my big boy

LOL - he was 10 lbs at birth. And he was 10 days late. I asked the ped if

my diet which is somewhat high in fat would affect his weight gain and she

said, no, it would not. Even so, I think I will try to eat a little more

healthily. He's outgrowing clothes and diapers! I can't keep up!

YES you CAN!! Try to buy clothes with more room to grow, and not clothes

made by weight. the 0-6 month clothes are more forgiving... as are

two-piece outfits.

Ill never forget when had a massive growth spurt around his second

month... a little one-piece sleeper that my SIL gave us was one of my

favorites... One day I put it on him (had just pulled it out of a laundry

basket) and headed for my neighbors house who was going to watch him. She

lifted him up into the air, and his poor little feet couldnt strecth out!

His knees were bent and his toes were curled up in it. I swear he had just

worn it the week prior, too! It was really funny.

did something similar... but around his first bday. I was nursing

him in my lap at the computer before bedtime. I looked down at his feet

and they were purplish, and I thought maybe cold. When I looked closer,

his nightie was strangling his ankles they had gotten so fat! I had to cut

the legs up the seam -- cause there was no way I was waking him! lol
