We noticed that whenever we were driving and we stopped (like at a traffic light) she would start to cry. As long as the car was moving she is quite content to be in the seat. She also seems to be able to sleep for longer in her car seat. I guess the cocooning effect is there (same goes for when we carry her around in the Baby Bjorn carrier). Overall she sleeps best when she's carried (but I guess that's probably true for most babies).
E for Eating
Still no major issues.She still seems to dislike the bottle. Have tried to move to the number 3 teat. Most nights she only drinks about 60-80 ml of milk from the bottle. She used to take up to 120ml. I'm guessing she's resisting the bottle but it could also be that she's not that hungry since she sleeps quite a while till her next feed.
Still doing about 6 feeds a day.
A for Activity
Still need to work on this.
S for Sleep
Nothing new to report.
Y for You
We've been pretty busy with our guests so that's been all I've had time for.
Pooping
Misha does not poop everyday! Initially I was very concerned about this but it seems its considered normal for breastfed babies to poop as little as once a week! So far she has gone up to a week without pooping. Although its nice to not have to clean dirty diapers daily...when she does poop its A LOT so its quite a mess to clean. Initially it was once a week but now its getting a bit more frequent..every five days or so.
Milestones
Misha is quite a smiley baby. Every time I go to pick her up she'll have this huge grin on her face. And she even tries to 'talk'.
Recently I notice she's always making this sucking motion with her mouth. Especially when she wants to sleep. So I've tried to give her the pacifier but she doesn't really seem to like it. She tries to suck her hand/fingers but that also doesn't seem to stick. I'm still not giving up on the paci but I don't remember it being so hard with Meera.
