Two Months

Somehow one month turned into two months and my little lady is 8 weeks old already. How is this happening?
It's been a sad month, but we've kept busy and tried to take lots of trips in the car & pram while the weather is nice.
This month Georgia has:
  • Said goodbye to her great-grandmother, and cheered up the hearts of many sad family members. I'll never forget the joy she brought to my nanna, making her smile the day before she passed away.
  • Been sleeping for longer stints at night - usually between 11-4am. Well done, baby girl!
  • Had her first park play-date/picnic lunch with her little friend, R. 
  • Started using her dummy more regularly, mostly to help her nod off to sleep.
  • Broken out in her first batch of milk spots/hormonal baby rash. It popped up on her neck, back & face!
  • Started to smile and laugh, though not regularly - I can't wait to see her happy face all the time.

  • Managed to get through her first batch of shots - the 6-week vaccinations. She was a trouper: screamed in the first one, sobbed through the second one, but felt better after mummy cuddles.
  • Discovered the witching hour(s) - she is an absolute terror in the late afternoons/evenings. Inconsolable crying, feeding all the time, struggling to sleep. It's been exhausting for all of us. :(
  • Continued to solely breastfeed, and is doing a really good job of it!
  • Gained more weight, and is up around 4.6kg. She's a petite little thing; though you wouldn't think so by looking at her chubby cheeks and edible arm and thigh folds. :)
  • Almost outgrown her 0000 clothing, but is still too small for most 000. Her arms/legs are too short for them, but we're putting her in them so that she's got room to move. (Singlets underneath help bulk her up too.)
  • Mastered rolling over. We can't really spend much tummy-time on the floor any more, because she uses her feet to flip herself onto her back. Clever girl!
