The night of the move was bad for Jake. He was crying everytime he was put down in his cot so we took him downstairs for a play until about 8.30pm. By that time he was obviously tired. Again once in his cot he immediately started to cry. There was nothing for it but some controlled crying. We went in at intervals to settle him. In the end he succumbed to a soothing cheek stroke while clutching his taggie blanket. Kebob! The night after was fine though. I wonder if he still remembers the old flat?
Jakey has taken to sleeping on his front and at a variety of angles. Another favorite is to sleep on his side. Ames was kept waiting on thje phone this morning trying to sort out our BT Broadband fiasco so his nap was overdue. When Ames eventually put him to bed he immediately turned onto his side clutched his blanket and went to sleep. We are thinking that his increased movement is causing his leaks of which we have two or three a week. I have carried out a little research and this seems to be common. We shall try popping in another booster between the nappy and the wrap. alternatively we could fold the booster in the half so there is more in the front. Boys obviously wet the front more than girls.
It is nice for Jake to have lots of room to play and in the summer the garden will be a godsend. Amy is round at Emmas today because at the mo the Kitchen/Dining area is flat-pack-tastic.
Jake’s top-left tooth is almost through now. The white bump has turned into a thin line so the tooth must be cutting though. He is quite comfortable with his sippy bottles and now holds it while he drinks. He is also taking more milk. Most feeds are now 200ml whereas before it was a struggle to get him to take the 150ml.
