He's sleeping great at night with a few rough nights every now and then. He typically goes down around 10:00 when I'm ready for bed and sleeps around 6 hours then wakes up at 6:30 then goes back down for a couple more hours. Last night I put him to bed at 9:00 but he only made it 3 1/2 hours but I'm going to try again! It's nice to have a little quiet time after both boys go to bed.
Micah is not as attached to a paci as Owen was but typically prefers it when falling asleep. He MUST be swaddled to fall asleep (unless he's in his car seat or if someone other than mom is holding him). If I catch him at the right stage of sleepiness he will light up as soon as I start wrapping him up and then want to smile and chat for a bit before going to sleep. He does pretty well falling asleep on his own but I do typically nurse him to sleep at night to make sure his tummy is full. It's not a huge deal if he wakes up after nursing and will usually just take a paci and go back to sleep. He's still sleeping in the Rock n Play in our bedroom at night and for his one big nap in the afternoon. His other naps are in the pack n play in the living room. I want him to get used to sleeping through noise and he seems to do okay. I think we're at around 4 naps right now. One long one and 3ish short ones. There have been a lot of days where I feel like I'm always putting him down for a nap which is a little exhausting even if he does go down easy.
Micah loves hanging out under his toy bar and making that little penguin swing. If he's not there he's in his bouncy chair or mama's arms
We're super close to getting a laugh out of Micah which is super exciting! Last not a got a little "ha ha" chuckle :)
