2 month update

 


Today was Max's 2 month check up. Can you believe it's been 2 months?!?! We woke up bright and early for our 8:15 appointment. He started off very happy (as you can see from the pic of him in the car seat). We met with a new pediatrician today and really liked her. She helped us come up with a new formula to try in order to get past these constiption issues. She said that sometimes soy can constipate the baby so we are trying Emfamil Gentlease. So far so good :) We even had a little poo today! He was measured & weighed. Here are his stats:

Weight - 10 pounds 3.5 ounces - 40th percentile
Length - 23 inches - 50th percentile
Head - 39 centimeters - 30th percentile

After that doctor's exam, the nurse came back in and gave him 3 vaccination shots. He screamed louder than ever, but as soon as I picked him he calmed down.

2 months in to life and here's what the little man is up to these days:
*eating 5 oz every 4 hours
*enjoying bath time a lot more, but still hates when we take him out of the water and dry him off
*sleeps about 7 hours straight at night
*loves to be in the sitting up position so he can look around
*likes when we sing to him
*loves the paci
*"talks" to us
*smiles all the time
*can make eye contact and follow things with his eyes
*looks for us when we put him down and walk away
*moved up to size 1 diapers
*finally able to fit into 0-3 months clothes

Making Max is the best thing we have ever done. He has truely changed our lives. We cannot wait for each new adventure we get to experience with him.
