Nathan’s First Doctor’s Appointment
Both Nathan and Mom had doctor’s appointments today and both received very good reports.
Nate had his first well-baby check-up.

He now weighs 9 pounds 2 ounces (he gained 5 ounces since birth!) and somehow is an inch shorter, although Jeremy and I both agree that he wasn’t measured very well, so let’s just say that he is still 22 inches long.

His heart and lungs sound really good and Dr. Grimes said that he is in perfect health. He also lost his belly button stump this morning, so tonight we started doing “tummy time” exercises to help strengthen his arms and neck muscles.

But, as you can see, tummy time took quite a toll on Nate and it ended up being more like nap time than tummy time. It was still very cute, though!

Mom had her follow-up appointment from the c-section and everything looks great! I am officially cleared to drive, which I’m very excited about. I also found out I’ve lost 28 lbs., which is more than I actually gained during the pregnancy! Yay!!!
