Leah at 1 month old

For Jacob i have a piece of paper with what Jacob was like at 1 month old and since I type quicker then i write i am going to go ahead and post it on here so i don't forget how she was :)

-Makes good eye contact and when I talk and look at her when she's crying, she stops crying
- nurses every 2-3 hrs during the day and then is awake from 8pm-1am wanting to nurse frequently which then causes her to spit up frequently and be full of painful gas! She is nursing very well now and I am definitely enjoying the bonding of it.
-starts each night around midnight to 1am in her bassinet but after sleeping only a few hours, ends up being pulled into bed with me to cosleep as she sleeps longer and better in bed with me. I hate doing this but it's the only way i'll get rest, she hates her bassinet! jimmy gets booted to the futon then so we all can get rest.
- spits up often with arching and crying afterwards, started on zegerid/mylanta which has seemed to help unless i miss a dose, than there's a good day of crying!
-poops only 1-2 times a day.. woohoo! and pees constantly after just having her diaper changed.
-some days she'll sleep all day and other days she likes to be fussy and cry all day
-does not like getting a bath, but likes her hair being washed
-smiled at 3wks/6days at me
-loves to be held
-she looks just like my baby picture!
