I am so proud of her as only a Mommy can be...cause it's not like she does all that much ;) Every day though is something new ~ a new facial expression, a realization of a new part of her world, a new coo. She has already changed so much in the last month ~ the miracle of her life is so amazing to me. Even on the roughest day of nonstop fussiness, when I haven't had a shower, am covered in baby spit-up and am totally exhausted ~ one look into those big blue trusting eyes so filled with unconditional love and my heart melts. She truly has the power to right everything in my world in a single moment...the love of a child is one that you simply cannot explain...
At one month ~
- We have now officially been diagnosed with acid reflux after a trip to the pediatrician, followed by an ultrasound at Texas Children's to eliminate an anatomical issue with her pylorus, take Prevacid twice a day and Mylanta every four to six hours.
- Weighed 7 lbs 11 ozs at above said appointment (with clothes so more like 7 lbs 9 ozs) = 25th percentile
- Still wear newborn clothes and diapers
- Eat about 3 oz per feeding ~ and spit-up a LOT (see above acid reflux diagnosis)
- Are now sleeping about 4 hours at a time :)
- Make the cutest mouse sounds ever!
- Enjoy baths
- Still love being swaddled, held, patted and rocked
- Think ceiling fans are super cool
- Have decided the swing is so much more fun than the bouncy seat
- Rarely find your playmat entertaining and more often than not get annoyed by tummy time
- Officially rolled over on one side today ~ Happy One-Month Birthday! (Time will tell if this was a random fluke since she was inclined in her pack-and-play, but she did it more than once so I'm thinking milestone partially accomplished??)
- And finally...GET CUTER BY THE MINUTE!!!
Mommy and Daddy love you more than life Boo-Bear!
