Summary of Week Five

 Sophia's fifth week was from May 30 - June 5

Weight: We had our one month check up at the pediatrician on June 3rd and chunky monkey weighed in at 10.8 lbs (85%) and was 22.5 inches long (80%). 

At the pediatrician's office

Health: Still doing great! Some baby acne has started to pop up on her sweet little cheeks. We're giving her baths every 3 or so days to help clear it up.

Sleep: We are back to a good sleeping schedule! She is pretty consistent this week..she gets up and about an hour after she wakes, she starts to show signs of sleepiness and she will sleep for about 2 hours. Her hour of awake time is about 45 mins of eating, including the burps and diaper changes and then about 15 mins. of play time.  Some naps she will wake up in the middle of the nap, but for the most part she slept right through this week. My baby whisperer husband has discovered that Sophia likes listening to music to fall asleep, so sometimes we use that to help her fall asleep.

How I found her sleeping one day..

Social: She is getting a lot better at focusing on faces and following objects!

Diet: Still doing great nursing.  She typically eats for about 15 mins on one side and then another 7-8 on the other.

Clothes: Growing out of more of those NB clothes! Her NB sleepers no longer fit, so we have moved into some 3 month sleepers we have.

 

Baby Gear Loves: In addition to the regulars, we are getting some use out of her new bouncy chair!

Crying: When she's hungry or tired..

 

Likes: Her mommy and daddy talking to her!
Post Partum:  I'm about 6 lbs below pregnancy and feeling pretty much back to normal!
