Wonder Week #3- Smooth Transitions

Wonder Week #2: Smooth Transitions

This one was actually not too bad on us. It is supposed to hit sometime between weeks 11 ½ & 12 ½. And it hit just before his 11^th week but was over in just a couple of days. So far this one was the best one as far as crankiness goes, but not looking forward to the next one which has 2 parts and lasts about a month!

Here is a list of what they say may happen during this wonder week:

- Follow something with his eyes in fluid motion (YES)

- Turn his head to follow something (YES)

- Your baby is more lively, more active, squirms and is turning in all directions (YES, YES, YES!)

- Rolls from tummy to back with a little help (YES)

- Shakes a rattle (YES)

- Discovers new possibilities of voice- screaming, cooing, crowning (YES, but he already did all of that)

- Blows saliva bubbles (YES, but he has been doing that for quite some time)

- Clears enjoys light bulbs (Yes, but that has been going on for at least a month)

- Enjoys sounds that go from high to low (YES)

The biggest change that we noticed during this week was that all of a sudden he rolled over on his own from tummy to back! He has had no interest in that and then 3 days into his wonder week all of a sudden he decided to roll over on his own… Although these wonder weeks really are hard on my sleep (and sometimes my patience) they really are amazing!!! I love watching him just wake up and all of a sudden it is like the world has opened up for him.
