6 months

Tate goes in Thursday for his 6 month checkup so I'll update you then with his height/weight stats.  But I will say we are a little worried about his weight gain.  I took him in for a weight check 2 weeks ago and he was up to 13 pounds, 13 ounces.  Good considering how tiny he started out as but it was a gain of 11 ounces in a month, which is on the low side for an average weight gain.  The nurse said not to be too concerned yet and we'd see where he was at at his 6 month checkup.  So we are hoping he will be up to 14 pounds 8 ounces.  That's what the nurse thought the doctor would like to see. I have been concentrating more on his nursing, trying to get him to eat longer each time.  Sometimes he'll just eat for 2-3 minutes and be done.  And he doesn't fuss or act hungry till 2-3 hours later.  But I have found that if we sit somewhere quiet (i.e. - keep Hudson out of the room!) he does nurse much longer.  So he just can't have too many distractions.  I guess watching Big Brother is more important to him than filling his tummy!
