Yep...it's been one month since we were blessed with Baby No 2. During the first month babies seldom make enough major changes to write grandma about but we've noticed major differences between Baby No 1 and Baby No 2.
H1 was a high demand baby. She kept us on our toes from day one. She let us know that she means business and will do everything on her terms from birth. (She didn't want a natural birth...there I was having contractions, when H1 decided she had enough and decided to make things more interesting by passing meconium. So being the drama queen that she is she made sure her birth too was dramatic by making sure I had an emergency ceasarian.)
We were bracing our selves this time around for long night-time battles because H1 would wake up 2 or 3 times a night and would stay up 2 to 3 hours at a stretch. I have no idea how we survived on about 3 hours of sleep those initial months.
H2 however, has been an easy baby so far. She doesn't cry much. (H1 cried for hours at the end of which I too would be nearly in tears of frustration) and though she wakes up a few times in the night, she doesn't stay up long. Even during the day I could leave her in the cot by her self for a while. (H1 girly had to be carried ALL the time)
It's amazing how different their personalities are from the very beginning. I wonder if H2 will be a quieter baby...

ReplyDeleteI love the new headers you've got! Also I want a bit of advice... I have a brand new nephew (who's one month old this week) and I'm totally not sure what to buy for him... :S Can you direct me to a place that has you know, baby shirts or booties or stuff? What should you get a new baby and family anyway?

ReplyDeletehehe.. that's a big contrast. I thought all babies are supposed to make that ruckus, since my nephew too gave us a hard time during the first 3 months. =D But then it's not easy to tell their personality just from that ne?
