Little Quincy has been doing some major growing, putting on nearly 2kg in the first month of his life. He now weighs 5.6kg and is 60cm long. He is proving to be our most high maintenance baby – he hasn’t slept in his own bed overnight and does most of his sleeping in my arms or being rocked in his bassinette during the day. As Keryn is still on parental leave, I have the time to just sit around and enjoy bubs and can pander to his demands, well who wouldn’t, he is just so precious! He doesn’t like his car seat, screams when he’s in the car until he falls asleep, but does like the buggy.
Quincy feeds 2 to 3 hourly overnight, some nights even hourly – no wonder he’s put on so much weight. We have another active Martin boy in the house, Quincy rolled for the first time at 4 weeks old! He’s way ahead of his big brothers who both rolled at 8 weeks. I put Quincy on his tummy and he lifted his head up so high that he just toppled over and rolled to his back. I put him back on his tummy and he did it another 2 times, he did it the next day too, so not quite an accident. Very impressive, unheard of it seems as my midwife didn’t seem to believe me that he’d rolled so early (hee hee). We get plenty of smiles and he loves his bath. Bronson is very interested in Quincy and always tells him ‘I love you so much Sincy’ (oh sooo cute!). Magnus occassionally gives Quincy lots of attention, getting toys and books and singing songs to him, his favourite is Down by the Station (Magnus is still train mad!)
