Abbie: 22 Weeks

I completely fell off the Challenge…but I’m okay with that.  I think I’ll just file away some of the topics for later!  I didn’t get a chance to take pictures for this post yet, so I’ll update it once I do!

Weight: I did the old step on the scale alone, step on the scale with the baby trick – she’d definitely over 14 ½ pounds and getting close to 15!

Health: All good!

Sleep: This was a rough week.  She got up at least once every night and sometimes needed to be rocked for almost an hour to get back to sleep.  I’m a tired mommy.

Social: Lots more giggles.

Diet: Both breastmilk and formula. 1 bottle of breast milk and 3 of formula at the sitter.  Solids at dinner every night.  I’ll be writing more about this shortly, but I’ve cut my pumping sessions from 3 a day at work to 2, so she’ll be getting more formula.

Clothes: 3-6 months and 6 months, although a few are getting snug.

Baby Gear Love: Sophie, Freddie the Firefly.

Crying: When she’s tired.

Likes: Daddy jumping on the bed with her (he lays her down and then bounces next to her)….I somehow think I’m going to lose the “don’t jump on the bed” battle!

Nicknames: Abbie, Abs, Abbiecakes, Stinker, Bug, Buggie

Postpartum: Weight loss is progressing.  Still need to find some more time to work out, but the pool’s opening, so that should help.  I can’t wait to take Abbie!

Milestones: Still working on sitting.  Also, Daddy put her to sleep for the night twice this week!

  1. So I misread the “baby gear” as “nicknames” and was extremely confused as to why you were calling your daughter Freddie the Firely. Dur.
