- He eats every 3-4 hours usually, and is a champ at breastfeeding. He sometimes goes 4 1/2 hours or even 5 hours at night!
- He is still wearing size "up to seven pounds" or newborn, but is starting to grow out of them. He fits in some gap 0-3 month outfits, but they still look huge on him! See below:
- He LOVES his bath. He sits calmly and relaxes the instant we put him in it. The other night I couldn't get him to stop crying, so gave him a bath, and it worked! He loves if I pour water on his tummy.
- This week he started getting tummy aches. :( He is constantly angry about it, and it makes mommy sad!
- Mommy has had to stop eating dairy for a 10 day trial period. KILL ME. haha. But, anything to make him feel better.
- We had to spend a day at the pediatrician this week. He projectile vomits after every feeding, and I guess that's not normal for a breastfed baby. He had to get an ultrasound to make sure he didn't have pyloric stenosis. He doesn't, thank goodness! Just probably acid reflux.
- He hates sleeping on his back. So, he sleeps on his side.
- At night, he still just wants to sleep on mommy. I give in almost every night, cause I'm so tired, and just want him to sleep. We went out and bought a nap nanny, to see if he sleeps in it! I've heard good things about it!
- He still hates being swaddled with his arms in, which is a problem, cause he can wiggle himself out of the swaddle. I just discovered a sleep sack swaddle, that is both a sleep sack, and a swaddle, so his arms stay out! So far, he loves it!
- He likes his swing, but is too tiny for his bouncer right now.
- He got his first BYU shirt!!
- At his doctor's appointment on Tuesday, he still only weighed 7 pound 7 oz, so we are going back to the Dr next Friday for a weight check! I hope he's growing huge!
I love this little guy so much! He's a cuddler, he is SO curious, and loves to look at lights. I am so happy I have him in my life!!! I can't wait to see him grow big!
I can't get enough of the cute pics:) He really is so adorable! Deacon grew out of newborn stuff in like 5 minutes haha. I love that tiny new little squishy body :)
