Weight: 9 pounds 12 ounces!
Health: Baby boy has a stuffy noes... it started Sunday night and is getting better, but still bothering him when he sleeps. We are giving him saline drops and suctioning out his nose and he HATES it... but it is the only thing that unclogs his congestion so he can breath... poor baby... it breaks my heart to see him cry in pain.
Sleep: About the same... 3-4 hours at night and 1-2 long naps during the day (~2 hours) and hour plus naps in between other feedings. He is also taking his naps during the day in his crib! Trying to get him used to his crib and room... I think we are making great steps in this process. Not ready for him to sleep in his room overnight just yet... but getting closer!
Social: More interactive each day! More smiles and his is trying to talk (coo/baby talk) more and more too! Also, last week our good friends welcomed their baby boy into the world!!! Benjamin is excited about his new buddy and looks forward to meeting him soon!
Diet: Mommas milk! This weekend we bumped him up to 3.75oz and he gulps it right down... we have a growing boy!
Clothes: 0-3 Month clothes and size 1 diapers!
Baby Gear Loves: Ben is loving his activity mat more and more! He really moves his arms and kicks his feet!
Crying: Since he is congested he is gets fussy when he can't breath.
Likes: Loving tummy time! He really enjoys getting up on his elbows and looking around! He is so strong and moves his head side to side... such a big boy!!! He also really likes to sit up, with support of course, and take in his surroundings!
Postpartum: I have had a little head cold the last few days... haven't taken anything because I'm afraid of it effecting my milk supply. I also go back for my 6 week postpartum check up... looking forward to being cleared so I can start exercising and shed these last few pounds of baby weight!
Milestones: Baby boy has his first head cold/stuffy noes... don't like this milestone as ALL! :( On a happier note... Ben is starting to reach for his hanging toys on his play mat and bouncy seat! I took this video the other night while we were having dinner... Love watching him learn new tricks!!!
