One Month Check Up


On Wednesday, Luis had his One Month check up. As suspected, he is a healthy, growing baby. He weighed in at 9lbs 14oz, and 22 1/2". I was surprised (and a bit astounded) to learn that he's put on 2lbs 9oz since birth (he lost 10 oz in the first couple of days). Clearly he is a child with a hearty appetite - wonder who he gets that from?? I was told that "in the beginning" Luis should put on about an ounce a day (which he's done). I'm really wondering how long "the beginning" lasts, i.e., how long will he maintain that kind of weight gain??
Next month: vaccinations. I'm definitely making sure Diego can join us for that appointment!
