Gaining Weight…It’s a Good Thing

We went to the doctors’ office this morning for Evan to have a weight check and color check. His bilirubin test yesterday came back lower (Day 1 – 5, Day 4 – 18, and Day 5 15.2) – so that is a plus…it is dropping. So the next thing to think about is his weight…which began at 6 pounds 15.2 ounces when he was born to 6 pounds 2 ounces on day 4 to 6 pounds 8 ounces on day 6 (today). Every one was so excited to see that he has gained 6 ounces in two days. He is eating like a “superstar” (as Josh would say) and sleeping just as good. Nights are not too bad, right now. We will see how things progress over the next few days, weeks, months.
