He was 8lbs 14oz at birth, but lost quit a bit waiting for my milk to come in.. took a good three or four days. Seemed like he was making up for lost time, and had gained 12 oz in 11 days . Dr said "he shouldnt be eating more than once every three hours, try to hold him off" LOL I just about fell off my seat laughing! It was the most I could do to get him to go TWO hours! He didnt really buy the "growth spurt" theory. Dante LOVES to eat!
