3 Months old

Today my munchkin is 3 months old. Today is also her due date making her zero as well. At 3 months (zero) Ella can pick up her head and turn it from side to side when on her belly. She also holds her own head most of the time. She is eating 2 ounces every 3 hours. She loves bath time. She has started really looking and focusing on objects. Her eyes were officially cleared last Thursday and she does not have ROP (retinopathy of prematurity) and will not develop it at this point. Her next eye exam will be when her adjusted age is 6 months (Feb). She has yet to pass a hearing test and has an appointment for a different kind of test in September. It is obvious that she can hear, it is believed that she has fluid in her middle ears causing her to fail the exam. We'll have to see what the next test says, but she may just need tubes. She is a generally happy and good baby. She is also starting to be able to suck on the binkie without just shooting across the room. She is wearing some newborn clothes and still some preemie. We are using newborn diapers, but as soon as what we have is gone we are switching to size 1. Right now I only like Huggies little snugglers because they have elastic on the back and sides (and we need it!).
