Sunday Birth Day Check-in

[thecatsmeow]

I noticed this fizzled off towards the end of the week, but maybe there are some Sunday mamas out there who'd like to join me!

How are you doing? Any randoms to share?

We're doing ok! Baby's ginger hair is starting to fall out and I am sad!

He's 4w today.

we're up 1-2x a night, he slept from 8-2:45 and 3:45-7am last night!! And then nursed quickly at 7am, and fell back to sleep until 9! I'm thinking growth spurt bc he wants to nurse hourly when he's awake, but is sleeping a ton! He's In the crib at night, during the day, he sleeps better on top of someone. The Mamaroo has been a good nap location too. A pic from bedtime last night.

Fave sundae: Half chocolate, half vanilla and caramel sauce. Mmm. i wouldnt say no if it was on top of a warm brownie, though.

We're doing well - I feel like I know him more everyday. His smiles are starting to be real, which melts my heart!

5 weeks old today.

Kiddo eats like a champ and has usually gives us 2 4hour stretches at night.

I love a good traditional sundae, with extra cherries!

We are doing well. Babe is almost 14# now. He is so much more aware of his surroundings and is also being very smiley! We love it!

How is sleeping and feeding going?
He has always been a good sleeper, just like his Dad. Hope that keeps up. He does about 5 hrs the first stretch, then around 3 the next. Some feeding issues lately... he is eating for shorter stretches and constantly latching/unlatching. Still producing diapers and gaining wt so hoping he is becoming more efficient when he is latched. And working on trying to keep him focused on eating and latching properly.

Hot fudge. Pretty boring I know. And now I want ice cream.

How old is LO?
Eight weeks! It's getting harder to keep track of weeks, which makes me feel like he's getting "old". I'm starting to think in terms of months.

I'm also on the smile wagon. Today I stopped in the middle of the grocery store because DB caught my eye and smiled. I started talking to him and cooing at him, then realized there was a traffic jam behind me! lol

Sleeping is good, but could be better (longer). Thankfully he goes down fairly easy for the first sleep, and pretty much doesn't wake up at all in-between the second/third stretch. Remember when we all wondered when our LOs would get their days/nights straight? Seems like most of them have now!

No issues with feeding! He pretty much always eats when he wakes up. So during the day that's every 1-3 hours (depending how long his previous nap was) and at night it's every 3 hours. Sometimes he nurses to go to sleep, too, but not always.

This gourmet ice cream shop (The Milkshake Factory for any Pittsburgh people reading this) makes a Turtle Sundae. It has house-made caramel and hot fudge, and crispy pecans, and a huge piece of candy on top.

We are doing great! He's getting so big. We haven't been to the dr since June 22, I can't wait to see what he weighs now! (We go back on Friday!)

How old is LO?
8 weeks!

How is sleeping and feeding going?
Little man is a sleeper!! Last night his long stretch was from 9-2:45. We usually get one 4-5 hour stretch and then a 3 hour stretch. Up for the day around 7:30.
We strictly FF now since I was having supply issues and I was getting stressed over nursing/pumping. But he usually eats 4 oz every 3 hours. Sometimes 4 isn't enough and I end up giving him 1.5-2 more ounces.

Hot fudge with melted peanut butter and crunch coat on top. No whipped cream though. Man, now I want ice cream!!


We took him to see the truck pulls last night- he slept through 2/3rds of it!

I'm doing well. Dying for my 6 week appt next Monday so I can start working out. I'm a beach body coach so in excited to start doing the new workout CIZE.

How old is LO?
5 weeks :-)

Sleeps like a champ. First strech is usually 5 hours and second is usually 4 hours. Naps a lot during the day. She also eats like a champ. Let's me know it's been 2-3 hours and latches right away and gets it done in 5-10 mins.

I like a regular hot fudge sundae from Hank's Frozen Custard in Meadville PA. Mmmmm
