Jade is one month old today! She is so cute but she fusses a lot. I think it's because she has lots of gas, either that or she has colic. She is growing really well and starting to fill out, especially in the cheeks. Occasionally she will smile on her own and not just because she has gas. She tracks people that she recognizes with her eyes and can turn her head from side to side when on her tummy. Her head is still to big for her to hold up on her own but she is working on it.
We have been following the Babywise plan so that hopefully one day soon she will be sleeping through the night. Babywise is an infant management concept that uses parent directed feeding to help create structure and bring security in a baby's life. It teaches parents how to guide their baby's day rather than be guided or enslaved to the infant's needs. By putting the baby on an eat, play and sleep schedule it helps babies learn to sleep through the night by week 9-12. We have yet to get to that point but by putting Jade on a schedule it has helped both me and her to understand each other better.
I really love our little Jadester. I can't believe she is growing so fast and that the time is flying by so quickly. Pretty soon we will be sending her off to college. JK.
