These littles don't stay little very long!

Sam had his latest appointment at the pediatrician today. He looks really good developmentally. He's been having some issues with gas and reflux. Luckily the doctor doesn't think he has full-blown reflux yet. Sam is a pretty piggy eater so he tends to swallow a lot of air. We would feed him and then burp him and keep him upright for half an hour yet he'd still get really grunty and sometimes get hiccups and "silent" reflux symptoms. Right now we'll be trying more tummy time since he's awake more during the day now. And more frequent burping.

My big guy's stats @ 3 weeks 1 day old:
8lbs 7oz
22 inches long

He was 6lbs 15oz and 20.5" long at birth and most babies by 2 weeks are just getting back to their birth weight!

Here's a picture of Sam with his new cousin Brayden, taken last week Thursday.
