One Month Old


Nicholas is one month old.  He had a good check-up.  He's a growing boy!  Here are his stats:

Weight: 9 lbs, 9oz (60%)
Length: 22.5 in (90%)
Head: 14.75 (50%)

Nicholas has his first cold.  I think he caught the sniffles from Mikaela.  It disrupted his sleep quite a bit Thursday night, but he did better on Friday with the humidifier.

Sleeping:  He's actually doing quite well.  His average sleep pattern is bed around 10, sleep til 2 or 3, then up again at 6 or 7.  He has given us one 6 hour stretch so far.  There are still some nights where he wakes every 3-4 hours.  He doesn't quite have a schedule down yet.  He sleeps in his crib in his room.  He only slept one night in the pack n play.  On rough nights (such as his cold or reflux), he sometimes sleeps with dad in the recliner so he can be more upright.

Activities: He tolerates his swing (turned off) for a few moments.  He seems to like the bouncy chair better.  He'll do tummy time for a few moments and lifts his head quite well.  He enjoys watching his sister dance and  play around him.

We'll see if next month he holds up two fingers.
