Brayden went for his 1 month appointment today even though he's almost 2 months. Our doctors' office called us to reschedule his checkup, so he finally got to go today. He was 12 lbs, 10 oz (80th percentile) and 24 inches long (90th percentile). His head circumference is 16 1/4 in (85th percentile). Needless to say, we have a big boy on our hands! The doctor said that he looks very healthy!
Brayden been so much fun in these past few weeks. He's really started to make more sounds and he "talks" so much more. He is starting to smile a lot when you talk to him... or when he's looking at the ceiling fan. He's drinking about 4.5-5 oz each feeding. Bedtime is going better since he's now sleeping anywhere from 3-6 hours at a time. He'll usually eat around 7:30-8pm and not wake up again until about 1:30am. He'll usually wake up one more time around 4:30 am. We are really hoping that he starts sleeping all the way through soon, but I'm not holding my breath.
He got 2 shots today, Hep B and DTP. It was not too fun for him, but he only cried for a second. There will be about 4 shots coming next month, so that will not be an appointment that we're looking forward to.
I have been back to work for about a week now. It was good to go back and I am really enjoying my job. Brayden goes to Kindercare on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I'm just glad that I get to spend all day on Mondays and Wednesdays with him. Jeff has been doing a lot of work from home lately, so we're able to see him a lot during the day too!
We can't believe that he's almost 2 months already!
