We had our two week checkup today and we are happy to say that the jaundice is gone. We are also proud to say that he gained a record amount of weight in the last week. Only 7 days ago he weighed in at 8 pounds 7 ounces, today he was 9 pounds 12 ounces!!! The doctor asked us what he has been eating, and when we told him it is just breast milk, he laughed! He seriously thought that we have been adding the formula as we did the first couple of days before the milk came in, to fight jaundice. But no, just the milk... Last week ha also gained a lot (but that was with formula): from Thursday to Monday he went from 7 pounds 9 ounces to 8 pounds 7 ounces, which was 1 ounce more than his birth weight. Which means he beat his brother - it took him 7 days to go back to his birth weight. Does this mean we are going to have another michelin man? Luka was always in the 90% by weight...
