Aiden's 2 week check up went well. He weighed 9 pounds, 12 ounces and was 22 inches long, which means he gained back all the weight he had lost in the first few days plus a few ounces. I was glad to hear that since I had been wondering if he was getting enough to eat. He is in the 90th percentile for his height and 75th percentile for his weight. The doc gave him a good report.
The only problems we are experiencing is that he has very fussy periods during the night which the doctor said sounds like colic and he also has a clogged tear duct which means once of his eyes doesn't open as wide and is more swollen than the other. We can hopefully get the eye cleared up but unfortunately colic normally lasts around 3 months so it seems like Mommy may not be getting a very good nights rest for quite some time. :-)
Aiden will go back for another check up at 2 months. That seems so far away but we know it will be here before we know it.
