Isaac - 3 Week Update

4/10/2013

 
Isaac is now three weeks old! 

Growth:  At birth he was 8 lb. 15 oz. and 20 in. long, and now he is 9 lb. 7 oz. and 21 in. long.  He has outgrown his newborn clothes and is in 0-3 month clothes.

Allergy:  We've discovered Isaac is allergic to Zinc Oxide - the basic ingredient in diaper rash creams.  Since then we've been avoiding Desitin and only using A&D and a special prescription cream three times a day.  He's doing much better, but his little bum his still recovering.

Sleeping:  Isaac is a great sleeper.  He usually only wakes up twice a night to quickly nurse and then goes right back to sleep.  He can sleep through anything (a necessity when you have a 4-year-old sister and 5-year-old brother running/playing/shouting/squealing around you all the time :).

Temperament:  Isaac is a super easing going baby.  He rarely fusses - usually just when he's hungry, tired, and occasionally if he just wants to be held.  He also fusses during diaper changes, sponge baths, and if he's taken outside and it's windy - basically he doesn't like to be cold.  He loves to be snuggled which Daddy and Mommy love too. :)

Eating:  Isaac is a fabulous nurser.  He usually eats every 3-4 hours, and he takes a bottle easily if Daddy is watching him while Mommy is out.

Almost every time after nursing Isaac gets the hiccups for around 20 minutes.  He's such a brave little trooper through them though. :)
