Re: ~*~*~*~May 2013 PAL Check in~*~*~*~

  • Any updates, appointments coming up, or milestones that you'd like to share for you or your LO(s)? D just had her 4 month appointment on the 27th, she got her shots and she was fussy the WHOLE time. She weighed 12lbs 8oz and is now 24 inches! I had to go in this past Friday because I got Strep and we weighed her again and she was 13lbs 2oz. My little baby is getting so big! 

    Who's rolling?  Back to front?  Front to back? She will roll onto her side and last night she was kind of on her belly. Just her lower half though and DH said is does not count.

    Anyone sitting? YES! D loves sitting!! I let her sit on the couch with me with her boppy around her to protect her and she loves sitting with her Daddy to watch TV.

    Has your LO(s) started solids?  If so, what was the first food they got? Last week we tried avocados and this week we tried oatmeal cereal. I am just giving her a teeny bit to see how she does. She is clearly not ready yet. Her Pedi suggested we start but she is not ready and I am not going to force it on her.

    Any updates, appointments coming up, or milestones that you'd like to share for you or your LO(s)? Madison had her 4 month on September 20th. We talked about rice cereal and she got her shots. She will have her 6 month on the 22nd of November. She has been sitting up on her own for a little bit and has been attempting to crawl.
    Who's rolling? Back to front? Front to back? She's rolling both ways like crazy.
    Anyone sitting? She does for a little bit.
    Has your LO(s) started solids? If so, what was the first food they got?
    Rice cereal for right now.

  • M is nearly 5 months now!  She was 13lb5oz at her 4 month check up, and is nearly 14.5 lb according to our scale at home now.

    She rolled for the first time the day after she turned 4 months, but didn't start doing it consistently until towards the end of September.  She finally rolled front to back but over the other shoulder without encouragement last night [:)].  She's been trying to roll back to front, but I think we're a little ways off of that just yet.

    We aren't going to be start M on any solids until after she's six months.  She just started noticing when I'm eating.  She's not sitting on her own just yet (at least not for more than a couple of seconds) but will sit with boppy assistance.  I did let her put her mouth over a piece of apple just for fun last night.  We're planning on giving her squash as a first meal on Thanksgiving

  • DD is 4.5 months. She got her shots this past weekend, but they didn't have the combo so she gets two more in two weeks. :( She weighed 14.5lbs and was 25.3 inches. Getting so big.

    She rolled belly to back for a week almost a month ago and then stopped. Don't know what's up with that. She's trying really hard to go back to belly. She tries to sit up by herself, which is hysterical to watch. Doesn't quite have the balance for sitting by herself for more than 5-10 seconds.

    No solids yet. Dr said she can start when we're ready. I don't think she's ready so we'll hold off a bit longer. I plan for her first food to be avocado...yum.
    3 ectopic pregnancies (EDD's 1/30/12-tube removed, 6/2/12-methotrexate and 10/2/12-methotrexate)
    IVF and Natural FET resulted in BFN's and a hole in our wallets
    Natural BFP #4 on 9/7/12 gave us our miracle on 5/18/13

  • Any updates, appointments coming up, or milestones that you'd like to share for you or your LO(s)? DS had his 4 month check up on 9/09. He was 14 lbs, 1 oz & 24 in long. He goes back on 11/11 for his 6 mo check up. He will be 5 months old on Wednesday! Sadly, LO is experiencing his 1st cold :(( He woke up Saturday morning congested, with a cough and slight fever. He's starting to feel better but I couldn't bear to send him to DC today so it's a baby & mommy day. Who's rolling? Back to front? Front to back? DS rolls both back to belly & belly to back. He's quick!! Anyone sitting? He sits with support but thinks its funny to lean forward & tip over while sitting. Silly boy!!! Has your LO(s) started solids? If so, what was the first food they got? Nope. Our Pedi said we can start when we're ready but I think we'll wait until LO is 6 months.

    BFP #2: 08/23/12; EDD: 05/04/13 ~Please stick little one!!! DS born 05/09/13 at 40w5d

    BFP #1: 05/05/12; EDD: 01/01/13; m/c: 05/21/12 ~Forever in our hearts~

    Anniversary
  • Glad to see everyone's LOs are doing well!

    1.) Any updates, appointments coming up, or milestones that you'd like to share for you or your LO(s)?

    C's 4-month appointment was Sept 10th, where he weighed just shy of 19 pounds and was 27.5 inches long. Whew!

    2.) Who's rolling? Back to front? Front to back?

    C is only rolling back to front right now. He hasn't figured out how to tuck his arm to go in the other direction.

    3.) Anyone sitting?

    Nope! He has pretty good core strength, but when I prop him up, he folds in half and gleefully stuffs his foot in his mouth.

    4.) Has your LO(s) started solids? If so, what was the first food they got?

    We tried puréed carrots for the first time last night! He didn't appear to like them all that much, but he ate what we gave him.

  • Hi ladies! So glad to see you around! ;) 

    Baby E is doing great and 4.5 months now! We had a rough 10 days a couple of weeks ago as he had Bronchiolitis but he has made a full recovery. He is such a happy baby. He is babbling, laughing, and such a pleasure!! He rolls back to front and front to back. He loves to bounce! He is a chunky little guy, weighing 18 lb 3 oz!! Baby E continues to be EBF and we don't plan on starting solids until after 6 months.
