That means Rio is 28 months and in a few months time he will be 2 1/2. I'm aware that it seems like I'm updating more about Niall now that he is here, and I feel bad, but in reality it is because Rio is actually like a child not a toddler in terms of development now. He has full speech etc. So the only thing he really need to do is be potty trained but he isn't quite ready and I'm not going to push it because he knows when he wants a wee/poo and will tell us and will help to change his own pull up after. But at the moment he doesn't want to try on his underpants or sit on the toilet. So at the moment we are leaving it in his hands but giving encouragement and praise.
I've cut down on the breast feeding (see last post) and now only feed him once or twice a day on the boob (delaying the inevitable). He's on 5oz formula every 2 hours. And really is a happy content little baby. Everyone said that we wouldn't get two the same but we really have been blessed.
His tiny baby outfits are now on the small side so he is now wearing his newborn ones. However his newborn sleepsuits are getting abit snug length wise but upto 1 month doesn't quite fit yet.
Niall's head control has always been good but hit a whole new level this week!
My Little Boy Jaxon was 10lbs 14.5oz when he was born, we went to weigh in this morning and he's 11lbs 1oz now having lost slightly more than his 10% following his birth. Between 40 weeks and me being 1 week postpartum I worked out that I lost 1 stone 6lbs by delivering Jaxon and all the extra stuff. Bear in mind you just incubated a baby for 9 months - don't be too tough on yourself. My bleeding has almost finished but I'm still sore from the C-Section so still taking it fairly easy.
ReplyDeleteJaxon just about fits in the upto a month clothes but we are near enough completely in 0-3 months now.
Wowzers!! Lovely little chunk..Niall only lost 3.7% so we was really lucky. x
