk warmer when he needed to drink it.

However, Jiang Zhinian felt that this was complicated and troublesome, and not good for Shi Ye who had to work the next day, so she insisted on breastfeeding the baby at night.

Therefore, Shi Ye only had to take the baby from the crib to Jiang Zhinian's arms after he cried, and burp the baby after feeding and put him back.

Yes, he doesn't allow the baby to stay in bed for any longer as long as the baby finishes drinking milk.

Jiang Zhinian also mentioned whether to change to a spliced ​​bed so that Shi Ye would not have to bother holding the baby around when feeding, but Shi Ye firmly disagreed. His plan was to separate the baby into a separate room to sleep once the baby stopped drinking milk at night. If a spliced ​​bed was used, it would only delay the time of separating the beds or even the rooms indefinitely.

In fact, when the baby was six months old, Shi Ye ruthlessly moved him from the master bedroom to the study room with the bookshelves cleared out. At night, both rooms were open when the baby went to bed. If the baby had any problems or cried, the person in the master bedroom opposite would be the first to hear the sound and rush over to take care of him.

Jiang Zhinian didn't understand this, but Shi Ye said that if you don't develop the habit of separate rooms from a young age, it will become more difficult to separate them as you get older. Many children in many families cannot separate from their parents' rooms until they are five or six years old.

Firstly, this is not good for children's independent sleep. Children who need their parents to sleep with them are prone to waking up when their parents leave, or simply follow their parents' schedule and cannot fall asleep until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening.

Secondly, living in the same room for a long time can easily affect the relationship between parents. He always insists that in a family, the relationship between husband and wife is more important than the relationship between parents and children. Only when parents are in a harmonious relationship can they maintain a good marriage, and a good and healthy marriage can protect children from growing up physically and mentally healthy.

In fact, it was not until Youyou was three years old and went to kindergarten that Jiang Zhinian realized that Shi Ye was right. Youyou was almost the only child in the class who could fall asleep on time at 9 o'clock in the evening. She did not need an adult to accompany her to sleep. She would fall asleep on her own when the time came.

Not only does adequate sleep make her more resistant, but it also makes her significantly taller than children of the same age.

After the child falls asleep, she and Shi Ye can have a complete time to spend together as a couple. Sometimes they chat and share each other's daily trivialities. Sometimes they say nothing, but just stay in the same space together, doing their own things, but also keeping each other company.

…

At four months, it is also the time to start adding complementary foods for the first time.

At first, she was only fed some rice noodles to get her used to eating some muddy food. When she was five months old, Jiang Zhinian followed the complementary food table set by Shi Ye, starting with a single vegetarian porridge, and letting Youyou experience the taste, texture, and most importantly, whether she had allergies.

One night, when trying yam, the little Yoyo, who had always adapted well to it, immediately had a red mouth, which scared Jiang Zhinian.

Shi Ye took a look at her calmly and said, "She's allergic. Don't give her yam for now."

"Should we go to the hospital or take some medicine? I've heard allergies can be severe or serious, and some can even lead to death from suffocation."

Foreigners are often allergic to peanuts and tree nuts, and symptoms often include swollen tongue or tracheal edema.

"Don't worry. The reason we always add complementary foods in small amounts is to prevent allergies. She's doing well now and doesn't seem to be feeling any discomfort. Her mouth will heal on its own after a while."

Jiang Zhinian carefully wrote down the yam allergy in a small notebook, then sat aside and sighed at the little Yoyo who had a red mouth and didn't know what was going on.

"Why don't you take a picture as a souvenir?"

Jiang Zhinian, who became a mother for the first time, was full of surprise and curiosity about everything and wanted to take pictures of everything.

Jiang Zhinian thought about it. Although it was a bit tragic and funny, it was the first time in his life that he had an allergy, so it was worth recording. So he found his phone and took a full-scale photo.

“Once you accept that setting, the picture becomes funny.”

The little boy Yoyo in the photo has big, innocent and clear eyes, a mouth full of small red rashes, looks around innocently, and then giggles at his mother's mobile phone.

Jiang Zhinian's heart melted when he saw this: "Shi Ye, how come our baby is so cute?"

This was the umpteenth time she had expressed this view this month. Shi Ye nodded, peeled an orange and placed it in her hand: "This shows that the evolution of human genes is successful."

Genes modify human cubs to be cute in order to attract their mothers, who are overflowing with maternal love, to provide them with the best growth resources so that the genes can reproduce better.

Jiang Zhinian gritted his teeth and held the tiny, weight-like Yoyo in his arms. "What are you talking about? What does this have to do with genes? Our little baby Yoyo is the cutest, isn't it?"

Yoyo was in her mother's arms, biting her hand and revealing her toothless gums.
