First Visit to the Doctor

Braylen's first pediatrician appointment was November 15th. He was 17 days old. He weighed 8 pounds 3 ounces and was 20 1/4 inches long. He was in the 50th percentile in both categories. BUT....I got a talk about childhood obesity. What?!? Are you serious? There are lots of babies that weight more at BIRTH and my baby is 2 WEEKS OLD!! Our pediatrician was concerned that tiny little Braylen was gaining weight too fast. He had been eating 3oz of formula every 3 hours like clockwork since he was 2 days old. She told us we would re-evaluate at his 2 month check up. She is right about that- we will re-evaluate...re-evaluate finding a new pediatrician! :)

Our "obese" little baby boy!
