Jake has been a little off sorts over the last few days. He has been taking half his normal amount of milk and doing the worst, smelliest poos known to man. He just hasn’t been his usual angelic self. Also, he has also been doing a weird eye thing where he opens and closes his eyes quite slowly. We think he may have scratched his left eye as it is that one that seems to be giving him grief.
This morning he was up just after 6am. I popped him down with a pillow behind him in the hallway and he played with his clutch cube, while I shaved and washed. I then took him upstairs for his milk. The breastfeeding era has officially ended this weekend after he bit Amy three times while feeding. Ouch! After his milk I gave him an apple rice cake with some water. After that he became a little grouchy and irritable. He had simply woken too early and was still tired. I took him downstairs and popped him in his cot and he soon fell asleep clutching his taggie. What a kebob!
Jake now sits on his own quite confidently although he will still fall backwards sometimes so he needs a pillow to cushion his head. Yesterday he started leaning to one side. It seems his back and neck muscles are much stronger and it gives him a different perpective on the world.
