So Brooklyn has been doing great with news things lately. About a week ago we started to change up her schedule slightly. We started giving her her last bottle before bed between 8 - 8:30 and then right to sleep after that. In addition waking her up between 7-7:30am (but mostly she is already waking at this time on her own and has been stirring) and feeding her every 3-3.5 hours in the day with one long nap and more short ones. Doing this she will now sleep 7 hours!!! Can I get a hell yeah! Yep I am really proud of her and thankful that this schedule is seeming to work for her. She will sleep till about 3:30am and then we feed her and back down until the morning. Sometimes she does fuss in between, but we just give her her pacifier and "training" her to not need food. We know she can go 7 hours so that is awesome.

I love my hands above my head when I sleep |
She also loves her playmat and will spend about an hour on it at a time just happy and content. She will look around, kick her legs, coo and "talk" and just seems to be so happy. I love hearing her like that. I feel like a proud mom, even though I didn't do anything, lol.

I love my playmat |
According to the milestone chart she is right on track with
vocalizing, following objects, noticing her hands, and holding her head
for short times. She is advanced in that she can smile, hold her head at
a 45degree angle and can bear weight on her legs. She has her 2 month
doctor apt in about a week so I am sure we will hear and find out more.
And now for some "Brooklyn talking time" Sorry for how dark the video is. I took it on a rainy day and with the camera quickly.
Love to hear her "talk" to you! Thanks for letting me peek into her life.:)
ReplyDelete"Didn't do anything"? Lol, yeah like you didn't spend the last 9 months growing her! :)
