Simon is almost 2 weeks old and for the last two days he's been constantly hungry and fussy during certain times of the day (between 10 am and 2 pm and 9 pm and midnight). Not sure if he's hitting a growth spurt or just a variation of newborn behavior. Overall he's a pretty good baby and only fusses when something needs to be done (hungry, diaper, or gas). And he's slowly spending more time awake, which is nice when he's not fussing about something. Can't wait until he's more interactive! I'm looking forward to learning what his personality is like.
I still can't believe that we're parents sometimes and that we are trusted to raise this little guy. I keep trying to read up on various parenting/baby blogs only to realize more and more that it's a "learn on the fly" kind of job, much like my first few months of residency. No amount of reading or mental preparation is quite like the real thing! I'm just kind of figuring everything out by trial and error (like today, where I tried cloth diapers for the first time and he had a giant poop which leaked everywhere...my fault since he's not quite big enough for it yet).
