After Noah's 10 day checkup, our pediatrician wanted to keep an eye on Noah's weight gain because it was on the low side of normal.
We took Noah in for his 4 week appointment... and oh my gosh has he gained weight! Almost 9 pounds now... and you can feel it carrying him around.
Not surprisingly, he's been eating a lot... which means mom and dad haven't been getting a lot of sleep. We are starting to figure out the tricks to extend 2 hour intervals between feedings to 3 (the difference of about 1 hour of sleep at a time to 2). Its no consistent yet, but about half the nights are going more smoothly.
Noah likes to be heart-to-heart when you are putting him to sleep Whether laying vertically on your chest or horizontally... he likes that close contact.
He is pretty amazing.
