little guy had his 8mth check up (bit late as he turns 9 mths on the 24th). not on the weight chart still, which is annoying bc i think he looks lovely atm! didn't quite crack the 7kg mark, weighing in at 6.93kgs. he's grown 4cm's though, so mchn said he must be putting all his energy in to length. we will have another check in a couple of months, she's not worried but wants to keep an eye on him. i feel the same, so happy with this approach. other than weight, he is developing really well. happy, healthy, he has two bottom teeth now & is working on his 'fangs' atm with one basically through already. still commando crawling around, and popping up on his knees often but deciding that commando is just more efficient at this stage. going well with food, but been a bit off today bc of his teeth. sleep is still all over the place at night... at least 2-3 wakeups usually around 12am, 2/3am & 5am. then up at 7/7.30am. he goes down straight after a boob, often falling asleep during a feed. i think he just needs a bit more comfort atm while he's teething, so while im getting quite tired, im just going with it still (rather than spending too much time/energy re-settling without a feed). we are getting more sounds too which is just lovely to hear.
I check in from time to time, but seem to get called away before I can post.
All is going well here. We're still at 2.5 teeth (all on the bottom, no top teeth yet). Sleeping mostly well at night, stirs once or twice but usually resettles herself. Morning sleep is great - she usually only lasts a couple of hours after waking up before she's back in bed, but her afternoon sleep is non-existent some days. It makes for a long afternoon/evening when she's awake from 11am-7pm. We still haven't done the 8mth check-up either. Or 6mth needles Things have been crazy full-on with the boys and DH's work. Must write myself a note to remind me to sort it out after Easter. Speaking of Easter, is anyone planning on giving chocolate to their little one? Being a 3rd time Mumma I am a lot more relaxed these days, but still not keen on chocolate. Step-Mum told me she'd give Emily a white chocolate frog... ummmm no, I don't think so!
