9 Pounds, 2 Ounces

Sofian is getting big. If we had any worries that he wasn't feeding as well as he could, those were dispelled today at our 2-week check-in with Dr. Weiss. I guessed a conservative 8 pounds, 2 ounces, which would have been 1 pound more than his weight on his first doctor's check-up. But he went beyond that to add 2 full pounds. Dr. Weiss noted the weight at the 2-week check-up typically just gets the baby back to the weight he/she was at birth. Beyond the weight, both Mama and son are quite healthy.

We're still dealing with some gassy issues bubbling up in the little guy, and last night's sleeping wasn't very sound. The Tum-Ease seems to be helping, though, and we're gonna try a couple of different methods of burping. But, with the amount of nutrition this guy is taking in, no wonder he's a little gassy. Here are a few pics from our doc visit:
