Casen's 2 month well- check

I took Casen in today for his 2 month well-check. He's my hefty little guy. Casen has always seemed to be more of a "thick chested" kinda guy to me. Just like his daddy. Cache on the other hand is just my tall and lean guy. Casen seems to be taller than I thought though. I think his chunkiness must offset the looks of how tall he actually is. Well, at least to me. :) Drumroll....

weight:  12 lbs. 3 oz. = 65%tile

height:  23 3/4 in. = 75%tile

(he's gained 5 LBS. since June and remember he was only born May 30th!!! His pediatrician thought that was so great and so did I!)

Casen has plenty of little rolls. It's the first thing his pediatrician mentioned when he first saw him, and said they are a good sign you can tell he's getting plenty to eat. The little rolls around his wrists and thighs, etc. He didn't have to tell me that though. I've been exclusively nursing Casen, so the only thing he has ever had is my milk. I've always had more than enough milk, and I can happily say I've noticed within the past two weeks my milk is FINALLY starting to even out. I'm so happy about that. Sigh. There is relief. I've always had plenty of milk to nurse at least two babies, and I've only got one to feed! It's nice to not be in so much pain anymore and not have to pump every now and then. I was always making more than my baby needed, so it's nice now that I'm making just exactly what he needs. It's SO much more comfortable for me. Also, I've noticed within the past week Casen has been sleeping more through the night. My doctor mentioned they tend to do that once they hit the 12LBS.-16LBS range. So he told me to go ahead and just let him keep sleeping now that he's hit 12lbs and he's got a nice reserve on him too. :) I wasn't sure about him sleeping through the night without a feeding, so I'm glad I know now it's okay since he's a hefty 12 pounder. I'm new at the whole nursing thing and I would never want my baby to go too long without a feeding! I'm glad Casen has decided to start sleeping through the night now. I'm even MORE glad about getting a full night's rest! WOOHOO! 

Casen checked out well. He's getting plenty to eat. (Which I have to say I'm so proud about, since Cache said no to breastfeeding and I wasn't pushing it myself with him either.) Casen is growing and gaining well. His eyes check out good, good heartbeat, good lungs, good hips, good legs, good muscle tone. He's a very strong little guy and he's very very happy all the time too. I'm so grateful he's such a happy boy. Casen smiles all the time, simply because he's a happy baby. We love you Casen.
