2 months

Age: 2 month Height: 21 inches = 7th percentile at 8 week appointment Weight: 10lbs, 1oz. =27th percentile at 8 week appointment Head: 37.50= 40th percentile at 8 week appointment Milestones: Avy is starting to make good eye contact and smile back at you. She will imitate coo sounds when you talk to her. She likes to stick out her tongue and pucker her lips. She can roll onto one of her sides when on her back. She is holding her head up better when sitting up right. She is trying to find her thumb to suck on, but just can’t get it quite right yet! Sleep: Avy does not have a schedule for sleeping down yet. She usually, but not always, goes to bed between 10 and 11pm then wakes up once at night between 2 or 3am. The hardest part is getting her back to sleep. She sometimes stays up for an hour and a half or two hours. She will then wake up again around 6am and then go back to sleep. I am hoping that we will start seeing some sort of routine or longer sleep periods in a couple of weeks since I will be going back to work. Best Moment: I was talking to her the other night and she continued to talk back to me by making cooing sounds one after another! I love to see her smile too! Worst Moment: Lately, Avy’s fussiness has quieted down a bit. After figuring out she had anal stenosis and managing the problem she has seemed to be a little happier. She still acts like she strains sometimes, but I think that’s somewhat normal. She still continues to have some episodes of colic, but not as bad as before. Health: The doctor said she looks very healthy, she is just a small baby. Eating: Avy continues to eat pretty well. Teeth: Nope Extra comments: Avy had her 2 month shots and did very well. She fussed for a second and then seemed all better. I go back to work in two weeks and am not looking forward to that. She continues to change each and every day and brings lots of smiles to my face!
