Month 1 highlights

Jaden gets adept at latching on after the first week.  I worried about this at first, but he's been a good learner. He feeds for a long time and falls asleep often in between a feed. Tickling his ears and feet didn't really help.
Jaden took to the pacifier in the hospital on day 3.
Jaden took to the bottle once we got back home. So now, I express milk and feed it to him from the bottle each night.
Jaden rarely naps during the day. He's never really slept for more than 40 minutes at a stretch during the day.
One way to tell when Jaden is finally fast asleep is when both his hands go up and rest by his ears.
Jaden begins to sleep through the night from Week 2 onwards. There are nights he wakes up for a feed or diaper change, but so far he's been a good napper at night.
Jaden even allowed Sundar and me to go out one night during week 3.

Here's a selfie we took of our nightout at Tao Terraces.
