According to Rachel, it was not recommended that Alice raise Pepita on breast milk, because she would have to wake up frequently and sometimes even needed to feed the child during meals, which would be troublesome and annoying, damaging her own body.
Then Raquel proposed to let Alice give her powdered milk to rest and make Kennedy a qualified parent.
Alice naturally knew that Rachel was for her own good, but she used to raise Jack that way and the child would naturally need it. So she did not adopt that proposition.
-It doesn’t matter. She won’t last long anyway. Let her drink her mother’s milk.
Rachel blinked, “Have you thought about it?
-Yes.
-Okay,” Raquel turned to Kennedy on the side. Even if you use breast milk, as a father, you have to offer help and care for the mother’s emotions. You know that? Women who have given birth are easy to suffer from depression. You’ll get up in the middle of the night to help if something happens to the child!
Actually, Kennedy did it all without Rachel reminding her.
Because she was so tired last night, and then she fell asleep when she heard the child crying. She opened her eyes and woke up seeing Kennedy asking her to be quiet. She prepared to go out with the child in her arms.
In the end, she didn’t know if it was the wrong posture holding her or something else, anyway, her daughter’s cry was louder. Directly, she left her father, a large man, completely lost.
What Alice heard was the voice of awkward appeasement.
-Don’t cry, don’t cry…..
She lifted the quilt a little helplessly, sat up and reached out her hand to him, -Maybe I’m hungry. Pass it to me.
Kennedy narrowed his eyebrows slightly, for Alice had not had much rest and he was worried that he would disturb his wife’s little daughter.
-She’s your daughter. Don’t think the unreal. Put her on.
Hopelessly, Kennedy had to carefully pass the child in Alice’s arms. His wife gave her the breast and looked at him angrily.
-What did you think?
Kennedy pursed his thin lips, looked at Alice and did not answer.
Obviously, he had done research before and accompanied Alice to several courses. She often received some criticism in the process of study, but she did well afterwards.
But now that the actual combat began, he realized that it was not easy.
After all, the dummy in the course could not move. When he hugged Pepita, he froze his whole body.
It was because the girl was smaller and softer than he imagined, that she looked so small that his big hands could hold her, and so soft that he felt he could crush her with a little effort.
So Kennedy could only be cautious and clumsy.
She was very hungry the child, who calmed down after drinking her mother’s milk. the room was silent, only the sound of the baby sucking milk was heard. Time passed slowly. Finished drinking milk, she fell asleep.
Alice placed her next to her. Kennedy received a warning look from his wife as soon as he wanted to come and pick her up. He had to stop.
He was disgusted.
Because he didn’t take good care of his daughter, Alice gently put Pepita to sleep there, and Kennedy waited next door to keep watch.
Until dawn, Alice told her, -Go to the next bed and sleep for a while. I’ll call you when our daughter wakes up.
But Ye Kennedy wouldn’t sleep if he didn’t watch her.
Since last night, she had hardly ever closed her eyes. There was a deep black under her eyes and her voice sounded muffled when she speaks.
Alice was a little distressed and asked Rachel to force him to rest. At first, Kennedy disagreed, but Rachel reprimanded him.
-Do you think your body is made of iron? If you don’t rest again at this time, who will take care of Alice and Pepita if you stay tired? Doesn’t your wife care about you if you keep flaunting your superiority? Can she rest well if she is like this?
Hearing those words, Kennedy also felt he was right. He left and returned to conserve strength and store up energy.
On the fifth day after giving birth.
Pepita had become familiar with everyone. When Jorge teased her, she laughed herself silly. She was thus collaborating very well with anyone who did.
Then everyone liked to play with the little girl.
Did you go to the hospital to take bean sprouts today? Got it!
Did Pepita smile today? Got it again!
Yanis took many photos of the little girl. He uploaded them to his circle of friends. A group of people gave her the Like and then frantically asked when….
Yanis was so embarrassed that she almost cut her hand in regret. Why did she upload them to everyone? After uploading, she should choose that she could only see by herself.
On this day, George and Jack were having fun with their sister. Alice watched off to the side, listening to her little girl laugh with much consolation, but she couldn’t help but feel a little worried.
Why did she… feel that Pepita’s smile was so stupid? Perhaps… There was an idea forming in her heart, but Alice didn’t dare think about it or say so.
After all, Jack was too smart. He was not like his sister after birth, who would laugh stupidly at being entertained by anyone.
“Pepita was too dumb really according to his interpretation. I hope it’s just innocence.” he mused.
However, the thoughts of Jack, the little lynx, actually synchronized with her. Not only was it so, he also told her so. He opened his eyes and looked at Alice muttering, -Mom, I think my sister looks a little stupid.
Then he bowed his head and looked cute, that he looked like he was innocent and he was right.
Alice was almost going to spit blood.
Off to the side, Jorge couldn’t take it anymore. He couldn’t help but reach out and touch Jack’s head, -What are you talking nonsense about? She’s your sister, how does she look un-nonsense?
Jack hugged his aching head and snorted pitifully, -I’m just guessing. Great-grandfather, why are you so serious? With sister, don’t you want me?
-Your younger sister is a child. You have to love her more as a brother. Don’t say such things in the future!
Although Jack didn’t say anything else, he still felt a little worried every time he saw Pepita’s silly smile.
If his sister wasn’t stupid, she was probably too innocent.
Could it be that she had all the intelligence? So Pepita hadn’t inherited anything?
Jorge went back and thought for a long time before confirming his great-granddaughter’s name.
-I already decided on the name last night. Her name is Pepita, isn’t it? After thinking, I found a homophonic for her, so let’s call her Pepi .
“Pepi Nelson? Why does that sound like a boy’s name?” Alice hesitated and gave Kennedy a look next to her.
Kennedy pursed her lips for a moment and said, -How about using reduplication? The single character sounds very masculine, which is not suitable for girls. Pepita Nelson will be much better.
