As the subject line suggests, Matthews turns 9 weeks old tonight. This past week, he's been sleeping particularly well at night and during the day. He's been consistently rewarding us with 5 hr sleeps the past 4-5 nights. Last night he slept from 7pm - 12am and then from 1230am till 5am, waking up at his usual time of 7am. We are of course delighted with his progress.
He will give us sustained eye contact, smile and watch us as we speak to him. He also likes to listen to Duncan and I speaking to one another. I've been reciting the alphabet slowly to him and he will watch my lips and 'chat' back. He responds particularly to the sound 'ooh'.
Matthew had his medical appointment yesterday. The test results show that he had no reflux from his bladder to his kidneys and that everything is functioning normally. The results will be sent to his paediatrician and we are waiting for final word that he can stop his medication.
