Happy 3 Months sweet baby girl!!! It has been a quick and busy 3rd month for you and our family! You have really come into your own this month and showing us more and more of your sweet personality.
Your stats... You weigh 12.1 pounds as of Friday when you went to the dr. for your first sick visit. You have had a stuffy nose and we wanted to make sure it wasn't anything more serious. You are growing perfectly and we are amazed everyday by Gods provision in your life.
Your health... major praise report this month... we finally received the "ALL CLEAR" report of your Tyrosinemia. After a month plus of vitamin C supplements the levels are now in the "normal" range and we couldn't be more thankful! Other than that just a stuffy noes... you hate it when we have to suck your nose, but are much happier when you can breath normally when it is over.
You eat... 100% mommas milk. You take a bottle and nurse and are happy with either. We have moved you to the medium flow nipple and you gulp down your bottles much faster now! You are taking ~25-27 ounces a day with 6-7 feedings. Your dream feed has really helped this month as you have officially started sleeping through the night!!! YAHOOO!!! Your schedule go a little something like this... up around 7-7:15am and nurse, then awake an hour- an hour and a half then nap till 10 and wake up and take a 5 oz bottle, then awake another hour and nap around 11, then awake around 1 and take another 5 oz bottle, and wake for 1-2 hours then a short nap then eat another 5 oz bottle around 4ish, another short nap and cluster nursed feed around 6 then another short nap then pj's and 5 oz bottle around 8:15 then in bed by 9 and asleep shortly after. Then daddy does your dream feed around 10:30 and you typically take 2-3 oz. and sleep till 7 the next morning! On average you are sleeping 15 hours and 14 minutes a day and awake 8 hours and 45 minutes. We know this from the wonderful tracker we use to track your sleep and feedings!
You love to... eat, sleep, smile, look at the fan and lights and watch your brother play! You have also enjoyed tummy time this month since you can hold your head up and can do mini pushups! You also love to lay on your back and swat at the toys on your play mat and in your bouncy seat. It is fun to watch brother encourage you to "Get that soccer ball" as he says!!! So much joy for this mommas heart!
Big happenings your third month include... first stuffy noes, first time for daddy to travel for work, first family outing to Touch a Truck, and first Valentines Day!
Caroline, this month has been so special for us. We have really seen your personality and spark come out the past few weeks and cannot wait to see more smiles and giggles in the weeks and month and years to come. Happy 3 Months to our sweet Caroline.
