Mamapan and others - in regards to the wrapping Sam was getting out of his wraps too but I know he still needs wrapping as he won't settle without either. I am using the kiddopotamus wraps (excuse spelling) they have two things of velcro on them and he doesn't get out of them. It is really easy and has been great the last few weeks so I would recommend them if you still need to wrap.
Bekz - I have always fed Sam in the dark in his room. I have a comfy chair in there, so I get him up with just the night light on, feed him in the chair and pop him back into bed. He has always gone straight back to sleep after the feed with no dramas. I have had him in his cot from day 1 though because I knew if I had him in my room, he would never leave!!!
Sam is still in 0000's!! You guys are moving great guns!! I think though in the next week or so it will be 000, the jumpsuits are starting to get a bit tighter but actual t shirts and clothing is still okay.
Sam has slept from 10pm til 6am the last 4 nights in a row!! I am so happy!! I am not expecting it to last though, with daylight saving and also he hit 12 weeks this week so I am sure it will all go out the window!! He is talking a lot now and touching and grabbing at objects in his play gym which is great. He really is discovering his hands. We are in a pretty good feed/play/sleep routine. He is feeding around every 3 hours during the day and staying awake for just around 1 hr 15 now at a time. He went to sleep so well the minute the sun went down so as his bedtime is around 6pm, he is a little harder to settle as it isn't dark yet!! We start our day at 6am though.
We are moving next Wednesday! House is almost packed! Problem is, his bedroom at the moment is right next time mine and the new house he is right at the other end of the house! I think I am going to have seperation issues big time!! We are also moving to a two storey house so now in our little house I can always check on him but now I have to go all the way up stairs!! I am sure I will be right after a few weeks! Hope he settles in his new room, I think it is a fair bit lighter than the one he is in now which may affect things.
Jess - hope everything is going okay? I hope you can have a good chat with the gp.
lovely cate - sometimes the feed/play/sleep thing doesn't work and I feel like his cues are slightly changing too! Sam was only staying awake right on an hour, now he is just going past that so I am really trying to re learn his cues again!!
Miss excited - great to hear Ash is sleeping through too!! I thoroughly enjoyed a few glasses of wine with friends on sunday evening! So good to be social again and feel a bit like your old self again!
Sorry to anyone I have missed, trying to get ready to get to the gym this morning, do a load of washing, eat something all before Sam wakes up!! his morning sleep is usually his longest - but as we all know they keep you guessing every day!! Hope everyone is well!
Question - how often are you guys taking your babies to the weighing stations? I last went around 9 weeks and haven't been back, Sam is 12 weeks this week so I guess I should look at weighing him again??
