All of my babies started out on the smallish side, but they all chunked up rather quickly once they were born. Trevor appears to want to be the fastest growing of the three of them. The kid has a killer appetite, basically when he is awake he wants to be eating!
I took him in for his 1-month well-baby visit on Monday. When he was born, he weighed 6 pounds, 14 ounces and now he weighs 10 pounds, 6 ounces! That's right, that is a 3 1/2 pound weight gain! There is a reason we call him our "Lil' Pig!"
We enjoyed the first couple of weeks of his life where he spit up very little, but unfortunately, he has become a "Happy Spitter" (for the most part, he's not bothered by it nor is it getting in the way of growth, obviously!) like his older brothers were. Not like Toby, who also was a projectile spitter, but he does spit up quite a bit and I am drowning in daily laundry.
He is starting to sleep longer stretches at night. He gets up twice during the night, for the most part. I'm exhausted though. I have a really hard time managing a nap during the day. So usually, I just have to make it on what little sleep I get during the night & "fake it till I make it".
Until later,
Emily
