Month Two Highlights:
- Jonah ceases {most of the time} peeing mid-diaper change. Mommy and daddy elate in changing less outfits.
- Jonah goes from a weight check weigh-in of 5 pounds 11 ounces to 8 pounds 8 ounces!
- Jonah dons duds {and dipes} in newborn at first of month and works his way into 0-3 or {Carter’s} 3 month. He no longer “looks preemie”.
- Jonah still wakes every three-ish hours through the night to eat.
- Throughout the second month, Jonah screams and screams…and screams. He hates riding in the car.
- Jonah must be held. All. the. time. All the time.
- After a weigh-in, Jonah’s meds are increased by 40% which results in a MUCH happier Baby J {just in time for vacation}
- Jonah enjoys his first Czech Days in Wilber and then, his first family trip … to St. Louis {including surviving a 7+ hr car ride}
- Jonah’s GI intolerance
- Mommy still says no to dairy … and most soy.
- Fussy times are whenever, wherever
- Jonah continues to battle reflux
- Grunts in sleep
- Mommy steers clear of most spicy foods, citrus, and of course, dairy
- Jonah continues to sleep in mommy and daddy’s bedroom. And likely will until we have only one nightly feeding.
- Jonah continues to look like an old man but holds his head up quite well.
- Jonah coos and smiles! First smile just one day shy of two months … mommy is elated!
- Barrett continues to fall in love with “baby Jonah”. When he wants to talk to him, he gets very close and whispers who-knows-what to his “baby brawver Jonah”.
- Month two was more trying than month one. Mommy had a few {okay, at least 4} mega meltdowns after {entire} days spent holding and consoling a crabby/crying/cringing babe. With the change of medication, happier times seem to be headed our way!
