One Month Update

 

So Ryan is one month old now. Taking care of a little baby is definitely easier the second time around. I actually feel like I know what I’m doing this time. So here’s how he is doing.

By the end of this month, Ryan … SHOULD be able to:

-lift head briefly when on stomach on a flat surface – yup.
-focus on a face – yup.

… will PROBABLY be able to:

-respond t a bell in some way, such as startling, crying, quieting – he startles.

… may POSSIBLY be able to:

-lift head 45 degrees when on stomach – yup.
-vocalize in ways other than crying (e.g. cooing) – not yet.
-smile in response to your smile – he smiles, usually when sleeping, but other than that he doesn’t do it otherwise.

… may even be able to:

-lift head 90 degrees when on stomach – not yet, but close.
-hold head steady when upright – he’s close, he can do it for 2-3 seconds at a time.
-bring both hands together – yup.
-smile spontaneously – I guess this relates to the smile above.
