I hide you away when you are grumpy and parade you out when you are settled.



You cry for food but only when I'm holding you. I think it's because you know I'm the cow. I call you little moo sometimes because you drink milk.

Your a motion junkie and love the carrier. Can sleep in the pram at times but it's definitely a lot harder for you. We use the dummy for sleep only - and it really works. At first it worked too well and I worried you slept too much (so I used it for special occasions only) and then it stopped working and you got picky about the dummy- and then when I got a top brand made from natural latex you became an addict again and now I see you suck it for longer and longer during nap times.

Your not a fan of tummy time but if I make it interesting you're very keen.

Your a smiley baby and smile at anybody with 100 watts.

I think so far you have my skin type and colouring - your hair is dark, I can already see your eyebrows (please have my thick ones) and your skin isn't pasty, it seems olive. But I cannot yet be sure.

Bed time was 2330, then 0930, then 0730, then now --

You've hit about 17 weeks and 3 days, right after I miraculously held a gigantic 3 parter hens with personalised t shirts for all attendees you regressed back to sleeping like a newborn with 2nd hourly wakings. This time is different though, this time. I know that if you've fed in the last 3 hours, then you cannot possibly be hungry. I am not uncertain about my supply.

You have a lot of milky posits, especially until somewhere around 10 weeks-- and perhaps for last 3 weeks it's been getting a bit better.

I've quit burping you - you burp yourself now. Usually during tummy time.

You hate being wrapped - since day 3ish you cry the house down if I'm trying to wrap you or put u in a bag to sleep, but if I don't, you literally don't sleep at all. So we've been bearing through it- you cry and we know that's normal for you.

Even if I manage to put you in the bag and not have you cry (which can happen if your not too tired and or I put one hand out - when you do cry, 90% of the time it means you are tired. Rarely do you cry for wet or hungry. Most poopy nappies I had zero warning that it might be afoot. Even wet, you will fall asleep - and then I have to just wait until you wake up to change you.

Your cry has levels. Whinging is what I call level 1, and if your really mad it goes until level 4. Just when you started to have the regression you did a lot more level 4 crying for a few days -- but 5 days into this regression thing and it seems to have settled.
