How old is baby now? 2 months on the 23rd

What size clothes are they wearing? 0-3 months mostly, but some things are still pretty big on her. She wore newborn size sleeper last night.

What do they weigh right now (or the most recent weigh in)? 10 pounds and about 4 oz on our scale at home a week ago.

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day? No idea. She's awake for an hour or 2 and then takes a nap and continues like that all day. Wakes up twice to nurse on a normal night, but of course not every night is normal. Some nights she's up every 2 hours

If you are using cloth, what size are you in now? Haven't pulled out the cloth yet. I only have size med. and lrg. and a few one-size dipes, but I can't keep up with laundry/housework as it is.

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example) Doesn't spend much time on her tummy,but can roll from her back to her side. She's pretty much always been able to do that though.

What's your favorite baby carrier right now? I love my kangaroo korner fleece pouch, but my back and neck hurt if I use it too much, so I've been using the Moby a lot. 2 shoulders seem easier.

How old is baby now? 7 weeks

What size clothes are they wearing? 0-3 is definitely getting small, we're pulling out the 3-6 month stuff tonight.

What do they weigh right now (or the most recent weigh in)? About a week ago he was 12.5 pounds on our bathroom scale

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day? ?? I haven't paid attention.

If you are using cloth, what size are you in now? N/A

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example) Nope, but becuase of reflux, whenever he's on his back, he arches his back and extends his neck and almost makes it from back to tummy that way. He's had lots of accidental rolls from belly to back.

What's your favorite baby carrier right now? I only use a home-made ring sling, but my husband pulled out our old Bjorn and loves it. I never loved the Bjorn, it worked, but I prefer the sling.

How old is baby now? 7 weeks

What size clothes are they wearing? 3 months (or 3-6 months)! He has been too big for the 0-3 since he was about 6 weeks old. But this is mainly due to length. . .he is tall. And I have found that the sizing differs due to brand.

What do they weigh right now (or the most recent weigh in)? Hasn't been weighed in awhille, but I'd say 11.6 to 12lbs. He was 10.4 at one month and he has definitely chubbed up since then.

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day? ?? Not quite sure. ..something like 15.

If you are using cloth, what size are you in now? N/A. Sposies we are size 1, soon to move to size 2.

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example) Nope, he doesn't seem interested at all!

What's your favorite baby carrier right now? He likes all of them (we have a ring sling, a Moby wrap and a Bjorn), but I prefer the Moby by a long shot--its the kindest on my back and let's me use my hands the best. He's just happy as long as he's with mom or dad and not put down.

[coldandsleepy]

How old is baby now?

Mostly 3-6.

15lbs 7oz this past Tuesday, naked.

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day?
No idea! He's awake more and more though.

Size S Thirsties covers, size 2 of the Duo Wraps (the size 1 definitely did not last to 18lbs for us!), and infant size prefolds.

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example)
He doesn't roll all the way in either direction yet, but he can roll back to side and side to back. He really likes to sleep on his side and has started rolling to it if I put him down on his back... but other than that, no purposeful rolling!

What's your favorite baby carrier right now?
Still the Moby, though he's getting so heavy now that I'm starting to look at woven wraps. I think I'm going to make my own. (There's really not much to it!)

[melis79]

How old is baby now?
10 weeks on Monday

What size clothes are they wearing?
NB and some 0-3

What do they weigh right now (or the most recent weigh in)?
8lbs 5oz at 9weeks 2 days

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day?
sleeps from 8pm to 11pm when I wake him to feed and then till 7am most nights. He wakes up occasionally around 5am but I just bring him to bed with me to comfort nurse (despite our best efforts for the 1st 8 weeks with BF'ing he stopped gaining weight and even lost weight, so I switched to formula, he gained 23ozs in 6 days once that happened, more than he gained his first 8 weeks of life combined! So BF'ing at this point is just for comfort and bonding for both of us... I think I just make skim milk!)
He takes about 4 45 min-2hr naps during the day. He sleeps much better since we switched to formula and his belly is now full. I think my "fussy" baby was just hungry despite round the clock BF'ing before. Oh well, just happy he is healthy and now growing!

If you are using cloth, what size are you in now?
no cloth for us this time around,

[pastrygirl]

He'll be 3 months on the 30th.

He's a chunk, wearing 6-9 month clothing already!

He was 13 pounds 4 ounces at his 2-month checkup, but had been gaining about a pound a week. I'm guessing he's over 15 pounds now.

Not sure about sleep. If I wear him during the day, he sleeps A LOT. He might have 3 or 4 hours of awake time. If I don't wear him, he barely sleeps at all during the day, so he only gets about 10 hours at night, waking up two or three times to nurse.

We use disposables, and he's in size 3 now.

He doesn't roll on purpose yet. I'm guessing it will be a while since he's so huge. It was the same with my older son -- it took him forever to be able to roll, sit up, and crawl, because he was so enormous.

I love my long wraps!! I have a Wrapsody BBS, a Didymos woven, and some Neobulle wovens. Love them all!

[Lovinmum]

How old is baby now? He will be 10 weeks tomorrow.

What size clothes are they wearing? 3-6m is getting snug

What do they weigh right now (or the most recent weigh in)? He was 14lb 2oz two days ago.

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day? Lets see... about 18?

If you are using cloth, what size are you in now? Mediums in everything but the new style Fuzzis. Those things are HUGE!

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example) Nope. My oldest was right at 3 1/2 months so I'm not expecting it soon.

What's your favorite baby carrier right now? My meitai. He is loving it too. He is too heavy for the sleepy wrap but I am getting ready to order a woven wrap soon and I need to find my RS.

[cristeen]

How old is baby now? 2 months tomorrow.

What size clothes are they wearing? 3-6m in pants, to get over the cloth dipes (and even that's a bit snug). Shirts are 0-3 still, and he can't wear anything with feet smaller than a 6 mo anymore - he's just too long

What do they weigh right now (or the most recent weigh in)? He was 10 lb 6 oz at last weighing 2 weeks ago - my scale only goes up to 11 lbs.

How many total hours are they sleeping now every day? Less and less every day. If I can get him down at a decent hour we're doing better, because he'll sleep until about 6 when daddy has to get up for work. If I'm really lucky I get a couple 2 hour naps out of him during the day, but the last few days naps have been 20 minutes if I'm lucky.

If you are using cloth, what size are you in now? The newborns still fit him, but they're not absorbent enough. So he's mostly in smalls, and 1 medium.

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example) Nope. He's learned to squirm purposefully though. I was waking up to find he'd squirmed himself into position with his nose buried in my chest.

What's your favorite baby carrier right now? Only the Moby. Can't get the hang of the RS yet - he hates tummy-to-tummy, and the cradle is uncomfortable for me, so we may just stick with wraps until he's big enough for a hip carry with the RS.

Do they roll with a purpose yet? (not counting 'falling' from belly to back, for example) He's rolled over a few times, but it's not anything that he's doing all the time.

What's your favorite baby carrier right now? The baby hawk! I love that carrier. I also wear him in Lucky Baby pouch slings. I'm looking forward to getting a wrap of some sort. I'm just glad he loves being worn. My daughter hated it.
