Our teeny tiny wee little preemie is a whopping 8lbs 10oz now....as you can see from his cheeks, tummy and thighs!
His days and nights are still mixed up. I believe keeping this baby awake during the day is more challenging than getting him to sleep. Tips welcome. 😴
We used Rock-a-Bye Baby music on an old iPod in the baby's room.
ReplyDeletePerfect! Thanks for the tip, Jen!
ReplyDeleteWe were told by a nurse to give a bath a night time, right before bed. They burn extra calories trying to stay warm during the bath and usually will sleep for a good long stretch after that.
ReplyDeletePerfect, thanks Sue! We'll try that. I am starting to wonder if we have a colicky baby on our hands. I sure hope not. Colick doesn't present for preemie's until they reach their full term date. We're holding out hope.
