Q: Holding Her Own Bottle
asked by: jessesgirl on February 21st, 2007

Yesterday we went visit a friend and she was feeding Ava a bottle. She took the bottle out of her mouth for a second to do something, but she was still holding it in the palm of her hand in front of Ava. Ava was staring at it so I watched to see what she would do. She was concentrating so hard, it was precious. She grabbed the bottle with both hands and brought it up to her mouth and was able to suck 3 times then if fell to her cheek. I couldn't believe she did that! It was like watching her take her first steps. The bottle was long, so it was hard for her to hold, but if it would have been the little one, she would have been able to keep it there. I couldn't believe what I was watching. Of course when I got the camera out, she didn't do it again.

go ava! figures she'd stop once the camera came out. little stinker!

finn would hold his own bottle all the time if i let him, but i don't. i feel like he's growing up way too fast and i need to hang on to some of these baby things, like feeding him. i'm proud of every new thing he learns but it also makes me sad.

She tries to hold it alot when we're feeing her, but I don't trust her. I know it wouldn't stay in her mouth for very long.
She's been giving us some problems for about 3 weeks now to feed her. Any little sound or new person that goes by, she stops sucking and moves her head away, looks at what she wants to look at, then cries that the bottles gone. It's so aggravating. Sometimes I have to go in our bedroom with the lights dimmed and the noise machine on for her to relax and eat. I read up on it and there's just some babies that are more easily distracted than others.
She's been very sensitive and alert since day 1. Now she easily distracted, she fights her sleep. She's been active since I was pregnant. I felt her kick at 14 weeks. My goodness, I'll have a little monster on my hands. She's be an interesting little toddler. We think she'll be like my husband. He's very active, outgoing, and a little add.
