Some things to remember about him at three months old:
- He has been sleeping through the night for over a month now. He gets fussy between 5:00 and 6:00 and we start bath time at 6:00. He loves the bath and it instantly makes him happy again. We play and splash and then he eats for usually around 40 minutes. He then gets wrapped up in his swaddle, kiss and hug and down for bed! He doesn't have to be rocked or held. He just lays there and talks for a while and then puts himself to sleep. Eric and I cook dinner after he goes to bed and I pour myself a well deserved glass of wine! He usually wakes up about 6:30. I wish he would sleep a little longer, but I will take it!
- He eats like a champ. He eats 5 times a day, every three hours during the day. We are still exclusively breast feeding. He is growing, healthy boy!
- He takes a nap after each feeding as well. Usually a longer one after the first feeding and no nap after his last feeding usually (see above - fuss baby at this time!)
- He has become very talkative this last month! He loves to make noises and especially talk to his dad. They have their special talking times and have a lot of fun.
- He also has found his hands this past month. He sucks on them from time to time and is able to grab things now.
- There really is not too big of interest in toys right now. I try to interest him in things, but usually nothing works. He lays on his little play mat and looks at the hanging toys and will grab them some.
- Smiles! He has the biggest smiles now! It is super cute. As mentioned above, he is quite talkative and usually this leads to smiles! When he is nursing, he will stop and look up at me and just smile and grin and it melts my heart! So sweet. He really is the sweetest baby boy. The only time he is really fussy is in the evening and if it is hungry. Usually an easy fix!
- He is into looking at the television if it is on.
