At birth this little guy was weighed at 7lbs 14 oz, the same as his big brother. We were all a little surprised as the delivery room wagers all came in around 6 1/2 - 7 lbs. At his 24 hr checkup nurses were alarmed when they thought he had lost 14% of his birth weight. The only logical conclusion was that his birth weight was incorrect and we have been tracking his weight gain fastidiously ever since.
Fortunately, the littlest bejos boy is a good eater and has been gaining weight steadily. This week he weighed in at 7lbs 8oz, perhaps exceeding his birth weight of "about 7 lbs".
He still has chicken legs like his big brother and I predict that yet again I will be deprived of a chubby chunky-thighed baby.
