BAYLOR 5 months!

BAYLOR RYAN 5 MONTHS OLD!!!!! 

Weight - 13+ lbs?

Length - 26" +

Head Circumference - ?

Clothing Size -  6 months. Size 2 diapers. 

Sleeping - Ugh. Sleep. Same nap schedule during the day. 2 short morning naps and then an long afternoon nap. He struggles to stay up past 7-730pm and still wakes twice at night to eat because he is not eating enough during the day/ spitting it all up. He wakes up to start the day most of the time around 630. He and Ryan get up together and get ready for work then Baylor goes back to sleep for his first nap by 8. Raegan wakes up around 8-830 most mornings. 

Teeth - nadda. So much drool and chewing but no signs of teeth. 

Eating - 25 oz of expressed milk a day. No solids yet. Gets about 2-3oz of apple juice/water at dinner for constipation. 

Movement - starting to get up on all 4 and rocking back and forth. Army crawls and scoots all over the place. Rolls all over the place. 

Milestones - Tummy sleeper, getting on all 4's and rocking, grabbing and shaking toys, belly laughing

Favorite toys/activities - Playing with his sister, baby Sophie the giraffe

Dislikes - sleeping and cuddling :( 

What we love - How chill and laid back he is for the most part. How much he adores his sister. 


What we don't love - acid reflux and constipation. Oh and not sleeping through the night! 

What we're looking forward to- Starting solids, crawling, sleeping through the night every night! 


We stopped giving B his Prevacid. It only works maybe 10 days out of the month, cost $54 a month and gives him major constipation and so Ryan and I decided it just wasn't worth it. He has been off it for almost a week now and surprisingly he is doing ok. He isn't spitting up nearly as much as I thought he would be I have been watching what I eat and staying away from lots of dairy. I still will put cheese on a salad or make a recipe with cream cheese or sour cream but I'm not eating ice cream, yogurt ect. 

I finally feel like he is gaining a little weight. I had a weight check for tomorrow but I don't think we will go. We will just wait until his 6 months appt and see how much he weighs. I feel like he has already grown at least an inch in the past month. He will be too long for his infant car seat in just a couple of months.
