Ethan at 3 months old

We brought Ethan for his third month jab to Dr Sim on Thurs and did an assessment on his suspected tilted neck. Dr sim said as long as he's turning his head around 180 degrees when he is held upright, it should be fine, his head shape will start to balance off when he turns 4-5months as he will be keep upright at a longer period during the day instead of sleeping most of the time.

Ethan now weighs 6.1kg and 60.5cm tall, his head circumference is 40.5cm big.. he reacted to the jab with a little cry (when Caden was 3 months old, he did not have any reaction at all!) but stopped crying within seconds. Although he falls short of the 2x his birth weight gain at this stage, we thought that he's slightly bigger in size at his age.. but still his milk intake did not increase from 2 months and still maintain at 4 oz per feed.

Ethan has now started to grab his t-shirt, hanky, or whatever within his reach when he's awake, and create a sharper cry whenever he's fussing. He has successfully sleep through the night since the last update and sometimes we have to wake him up at 630am to give him the first feed of the day. Hopefully it gets easier for us as both Mummy and PaPa are tired from exhaustion to date (that explains for fewer postings..)

Look, my hair has grown and become curlier!
