My Boy is 7 Months Old

Another month had flown and my boy is now 7 months old.

He is such a happy baby and smiles from the minute he wakes up until he goes to sleep.

On his last weigh-in the little chunk was a few ounces under 20lb so I am convinced he is 20lb now.

Despite weaning going well-he now eats three meals a day with a desert after tea and his four bottles (sometimes five), he has stopped sleeping through and has a nightfeed again anywhere between 2 and 4am. This makes for a very tired mummy because, especially after the 4am feed, it seems silly going back to bed as the rest of the family will soon be awake.

I think the nightfeeds are very much due to our very exciting news this month- we have our first tooth.

The poor boy, he has suffered with it and even had some kind of respiratory problems which I am sure were connected.

 

He is nearly sitting up unaided. He tends to bend forward rather than fall back and his rolling over is now immense. He sits in the regular supermarket trolley seat now rather than the baby one.

He is getting christened this weekend so expect loads of cute photos on social media.

  1. Aw he is so cheeky! Mine is just over 8 months now, so all of this seems very familiar. I haven’t done the supermarket seat yet for some reason – not even sure why! You must be knackered waking up at 4am, hopefully he will get back into later wakeups again soon – ours have been at 6 for a couple of weeks now, so hopefully there’s no more going back! #MaternityMondays x

  2. Gorgeous little boy. Happy 7 month birthday 🙂
    Hope he goes back to sleeping through the night again soon.

  3. I love the trolley picture! So cute. My daughter would feed more when teething, I think it’s a comfort thing. Fingers crossed he’ll let you get a little more sleep soon!

  4. I can’t believe how fast time is going, Little 3 is only a few weeks behind.I hope his teeth don’t bother him too much and he is sleeping through again soon. Loved the sailor christening outfit!! #maternitymondays
