Drew turned two weeks old on Sunday, January 23. Our two week appointment was on Monday the 24th. He weighed 6 pounds 3 ounces and was 18 1/2 inches long. The doctor was very happy with his progress. We still are feeding him the high calorie formula and will continue to do so until he is 2 months old. The doctor has set a goal of 10 pounds by 2 months old -- we'll see. Here are some things about Drew:
- He is really an easy baby so far, really laid back and doesn't cry unless he is hungry or mad (usually only when his hat gets over his eyes).
- He sleeps a lot (a lot more than Addy) but the doctor said that was normal since he was early.
- He is really strong -- he rolled from tummy to back on a hard surface (when he was 2 1/2 weeks old).
- He hates his baths -- screams the entire time.
- He is still wearing preemie cloths (although I think he is almost out) and wearing a newborn diaper.
- He eats 1 1/2 ounces every 2 hours during the day and 3 hours at night.
- He is really interested in Addy's voice. Opens his eyes and looks around every time he hears her.
