Wonder weeks - 4th leap

Huahine

My LO has entered the next wonder week fussy period.  He is eating less, feels floppier when I hold him, wants to be held more, and has trouble going down at night.  If I didn't know to expect these changes and have a sense of how long it was going to last, I would be exasperated.  But knowing that there is light at the end of the tunnel (around 19 weeks) helps.  And the is so much to look forward to! This is from the latest WW email:

After this leap, your baby's skills will have expanded and you may notice he:

• Is suddenly very active: one moment he is taking a rest, the next moment suddenly everything about him moves;
• Hardly misses when he grasps something;
• Puts mother's hand in his mouth;
• Pulls a cloth away from his own face (first still slow);
• 'Hits' the table with a toy;
• Is busy with an "activity center";
• Searches to see where mom or dad are;
• Reacts to his mirror image;
• Responds to his name;
• Uses consonants;
• Pushes the breast away when he has enough;
• Grumbles when he is impatient.
