(I took her one month photo next to my old Pound Puppy, to show how big she is! Her onesie says "Bobblehead" :)
At 11:25 tonight Madeline will officially be one month old (4 weeks, 3 days)! It really has flown by, it feels like yesterday that I was so impatient for her to be born.
One month old includes:
- lifting her head for a few seconds, or holding it up by herself when she is being held up
- she can get on her side when placed on her back
- coos, and makes noises
- goes through several diapers in a day
- only cries when needs a diaper change, is hungry, or overly tired
- sleeps in bed with mom and dad (we tried not to). She falls asleep while nursing and wakes me a couple times in the night to nurse, and each time we both fall asleep.
- focuses eyes on objects, follows objects with eyes
- has just stared hitting at things, and tries to grab at them
- smiles (I think it is intentionally)
- loves taking baths in the bath tub
- loves being carried in the mei tai carrier
- will drink from a bottle
- does not manage to suck a pacifier yet (only if held in her mouth for her)
- fits into size 1 diapers, and 0-3 month clothes
Happy One Month Birthday Madeline Mae!
We love you!
