rosie 3 months
Rosie will be 3 months on Friday! She has been varying her sleeping patterns a lot lately - a few nights ago she wouldn’t go to sleep until around 1am and then she was up at 5, nursed and went back to sleep for about an hour - and then was up for the day - last night she slept from 12 to 7am - some nights she stays asleep (except for short wake to nurse times) from 11pm to 9am - some nights she barely sleeps for 4-5 hours - I hope she will settle down into a somewhat predictable routine soon. I have been trying to not let her nap too much during the day - thinking that it would help to keep her sleeping at night - but sometimes she is just so completely asleep - she won’t wake up!
Today we left the house at about 1pm - right after she nursed herself to sleep - we ran a bunch of errands - in and out of the car a lot - and she stayed asleep the whole time, even after we got home at about 3:30 she stayed asleep in her car seat while I ate lunch - and I just now woke her up to nurse - after solidly sleeping for over 3 hours! I feel like she would have just continued to sleep if I hadn’t have woken her - and then maybe she would have a hard time sleeping at night…not sure if this is the right thing to do or not - I just ordered the No Cry Sleep Solution from Amazon - hoping it will arrive soon and answer all my sleeping baby questions…
On another note - my girl has definitely found her voice - she has been babbling and cooing a lot lately - and instead of the usually fussy whining cry when she is gassy - she has been letting out LOUD screaming crys. Plus she also does this thing when she gets fussy and is just about to cry where she breathes really fast in and out through her nose and she snorts!
It is so cute! I have to try to get it on videotape to embarrass her with later in life…
I am still hungry all the time!…I never seem to get enough to eat…I am trying to drink more water to keep my belly full so I don’t have the urge to snack all day - plus my sweet tooth is insane! I want candy and ice cream and cookies all day long! I am also starting an exercise routine to try to get my pre prego body back - my goal is to walk a mile or do 1/2 hour of yoga every day (not big goals - but hey - its a start!)
