Are We There Yet?


Four days ago, Jason weighed 8lbs 1oz.  Today, he weighed 8lbs 9oz.  Doctor's like to see a weight gain of a half ounce per day.  They LOVED seeing 2 ounces per day for Jason.  Saturday, he woke up hungry and he has been eating ever since.  I'm trying to increase my milk supply with every trick I know, but it hasn't been enough.  I had to buy formula.  And thank goodness he tolerates it well.  (I tried formula one time on Heidi. She was violently ill for hours after just 2 ounces.)

Also, Jason't ALT levels are in the normal range.  And his AST levels are almost normal!  The doctor doesn't need us to come back for a whole week!
