Well, 6 weeks have past and I can't believe how my life has changed so much in that time. It changes every day. I had my 6 week check-up today. I have lost all of my pregnancy weight and then some. Yeah!! She said everything was fine and was so excited to see Riley. The picture on here of the 3 of us was after she had taken some with her camera and he was not happy about getting woke up from his nap. I have to say that without her and Jeremy I would have went crazy during my pregnancy. They both know my personality so well that it scares me. I'm happy to say that my blood pressure was NORMAL!!!
We've had a bout with the formula again and this time I believe we are on the right track. He has a sensitivity to the cow's milk and we are on Similac Alimentum, which is really broken down so he doesn't have to try so hard to digest. He weighed 10 lbs even and was 22 1/4 inches long on Friday. Some of his pants are still too long, but we will get there! He enjoyed his first Valentine's Day at Granny and Popa's. In addition to the vocal noises he started making a couple of weeks ago, he laughed last week for the first time. I almost cried. I had to call Jeremy at work and tell him. He does it more and more, but sometimes it's loud and sometimes is soft. I love it. I can't believe half of my leave is up. He has changed so much since he was born and our "normal" changes daily. Strangely, we adjust and go about the day. He is still sleeping 4-6 hours straight at night, which I am thankful. I do wonder when I will wake up and have had 6-7 hours straight sleep. I have no idea how long it normally takes for a baby to grasp sleeping through the night. I know that every baby is different, but sleeping through the night and the final color of his eyes are still a mystery to us.
