First days: What was your baby’s temperament in the first days? Did you have a sleeper or was your baby wide awake?
1. Riley is a fairly easy baby, he is a good eater, sleeps in 3 hour stretches and for the most part is awake and happy during the day. He loves to be held but also is good in the bouncer. I would consider myself a lucky mommy.
2. For the first 4 months Owen slept every 90 minutes for 90 minutes AROUND the CLOCK! It was insane. He then slept through the night for two months and then was up 2 or 3 times a night until he was 15 months old. Aw man, I am not looking forward to that again! I'm going to go take a nap!
3. Baby was pretty mellow the first few days. He pretty much slept and ate. Because he was early - he didn't have much fat on him which meant he didn't sleep for long periods of time. He woke up every 2 hours or so to feed. This got to be very tiring after a week! But I would say he's a baby that's easy to read. He's not very fussy so when he cries I know he needs something (eat, diaper, sleep or wants to play).
4. Caleb had a regular sleep/wake pattern day and night. The hardest part was him always needing to be held. He wouldn't sleep alone at all, even if we were right next to him. He needed to be on us.
5. She's a mellow baby and super alert and social from the day she was born. She cluster fed the second night which I knew may happen but was still exhausting but then after eating for like 5 hrs straight she slept for 4 hours straight. She's been a great sleeper since.
6. Ryan was alert from the start, Aaron was more chill. Both slept a fair amount the first night and were awake for most of the second.
