Henry at Two Months old

Henry is two months old, in actual fact he is ten weeks old today! These last 10 weeks have been some of my happiest, I definitely feel that our little family is now complete after his arrival. My heart feels whole. 

So what’s new this month?

Henry is awake a lot more now. He enjoys playing on his play mat and interacting with us, he is quite the chatter box at times. It’s nice to see a little more of his personality peeping through, giving us glimpses at whats to come.

He is still completely breastfed, I’m so proud that I have managed to feed him this long and we’re still going strong. He loves his milk and is such a good feeder. Last time he was weighed, at 8 weeks, he was 11lb 13oz so I would imagine he is quite a bit bigger than this now. 

At 8 weeks he also had his jabs. It’s never easy to see your little ones go through this but he was such a trooper and only cried whilst she was doing it. He did get a temperature, but I think that’s normal now with the new meningitis vaccine. 

Sleeping is becoming hit and miss. Some night’s he will do a good four hour stretch in between feeds and other times he is constantly feeding through the night. I have been very tempted to just keep him in our bed, but co-sleeping at his age does scare me a little. He will very shortly out grow his moses basket and so may be soon in his own room (as his cot will not fit in our room) or I’m thinking about a co-sleeping crib. Any thoughts would greatly be appreciated!

As always, we love you lots Henry.
