Guess How Much I Weigh?!
Well, the nurse who gave him his monthly RSV shot was shocked. Jordan's put on over 1000 grams since his last RSV. On average a baby only gains about 500 grams from one to the other. She had to adjust his dosage! As well, she said he was quite strong for his size. (Yes, we know - changing his diaper can be quite a wrestling match with those legs of his already!) He is also holding his head up very well.
Drum roll - Jordan is now 10lbs!
When he cluster feeds he's getting high fat content milk - and he does this once a day right now.
Last night he went with only one feed between midnight and 7am which was a shock! He'll normally eat every 2hrs at night.
But some of the most fun we're having lately is enjoying his smiles. (no its not gas - a parent can tell when its gas) He's doing so much more and reflexive of us smiling at him. Its so awesome to see! Especially when he lets out a squeal with it!

10 lbs is awesome, and he sounds (and looks) super cute. I hope to meet the little guy soon.
As a premie born close to the season he gets it every month from his birth until April. Poor monkey. Like there aren't enough shots!
