I took Zachary to his 6 month check up with the pediatrician the day before Thanksgiving. He had grown an inch, his head grew a little, but he only gained 4 ounces. That was probably not even accurate because he hadn't pooped for over a week. (It ALL came out on Thanksgiving day! Wow) So, Zach is 12 pounds at 6 months. I have been ordered to supplement with formula and up the table feedings and I have to bring him back in a month for a weight check. So far i have fed him food 2 to 3 times a day on top of nursing every 3 hours and an extra bottle at some point in the day. All this food and Zachary still doesn't sleep thru the night! What he does do is poop, a lot. I love my little baby- but, grow baby grow.
Ahh...little guys are so cute, and a little easier on the back and arms. Sierra was like that. She was 15 pounds at a year.
ReplyDeleteI love how little he is. Look at that cute little face.
ReplyDeleteDo you know what percentile he is? Some babies are just little. I know I am loving my lightweight... what a difference it has been for me!
ReplyDeleteHe is 3rd percentile across the board :)
