Truett

This is us today.


We went to the doctor on Tuesday and got a really good report. Truett was born at 7lb 15.8 oz. The day we went home he weighed 7lb 14.5 oz. Well as of Tuesday Truett weighted 8lb 11oz. So, I think we are in the clear for breastfeeding. I am so pleased with how things are going and that breastfeeding is working out. I have huge thank yous to give to the nurses at Clark Hospital and Jennifer Jordan. Dr. Corba (Truett's pediatrician) actually said multiple times "wow, he is doing good." He even said we could cut back on a few feedings, well tell that to Truett.

All-in-all we couldn't be happier with how things are going with his feedings. He isn't really a fussy baby either. He barely cries at night so I think Josh's sleep is barely disturbed. I of course am feeding, but it is really nice not to have to soothe a fussy baby on top of feeding. Truett really is pretty easy so far. We'll see how things change.

We aren't in the clear yet for his pee'ing problem when he was first born, but those appointments will be in September. Stay tuned for those results.
