Talking to mama:

Name: Hilary

Baby's name: Elaina

Baby's age: 11 weeks tomorrow

Size diapers: cloth! About a 2 in disposables...she is sort of between size 1 & 2 I think.

Size clothes: 0-3 for the most part. But she is too long for those sleepers now and definitely too big for the pants (she has chubby little legs!!). 3-6 sometimes but they are often baggy on her.

Breastfeeding or bottle feeding: breastfeeding

Baby's sleeping patterns: she's a good napper, she will usually do a lunchtime nap, late afternoon nap, and an evening nap. Usually 2 hours or so each. Bedtime is late, because DH works late and we are both night owls anyway. I nurse her to sleep in bed at 11:30 and she will wake around 4 or 5 (this week has been not so great, waking at 3:30-4). Usually she will go down after that for another three hour stretch. Lately she doesn't sleep well after her feeding unless I bring her into the bed though.

If you're a working mother, are you back to work? Not for a long time yet thankfully.

Any milestones with baby? Lots, I am so excited for her!! Last week she rolled from her tummy to her back three times, but she hasn't done it again since lol. She cries during tummy time. She is grabbing at toys and blankets and holding them a bit now! And my favourite, she is mimicking sounds. A-goooo is her favourite she does hiiii a little bit too which is cute!

Anything else you want to brag about? She is holding her head up so well people are shocked when I tell them she is only two months! Hehe But all this means I think she is growing up too fast....!
