Motor Skills
-
Hannah’s getting stronger in her kicks. She also loves to splash the water with her feet when I bathe her.
-
She can open and close her hands sometimes.
-
More eager at batting the toys hung in front of her.
-
Can hold head up at an angle when placed on her tummy.
-
Can rotate her whole body while placed on her back on a flat surface.
-
Once, it felt like she was trying to stand when I held her against me, and her feet were pressed on my thighs, as if she was standing with support!
-
Likes to be propped up. She loves to *sit* on the sofa, or held in a sitting position when carried.
Communication and Social Skills
-
Hannah’s loud throaty sounds are getting less, especially after we started using a humidifier.
-
She has started cooing and making sounds in response to what we speak. Sounds like “oooh” and “aaah” are her specialties.
-
More smiles now 🙂
-
Cries are getting louder and stronger and more persistent, sometimes to the extend of “sounding out of key”. The word we are looking for here is “heartwrenching”.
-
Eye contact is more apparent and she will follow our movements intently with her eyes.
Others
Hannah can sometimes sleep for about 5 hours straight during the night, but it is not consistent. Hopefully our sleepless nights will be a thing of the past soon.
Food and Feeding
She is 100% on Mommy’s milk. However, because her weight is on the higher end of the scale, her doctor has asked us to try giving her slightly less to drink; perhaps removing the breast a little sooner or feeding her just one breast during the night, or try going through the night without a feed. On the other hand, I feel that Hannah can gauge when she is full because she would sometimes reject the breast, unlike her brother the last time.
