Erik and I took baby Jack to Dr. B today for his 2 week check-up. We both assumed that he had gained weight, since his cheeks had seemed to plump up a bit. We were shocked, however, to find out that he had gained almost a pound! He had come home from the hospital at 5 lbs 15 oz. Today he was 6 lbs 13 oz. We were so happy. Apparently breastfeeding is suiting Jack very well.
He had grown 1/2" and came in at the 50th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for height. She even told us that Jack could be close to 6 foot tall. Erik was so proud! He was starving the whole time he was being examined, so he fussed a lot. All-in-all, though, he did great and we had a wonderful first doctor visit.
