3 months!

September 12, 2012 by heatherss 9 Comments

Nic 3 months 014_778x583Three months have just flown by! I can hardly believe my little one has already reached this milestone.

I’ve noticed:

– His head is becoming stronger every day. He can move it side to side.
Nic 3 months 007_778x583– We are trying to create conditions for rolling over so I’m practicing by putting him on his tummy on the doughnut. When I turn him back over I get little smiles and giggles.

– Feeding and sleeping have also changed, but it’s difficult to say exactly how, because we don’t have a routine and I don’t keep track. However we normally only have the one wake up at night and he is awake during the day when he doesn’t want food or sleep for a bit. He just wants attention! He is still napping a lot during the day which is great.
375950_10151942722276758_691413485_n– I’ve started doing some stimulation stuff, even though I’m not sure if he’s that interested. I tried the play gym which if he touched it at all, it wasn’t intentional.
Nic 3 months 020_778x583I’ve also tried some reading. He likes it when I make the sounds for the transport book.
Nic 3 months 021_778x583My DH had fun with the feelings book since it is made of material and different textures and proved a good distraction while I was out.

I’m so happy that Giuliana had her baby!

    He is so gorgeous Heather – I love that smile in the first picture. So very happy for you and hoping you are getting more rest now that he’s only waking once a night. Can’t believe he is three months already.

    He is growing so quick, we missing out, by the time we see you, he be sitting. He is starting to look like B a bit, except for the eyes. Glad the first 3 months are over, nobody tells you, but the first three months are stressful.

    Heather…he’s adorable! With the rolling over, what we did is help her a bit and show her things above her head that she liked and keep moving them back and back and back, until she flipped. It took some time for sure, but she did it. And now when you put her on her belly, she flips quick! Now to go the other way! Good luck and you are doing great!

      Thanks for all the tips! He managed to do it last night (with the help of Dad!). Today he needed help again but I’m sure he will get it eventually.
