Abby and I took Maxwell to his 5 week check up with Dr. B. He did so good with getting weighed, measured, physical review and of course a shot. Abby and mommy where more sad with the shot then Max was. Abby read us books while we waited for Dr. B. Dr. B was very happy with how Max was growing. Max gained 2lbs. 7oz. and grew 1.25inches in just 3 weeks. He is 9lbs. 13oz. and 22.25in. long and is doing well. We are hoping he starts to get into a routine of eating every 3-4 hours during the day instead of 2 hours, but we are thankful he is doing so well nursing! At night Max is waiting around 3+ hours to eat, so that is wonderful (at least for mommy!) Dr. B also made a request that Abby get her very own doctors kit so she can keep a eye on Maxwell while we are away from the doctor's office. So after our successful doctors visit, off us 3 went to Walmart for a two hour shopping trip. Getting to the store is not a very frequent option for us at this time so we had to make the most of our outing. And yes, Abby got her doctors kit (she loves it)!
