Play with Him Regularly

I spend most of my time playing with Jacob. Letting him know I really do enjoy his company. Doing this it provides good connection and insurance against future discipline problems. I always love playing with my son. He gives me joy everyday I wake up and I make him smile every second, minute and hour of the day. He loves when I take pictures of him while hes eating. He never cries when I hold him in my arms, talking with him and telling him how great my life is having him and how he was the biggest blessing that ever happened to me.

Problem

When Jacob is really hungry he would just cry really loud so therefore I would know that he's hungry or he needs a diaper change from mommy. When I'm carrying Jacob he tends to cry often because he wants to be carried and not left alone. As for me being his mom, I do my best to make him happy and cheerful. My son also has problem sleeping at night because as young as he is he mixes up his days and nights. When I seen this happening I tried my best to change it around, but sometimes its really hard for me because I'm always at school most of the day and the only days I have to keep him up all day is on Friday and on the weekends. Its really crazy because I really don't want him to sleep in the morning and then stay awake all through the night. It doesn't give me enough time sleep and it keeps me up all night, so when I come to school I'm sleeping in my classes instead of doing my work. It drives me nuts.

He Learns by Exploring

Taking care of my son becomes a little more complicating throughout his two and half month of age. Gradually my son is becoming more and more secure in his own baby life, I would always satisfy most of his needs for example, when he cries I would do my best to figure out why hes crying. Weather it is changing his diapers, giving him his food, warmth, cleanliness and companionship. Hes always learning new things everyday. Throughout the weekdays and weekends I would always take all my time and effort into spending quality time with my son. When ever hes sleeping I'm always there by his side. I never want to leave his bed side because I want him to wake up and see who his mother is, and know how much I truly love having him as a part of my life.

Keeping Bedtime Pleasant

When I satisfy my sons needs most of the time, for instance feeding him when hes hungry, changing and clothing him, picking him up when he cries, often visiting him in his crib when hes lonely he always goes to sleep well. When my son goes to sleep I use that time to get some rest as well. I'm a very busy mother at home, school, and when its bedtime. I'm always staying up feeding my son, singing to him and also doing homework for school. Its really complicating but I get through it everyday. Its a regular routine for me. I love my son and when ever he needs me I'm always by his side taking care of him and knowing that he has a mother and father to look up to when he's all grown up.

Coping With Crying

When my son cries and I don't know what he's crying about, I start climbing the walls and keep trying to figure out the reason why. While he continues to cry I just remember that Jacob is my baby. He didn't ask to be born. He is here because I wanted him. So I take very good care of him and try my best to be the perfect mom I can be. I get really upset sometimes when he cries and cries, but I don't show it to my boyfriend because I don't want him to worry about my problems. Everybody gets those sometimes, because your still going through the process and being the greatest mother you can be to your child. I'm glad I'm handling these problems well, especially because I have my family to help me out when I need them the most.

He Wants To Please Us

He's almost two months, and he already likes to please me and my boyfriend. When were changing he's diapers he tends to smile all the time. He loves it when we tickle him and plays with hes feet. For some reason he already recognizes people faces and knows who they are. Usually he doesn't cry, because ever since he was born he was a quit baby, he didn't cry like most babies do. I love it when he smiles in his sleep, it makes me laugh so much and it fulfills my heart. When my son eats hes always cheerful and happy to see his dad and I standing above him and happy as ever can be. I'm so thankful that he's a very wonderful and a really huge blessing in our lives. He change my boyfriend and I in many different ways.

Planning Ahead Helps

As soon as my son turns about eight months I'm going to start feeding him real food little by little. There are circumstances that he has to live under, for example I'll try not to pick him up every time he cries, because that's just spoiling him into doing what ever he wants. Another thing that I should be worried about is taking him into the store, If he wants a toy or candy I won't give it to him unless he is being a good boy and not acting naughty and being bad. I know that will upset him but I know its going to be for the best. I'm going to do my best taking care of my son and treating him with manner and how to behave proper when people are around.
