Mommies of 4 month old check in

So ladies, how are your 4 month olds doing?

DD is 4 months next week and she is:

Rolling over from back to tummy (and tummy to back)
Lifting her head up and looking around on tummy and supporting herself on her arms
Eating 6-7 (mostly 7) x a day 6 oz of bm or nursed when im home
Bears weight on her legs when "standing"
Tries to sit up when laying across my lap
Grabs rattle (and everything else lol)
Sleeping 7-8 (sometimes 9 ) hours
Laughing loud belly laughs and squeals Chat Icon
"talking" a lot to herself in her crib (at 4 am lol)
Gets excited when she sees me and dh
We took our first mommy and me class and she LOVED it.

She was 25 in and 13.9 lbs at her 3month well visit
Things I want to work on:

Sttn
More consistent nap schedule ( she goes down much easier now)


How are your lo's doing?

Patrick will be 4 mos. on Saturday! Chat Icon

I have no clue on his stats; he goes for his visit next week. He was a bit over 14lbs six weeks ago, so best guess...16.5lbs?

*Sleeps 12 hours at night: 7:30-7:30.
*2-3 naps of 90 min to 2.5 hours.
*Eats 7oz four times per day. We just stopped nursing 2 days ago.
*Hasn't turned yet...well, he did once but it was a fluke. He's trying hard though!
*Also trying super-hard to pull himself up to sitting when he's in his swing or bouncy.
*Grabs his toys and eats them!

My big issue is his HORRIBLE excema. I feel like I'm constantly battling it.

Otherwise, he's a very chill baby. Hardly cries, generally content. He loves men--he's probably thinking, 'Please rescue me from all these broads...PLEASE!' Chat Icon All in all, he's just a good egg! Chat Icon

Re: Mommies of 4 month old check in

I'm jealous of the STTN!! We had to stop swaddling since she was rolling over. Plus, she was also moving her arms up the so swaddle part was going over her face so I was nervous about that too.

I am in awe of the beautiful little human DH and I created Chat Icon she amazes me more and more each day!

ds will be 4 months on march 1st. He is 17.1 lbs and 27 inches, big boy.

He has been STTN since about 11 weeks , he loves to nap a million times a day.

He is trying to roll over from belly to front and almost gets there but when on his back he coudl care less to even try to roll around he just loves to STAND all day long.

We still swaddle him bc his reflexes wake him up and it puts him to sleep in less than 1 minute. he is eating 5 times a day 3 bottles and 2 nursing times about 8 oz.

loves to grab my hair and anything else in his view

ticklish in neck
