50 days of Emilia

I failed doing weekly or even montly updates so far, but today(Wednesday 9th of July) Emilia is 50 days old and they have been the best 50 days of my life so far!

Mummyhood is exhausting, it's just me getting up in the night due to my partner's medical issues, which means I don't get a break, but it's so rewarding.

Emilia weighs almost 11lbs now, up from her birth weight of 7lbs 14oz 7 weeks ago.
She loves her milk and has no plans of going more than 2-3 hours between feeds during the day for now *ha*.
At  night she can go 4-5 hours and the other night she went 8 hours between feeds, sadly that was a one-off.

She's the noisiest little girl at night, she grunts and farts in her sleep like crazy, but then during the day she is completely silent when napping.

She started giving real smiles in week 6 and likes to smile at herself in the mirror.

Still loving bathtime and I give her one almost every night as it has become a part of our bedtime routine.

She's in 0-3 month clothing and size 2 nappies/diapers.

She likes being held and cuddled, but sometimes when she's unhappy, she settles better being in her bouncer than being in my arm, I put this down to the smell of milk or something like that.
