Dana is Four Months Old

Our little girl is four months old. She is doing well and growing. Her stats for this month:

Weight - 12 lbs, 11 oz (30th percentile)
Length - 24.5 inches (55th percentile)
Head circumference - 16.25 inches (80th percentile)

So, our girl has a big head. I am okay with that. It means she has a big brain, so she is going to be smart :) Dana got 5 more vaccines at this appointment and did very well with them. She also had to have some blood drawn. I knew what to expect this time, so I didn't freak out when she came home and passed out. After a few hours of sleeping, she was back to her happy self.

The doctor told me that Dana should be sleeping 10 hours or so at night. She pretty much gets up at the same time every morning, around 3 AM, eats, then goes back to sleep. He said to stop feeding her at that time and within a few days, she'll stop waking up. So we gave it a shot over the week and she hasn't woken up at 3 AM anymore. Yeah for sleep! She has been getting up earlier, which is hard when you don't want to get up at 5 AM to feed her, but she seems to be happier this way. Now we need to get her on a good nap schedule.
