Finally, back in my pack n play after my first trip to the doctor and the grocery store.
Ben had his first appointment with the pediatrician this morning. We went with a pediatrician recommended by my OB since we don't know many people around here yet. We loved him! Dr. Chopra was extremely kind, complimented Ben (and Mommy!) so we were all very happy. The nurse was fabulous as well, so it was a great experience overall.Stats:
Born 7 lb 1 oz
Left hospital 6 lb 11 oz
Today 7 lb 8 oz
Born 18.5 inches
Today 20.375 inches
Don't know what his head circumference was at birth, but he is at 13.5 now.
Apparently, the APA is now recommending a multi-vitamin for breastfed babies even though Mommy is taking her vitamins, so the nurse told us a couple we could try. But, she said if he refuses and spits it up, just forget about it! I like her!
The doctor also recommended 30 minutes of tummy time 4 times a day. I can't wait. I have been excited about tummy time. He is barely awake 30 minutes, 4 times a day, so we will see how that goes.
