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.
