Hektor 6 months




At 6 months...
Biggest news, sleep training! Aka cry it out. Night tnree tonite. The problem is he wakes up in the middle of the night wanting to be soothed. Hes not hungry, not hot or cold, just needy and hasnt figured out how to self sooth. Our pediatrician said it was time. I was going to do it anyways, cause i really need to sleep! So it was reassuring to hear it frm his dr. The first night was horrible. He cried for two and a half hours off and on. Yes, i know that seems like forever and im sure some of you moms will think its cruel, but you cant judge others cause u never know what youll do when in certain situations. And in this situation i am desperate for sleep! So night two he woke up twice1 and 3 am. He fussed for 10 min the first time and 7 the second. We will see how night three goes!
*he eats a lot! Everyone talks about how girls are expensive cause of all the clothes. Well he is gonna be expensive to feed!
*he sweats a lot. Therefore, stinks a lot. So he takes more baths than Sofia. Lol.
*eats carrots, green beans, sweet potatoes, pears, and cereal. His favorite is sweet potatoes.
* he is 17 pounds, 26 inches.
*still hasnt had diaper rashes the way sofia would get them. Not sure if its a boy thing, or because of the cloth diapering, if hes still too young, or what.
*no teeth yet.come to think of it i think the diaper rashes began when the teething started. So ill keep a look out for that.
*lovesssss mum mums. Sofia never did, so this was a shock to me.
*wears 9 month clothing
*smiley
* mommas boy, and i love it, for now at least. It does have some cons. For example, when im exhaustedand erik wants to take him but he still wants me. :(
*he talks a lot too. Need to record it asap.
*still doesnt like being left in bumbo or bouncer much. He loves arms.
*he rolls over
*not sitting up yet. He never lets me put him down, so he doesnt get much practice time!
Hes the cutest. Happy half birthday Hektor. Already thinking of possible birthday themes for him... Awww! Love love love him to pieces!
