Quinn's appt. was yesterday...he gained 8 oz!!!! in 3 days!!!! The dr. was very happy w/ his weight gain and was pleasantly shocked. The secret?? I started him on formula. Every mother has to make the decision bottle or breast? I made the decision for both the kids to breast feed. As circumstances would have it, it just hasn't worked out for Quinn. He lost almost a pound since birth in less than 2 weeks. He seems much more satisfied w/ the bottle. We go back next week to make sure he at least gets back to his birth weight. Tons of other kids out there are fed formula from birth and are just fine. I'm sure Quinn will be too. The way I look at it...he's much healthier now gaining weight and not starving.
And what's w/ the snow?! We are getting bombarded w/ snow. The down side...Reagan has major cabin fever and is driving me insane. The plus side...I do not have to use personal time for my maternity leave on snow days. That means I'm saving lots of days and could probably extend my leave. Woo-hoo!!
