      @@lowbfung Gathered from Taylor at 2:41, they took the advice for the gold aspect from the 2 naming masters; Tom at 2:47, both characters belong to gold; Tom at 2:59 & 3:08, the meaning of the *pronunciation* (tone) of the first 2 words from his example, 乘風破浪 (sing4 fung1 po3 long6, which original meaning is to follow the wind and break the waves. Then, it also used as a metaphor for people with lofty aspirations, not afraid of difficulties, and forging ahead bravely), is quite meaningful...
      I guess Levi's Chinese name characters are 鋮鋒, which match Tom at 3:11, sing4 doesn't mean anything special (I agree, if it was 鋮), and 3:19, fung1 is like... means the tip (edge) of the knife (so that's 鋒) 😀
      Since Tom mentioned more than once *the pronunciation of the words* , I think he's using words with gold aspect and good meaning from the pronunciation of the words to name Levi's Chinese name... just guessing here 🤓

    I think it's so wonderful that you are integrating traditional Chinese aspects into raising your baby. I'm mixed race, I'm half Thai, and its absolutely a gift that my mother instilled in me the importance of my Thai culture. I grew up in Thailand and moved to the U.S. at the age of 7, and was so shocked how 'Americanized' the other Asian kids were. Their parents wanted them to fit in, but in doing so, they lost a lot of their cultural background. My American cousin married a half Chinese man, and he has 0 knowledge about his own family's culture or language, which is a shame, because Chinese culture is one of the most interesting and influential cultures.

      Well not everyone asks to be born into the situation they're in, it's not something we can control. I couldn't control the fact I was born into a household where my mom's culture wasn't exposed to me. Does that make me less of a person? I don't think so, but your comment kind has underlying tones of superiority and judgement, which are not understanding towards other people's situations.

    Based on the descriptions, I'm guessing the characters are 承鋒! If so, love the contrasting stroke counts and blend of sweeping and straight strokes. And that it's a homonym with the 乘風破浪 idiom!

    Pumping 2oz from one boob is NOT a little amount. Anything from a half oz to 4 oz (from both sizes) is considered a great amount when you’re breastfeeding. At least this is what my midwifes in the states have told me.

    I do not see the point to wake up at 2 am to pump your milk, during Carol giving bottle? Why not breastfeed directly? Why pumping your milk, put it in a bottle and somebody else give it to your baby? ( except when you are out of the house, of course). Babies can be confused because the process of sucking from a breast or from a bottle is not the same. Please explain it to me what is the goal? ( pardon my english, I'm french, my purpose is not to criticise ,with all due respect for you, I just like to understand.) Thank you very much
