Connor is now 7 week old, and he had his two-month doctor appointment today. He has grown so well that he has almost doubled his birth weight and has caught up to a similar weight and height that Logan was at 2-months old (just with a little smaller head
=) ).
Weight = 13 lb 1.5 oz (92 percentile..previously 18%)
Height = 24 inches (93 percentile..previously 63%)
Head circumference = 15.75 inches (65 percentile..previously 48%)
The only concern we had for the doctor was Connor’s frequent spit ups. The amount is usually not a lot, but we definitely can’t go without a burping cloth at each feeding. Since Connor is not showing any discomfort and he is gaining weight well, I was just told to burp him more frequently. Everything else also checked out well.
After the doctor visit, we proceeded to the Injection Clinic for his vaccinations (3 injections and 1 oral). He certainly did not like the injections; he screamed and his face turned bright red from the crying. For the next few hours, Connor was more drowsy and slept more, but every time when he woke up he got so upset again. He would cry so hard that he could barely catch his breath. He was even too mad to drink milk; the only way to calm him down was by constant bouncing on the exercise ball. Poor little Connor! He finally returned to his usual self this evening.

Wow! Connor’s getting BIG! Marcus was only 12lb 8oz and 22.5″ at his 2 month check up. He’s definitely catching up.
