4 Weeks Old

Svea-today you are 4 weeks old and it's Mommy's due date. Today marks when I would have been 40 weeks with you and I remember hoping that you would come a "little" early, or right around my due date....surprise! You've had a tough week with what we think is some acid reflux. We brought you in yesterday to the dr. and the good news is you are now up to 8lbs. 5 oz! You are growing like a weed! We now have some medicine to help with your discomfort you experience at night making it impossible to get no more than a half an hour of sleep at a time. It generally takes awhile to start working so mom and dad are praying this works so all of us can get some sleep. Your Grandma Beth is here this week and she has been helping us out as well. You are still in newborn diapers and mostly newborn clothes. There are still a few preemie outfits you fit in, but they are numbered. One funny thing you do on your play mat is grab at the rings and pull and pull and pull....it seems like you are trying to pull them down you pull so hard. I wasn't going to do a 4 week post since you'll be 1 month in a few days, but I had to share how well you are growing! I wonder if you would have weighed what you weigh now had you been born right now?
