How Old? 3 months (13 weeks)
Weight? 11 pounds
Clothing? 0-3 months and 3 months still. I think he will be in them until at least the end of the year.
Sleep? He still sleeps a lot during the day and is doing good at night. He has started fussing and fighting his sleep when he goes down for the night. Last night we just let him cry it out and it worked! It only took 5 minutes and he was out.
Best moment this week? Daniel having a conversation with me. Of course it is a lot of baby babble but he would talk and then I would talk. It just kept going back and forth and is so amazing. He is getting so smart. He has this blue hippo toy in the bath tub and last night I kept saying "Blue Hippo" and he would reply with something that sounded like "Blue"! It was awesome even if he did not mean to.
Sounds? "o", "a", "oo" vowel sounds pretty much
Eating? Today he ate 3-4 ounces every 2-2.5 hours. It works because he only has to eat once at night.
What I am looking forward to? Christmas and feeding him rice cereal!
Milestones? He may not get an actual diploma, but this month marks your baby's official graduation from newborn to infant status. One thing your 3 month old baby is definitely ready to do is show you his budding personality. He may be serious, silly, gregarious, persnickety, or determined — the bottom line is he is who he is and he's all yours! Now, besides the routine care and feeding of your little one, your job is also to stimulate his intellectual growth. That's less complicated than it sounds — singing and talking are two wonderful ways to help a baby's brain shift into high gear. At playtime, your baby's hands and fingers are still his favorite toys, but now he might be able to do more with them than just insert them in his mouth. During tummy time (which he should be becoming a pro at by now), try rolling a ball about two feet in front of him. With a little practice he'll soon be able to coordinate his hand and eye movements to reach for ito wonderful ways to help a baby's brain shift into high gear.
