2Y4M 33W3D 「マー」とうつぶせ寝 "Maaaaa" & lying on his tummy

タカラは左右とも寝返りをマスター。はいはいの前進＆伝い歩きもするようになった。そして、四つんばいになって立ち上がろうとする。（もちろんできないけど！）

寝返りが上手になってくると、添い乳でおっぱいを飲む体勢からコロンと寝返ってしまったり、昼寝中ちょっと目が覚めた時にコロンと寝返って起きてしまう。こんな感じで数日間混乱していたようだ。一時的におっぱいを飲む量も昼寝の時間も減ったのだが、要領を得てきてもう大丈夫。その代わり、うつぶせ寝をするようになった。うつぶせ寝ができると熟睡できる。夜もあまり起きなくなったのは嬉しい。

水曜日の夜、コットの中で寝られずに泣いていたタカラをしばらくそのままにして置くと、「あーん、あーん、あーん　マー　マー　マー」と泣き出した。よーく聞いていると「ダー　ダー　ダー」とか「アータ　アータ」と言っていることもあるような気がする。本当に言っているのかもしれない。

Takara can now roll over to both sides. He can crawl not only backwards but forwards as well. He often tries to stand up from all four. (Of course, he can't manage to do it yet.)

Just after he'd mastered roll-over, he was a bit confused for a couple of days. From the lying down breastfeeding position, he rolled over without any proper intension. When he woke up in the middle of nap, he rolled over and couldn't go back to sleep. He had less milk and less sleep for a couple of days. Now he is fine. He knows what roll-over is for. Instead, he can now sleep on his tummy. Babies sleeping on his tummy can sleep better and Takara is no exception. He doesn't wake up as often as he was only a couple of days ago!

On Wednesday evening, Takara was crying in his cot for cuddle. We first ignored him hoping he would go back to sleep. He was first crying, "Aaaaan Aaaaan Aaaaan..." then he went "Maaaa Maaaa Maaaa..." Of course I picked him up immediately because he clearly called for me! If we listen carefully, he sometimes sounds "Daaaa Daaaa Daaaa" and "Aaaata Aaaata". Takara is calling us for sure. How amazing it is!
