Brooks went for his two week check-up yesterday.
We really love our pediatrician- he is very patient, thorough and lets us ask more questions than we probably should and never makes us feel stupid or like nervous new parents:).
Brooks weighed in at 8lbs and 9oz - almost back up to his birth weight.
He checked out all good and is hitting all his milestones normally- lifting his head, reacting to noise, looking at lights, etc.
We were given the all clear to let him sleep as long as he wants to at night. We were having to wake him up every two-three hours to eat, but now that his weight is back up and he is gaining steadily he can sleep for longer periods.
This was good news because so far Brooks does sleep at night. Last night was the first night we let him sleep and he went for two four hour stretches at a time. Larry fed him at the first wake-up call and I fed him at the second which allowed us both to get a longer interval of sleep.
