Cole is One Month Old!

It seems like Cole has been a part of our family for more than a month because he has transitioned in so seamlessly.    Here are some highlights about him-

He weighs 9.5 pounds (from the doctor today, we were there checking on some reflux issues..more on that later).

He eats every 2-3 hours.

He wears size 1 diapers and newborn or smaller 0-3 month clothes.

He usually naps in his swing, but most of all likes to sleep on me.  At night he sleeps in his bassinet and wakes every 3 hours to eat.  However, after his 3:30/4 am feeding he has been very fussy and not wanting to go back to sleep.  This along with some congestion/increased spitting up gave me reason to take him to the doctor today.  We now have a prescription for Zantac and hopefully that will do the trick.

He still sleeps so much, so we haven't caught many glimpses of his personality.  I have been trying harder to do his tummy time, and he can turn his head well from one side to the other.  We still call him "floppy baby" though, since we were so used to Nate having real head control and core strength from birth.  He does love to snuggle and we love that about him!

This modeling stuff is hard!
