It's been a week now since the little guy made his debut. This photo is from his second day... and it's taken me this long to post it. (new babies have a way about making time pass in the blink of an eye.)
He's still not on a distinguishable sleeping or eating schedule. It's a bit tricky when planning a doctor's visit or any outing at all. It's not like you can make a nursing baby eat before they leave the house. It's not like I can produce milk on any schedule he doesn't set. This makes it interesting when one day he wants to eat every two hours and the next day he wants to eat every 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Ahhhhh fun times...All in all though he is such a good baby. He's a bit more alert than I'd expect a newborn to be though. So... I'm drinking decaf and wondering what else I can avoid to help him sleep. Mind you, even when he is awake for hours he's happy.
He's been to see his pediatrician once so far and will return on Thursday for a weight check. He's not showing any signs of jaundice, got a good review and we are in agreement for his shot schedule at this point.
