We took Silas in for a weight check yesterday and the news was good. He weighed in at 9 lbs 15.5 oz. That means he's gained 2 lbs in less than 3 weeks! Si weighed 8 lbs 7 oz at birth, but lost 7 oz by the time we left the hospital. He probably lost a few more oz before mom's milk came in, but was back up to 8 lbs for his first medical appointment when he was a week old. So, he regained his birth weight, and then some, and is doing really well. This is validation for mom, who is happy to know that she is providing her son with enough nourishment.
