Today was a big day! Jon, Jack and I headed off to Jack's first Dr.'s appt. Everything went very well. He now weighs 6 lbs, 9.5 oz- he is SO close to being back to his birth weight. The Dr. said that she likes babies to be back up to birth weight by two weeks, so at 5 days old Jack seems to be eating well.
He did need to go get his bilirubin levels checked and we will find out those results later today (just found about an hour ago, everything looks good). We'll head back in about a week for check up number two (Jack is already looking forward to that one).
In the car, ready to go.
Look at that whopper... 6lbs 9.5oz

Jack stayed very quiet while the Dr. listed to his heart.
He wasn't so quiet when it was time for her to look in his ears!

Hey fellow blogger! Jack is so sweet, and it's great to hear that he's going strong. :)
