So yesterday Will was 3 weeks and i am just so amazed how much he has changed since birth. Normally a baby will lose quite a bit of weight after birth and by the age of 2 weeks the doctors just want your baby to be back up to birth weight. Well Our little guy was 6lbs 14 ounces when he was born and lost down to 6lbs 8 ounces well guess what Will weighs about 8lbs 10 ounces now! Its amazing when you breast feed how much better it is for your child. I have had to start the past few days giving him breast milk and formula and seems to still be gaining weight so i am not concerned to much!
Just be prepared to deal with constipation for a day or so when you bring formula into the picture because i learned that breast milk is a natural laxative so that is why breast feed babies go more frequent than formula feed babies. But we have got it in control though! Yay
The perfect little family!!
