For the past few days, we have had an unusually fussy baby on our hands. That coupled with: a ton of drool and constantly pulling anything and everything to his mouth.....I think we are in the first stages of getting those little teeth! Yikes!
It's just a matter of time until this happy baby has teeth in this smile!
Well after seeing him break out of his blanket just to get his arms out enough times, we decided to try to swaddle him with his arms out. BINGO! It worked. He apparently has the swaddle feel around his chest, but sleeps with his arms wide out to his sides.
This makes me SOOOOOOOOOOO happy because we have progress! Now I am starting to believe that I'm not going to have to swaddle my teenager with a sheet so he can sleep. WHEW!
Other than that, everything is pretty much the same. Mr. C sleeps from about 8:30-5:30/6. Then we snuggle in bed until it's time for his first bottle at 7am. He wakes up from the night happy and smiling. In fact, he can't get enough of the smiling! When I lay him down for a nap he likes to just stare and smile at me. It takes every fiber of my being to resist just picking him up and kissing him!!!
This was him watching TV the other day. Such a little stud!
Teeth already? Oh man! Did you or Steve teethe early? Usually it runs in the family. The boys I nanny still don't have any teeth and they are nine months.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about Steve....I need to ask his parents! But I didn't get my first 2 teeth until I was over 1 year! But my brother got his first 2 when he was 3 months old then didn't get any more for awhile. It's crazy! Usually when babies teethe they can hold their own cold teething things in their mouths! Haha
