At his two month visit with Dr. Shockley, Luke weighed 11 pounds 3 ounces (31% for babies his age), 22.5 inches long (37%), and head circumference was 15 inches (27%).
Luke nurses every 2-3.5 hours during the day. He has a longer stretch of 3.5-4.5 hours with his afternoon nap and will cluster feed in the evenings. At night he has one long stretch between feeds (6.5-8.5 hours) and then a shorter stretch.
Luke sleeps 13.5-15 hours in a 24 hour period. He does well sleeping in his crib. He is usually up for the day by 0730 and will be awake and alert for about 1.5 hours before he starts getting tired and fussy
.
Kim West's Good Night Sleep Tight has helped to get him in a good routine. As soon as I put the sleep sack on, he settles right in for nap.
He takes a morning nap around 0900 and an afternoon nap around 1300. He will sleep 1.5-2 hours in the morning and 2-3 hours in the afternoon. He will take one more little nap around suppertime. We start our bedtime routine by 1900 with bath time with Davis. He is asleep between 1930-2000. Since I stopped eating sausage he isn't nearly as fussy in the evenings.
Here are tidbits from this month:
- Wears mostly 0-3 month clothes and some 6 month clothes, size 1 diaper
- He is my cuddlebug! He will be fussing and as soon as he gets picked up and cuddled in he will settle right down!
- Is not a fan of the car seat
- Sleeps on his tummy
- Has the sweetest smile!
