3 months old today! Big brother turned 2 a few weeks ago. Not sure his weight, but I'd guess around 13 lbs. He can still wear 3 month clothes in the brands that run big and has moved on to 6m in the smaller brands. Size 1 diapers for day and size 2 for at night. I'm a SAH but I have a babysitter and teach Pure Barre and tutor about 10 hours a week. Days are awesome right now with teaching/taking barre, taking the boys to play places and parks, and playing in the backyard with the new swingset we got for DS1's bday. Life is about to change though with hyperbaric and surgery coming up for DS1. Pretty good. He usually does a 4 hour stretch in the RNP and then we co-sleep the rest of the night. He can roll belly-to-back and spin around when on his back. He is grabbing toys and "talking" a ton all of the sudden. He has great head/neck control. When he can go in the exersaucer! What age is ok for the exersaucer? I'm so excited for ours too! I think it’s more about their strength rather than their age. They need total head/neck control and to be close to sitting I believe.

Yes pinkcat I’ve been putting her in a little because she can “stand” there for a few minutes at a time and is totally infatuated with this new point of view! We got an extra one for outdoors in this last week so she’s been trying it out ☺️

How old is baby? 6.5m - 3.5 adjusted Siblings? M Is almost 3.5 How big is baby? 14 lbs 2.1oz, he’s up to 2%, woot! (had an appt today, poor little guy has a cough) He is wearing 6 mo clothing, which are wide but fit in length. We also moved up to size 3 diaper. How are your day? Working? On leave? SAH? I SAH. Most days are good and some days are shit. Lol it’s a give and take. I try to get out every day, it keeps me sane. Thankfully both kids love the stroller and I live in a very walkable town with parks everywhere. With the hills and pushing my big body stroller I even get a work out. How are your nights? Evenings are the worst he fights sleep sooo bad and I end up giving up and bringing him down stairs so I can eat. Nights, Eh he’s sooo unpredictable, some nights he only wakes up once, some nights every 2 hours. In the end he’s WAY better than my first. New skills or milestones? He almost refuses to be on his tummy since he learned how to roll. It’s funny bc he gives me this cute little smirk after he rolls of how proud he is of himself. He is also sooo smiley, talks and makes bubbles nonstop. I don’t remember DS1 being this happy. Ohh he also giggles which is the cutest thing Ever! He has also discovered his hands, he thinks they are the coolest things ever. Name One thing you are looking forward to. Sleep training (selfish I know) I also can’t wait for him to be big enough to play with big bro. He (big bro) loves him sooo much it melts my heart!

I put DS in ours now but with a thick pillow underneath so he is still “sitting” and not putting weight on his legs or pressure on his crotch/hips area.

How old is baby? Siblings? Baby is 11 1/2 weeks old. DS1 is 5 1/2 (he'll be 6 on Labor Day) How big is baby? Clothing/diaper size? Last weight at pediatricians was 9 lbs 6 oz and 21 1/2 inches. I'd say he's gained at least a pound since then and has grown in length as we have to keep adjusting his car seat straps. How are your day? Working? On leave? SAH? I'm on leave until 5/16. I'm struggling with going back because I have no idea how I'll balance everything. DS1 is also struggling since I've been on leave I've been able to take him to special things after school or take him to school on special days which I can't do when I go back to work. How are your nights? Nights are ok. We're transitioning to sleeping in the mini crib instead of bouncy. He's up either 1 or 2 times a night. I need to work on getting to bed earlier so I don't feel like a zombie when I go back to work. New skills or milestones? So close to rolling from back to belly, he smiles a lot and coos a lot. Name One thing you are looking forward to. Watching his relationship with DS1 grow as he becomes more alert and mobile. They currently adore each other and I hope it stays that way.

Oh an exersaucer for outside is a good idea! I just felt like I was running out of hands and places to actually be able to set her while we are hanging out back there! She loves the swing too, but I like having another option while she’s still immobile.

How old is baby? P is 11.5 weeks Siblings? Her mom, I mean, big sis, is 4.5 years old. Anyone else’s bigs act like the mom/dad of baby? It’s funny...sometimes. How big is baby? At her 2 month appt, she was 12 lb 12 oz and 23 in long. Clothing/diaper size? She’s in 6 mo, some 6-9 mo depending on brand. And she’s in size 2 diapers How are your days? Working? On leave? SAH? Days are good. We’re on a schedule now which is so nice. I can’t not be on a schedule. This is my last week WFH part time. P will start daycare on Monday. How are your nights? Good! She goes to sleep anywhere between 6-730pm and will sleep 12 hours. New skills or milestones? She is all smiles and I love it. She started putting her hands in her mouth yesterday and she loves trying to sit up when I pull on her hands. She’s also reaching for toys and rolling on her side. Name One thing you are looking forward to. When she’s potty trained 🤣 I’m looking forward to her becoming more mobile and interacting with DD1 more!

K is 4 months old and DS1 will be 3 in July Yesterday he was 17lb 3oz and 25.25 inches long He's in 6-9 month clothes except for some 3-6/6mo pants. Size 3 diapers I work part time, primarily from home. It's finals week so my schedule is a bit crazy. Usually the boys only have daycare half days Usually, he sleeps from about 10-5 and then snoozes a bit until daycare. DH is a rockstar and handles most MOTN because I have epilepsy and a trigger of mine is sleep deprivation so he lets me sleep unless it's a long wake up or rough night He recently found his voice...so much screeching! It's adorable though. And he eats his fingers CONSTANTLY. No rolling over here yet. Looking forward to him being able to sit up and become more interactive with DS1.
