Happy 3 months! :D
This little ladybug turned 3 months old! We LOVE watching her personality continue to develop. She is such a joy and SUCH a happy baby! Savannah has started giving smiles and some laughs and just has her daddy and I wrapped around her little finger! She loves being swaddled, spending time with her daddy, chatting in her crib in the mornings when she wakes up (she just goes on and on!) and still prefers nursing over the bottle. She does not like tummy time much or getting overtired. She's already trying to sit up on her own and has become so independent! This month was tough for mommy. We started daycare and work. Our wonderful time on maternity has ended. We decided to start her the week before I went back so I could take her to daycare and get adjusted to the idea. We did 2 days the first week. The 2nd week, we also did two days, but instead of being at home, I went to work. My first week back I only worked two days to ease back into things. Those first days were the hardest. The actual first day, I cried all day. Ugly cried a few times. I used that time to go and run some errands and get prepped for going back to work. I called around lunch time to check on her and she was still refusing bottles. So I ugly cried. Outside of Ulta. I'm sure people thought I was nuts. lol. She didnt eat all day that first day. The second day she had 1 bottle. The teachers were very nice and kept telling me when she was there full time that by the end of the first full week, she wouldnt have any issues with bottles. Luckily, they were right. My heart couldnt handle it if they were not. But I'll tell you what- the stress that lead up to trying to get her to take bottles at all and then leaving her at daycare anyway was intense. We tried EVERYTHING to try to get her to take bottles before going to daycare. We started WEEKS in advance and no dice. Luckily, it didnt take long. She wasnt going to starve herself. Phew. :D She does great at daycare now and her teachers say she's such an easy-going, good baby and they love having her (helps this mama's heart for sure!), so by the end of the month things were better. I do not like pumping though! and it's a BIG adjustment for me at work. Luckily, we have a great room and a company that is flexible, so that's not an issue, just the timing of it all. I'm just glad we are still making it breastfeeding, so I'll pump :D
