Sonia gets more photogenic every month 🙂
At 4 months, Sonia is now right at 13 lb (25%), 24 1/4″ tall (50%) and has a head circumference of 40.5cm (50%). The pediatrician continues to be amazed at how advanced she is in both social and motor skills, and gave us the green light to start solids and sleep train if we so desired, although neither is necessary just yet.
Sonia seems to be following the wonder weeks calendar almost to the day, and we are now right in the middle of the fussy period leading up to the 4th leap at 19 weeks. That means her sleep regression is still ongoing, she’s fussier, and she seems to pick up a new “trick” every week. First there was finding her mouth, then trying to do crunches and roll, and now – feet! 🙂 It’s pretty crazy how one day she’s not doing something, and the next day, she’s doing it all the time. It’s no wonder she’s not sleeping well with all this new stuff to explore. I hope the wonder weeks calendar is right, though, in that we should get our happy, independent baby back in another 2 weeks.
We did try some avocado and sweet potato this week, but she really didn’t eat very much of it, or seem to like it. We’ll keep having her try new things, but don’t hold out much hope that it is going to solve our sleep problems. Right now we’re researching sleep training methods and considering whether we should hold out a couple more weeks before trying anything or not.
These latest pictures are fantastic. She is adorable. I hope all is well with Sonia and her parents.
