1. How old today: 1 Month (past Saturday actually)
2. Current weight & length: 4.1 kg at last weigh in, not sure about height
3. Recent milestone reached: He is becoming more alert when awake, looking around. He has very good neck control for a 4 week old.
4. Next milestone: Smiling! I cant wait
5. How is baby sleeping at night? Logan is a brilliant sleeper for now, and I really hope it stays this way. He normally feeds around 9 pm, sleeps till 3 am, feed and sleeps again till 7 - 8 am. Loving all the sleep.
6. Day naps? He sleeps really well in the day as well. He sleeps for 3 - 4 hours, sometimes I have to wake him to feed and will then be awake for around an hour, this will include nappy change, feeding and burping.
7. How is feeding going? Only breastfeeding. I've expressed 3 times since he was born, just to make sure he is okay drinking from a bottle when I go back to work. He feeds really well, drinks a solid 10 minutes without brakes or falling asleep in between.
8. Feeding times? 3 - 4 hourly
9. What has been the recent baby highs? Logan being more awake and alert. I cannot get enough of this little person and really enjoy cuddling him.
10. And baby lows? He has been spitting up a bit the last few days, but he does not seem to bothered, but I want to mention it at his 6 week checkup.
11. How is the rest of the family doing? I think we have adjusted well as a family of 4. I think our biggest challenge will be when I return to work, especially because I work far from home so leave early and get home late and also the fact that I am studying part-time
12. What has been working best recently, baby-related? I am really trying to stick to the Sleepsense sleeping guide, I think it is playing a part in the fact that Logan is a good sleeper, but he has also been very content from the beginning. There has been once or twice where I kept him awake longer than suggested and I really struggled getting him to sleep then.
