I'm going to boast a little about our 6 week old. I don't even care if doing this boasting and bragging will jinx us or not. I'm thrilled at how our daughter is creating a little routine.
First, she's 6 weeks old - can't believe it. It's been a wonderful 6 weeks with her.
Second, she's eating nearly 5.5 ounces every 3 hours - she's a tubbo! :) I'm loving her fat rolls on her thighs already!
Third, she's sleeping nearly 9 hours at night - NINE HOURS!
As for her routine... we are somewhat on one already.
Between 6:30 & 7:00 am - wakes... happy, smiling, not too mad! Eats.
Within 40 minutes - POOPS. :) (this has happened the last 5 days in a row!) Funny to me.
Between 8:00 & 8:30 am - gets fussy and wants to nap... I wrap her in a blanket, we walk for about 2 minutes, I lay her in her bed - sleeps for nearly an hour and a half. Sometimes, she'll wake about 30 minutes in and need her diaper changed. (She does not like a wet diaper!)
Between 10:00 & 10:30 am - mad... hungry. Eats.
Lays around, "plays", "talks", kicks legs for about 40 minutes to an hour.
Between 11:30 or noon - naps
Around 2:00 pm - mad again... hungry. Eats.
From then on out, we are kind of the same routine: awake time, nap time, pick up Kayson time. She usually snoozes in the car seat.
Between 5:30 & 6:00 pm - not nearly as mad... but hungry. Eats.
Most evenings (between 7:00 & 8:00 pm) - she's fussy, restless, nothing really makes her very happy... we do a lot of walking, talking, Shhhing, pacifier time, swaddled, etc. Tonight, however, she was delightful - she had awake time from 7:30 to 9:00 pm. Very enjoyable!
Between 9:00 & 9:30 pm - mad... hungry & VERY tired. Eats.
BED. We swaddle her and lay her in bed - awake. (I've realized over the past week or so, she really doesn't like to be rocked.) It's pretty interesting.
Like I said, if I jinx this, oh well - Ryan says I will be the one that gets up in the middle of the night. Yes dear. :)
I'm heading to bed - cuz she may wake me at 3:00 am. (I don't care tho, who can resist that sweet face!?!?)
Look at that adorable outfit! And baby girl too of course!
