This month has welcomed some new milestones for Shai. Nothing obvious, well, only to me
He is eating like a pro. He closes his mouth on the spoon to scrape off the food. He audibly gulps his mush and opens wide for another bite. When he swallows, he only loses a little bit of [...]

My baby boy is growing fast!!
Rolling from front to back and back to front on his own.
Learning how to sit up, but is more like a weeble wobble. He folds in half a little bit, but more likely falls over to one side or the other. So his trunk muscles are strong enough to keep [...]

I am dying right now. Shai has been killing me w/ his night wakings. It’s that much harder b/c he used to sleep thru the nite!! From 2-4 mths he was wonderful, waking only once around 2-3am for a feeding then sleeping til 7am. NOW and for the last mth he’s been waking every 2.5-3hrs [...]

My baby boy is now 5 mths old and the time has just flown by! I am scared that in the blink of my eyes he’s gonna be a yr old already!
He’s a wonderful baby. Very easy and laid back.

Not a whole lot has changed since his 3.5mth update. His sleeping and eating habits are pretty much the same. Altho the last few nites he’s been waking every 3hrs to nurse (~12am, 3am, then 6am). He’s also trying hard to nurse to sleep. Regardless of when I nurse, he ends up suckling, and sleeping. [...]

My 3.5 mth old is doing great!!
He is sleeping thru the nite from ~9pm til 230am or 430am, then sleeps until morning ~7am. He still won’t stay awake for more than an hr at a time and naps all day long. On occasion he’ll give me a long 2-3hr nap stretch midday, which is [...]

What a terrible thing for an infant to have to experience – a growth spurt! I can only imagine how painful it is for Shai. So much so that he isn’t able to nap for more than 30-45mins at a time and has to nurse every 2hrs or less!! The first day it struck I [...]
