1 Month

I can't believe our baby girl is already one month old!! It seems just like yesterday that I was pushing her out and meeting her beautiful face. This month has been challenging, but wonderful at the same time. I can say that we have finally mastered breastfeeding. She is latching on successfully and there is no longer any pain. Thank goodness! I truly love the bonding that we have with it. 

• Diaper Size: Newborn (but think we might have to go up soon)
• Clothes Size: Newborn 
• Eat: Breastmilk 6 times a day. We do a bottle (4oz) before bed and in the middle of the night (or early morning). The remaining time she is nursing for about 15-20 minutes on each side.
• Sleep: She has been sleeping throughout the night (around 6 hours), but still occasionally wakes up around 3am. She naps about 4 times a day for a couple hours each time. 
• Play: She enjoys her play mats and the swing. She does enjoy tummy time. Can't wait to start introducing different activities next month during tummy time. 
• Milestones: She can hold her head up for a long period of time. She is very alert and follows objects or people as they move. She has started reaching for objects and pulls and hits the object. She even holds on really well to mommy's hair :) Plus she started sleeping at night for a longer period of time (about 6 hours)
• Likes: Her binky, being swaddled, cuddling, the swing, car rides and bath time
• Dislikes: Being naked and when her binky falls out
• Personality: Starting to smile
