Christopher has been doing very well. He was jaundice and christmas eve until the day after christmas he was in a phototherapy bed, which was not fun for me or Carson, but our pediatrician says that his color looks amazing now. Then we had a weight gain issue, he wasn’t gaining weight, at his two week checkup he should have been back to his birth weight and he wasn’t even close. So we have been nursing and supplementing with formula. We went to the doctor yesterday and he now weights 6lbs 9oz. We don’t have to go back to the doctors until his 2 month check up which will be when he gets his shots, no fun.
He has been sleeping for longer periods during the night and is awake for longer periods during the day. He loves car rides and gets to walk the mall every day we are able to. He is able to focus on things and knows my face and tries to grab my hair and pull already. He is learning his voice even if it is grunting and straining. The sleep deprivation is well worth it and it’s not even that bad right now.
I have a very good baby boy and I love him dearly. Luckily for me I get to work from home part time now, so everything is going great!
