Christopher is now 2 weeks and 5 days old. I wish that I could say that time has passed by quickly. In a way, it has. However, most of the time seems to be dragging by so slowly. It's mainly because of the lack of sleep I've been getting. I'm sure that it's also because I'm home all day and bored most of the time. I can't wait until we can start taking him out in public. I mainly can't wait to get back to church, but we can't do that until he's AT LEAST 6 weeks old. We probably need to wait longer than that due to flu season. We'll see what the pediatrician says at our next appointment...his 1 month visit...at the end of January. He's already been to the pediatrician once...the day after he was released from the hospital. It was just a check-up, though, and no shots were involved.
He's been doing excellent since being home. We're continuing to breastfeed, which is still going well. We followed up with the Lactation Consultant twice since getting home. At the last visit, he weighed 8 lbs 8 oz, which is up from the 8 lbs 2.5 oz he weighed when he left the hospital 5 days earlier.
Here are some recent pictures of him:
