Well we went to Dr. Alleman's today. Logan weighs in at 10 pounds, 12 oz! He is up 4.4 pounds in 5 weeks! (We left the hospital 5 weeks ago tomorrow, at 6 pounds 8 oz!). He is 22 1/2 inches long, up from 20 inches at birth. His head circumfrence is 37cm. I can't remember what it was when he was born.
With Dr. Alleman's reccommendation, we've decided to switch to lactose free formula instead of breastfeeding. Logan seems to be tolerating that a lot better than the breastmilk. He is almost a brand new baby! So for now, I am still pumping and storing my milk until I can make myself stop. I am hoping that somewhere down the line he'll be able to take the milk that I've stored. If not, oh well. He is so much happier now. It is really rough on me, but I will deal with it.
On Tuesday, Jeanene, Joey, Logan and I went to the Mom and Baby class again. This time, there was a pediatric linguist speaker. It was really neat learning how babies develop their language. She also stressed the importance of baby sign language. We will definitely be teaching him to sign!
Tomorrow, we are meeting Noelle and some other friends and their boys at Odessey 1 during the day. It'll be nice getting out of the house :)
We just found out that Logan will be getting a new cousin on Nick's side! Congratulations Michelle!
That's it for now. :)
