Babies change

They change so much during the first two weeks that I have taken a picture everyday for the first two weeks of C's life so that he will know what he looked like when he was born. Look below to see the difference.

I think the main difference is in his cheeks. Although still chubby, his cheeks are not as flabby. It just seems like he took a trip to the plastic surgeon and gotten himself a botox.

C has been having problems falling asleep these couple of days due to wind problems. Ya, mom says that some babies burp really fast and some take longer. C happens to be the baby that takes longer. Sometimes up to half hour and it certainly disturbs his sleep. Babie are not able to pass out gas or burp as easily as adults due to their immature digestive systems so we have to help them burp after feeding by patting their backs or else they would feel very very uncomfortable. Imagine trying to sleep after drinking 10 glasses of rootbeer.

So, he has been keeping us up most nights unlike those days when he would fall asleep right after feeding. Even when he eventually goes to sleep, he might wake half hour later needing another burp.

Anyways, because of this, he has turned into a light sleeper, always fidgeting at night. So, he will start out like this:

And end up like this:
