We Must be Doing Something Right

Lewin and Melissa went to Cooley-Dick yesterday for the weekly informal lactation clinic and weight check. The little man tipped the scales at a whopping 12 pounds 5 ounces, a 12.3 ounce increase since last Monday (see weight chart). With his steady weight gain, Paula (CDH Lactation Consultant) gave the green light to stop setting an alarm to feed Lewin in the middle of the night. Melissa had messed up the alarm (wishful thinking?) on Sunday night by inadvertently skipping the 3-ish AM feeding. Lewin slept from about midnight until 5:45 AM when he started fussing (and woke up Melissa). Last night was pretty much a repeat...and there was much rejoicing!

We go to the pediatrician tomorrow for Lewin's 2 month (gasp!) exam. More details will follow!
