Rub a Dub Dub, Cooper in the Tub

Cooper is loving his nightly baths! We got a new tub that works great and he is very comfortable in it. I love the whole routine... We bathe him each night and then I hold him all wrapped up in his towel while Mark cleans up and gets things ready for bed. I put some music on and sing to him on the changing table while I dry him off, lotion him up and put his clothes on for bedtime. He is cuddly, smells wonderful and I love his feathery clean hair.

We don't have a specific bedtime yet but we are working on that. Our schedule really depends on how long he sleeps through the night and what time he gets up in the morning. We try to give him as much milk as possible at night so he has a full belly and sleeps as long as possible. This week, he reached an all time sleeping record- 6 hours at a time. I wish that happened every night! During the day he still eats every 3 hours. Dr. Glasser says that will continue if we want him to sleep long at night. I am still nursing and plan to do it as long as possible.
