It sounds crazy but as soon as Danielle hit 3 months old, suddenly she could do so many new things! She started being able to pick up her rattle and shake it. Danielle was on the couch next to me, and I heard her rattle shake. I had to think for a minute, I didn't put it in her hand. The next day, she could pick it up and try to put it in her mouth, which also caused her to hit herself in the head a few times HAHA We are still working on the teething rings though. She's able to hold her rattle, because it has thin handles and she can hold her small Eeyore blanket. Thats her new favorite toy.
Now she can entertain herself for more time, just staring at the ceiling fan. Whats up there, I'm not sure, but it's fascinating. My gripe for now is the Pediatric Clinic at the hospital. Now we are military and get free healthcare. I'm happy, since I didn't have to pay a dime to give birth to Danielle. With that said, you get what you pay for. You'll see in a minute.
When I called to make her 2 month well baby appointment, I did call late. So I expected to have to wait a bit for her to be seen. They made her appt at 12 weeks, but corrected me by saying that she was only 2 1/2 months because it was on the 19th of the month. Her birthday is the 31st. Ok...annoying but whatever. For her 4 month well baby appointment, I called on Dec. 4th, a month ahead of time, right? They booked her for Jan. 21st. When I questioned this, I was told "Oh its only a couple weeks after she turns 4 months." No, its 3 weeks after her 4 month birthday. And this won't interfere with her shots and stuff? So yeah...even after calling a month ahead of time, her next appt is almost 2 months away. Nice, huh? Like I said, you get what you pay for.
