Three Weeks Today




Still quite a sleepy guy, but we're blessed that he's a good night sleeper. I do swaddle him at night, and he sleeps from 11 to 4 and then again to about 7:30, so I'm getting good night rest.  My BP was at 138/88 earlier this week, so I'm also pleased with this reading, happy that everything is settling down after his birth.

Nursing is going well, but I'm still a little sore from his tongue tied latch. I'm investigating clipping his frenelum (the little string under your tongue) - there's a series of tests you can do and a scoring system that can be done to assess if baby actually needs to have the frenelum clipped.  You can read about it and see the videos here.

I'm finding he looks quite like Myles - even though I can't tell him apart from Asher's baby face..

Sombra ... he's absolutely beautiful! I'm so glad that your BP is doing well and that you are able to get a decent sleep at night.

Thank you for sharing your life with us! I always enjoy reading about what's happening in your home!

Love Vicki

Miraculous! A content, healthy and handsome child...

And, your blood pressure.

It is hard to believe that baby Elias is almost 4 weeks old. How did that happen?
