AW - newborn pics

mana8503

Here are a few pictures from Eliza's newborn shoot today!!  She was wide awake for most of them, then when the photographer left, took a 3 hour nap.  Nursed for an hour straight... and now on her second 3+ hour nap.  Pray for me tonight because I'm sure she won't be sleeping.  But how can I be mad at that face?

Great pictures! Eliza looks so cute and so alert. . How'd she sleep during the night? I found the better M slept during the day then the better sleep she had at night too.

@klm42404 - she actually slept 2 hours between feedings! So can't complain. But her feedings have all been 20-30 mins long, when they usually are 10-15. Hungry hungry hippo over here lol.

she is so precious and these pictures are so beautiful!!

 

also, people have told me this a million times and I never want to believe it but sleep begets sleep (I have no idea if I spelled that right) when Bear is going through a growth spurt he'll sleep a ton during the day and still great at night. as long as she seems to remember day/night then you should be okay.

Those pictures are simply adorable!!!! And yes, as weird as it seems, the better L naps, the better he goes to bed at night. If he doesn't nap (which happens a few times a week) he is a handful at bedtime!

That's so counter intuitive to me! If I slept too much during the day I have 0 chance of a good night sleep. Oh well! I'm glad though! She's sleeping a bunch today too.

Yeah, it's something that sounds unbelievable when you hear it. You have to try it.
