Growing // Around 11 months you weighed 16 lbs 4 oz (1st percentile)! You had multiple appointments this month, and this was the first month your weight made it's mark on the charts, putting you in the 1st percentile! That felt like a huge accomplishment.
Eating + Sleeping // You are eating between 6-8 oz at each feed and you are eating a combination of breastmilk and formula about 5/6 times a day. You are eating so well these days, and I love snuggling up with you in the rocking chair. And you are eating all sorts of solid foods, preferring actual food, so more baby led weaning than I've ever done with any of my other kids. You're not really feeding yourself and picking things up from your tray, but you open your mouth like a little birdie when food gets close and if the food item is big enough you're holding it in your hand. You love eggs and bread and broccoli and potatoes. You really love anything we give you! You love cereal and crackers!
You are such a good sleeper. And we are letting you sleep through the night now. I was waking you up to feed before I went to bed to get some extra ounces in you and some days you'd take it willingly and other days you wouldn't, so I'd just put you back in your bed. But we stopped giving you your reflux meds this month and you threw up three nights in a row when I'd wake you up around 10/11 pm to eat, and all of this required an entire outfit change and bedding change, so we decided that maybe it was time to just let you sleep!
You're doing just two naps a day, sometimes three, but more likely just two for a total of 2-3 hours, with an early bedtime at like 6:30 and you're waking up around 6:30. And you're napping in your rock n play and then on your wedge at night.
And in the morning when I grab you from your bed, you're the happiest guy, you just smile at me and babble and it's the most beautiful thing.
Wearing // You are wearing a combination of 6 and 9 month pants and onesies, most of your pajamas are 9 months and I've been putting you in some 12 month pajamas. I've started to move your 6 month clothes out of your container and moving your 9 month things in. Size 2/3 diapers and your cloth diapers.
Loving // You really love to eat and you love just observing everything!
Loathing // Same thing as every month - your brothers are really rough with you and take your toys from you! I'll put you down somewhere and I'll come back into the room and they've moved you.
Nicknames // Connie, Connie bears
Doing // You are waving! And you are still sitting up in your bumbo and other items. You aren't a huge fan of staying on your tummy these days! So I have to give you things to engage you so that you'll stay in position rather than just rolling over straight away.
Doctors Appointments // 1 visit to pulmonology and nutrition at Childrens, 1 WIC appointment, 1 occupational therapy appointment, 1 visit to North Seattle Pediatrics for RSV shot, 1 visit to Northwest Eye Surgeons, 1 visit to infant development clinic at UW.
