The Big Weigh-In

Great news today! Nikos went from 22 pounds, 2 ounces at his last appointment to 23 pounds, 7 ounces! That bumps him up to the 25th percentile for weight, which the nurse practitioner was happy with. Hooray-- now I can stop stressing about this! Truth be told, we didn't really do anything different this past month, other than constantly offer him food. He still ate at his regular meal/snack times, for the most part, and still ate pretty much the same things (with a few new discoveries). I think that the nurse practitioner was totally overreacting with the whole "failure to thrive" label, and I'm glad it's behind us now. Hallelujah! Way to go, kiddo!
