We had our 2 week doctor's appointment yesterday. Ford weighs 8lb 11oz which is one pound and 7 ounces over the weight he was when we left the hospital. The doctor told us they only expect babies at 2 weeks to be back to birth weight. Oh my, maybe we are going to have a BIG boy on our hands.
It is such a relief to go back to that 2 week appointment to hear the doctor say you are doing everything right, good job, momma! When you are nursing a baby you have no clue how much they are consuming and I tended to worry whether the baby is getting the right amount. Olivia was a petite little baby and we had to go back for weight checks because she wasn't gaining weight quick enough. It is such a weight off a momma's shoulders to know she is doing something right and her baby is just fine. Way to go, Ford! You're a Chunky Champ!
