We had our 1 month appointment today for William and the stats are...
10 pounds, 5 ounces
23.5 inches
Talk about a growing boy! 1 ounce shy of gaining a total of 3 pounds in one month. Wow!
We also talked to William's doctor about starting a sleep routine. Last night he slept one stretch of 5 1/2 hours. 4 hours had been his maximum, so we were very pleased to say the least. His doctor said he'd like for him to go down for the night around 8 pm and that those stretches will progressively get longer. We have been putting him "down for the night" at around 10-11 pm. I kind of like the idea of a later bedtime so I'm not waking up at 1 am because he went down at 8 pm... I'll have to ask my mommy friends about this one! We also decided we'd give the crib a whirl. I just put him down for a "nap" a couple hours ago and he went down pretty well. He didn't nap the entire 2 hours, but he was down for a good hour.
Baby steps! No pun intended.
