Molly 4 Month Update




Weight and Height: At her 4 month doctors appointment she was 15lbs 8oz and 24inches long. Also she is in the 90th percentile for head circumference haha.


Eating: Breastfeeding on demand and then occasionally when she is still hungry I will give her a bottle. Then at night time I give her a 4oz bottle half of formula and half breast milk before bed. I go back anf forth with continuing to breastfed. It is becoming more difficult but sometimes it’s the only thing that will calm her down and at night time its so convenient. My goal is to at least make it till 6 months.


Sleeping: Since getting to Hawaii and Molly turning 4 months we had a little but of sleep regression where she was waking up consistently 3-4 times at night. However for about a week now she is going to bed around 7:30/8 and sleeping till 3 or 4 (sometimes 5) and will nurse and sometimes go back to sleep. For naps they are kind of all over the place but I am trying to get her to nap more in a bedroom so she doesn’t get woken up by her sister.







Clothing: 6 Month clothes and some 9 month clothes.

New this month:
Molly is more aware of her surroundings, she knows who we are and will follow up around the room with her eyes. Getting good at sitting up on her own. Likes to roll around on her sides.


Molly likes:
Putting everything in her mouth. She loves the Sophia giraffe to chew on. Hearing her own voice and loves to scream. Chewing on her fingers. Watching her sister play.


Molly Dislikes:
The car, she cries every time we put her in the car. The hours of 4-7pm, she isn’t the easiest baby in the evenings and we have to cancel plans often if we know they will go past 7:30 because girlfriend will lose it when we are out.
