Noah is 1 Month Old

Yup, Noah is one month old today. We went to the doctor's office this morning and Dr. Jafri says he is doing so great. Here are his stats:

11 lbs
23" long (92nd percentile)

Sleep habits: Sleep, what is that. Just kidding. He is starting to be more alert after each feeding, so he is sleeping less. He can't fall asleep on his own yet, but that is expected. He will usually wake up 30 minutes after I put him down too, which is tiring for me at nights. He is a loud sleeper. By that I mean, when he is in his light sleep cycle, which is still quite long, he makes grunting noises. That keeps me awake most of the night.  He is not sleeping through the night yet. He has had one or two nights where he has slept 5 hours, but for the most part he is up for feedings every 3 hours and then wakes up some times in between too. We are zombies here!!

Eating habits:  He is still nursing 100%. He eats every 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I do have to wake him up to eat during the day.  The reason for that is that he doesn't go down to nap very easily so sometimes he has only an hour of sleep before it is time to eat soooo I...wake...him.. up... I know, it is a crime, but I am trying to get his wake/feed/sleep cycles in order. 

I started putting him in some of his 3-6 month clothes because he is so long. He is still in size 1 diapers, but I think he is ready to move onto size 2. I just have to finish using up size 1. Those suckers are expensive... I already had to waste some newborns..

Overall, he is a good baby. He has an "air" problem, so once he fixes that problem, he is calm and taking in his surroundings.

Happy One Month Birthday Bubba!!!
