Sam has been home for almost 3 weeks. He is doing very well & we are adjusting, although I will say it seems like he has been home much longer than that!! I took him to the pediatrician on Sept 18 and he weighed 5lbs 12 oz. He had gained a little more than an ounce a day since he left the NICU. We had our one month appointment today and he weighed 7lbs 3 oz!! He just blazed right on through the 6 lb range. That means he gained 23 ounces in 14 days!! I couldn't believe it. I have been wondering when I could consider him a newborn as opposed to a preemie and today was the day. He is the size of an average newborn and is very healthy!! Here are a few pictures... (The last pic is horrible of the big boys, but at least you can see Sam's little face!)
