1 week old!

It's hard to believe my baby boy is already a week old today! Jace is doing great and he is so sweet. We had a doctor's appointment the day after we came home, he was 7 lb 15 oz, and she sent him to the hospital to get a bilirubin level check for his jaundice. It was 11.3 so we had to go back the next day to check it again. It was 12.3. It wasn't high enough for phototherapy and we have another appointment this Friday to check him out. He isn't looking as yellow now, his pretty color is coming back.

Jace doesn't cry very much, and all he does is sleep and eat. He loves to cuddle and be held but he LOVES his bouncy seat. We have to keep mittens on him because his hands stay at his face and he claws at it.

I'm doing great 1 week postpartum. I got on the scales this morning and I'm 15 pounds less than I was before I got pregnant. I had some cramping that got pretty bad (as bad as contractions during labor) but that's gone away now. I don't remember having that with Avaree, but they said it gets worse after every baby.

We are all enjoying our Little Man and can't get enough of him!
