Happy 4 months Harry, you are a big boy today!!!






Little guy is 4 months today, hard to believe. Time has flown by. Funny how it feels like it was just yesterday that I first heard him crying and held him in my arms for the first time, still it is as if he has always been in our lives

Harry is now 6.66 kg and 68 cm or 14 lb 7 oz and 26.5 inches. He is also this big smiley boy full of personality who loves a cuddle but also enjoys daddy's funny games of bouncing up and down on the sofa.
He is a curious little thing who during day time will rather look around than spend a whole 10 minutes feeding - that of course is tricky for mummy but we are getting used to it and feeding as much as possible when he is half asleep; the only time he will be calm enough to feed for a bit longer.

He still likes his big red balloon but not enough that it can be his baby sitter anymore. He can hold a toy on each hand and seems to tense his whole body on the attempt to grab something he dropped a bit further than his hands can reach.

Harry has also gone from sleeping 12 hours a night waking up once to feed to sleeping 10 hours and waking up whenever...yap, keeping mummy on her toes!


MILESTONES AT 4 MONTHS

• Holds head up steadily - CHECK
• Can bear weight on legs - CHECK ALTHOUGH IT ISN'T HIS FAVORITE SPORT
• Coos when you talk to him - OOOHH CHECK

• Can grasp a toy - AND MUMMY'S HAIR AND HIS CLOTHES AND ANYTHING ELSE HE CAN LAY HIS HANDS ON
• Reaches out for objects - OR TRY AND GET FRUSTRATED WHEN THEY ARE JUST TOO FAR
• Can roll over - NOT THERE YET BUT HE IS TRYING
• Imitates speech sounds - baba, dada - NOT THOSE SOUNDS, HE DOES IMITATE SOME STUFF BUT THERE'S A LOT OF JIBBER JABBER GOING ON
• May cut first tooth - NOT YET BUT THERE CERTAINLY IS ONE IN THE MAKING
