Three Months Old

Graham is now 3 months old. We thank God daily for the incredible blessing we have in Graham. He has started "talking" a lot and we can occasionally get him to giggle. It is so cute to hear his sweet little voice! He has also discovered his hands and he is good at getting them in his mouth. He has never liked his paci but I have caught him several times with his pointer finger in his mouth. I am hoping he is not going to be a thumb sucker!

We took Graham in for his GI appointment on April 1st. We almost decided not to go because he has been so much better but Graham's doctor suggested that we go ahead and go. Dr. Hunt checked him out and retested his stools and there was no blood. She didn't feel the need to run any further tests. She suggested to continue everything we are doing (Nutramegin, prevacid, mylanta and cereal in bottles) until he is 6 months old and then gradually try to reintroduce a milk based formula and see if he can tolerate.

Other facts -

*Weight - 12 lb. 7 oz.
*Clothes size - 3-6 months
*He still loves his baths so he gets 2 a day.
*Loves riding in the car. We recently had to take his snuggler out of car seat because he was getting to big for it plus it is getting a little warm.
*Drinks 6-7 bottles a day (3-4 oz. each)
*He is still losing his hair and what he still has stands straight up.

As soon as I think we have him on a schedule something changes. He had one night where he slept 11 hours straight. Most nights he eats around 7-8 pm and then wakes up at midnight and has a bottle and then sleeps until around 6-7 am. Not terrible but could be better. He always naps between feedings during the day. He normally eats, stays awake for awhile and then naps before he eats again. I am trying to stick to the Baby Wise way.

There is nothing sweeter than moments like these. They love each other so much. It melts my heart when they smile and talk to each other.
