7 weeks: 7 pounds 1 ounce

We had our weight check appointment yesterday and Kamran is now 7 pounds 1 ounce. The size of your average newborn he is still itty bitty but at 7 weeks (2 weeks adjusted) he is now 2 pounds over his birth weight. Yippeee for growing.

As for that last growth spurt I mentioned, I can’t tell for sure but I think Kamran is longer. He’s filling out his NB sized clothes better now at least. I mean, it’s possible that I shrunk some laundry but I think growth is more likely. It was quite funny. The other day kayvan brought me a 0-3 month outfit to put Kamran in because he peed all over himself. His leggies were just too short to fit! Boy was swimming. I told Kayvan it would be another few weeks before we fit into that size.

We got out of the house yesterday and I not only drove with Kamran for the first time, but I drove solo with Kamran for the first time. We met up with one of my neighbors from the hospital and her beautiful twins, Henry and Claire. The twins were born exactly one week before Kamran and were in the same rooms as Kam during his NICU stay. Everyone was quite well behaved on our walk. It was such a beautiful day out too!

From there we went to the pediatrician, got Kams weight and because he gained, he also got a shot. Boy didn’t like that much. Kayvan went to make Kam’s follow up appointment as soon as the nurse pulled out the needle I called him a chicken. Kam didn’t like the shot and screamed. But he was screaming when I put him on the table because I took the bottle I was feeding him away. Sorry buddy. Kam did have a fussy night but that was thankfully only until about 11 and he slept very well last night. We’re all getting the hang of this sleep schedule thing.

Today it’s raining and I’m enjoying being able to snuggle with my super snuggler.
