Caleb is 4 Weeks Old!

4 Weeks Old
Caleb Patrick is 4 Weeks Old!
Age: 4 Weeks
Weight: 10 lbs 14.1 oz
Clothing Size:  Mostly 0-3 months
Diaper Size:  Pampers Swaddlers Size 1
Feeding Schedule:  ~10 x's per day

Caleb's sleep is becoming a little more consistent.  He goes down for the night around 9 pm or so and then is up 2-3x's to nurse.  We have a good night time routine going - when he wakes, I get him up and nurse him.  Halfway through I burp him, change his diaper and reswaddle him then finish feeding him.  The break in between kind of wakes him back up and helps me make sure he gets enough to eat to so he'll sleep as long as possible.  He had one night that he went 5 hours between feedings but typically he has one stretch of 4 hours and then the rest are 2-3 hours apart.  Most mornings he sleeps till 7 or 8 but I've had a few early 6 am days.

Caleb is definitely eating enough as shown by his weight - he gained almost a pound last week!
