Christopher's progress

Christopher is now a clever 5 week old baby and has figured out how to
smile. His smiles are beautiful.

Our midwife visited today and took Christophers measurements. He has
been slow with his weight gain and so I am going to see a lactation
consultant. We think it is probably being caused by a poor latch, and
also he doesn't really wake in the night so is missing a night feed.

Weight now: 3880g (almost 8lbs 9oz)
Length: 54cm
Head circ: 37.5cm

I'm guessing he'll be a 6 week old before he catches up with Bevans
birth weight.

I've also arranged his 6 week doctor check, his immunisations, and am
sorting out the plunket nurse appointment.
