Carson - 1 Month Old!

I cannot believe our baby girl is already one month old, as of August 16th (I am sure no one is shocked that I am a little behind!)!  We are so blessed to have her in our family!  Her big brother absolutely adores her and doesn't seem bothered by her crying at all.  He even sings to her to try and cheer her up.  He also gives her lots of kisses.  I can't wait to see their relationship grow as Carson gets bigger. She already looks his way when he talks and seems to be very interested in him.

1 Month Stats:
Weight: 9 lbs. 1 oz. (50th percentile)
Height: 22 1/4 inches (90th percentile)
Head: 14 3/8 inches (50th percentile)

At 1 Month:

  • Miss Carson is sleeping so well!  Just the other night she slept from 12:30 to 7:30.  I was shocked and super pumped.  Her brother slept through the night around this time as well.  Every night kind of varies, but she has been a rockstar and I appreciate it.  She just might have her days and nights mixed up a little bit though, she tends to sleep all day and wants to hang out in the evenings.
  • The little bean loves to eat, as you can see by her over 2 pound weight gain from birth.  I think we may have a chunky monkey on our hands!  
  • Carson is a little, okay a lot, gassy at times.  And it usually occurs around 11 o'clock at night, which sometimes means we are up until 2 or so.  When she does get her gas out, she sleeps like a champ and goes to sleep right after her feeding.  Hopefully we won't be calling the ambulance for her as a toddler like we did with Reed because of gas.
  • She absolutely hates to sit in a wet diaper.  Talk about dramatic.  Reed literally could have stayed in a wet diaper all day, it must be the difference between a boy and girl.
  • Girlfriend only cries when she is hungry, gassy or sleepy and it usually ends soon after we give her what she wants.
  • She wears size 1 diapers and will probably be out of those before we know it because she is so long.
  • She is wearing size 0-3 months and 3 months clothing depending on the brand.
  • She refuses to take a paci, gagging if we put it in her mouth.  Oh, how I wish she would change her mind on this subject, if only for a few months.
