Sophia's twelfth week was from July 18- July 24
Weight: I would probably guess somewhere in the 14 lb range.
Health: It looks like Sophia was going through another wonder week this week, which mainly affected her sleeping and eating. Other than that, we still have a healthy and happy baby girl on our hands!
Sleep: Sophia's naps were a little off this week, but not too bad. She is on the same schedule and still sleeping at night from about 9:30 until 7:15 or so.

Development: We are still waiting on some sweet giggles and for that first roll over. Sophia likes to "plank" whenever I put her on her stomach for tummy time. I keep telling her that's not going to help her much! She still loves to "talk" and coo if anyone is talking to her. She also will smile at everyone! She has also really found her hands this week. She is much more interested in them and loves to chew on them. A couple of times she has gagged from stuffing them too far in her mouth. haha...she'll learn!
Diet: We drastically dropped our nursing times this week. She went from nursing for about 18-20 on one side to about 7-10! I was worried that she wasn't getting enough during the day and would start waking up at night again hungry, but she didnt! She is also super distracted while nursing. She will eat non stop for about 6 minutes and then will start looking around her room at the different things on the wall. She loves to push down on my lap with her feet when I'm burping her, too.
Clothes: I am starting to stock up on some 6 month essentials because I have a feeling she will be needing them soon! Some of her 3 month sleepers are starting to get a little short on her. Usually, Carters brand are the first to go because they seem to fit her a little small. The Target brand runs a little big for her, so those last a little longer.
Baby Gear Loves: Things we use on a daily basis and couldn't live without include the Medela pump, Halo sleep sacks, Sleep Sheep, Baby Einstein activity mat, bouncy chair, Chicco Travel System, Summer Peek Plus monitor. I'm sure there are some that I have forgotten.

Post Partum: I am still feeling great! Other than my hair falling out like CRAZY! I am coming up on the end of my maternity leave. :( Luckily, I was able to find another job that is literally 5 mins. down the road from me. It was sad leaving some of my coworkers, but I was commuting 1.5-2 hrs ONE WAY while I was pregnant and there was no way that I could do that now. So I am SO thankful for this new blessing!
She has a stronger suck now if probably why she doesn't eat as long. Lillian did same thing. Glad you were able to find a job closer to home, much more time spent with that sweet girl than driving in a car.
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you and your job situation! What a huge blessing!!!! Don't you just LOVE those bow headbands? I think they are the best!
