Benjamin is 1 month old. We’ve decided that November is not the best time to have a baby. With the holidays and flu season, its a little bit more stressful than other times of the year. We enjoyed the visits from family for Thanksgiving. Benjamin (and mom mostly since she had to feed him) spent 2 nights and 3 days in the hospital due to “respiratory distress”. He was tested for RSV and pneumonia but it must have just been a bad cold. He did do some breathing treatments and was on oxygen for part of the time, but mostly they just monitored him. It was pretty nice to stay in the brand new children’s hospital and test out all the new features (movies on demand and internet access from the room).
Other than that, he is very healthy and eating a lot. He is close to 12 lbs. Hannah weighed 12.6 lbs at two months! We are starting to get into a night-time routine. He will sometimes go 4 hours between feedings, but he still eats hourly when he is awake. As always, pics in our photo album.
Min Happy one month Benjamin!
