My Baby Week 13

My Baby Week 13
Your infant is becoming stronger and stronger each week! You have probably noticed that he holds his head up longer during tummy time and may even be able to hold some weight in his legs when you hold him in a supported standing position. Balancing however, is months away! He is probably laughing out loud when you play with him or bring her favorite toy to him.

Speaking of his favorite toy, by week 13, he may be batting at his toys when they come into his field of vision, or he may even be picking up that toy for himself! Not only is he picking that toy up, he is probably inspecting it thoroughly, with his eyes and his mouth!

Sweet Relief!
He may finally be sleeping through the night, or at the very least, longer portions of the night! If not, don’t despair. Following a daily routine and making sure to get in plenty of feeds during the day can encourage night sleeping. However, some kids take longer to hit this milestone than others. Get rest when you can, and hang in there!
