1 feed night!

Last night for the first time (since he was born), the boy woke up only once for a feed (that lasted only 5 minutes) and slept till morning. The wife was worried and woke up once in a while in the night to check on him :)
 
I was under the impression that he will be wide awake in the morning. Once the wife left for work, the boy slept! After he woke up, A the Nanny fed him but he refused to eat the meal of oats. A walk in the stroller, back and he ate the remainder of the oats and slept again after that!
 
On a different note, I have been cutting down accessing internet (FB, Whatsapp et al) from my smartphone - only once in the morning and once in the evening - and guess what? A single charge is running for the 3rd day now. I always wonder if this influx of smartphones can be a factor for the power shortage in our country . Our old Nokia phones could go for 3 days on a single charge and now? These smartphones require charging everyday (atleast the heavy users have to).  Take an example of Samsung - 86 million smartphones sold in the last quarter, iPhone sold 51 million. Huawei sold 16.6 million smartphones and Lenovo sold 13.6 million. For the entire 2013, global smartphone shipments reached a record 990 million.
 
990 million smartphones being charged every 2 days? Mind boggling!
