So one Tuesday we took Kamden to the Doctor to do a weight check to make sure he was gaining weight. When Nic and I took him last week he weighed 7lbs 2oz. Which was good seeing as he had dropped down to 6lbs 14oz by the time we left the hospital. Anyway he weighed 8lbs even at the Doctor. We see a PA named Bill at Mesa Pediatrics and I really really like him. He's on top of things and he is really good about making you feel like your concerns or questions are important. Anyway Bill walked in and visited with Taya a bit... she Loves him. And then he said, "So did the nurse tell you how much Kamden weighs?" I replied, "Yeah, 8lbs even." He then told me how idealy they want a newborn to gain at least 1/2 an oz a day and Kamden gained 14oz in 7 days. Meaning his average weight gain was 2oz a day!! "So can we say chunk?!" The Dr said then he said, "My next question is... I have a bunch of kids that can't gain weight. Can I send them your way?" I just started laughing. Nursing Kamden has been such a great thing so far.. he wakes every 3-4 hours to eat and I haven't had an problems like I did with Taya. I am alot more dedicated to it this time. So things are great! I am enjoying being home with both my kids. Taya is a big helper and she adores her little brother!
