*weighs 13 pounds 4 ounces (40th %ile)
*is 26 inches long (97th %ile)
*still only sleeps a few hours at a time at night. She might give me a 3-4 hour stretch, starting around 8 or so. Then she will wake every 1-2 hours after that the rest of the night. We are exhausted! I am trying to get her to bed earlier and now she is only swaddled from the waist down, but nothing seems to really change. She just loves to nurse and cuddle in the middle of the night!
*naps about 4 times a day, usually around 45-60 minutes. She is only awake about 2 hours if I can help it
*Sleeps in her crib and in her Pack N Play. She did sleep in her crib overnight (well, for 3 hours!) a couple times this month but we ended up moving her back to our room
*Incredibly happy and good. She is such a joy.
*She rolled tummy to back on February 3 - Lilli LOVED cheering her on
*She rolled back to tummy on February 12 - Mommy and Daddy both got to see this one!
*Had her first bottle of Alimentum formula on February 16. I mixed it with breastmilk and she took it ok. I wanted to give her some because we are going to Nashville for the day without her and she might have to supplement.
*Still nurses every 2-3 hours during the day
*Stools vary, mostly yellow but changes from runny/mucusy/seedy. Haven't seen blood in a while. I did add some hidden dairy back into my diet but she hasn't had a stool in a few days for me to see what it does. Maybe it makes her constipated!?
*Has some eczema/dry skin on the outsides of her legs and torso and arms
*Eyes are still very blue, hair is blonde and sometimes sticks up in the middle like a mohawk
*Wears size 3-6 month clothes and either size 1 or 2 diapers, depending on what we have
*She has really started interacting with Lilli and it warms my heart. She LOVES watching Lilli play around her
*Had her first Valentine's Day. Daddy got her a pink hippo that Lilli loves and named "Promise"
Overall this has been a long month, due to her not sleeping and big sis having a bad cough. But we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel - it can't be like this forever! Plus, seeing the personality come out of this little baby makes it all worth it! I remember things getting so much fun around 4-6 months with Lilli so I know we have lots of things to look forward to!
