We made it to 10!

I always said I couldn't wait till Reed weighed more than a typical newborn could, well...we did it! Reed just weighed in at 10 lbs & 9 1/2 ounces! The nurse must've thought I was crazy when I was escatic to see those numbers on the scale. Yay for Reed! No wonder I'm eating everything in the house, he's taking it all out of me. We went to the Pediatrician on March 3rd for his 2 month appointment and he weighed 8lbs and 6 ounces, it's March 29th, not even a whole month later and he gained more than 2lbs. :-) Can't believe he'll be 3 months old on Wednesday.

I also thought he might have a milk protein intolerance. I gave up dairy for 2 weeks to see if this helped. That was not easy, especially when you're cooking for someone else. Turns out, he most likely does not have an intolerance and might just get an upset tummy from lactose. I no longer have to cut all dairy out, just maybe limit it, but I can have it again, phew! You always want what you can't have...I had the most intense craving for frozen yogurt in those two weeks. Can't wait to get my hands on some of that, even though this isn't something I eat often! You wouldn't believe how dairy is in everything. Forget about going out to eat. (Congrats again to Katie G. for flirting with Veganism for 6 wks, sounds easier than it is and I just did dairy). 

My "maternity leave" is slowly slipping away, I'm still working part time right now and return full time on April 19th....I'm dreading it as I am really enjoying my special days with Reed.
