What we know so far

 
 

I thought I would keep record of what we know so far of our newest addition. Actually its not all that much but you are only 7 days old today but there is a few things we know.

1. You get the hiccups all the time. You had them a lot during pregnancy, in fact you actually got them while I was in labour (which made contractions even more painful).

2. Your excessive hiccups may be from the trait known to be 'a great sucker'. You had a great sucking reflect from the start. May be we need to tame this trait so you have less hiccups. Princess has also worked out how this can be used to stop your crying. First she stuck her finger into you mouth which made you happy but after being told by Daddy that her hands were too dirty she learnt that her nose could be used as well.

3. You love noise. Not necessarily making it yourself but it would seem the louder your sister are around you the happier and easier you seem to be able to sleep.

4.You like to be where the action is. This means that putting you to sleep in your own bed is already difficult. Hence you get put into your swing or rocker and you'll go to sleep amongst the cries and proddings from your sisters.
