At her 4 month check up she was 13.1 lbs and 25 in. (I think). She is in the 25% for weight and 75% for height. She can roll both ways and has recently been reaching for everything in sight. She is showing a lot of signs of teething, but no actual teeth in sight. Her sleep has been pretty good...once we get her down...but, sometimes it takes a LONG time to get her to sleep :(. We are hoping to transition her to the crib in her room after the holidays...I am not looking forward to that!!! I know it will be at least a few weeks of not great sleep-which is hard when she'll sleep ten hours straight now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4ish-month-update#post-460574 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:40:54 +0000 winniebee 460574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 7 months. He's still a peanut and is 14 lb 3 oz as of yesterday (26 inches) but has grown 9 lbs since birth, so that's pretty good!</p> <p>He's been "teething" since 4 months but no teeth to show for it yet!</p> <p>Trying to crawl - is scooting and spinning in circles. Sits well, doesn't fall, loves to sit and play with toys. Loves to sing, trying to clap and loves the itsy bitsy spider.</p> <p>Mood: happiest baby I know! </p> <p>Solids: Still loves solids and now is trying to feed himself. </p> <p>Sleep: Bed at 7, goes down like a dream (in his own crib) sometimes sleeps through til 5....often wakes once to eat still. Meh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4ish-month-update#post-460527 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 15:14:03 +0000 marley 460527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO had her 4 month check up on Monday. She's on the skinny side, only 11 lb 14 oz., but longish, at 24.25 inches. She's super active and her pedi said she's burning a lot of calories. She also rolled back to front. She first rolled from front to back when she was 2 months old, but stopped doing it for some reason. </p> <p>She's teething also. Her gums are a bit swollen and her pedi said the teeth will come out any day now. She's been sleeping through the night since week 6 but started waking up once the past few days, probably because of teething. Or maybe it's the 4 month sleep regression? I don't know.</p> <p>She started sitting unassisted, for about 25 seconds at a time this week!</p> <p>Mood: she smiles constantly and plays by herself on the activity mat nicely. It entertains her for a good 30 minutes.</p> <p>Solids: Her pedi said we can start feeding her solids once she starts showing some interest when we're eating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/4ish-month-update#post-460501 Fri, 21 Dec 2012 14:59:15 +0000 lovehoneybee 460501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had our 4-month appointment this morning (even though he's closer to 4.5 months). </p> <p>Evan is now 17lb 3oz (75th percentile) and 26.9" long (94th percentile) with a head circumference of 16.5" (47th percentile). </p> <p>Big milestone this month was rolling from back to front (even though he still hasn't gone front to back). He's laughing and smiling a lot more and has started grasping his toys and bringing them to his mouth. His favorite toy ever is the Take Along Tunes music box. He has no interest in any other toy, but that one has been a god-send. </p> <p>He's also cutting his two bottom teeth...we can see and feel them now. His pedi said the worst of the pain for him has probably passed--which is thrilling if true because with the exception of a few up every hour nights last week he's handled it very very well. </p> <p>His night sleep has been great the past several nights...goes down easily and only wakes up once to nurse. Putting him to bed in his own crib in the nursery is on the agenda, but we'll wait until after the holidays/maybe until 6 months.</p> <p>He handled his shots today really well. He definitely cried but calmed within a minute or two. </p> <p>How's your LO doing? </p>
