One Month

Calvin you are one month old! My how this month has flown by!

One Month Stats:

Weight: 5 lbs 11 oz (0%)

Length: 19.5 in (3%)

Head Circumference: 13.6 in (4%)

Clothes: Calvin is wearing preemie and newborn clothes. He is outgrowing preemie clothes in length but a lot of newborn is still too big!

Eating: You are eating on demand, usually every three hours. You  nurse 3-4 times a day and eat fortified breast milk 3-4 times a day.

Playtime/Activities: You made it home for your one month birthday! There wasn't a whole lot of playing in the NICU so we look forward to introducing toys and books to you. You did make it to church for Christmas Eve which was a big outing and celebrated Christmas.

Sleep: You came home on the typical NICU three hour schedule so we will see how long that lasts. Most of the day you are asleep and just wake up to eat. And even then, we have to wake you up if its been 4 hours since you last ate.

Development: My sweet boy who still should be in my womb :) You are rooting, sucking, eating, breathing and swallowing which are all major accomplishments for you!
