Baby Update – 1 Month Old

January 8, 2013 By Emily 31 Comments

I can not believe that one full month has already gone by since I had Baby D.  He is such a love and joy to our family.  Blogging has taken a back seat as we settle into life as a family four, and I am learning to be a mom to two loving boys!  I’m not sure how it could get any better or any more exhausting than it is right now, but I am sure both are possible!  I already can’t imagine our family without Baby D.  He is already smiling in response to people and is incredibly strong for his age!

At One Month Old Baby D is:

  • Is more and more alert.
  • Has the silliest facial expressions!
  • Smiling in response to people, and has the sweetest smile!
  • Holding is head up on his own for some period of time.
  • Is starting to coo in response to people talking to him.

  • Wearing most 0-3 month clothing although he is close to growing out of them!
  • Has started to chunk out, and even has rubber-band wrists!
    (Rolls along his wrists that make it appear he is wearing rubber-bands!)
  • Baby D has met both sets of Grandparents, and is looking forward to meeting Uncle Dave & Aunt Mindy soon!
  • Weighs approximately 12lbs.
    (No official weigh in this month due to our pediatrician telling us Baby D was doing so well at his two week check in, unless there was an issue he wouldn’t need to see him until his 2 month day!)
  • Loves being held and snuggled.

  • Still has his days and nights mixed up.
  • Loves sleeping on his belly when mommy lets him!
  • Loves his big brother! He always looks around for him as soon as he hears his voice.
  • Is pretty mellow, unless he is wet, hungry, or needs a diaper crying isn’t common.  Although he does fuss when he wants to be held, which people are very quick to oblige, especially mommy!

I can’t wait to see what the next month has in store for Baby D.  He is such a blessing to our family, and life as a family of 4 while extremely chaotic is something I am thankful for every single day.

      Thank you Courtney! It took 13 months for my first son to sleep over 6 hours at one time… I am not very hopeful! 😉

    I cannot believe he is already 1 month old. I think he is looking more and more like your Hubs. 🙂
