15 Weeks

And yes we missed a couple weeks- everyone has been sick multiple times!! We were living at the pediatricians office but everyone seems to be on the mend.
15 Weeks

Weight: 13.6 + She is in the 75th percentile for weight now :) And 50th for height!

Sleep: She was going to sleep at 7 waking at 2:30 and 5/6 which was awesome but then the weekend hit and she's been up a lot more. AH! I won't transition her to the crib at night until she is sleeping 8-5. We are working on naps in the crib now that we have all recovered from the million colds/virus we had!

Diet: 100% breast milk, about 8 times a day still. This week I didn't pump as much as she ate which was really discouraging. So with around the clock pumping and working I managed to only loose 4 ounces. I calculated how much of a stash I have in the freezer and if I had to use 1 bottle from the freezer everyday I work I could make it to 7 months…but that means not using any on the weekends. I'm really hoping this was a one week thing and I won't have to worry about it. I really want to make it a year exclusively breastfeeding if possible but it was really awful pumping a million times (which takes away from either documentation time or lunch at work), trying to work, pumping at home while getting two kids ready for bed, washing bottles, packing lunches, etc. I had that moment of is it really worth it? And then the I really don't want to supplement because what if my supply really drops and I can't breastfed her on the days I'm home?! Such a mix of emotions. BUT I can proudly say we have made it 15 weeks :)

Clothes: 3 months are too tight and way too short so mixing in the 6 month clothes.

Visitors:  Uncle Dustin, Aunt Laura and cousins Lexie and Luke for Christmas

Out and About: We did our first outing with big brother too. And while it took way longer everyone survived with just some coffee spilt all over me. I don't think the two of you even realized the other was along for the ride. 

Baby Gear Love:  

We LOVE our woombies, Aden and Anasis sleep sacks, City Select stroller, and Ergo carrier everyday love love can't live without them.

I also really love these wubbanub pacifiers with the stuffed animal attached! Now that Brooklyn's older it stays in better with the stuffed animal, plus it's cute and way easier to find. 

Crying:  Really only getting her to sleep. It's like she has to throw the big one and then passes out. She has cried the most awful cries when Jackson accidentally hit her on the head. She seriously only whimpers to eat at night, it's really amazing I wake up to that.

Milestones:  
ROLLING over! In slow motion but she's doing it! A lot more babbling now :) She will grab and hold things but mainly hair… She loves to stand (being held). And she kicks her feet in the swing or bouncy seat as fast as she possibly can. I see a cross country runner in our future! She also loves kicking in the bath! Another water baby I'm sure.

Medical: The hemangioma seems to be fading! So we have a two month break from cardiology but continuing the medication.

Postpartum: 4 pounds which at this point with Jackson I had 5 pounds left so it confirms my thoughts that breastfeeding really doesn't help weight loss. Liars.
