Simmy is two months old! Time is flying-it's such a short amount of time, yet feels like forever! The transition has been seamless, and your older siblings are smitten with you. Marshall especially loves your pacifiers and spit up. Hannah always comments on how cute you are. Moshe loves his baby sister and takes such pride in you. Dovy has formed a bond with you like no other, "my Simmy," always the first to rush to your side, in the mornings, when he comes home from school, or when you cry.
Weight: 9 lbs 1 oz
Height: 21 in.
Milestones: you've begun tracking things you enjoy, like your mobile on the Mamaroo, and you love to be over a shoulder to look at the blinds in the living room.
You are able to push up to a standing position when you're being held.
You lift your head and chest
Likes: your pacifier, but only when you want it
being held-all the time
Dislikes: diaper changes make you scream!
you do not like the swing
Sleep: you will usually sleep for at least two hour stretches at a time during the night and typically go back to sleep after a good burp. You do a long stretch in the early morning while in the Mamaroo, waking up around 10am. You sleep soundly on our outings, but not if we're home during the day. You sleep much better if you're swaddled at night.
Medical: you are growing, but you're tiny, just like your big brother Moshe! We suspect you have reflux and/or colic so we are starting medicine and probiotic drops tomorrow to see if this helps.
Eating: we are still successfully nursing on demand. You usually do three hour stretches during the day, but have recently increased to every two hours. You were cluster feeding from 5pm-11pm, but you've started to be more calm during that time, even falling asleep sometimes! You have giant man burps and lots of spit up!
