10 1/2 weeks old
Hello Everyone! It's been WAY too long since I've updated this, so my apologies...
Nicholas is doing wonderfully. We started supplementing with a small amount of formula for gassy/fussy babies when he was around 6 weeks old (he was definitely fussy, and also seemed gassy). Ever since then, he's been a completely different little man! It may be coincidental, may be because he turned 6 weeks old, or may be that now that we're mostly feeding him with a bottle we know exactly how much he's getting to eat (maybe he wasn't getting enough to eat). Whatever the cause of his improved demeanor, we're sticking with it! Weeks 2-6 were really, really difficult on all three of us, but things are so much better now. He's also sleeping like a champ, up to 10 hours a night, and has been for about three weeks now. When he does get up in the morning, he'll eat, then go back to sleep for an hour or two! We're definitely thankful for that. As long as we're rested, we can deal with whatever he throws our way! He's smiling a lot, and seems to be getting stronger everyday.
We're anxious to see how much he's grown. He sees the pediatrician this week. He's turning into quite the little chunk and we love it! :)
Will post an update after we see the Dr. this week!

1 month appt.
Well, our little man now weighs 11 lbs, and is 22 3/4 inches long! He's growing like a weed.
We had an ultrasound done on his hips last week (because he was breech, and because of my hip birth defect) and everything looks perfectly normal! He was checked out pretty good at birth, they just wanted to do this as a precautionery measure.
