2 Months



 
Natalie stats:
  • Head Circumference - 15in (20%)
  • Weight - 8lbs 11oz (less than 3%)
  • Length -  21.5in (10%)
  • Clothes - 0-3 Months (big on her)
  • Diapers - Size 1 (big on her)
  • Food - The soy formula we had her on was making her constipated, so we called the pediatrician and they suggested switching her back to Gentlease - they said the soy is extremely binding on infants.  She still has gas, but we are using gas drops and Gripe water which seem to help.  She usually takes 5-6 4 oz bottles per day/night.
  • Sleep - Still sleeping great.  In fact, she slept the entire night (10pm to 7am) just a couple days ago, but normally will go down between 10-11pm then wake up once during the night around 2-3am to eat.  She wakes up in the mornings aound 6-7am, but will take a bottle then go right back down until around 10am.  Wesley wasn't the best sleeper, so this has been refreshing!  She is still in the bassinet next to our bed, but I'm planning on moving her to her crib in her room soon - we'll see how that goes :) And if it actually happens by 3 months!  It is just so convenient to roll over and change her/feed her than to go to another room.
  • Talents/interests - She's a very happy baby for the most part - as you can see from her pictures!  She smiles a lot.  She does have a set of lungs and is not afraid to use them when she is upset or hungry though.  She will fuss and get cranky when she is sleepy - I don't remember Wesley doing that.  She is a mommas girl right now.  She has what we call 'crazy' arms - her arms are really long (she gets that from my side), and when she is uncomfortable or upset she will thrash her arms around wildly in protest.  She hates to be swaddled.  She 'talks' and coos quite a bit.  I can't wait until she starts laughing!  So far she seems to have a sweet, calm personality.  We'll see if I'm singing the same tune when she's 2!
