Six Months Old



Davis is sleeping 13-14 hours in a 24 hour period. He sleeps 11-12 hours straight at night. We had to start supplementing again because on our trip to Florida he lost weight :( He eats every 2-3 hours during the day and is asleep by 1900 and up by 0730. Finally the naps are more consistent. He usually is up for two hours in the morning playing and then will go right to sleep for his morning nap He then is awake for two-three hours before he takes his afternoon nap. Both naps last between 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours long. Not long after he gets up from his afternoon nap, Daddy comes home and he plays with him while Mommy cooks dinner. We eat dinner by 1730 and start our bedtime routine around 1830.

He will grab anything within reach, particularly when he is supposed to be nursing. If there is anything on the couch, before I know it he will be playing with it.



  •  Very interested in our food. Now that he is six months old, we will start solids.

  • Can sit up in small spurts on his own and even longer with the boppy propping him up.
  • All of this new things are wearing the boy out, He has started rubbing his eyes or even laying his head down when he is tired
  •  Davis has started to yawn really loud, too (just like his mommy!).
  • The boy's unconventional way of getting around but it works. He started out sitting up with the boppy around him. Ten minutes later had scooted in between the laundry.

    At his six month appointment, weighs 13 pounds 11 ounces (2nd percentile), 26 inches long (35%) and head circumference is 17 1/4 (52%)
