He is still working on sleep. There is no definite pattern, but he usually has wide awake time at night, not falling asleep until after 1am. At that point, he often get a good 3-3.5 hour chunk followed by a quick snack and another 2 hours. He has lots of sleepy time during the day, although every day is different. He has become a super eater, feedings are finally relatively quick and painless. Phew, what a relief! The acne is still in full force, covering most of his scalp and his cheeks. Every day it's different- healing in some places but sprouting new pimples in others.
On Monday I took him to the first of 6 new mom's group sessions at Isis Maternity. There are 10 of us with new babies. Even though he is the second youngest, I am pretty sure Caiden is one of the biggest babies in the class! I felt lucky though, as several babies cried through the entire 2 hour class and lunch afterwards. Caiden definitely has his fussy moments, but he *usually* will settle down easily with a little comforting (or food). Hopefully I didn't just jinx it... knocking on wood!
"Why are you wet?" This is a joke Dan and I have. We frequently find ourselves asking Caiden this question. He's either puked on himself, covered himself with milk, or leaked pee or poo out of his diaper. A few days ago I had a "why are you wet" moment with him, only to realize it was poo that had made it out of the top of the diaper and soaked his back. I went to change him, and he puked on the changing table and then peed before I could fasten up the fresh diaper. Sigh. I am continuously covered with one of these fluids!
Nana Nan came over for Caiden's first submersion bath yesterday. He did not like it one bit!! I had waken him up from a nap for the bath though, I'm hoping he was just tired and will enjoy the next one.
