On discharge (2/17) Jake weighed 6lbs, 9oz, was alittle jaundiced and his feedings were supplemented w/ about 0.5oz of formula. Fortunately, he gained some of the weight back and was 6lbs, 12oz at yesterday's pedi visit (picture of him all bundled up on his way to the doctor) and taken off formula.
This first week has been pretty exhausting. Since I'm breastfeeding, his feeding schedule pretty much dictates my sleeping schedule, which occurs every 2hrs during the day and every 3hrs at night, with each feeding lasting about an hour. Jake's been a really easy baby so far. As long as his diaper's clean and his stomach's full, he's happy and sleeping. You can't ask for anything more than that!
My parents, oldest sister and her husband came up to visit Jake today. They brought more gifts for Jake and lots and lots of food!
