Renzo... the Poopersaurus that never sleeps... *yawn*

Being statistical people, Feli and I have been noting down Renzo's every activity since his first day back home on 14th August 2009, in hopes that we can find a pattern through the data gathered. These data includes things like the time he sleeps and wakes up, the amount of milk he was fed and how much he actually drank, number of diaper changes and brand of diaper, his temperature (taken 3 times daily... or at least we try to...=P ) , etc...

And after painstakingly gathering all the data, I shall try to make sense out of the data on our excel spreadsheet and get some information from it...

Accordingly to baby websites like BabyCenter.com.sg and a few others, at 6 weeks old, Renzo should be sleeping about 15-16 hours per day and feeding about 5-6 feeds of 150ml per session per day.

Note: Renzo's data is only until Week 5 as Renzo is into the 2nd day of his 6th week as of writing

So as we can see from the table above only during the second week of his life did Renzo eat less than he should... Probably his Jaundice caused him to have less appetite?

Anyway, it is confirmed that he sleeps less than the average baby and that coupled with the fact that he poops quite regularly (current record stands at 8 poop sessions in a single day) have earned him that title of Poopersaurus, the sleepless dinosaur~
