One Month Fun Facts:
- She weighs 5 pounds 6 ounces! (That was her weight 2 days before her one month.) Of course, she isn't on the growth charts for weight or length.
- She was 16 and 7/8 inches at her 2 week check-up and hasn't been measured since then. Her "Aunt" Chrissy says she will just get to wear really tall heels one day! :)
- She eats 7-8 times a day. I am mostly nursing but she's had a few bottles of breast milk when I have needed a few extra hours of sleep. She eats about 2 ounces!
- She wakes up about twice a night. She eats between 11-12pm and 3-4am. I am trying to read BabyWise but between thank you notes, weekly doctor's visits, and squeezing in naps, I haven't made it too far.
- She isn't a fussy baby at all but she makes grunting noises all the time. Her doctor says not to worry unless the noises are waking her up or making her cry.
- She is wearing Preemie diapers but we are going to switch to Newborn this week. Newborn are a little big but we have lots of boxes of them so no sense in continuing to buy preemie.
- She wears mostly white Gerber Newborn Onsies while we are home. We have a few preemie outfits that she wears when we "dress up". Newborn clothes are still too big on her.
- Layla loves: sleeping on her dad's chest, Soothie pacifiers (they are as big as her face - hehe), bathtime, eating, riding in her carseat, and having her hands by her head.
- Layla doesn't like: tummy time (but she is very good at it - already so strong!), having her nose suctioned, having her hands swaddled and getting dressed.
- She is so funny when she is hungry! She opens her mouth wide and attacks anything that gets near it. I will have to post a video.
Layla got to meet her big sister Sugar when she got home from Jackson. Sugar is very jealous of all the attention Layla gets and she pouts a lot. I think she is used to being an only child. Sugar is sweet and gives Layla lots of kisses.
First day they met
Now they are BFF
