Kaylin 3 Months


Baby girl is 3 months old!!

Weight 10.4(on our scale) 
Length 24"

Diet: Still eating every 2-3 hours during the day. And about 4-5 at night,  I still wake her up to eat at night to make sure we keep gaining weight. She got a cold last month that lasted about a week and a half. She lost some weight and got down to 9.6lbs so she has gained almost a pound in the past 2 weeks. So doing good but still a slow gainer. 

Sleep: Sleeps really good at night! I give her a bath between 8:30 and 9:30 swaddle her, and feed her, in the dark in our room and after eating she is out! Wakes up between 9-10 every morning. She is not a good napper though! We still haven't settled into a good napping routine. If I rock her or lay with her in our bed she will(eventually)  go to sleep but if I try to lay her down or get out of bed so I can get some work done she usually wakes up. If I feed her before we leave she will usually fall asleep in the car seat when we go run errands. So if nothing else we can usually get in 1 nap.

This was one day I rocked her to sleep then laid her down in bed and she woke up, twice! I finally put her on her tummy to play and she fell asleep.

Mood: She is a very happy baby! Even when she starts getting hungry and fussy if you talk to her she will smile at you!

Activities: She loves laying on her back or tummy(most of the time) under her playmat. She hold her head and chest up for a long time! Has been able to roll over for over a month but doesn't do it very often. I guess just when she feels like it :) we have recently started sitting her up on her tummy or back on the Boppy pillow. I can't believe how big she is getting! If you are holding her she likes to be sitting up and facing out. If you try to cradle her like a newborn she will lift her head up and crunch her little abs like she's trying to sit up. We got the Bumbo out because she was constantly trying to sit up. She does fine for a few minutes then her back gets tired. We'll probably try it again in a couple weeks - a month.
Clothes: Wearing size 2 disposable diapers at night and when we are out and about. During the day,  at home we started using Bum Genius cloth diapers. So far they are working great! Still in 0-3 Month  clothes but some of then she starting to get snug :( Her swaddle blankets got too small so we had to buy the size Large.

We enjoy "talking"  to her. She is super vocal with her little squeals, coos and grunts. When she is laying on the floor she just jabbers on and on. So cute! Can't believe how big she is getting!
We love you Kaylin!
