Jackson 7 weeks!

Well, it's hard to believe Jackson is already 7 weeks old! He is doing very well! In an earlier post, I wrote about the doctor wanting Jackson to cut back on his formula intake......well, Jackson said "no way mom"! He is drinking 5 ounces every 4 hours and if I try and give him only 4 ounces, he is not happy...... and let's mom know it! He is no longer spitting or throwing up, so mom and dad have to just keep on keeping him upright for at least a half hour. Sometimes mom and dad just don't have time to sit up with him for a half hour, but when we do......he throws up everything! So, we now know that no matter where we are we have to stay an extra half hour after he eats. He is sleeping through the night now, so mom is getting plenty of rest. He sleeps 8 hours at night, so mom tries to not feed him till 11 pm so mom doesn't have to wake up till 7. Sometimes that just doesn't work out, but at least mom is getting 8 good hours of rest each night! Thanks Jackson!

So neat that Jackson is sleeping so well! Drew must have taught Jackson well.
I have to say that the throwing up thing sounds exactly like your pregnancy with Jackson. You would get sick if you moved around too soon after eating too!
