Here are some basics from month 3:
Weight: 11 pounds 6 ounces (17th percentile)
Length: 24 inches (58th percentile)
My little girl is still a peanut! These are my measurements so there definitely could be a margin for error here.
Milestones:
- can hold her head up fairly consistently
- can hold her chest up when on her tummy (that is when she's not screaming hysterical and banging her face on the floor because mommy is torturing her by putting her on her tummy)
- can pretty much get her fist into her mouth when she wants to
- smiles and giggles when spoken to and sometimes to toys
- can hit toys when they are put in front of her
- I'm not sure if this is a milestone, but she is losing her hair!
- Christmas
- New Year's Eve (she fell asleep by 9)
- sleeping through the night 1/5/13 9 pm-6 am
- days at day care and with Grammy and Meme
She is still a good sleeper and often sleeps around 6-7 hours at a time. Even though she goes to bed around 8 or 9 and wakes up between 2 and 4 she normally eats and goes back down for a few more hours. She is napping a little better. She is still taking cat naps but her afternoon naps tend to be a couple hours.
Eating habits:
She eats 3-4 ounces every 2.5-3 hours during the day. She still takes her sweet ol' time when eating. It is common for her to want to take a break and play before finishing a bottle. Obviously she does not truly belong in this family; Sean and I have been known to go to a nice restaurant and have eaten and paid in under 45 minutes. She also is very clear when she wants to continue eat and not be burped.
