2 week follow up

Colin had his 2 week follow up for his tongue tie today. In 2 1/2 weeks he's gained 2 pounds! The doctor was pretty impressed and attributes his weight gain to being able to eat better after getting his tongue clipped. She brought in the original pediatrician who told us that he didn't believe in clipping and that tongue tie had no affect on the mother... to kind of show him that the clipping was a positive thing.  He kinda sorta apologized and said he'd done some more research since he met with us and thought maybe clipping could be a good thing... ha! After he left the room, our doctor said she wanted to bring him in so that maybe next time he wouldn't be so quick to dismiss something like that. She said she thought some of it had to do with the fact that he was a man and didn't understand breastfeeding! Lol  

Anyway, Colin went from the 11th percentile in weight to the 24th percentile in weight!! He is now 11 pounds at 8 weeks old! And smiled at all the doctors... even the guy mommy wasn't a big fan of!! Lol

I managed to loose my damn phone at the apt. I am pretty sure someone stole it.  Fun stuff!  Going through major smart phone withdrawals!
