So baby had his check-up today at the health care center. He's gained more weight than I expected and grown a lot too (3,8 kg / 53 cm) so we're doing good :) Next check-up is in two weeks so let's hope this continues. He also sleeps quite well, you know, for a little baby; 3-4 hrs in a row which would be just perfect. And then there's the but: our toddler has started waking up at night, usually around 3 am and he keeps screaming for some time - feels like 2 hrs but probably closer to 30 minutes or so. It sucks, for many reasons. First of all, I don't even get that 3-4 hrs of sleep and now I'm exhausted. More strong coffee for me, please! Luckily he does (eventually) fall back asleep and then sleeps for good 3-4 hrs. It sucks for him too because he does need more sleep during the night. When he sleeps well, he eats well and that goes the other way too. Let's just hope this is a phase that'll go away soon. The nurse, which I met today at health care center...

Good evening! My friday's been really good. First a quite productive day at work and got everything done on time what I was supposed to do. It's always comforting to start a weekend after day like that :) Then I went to pick up L from day care (the best part of my day, always) and go see an old friend of mine and her newborn son. I used to see this friend a lot 4-5 years ago when we were both single and basically had much more time to socialize than nowadays :) Then we both got married (not the same guy, hah haa!) and started a family and we all know how that works: if you don't keep in touch enough you just don't see your friends anymore. Sad but that's what happened. So we finally managed to see today after my work and it was so good to see her. And the baby..well, 4 weeks olds are very cute :) Thank god I'm already pregnant and gonna one of those on my own - too cute! And little. L seemed like a big guy compared to him so yes..tiny he was. L had fun too c...

Today is another check up concerning my baby: an ultrasound. I just had my previous one, 3d/4d, 2 weeks ago and we found out we're having another boy. The thing about 4d ultrasound is that you're able to see how your baby looks like - although baby's still very little. And it's nice to "meet" him again today and hope everything's still fine. I can't believe I'm already 20 weeks pregnant - half way already! My colleague told me her daughter just had her first baby at just 28 weeks. Baby weighed only little over 1 kg which made me realize anything can happen. Let's keep our fingers crossed that my baby will stay put until July! Yesterday we celebrated L's 2 year birthday party and I have to say that cake I made (car-cake with chocolate-cream filling) was delicious! L liked it too and we ended up eating the front part of the car :) He also got some small presents (books etc.) but the rest are still on their way to our house since I didn'...
