We took Brady to our pediatrician for his one-week well check, as our pediatrician did not have rights at the hospital where he was born. The main purpose of this visit was to check for jaundice and for a weight check. There were no signs of jaundice and see below for his weight!
--Here are his stats:
--
Weight: 8 lbs 2.5 oz (50th percentile)-- weight at birth was 8 lbs 1 oz - already back to his birth weight plus 1 lb 1.5 oz!! The doctor was very pleased as most babies do not "re-achieve" their birthweight until around two weeks, especially breastfed babies!! Obviously he is eating well!
--Length: 21 1/4 inches (75th percentile)-- length at birth was 21 inches.
--Head: 14 1/4 centimeters (50th percentile) -- head at birth was 14 centimeters.

She checked him over and everything looks great! We go back for another well-check at 1-month!
