Sweet Baby Charlie

The first week at home has been a success. Charlie is doing great with feedings, especially now that my milk has come in.  We stopped supplementing with formula, and he is still satisfied at the end of a meal, so I know I'm doing my job. He has been having 6-8 wet and poopy diapers a day, which means he is getting what he needs. The first few nights were a little rough at night, it felt like I was getting no sleep at all, but even that has gotten WAY better. 2 nights ago he only woke up once to eat! For the most part he still wakes up 2 times to eat at night, but he is good at going back to sleep when he is done. The last few days I have woke up feeling rested, and I would say that is pretty good for the first week home. We go back to the pediatrician today so they can make sure he is gaining his weight back. I'm sure he will pass considering all the pooping and peeing going on. I'm excited to see how much he has gained back. We had our first photo shoot this morning, I think I will use one of these to send out birth announcements. I got some really good ones...
