18 Weeks


Caleb Patrick is 18 Weeks Old!

Age: 18 Weeks

Weight: 17 lbs 10 oz

Clothing Size: 3-6 months

Diaper Size: Pampers Swaddlers Size 3

Feeding Schedule: 6 - 8 x's per day

So on Satruday I tried two ounces of 'old' milk in Caleb's morning bottle and of course that night he proceed to wake up every three hours with HORRIBLE gas. Looks like this little man is going to remain dairy and soy intolerant for a while. Saturday was just the beginning of a rough, rough week. Caleb was up EVERY night at least once, if not twice. He was also eating a ton (averaging 35 oz a day!) so I believe it may be a growth spurt? Hopefully? Now that I'm only pumping, I can't keep up with that extreme amount so he had a bit of formula daily starting Tuesday. I probably had 40ish ounces of milk frozen but Caleb demolished that in just a few days.

Caleb seems to be eating pretty well too. He get's rice cereal at school around lunch time and then some more at home during dinner. On Wednesday we tried Oatmeal for the first time which he seems to like. I made him some sweet potatoes to try this week..

Also, as evidenced by the photo above, Caleb constantly has his hands in his mouth! He has a pretty bad rash on his cheeks from all the drool.
