I'd say the past 6 weeks she's had a number of developments. From commando crawling, to eating and feeding herself (hates being fed) to communicating and understanding what we say!
What a personality she is! Baby K is a highly sociable baby who loves people. She'll always smile and wave at anyone who catches her eye.
We finally had the Tresillian visiting last week and learnt a lot. The nurse gave us lots of tips and we tried them out of desperation - and it worked. We've been getting decent sleep since. Very much to my relief and sanity. It's a difficult feeling, when you're like a zombie and can't function 100%....But hopefully it's all in the past!
-------------------------
Growth :
Just about 7.5kgs. Small for her age, in fact she's smaller than all other babies her age. I used to worry about it but I figured as long as she is developing normally, theres nothing to worry about!
Sleep:
FINALLY sleeping through (almost) the night. She doesn't feed as much as (maximum twice). Last night she didn't need to feed at all! Hallelujah! Twitchy and I are finally feeling a little more normal and a little more alert.
Eat :
No more boobs. Baby K is now on formula and solids. She just decided to go off the boob and I think it happened I had gastro and was sick and dehydrated. Its a blessing in a way, she is now drinking a lot more (i can finally measure how much she drinks!). So that's the end of my breast feeding journey. 11 months with Baby K!
She is one picky eater. She has a simple palate and prefers to feed herself these days. From pasta with cheese, to poached chicken, salmon, rice cakes and grapes and pears. Once she likes a certain food she can not have enough of them!

Outings :
Out and about all the time - it's so easy now that Baby K is a little older. Only problem being the amount of things I have to prepare - food, milk, nappies....
Milestones :
She started crawling at 11 months. Commando crawling....
She stopped breastfeeding at 11 months...
She loves music and would stop to sing and dance if she knows a certain song or like the rhythm.
She likes playing peekaboo!
She finds mummy's star jumps hilarious
She started pointing at 10 months and couldn't stop pointing since!
She knows who mummy and daddy and popo is
She is beginning to repeat after mummy and say words (depending on mood)
She is learning very quickly. Takes only a few attempts to learn!

Physical developments:
We finally have a little more hair! Although she won't have a full head of hair by her birthday. Poor darling keeps getting referred to as a "little fella". But hey, she has more than daddy now!
She also has noticeably long curly eyelashes, much to everyone's envy....
