chloe updates 8/31 6 months and 10 days old

Sleep: is pretty horrible- wakes up every 2 hours sometimes every 1 hour nurses for a couple of mins and falls asleep in arms but then must hold her for 10-15 minutes unless she wakes up when put her back in crib. This means I am almost always sleep deprived. One night I put her in the swing and she slept for 5 hours straight but afraid to get her only sleeping in crib so it is up every 2 hours for me. Tried the cry it out method once I lasted for 12 minutes before i picked her up and she puked a ton up from working herself up so much.

Everyone says she is such a happy baby and does she ever cry? However she does fuss when tired (needs a nap every 3 hours or gets fussy), when hungry, or if she is sitting still/left to play by herself.

She seems to be breastfeeding a lot less and eats in like 3-5 minutes. However I just feed her when she seems interested so no set schedule so hard to tell how often she eats.

She loves Eli and he licks her face (even though I push her away)

She loves being outside and being in large crowds.

She usually is okay with strangers holding her.

She loves ice cream, pickles.

She likes fruit, baby cereal mixed with fruit

she is not a big fan of vegetables and the pureed mac and cheese i tried

she does not have any teeth yet

she is 14pounds 2 oz and 26.5 inches the doctor says that puts her in the 25 percentile for weight and 75 for height the calculator online says 5-10 percentile and 50-75 percentile.
