Everyone makes a big deal out of “The First 100 Days” of a President’s term. Well, Isabel runs our house, kind of like the President runs the country, so this is equally important. RIGHT?!?
A few days after we returned from the hospital, we downloaded an app that allowed us to track Isabel’s essential functions – eating, sleeping, and pooping. We all know a baby’s early existence is consumed by these activities, so we consumed ourselves with them too.
A few things to note as not all baby’s are the same, so while this probably isn’t the average for all babies, I imagine it is probably pretty close:
- Isabel turned out to be a great night sleeper and she was sleeping through the night (ie. ~ 7pm – 4am) by about 5 weeks. Her napping was much less predictable (until recently).
- Isabel breastfed exclusively until Mrs. FWL returned to work two weeks ago. Few bottles were used in relation to the number of feedings.
- As new parents, we probably changed her diaper more than necessary, but oh well, she had a clean butt.
Behold the first 100 days (more or less) of Isabel’s life as told through her eating, sleeping, and pooping.
