The snow is really coming down here today. They are calling for 3-6 inches by tomorrow. Luckily, we have don't have to go anywhere. We are ready for lock-down. Things are canceled all over. The doctor's office called and canceled my appointment for tomorrow morning. I am glad I don't have to go out in it, but was looking forward to hearing that I am getting better. They just moved it to Friday.
Hayden is in his swing. I think he likes it, he falls asleep in it. So I guess that means he likes it. His nights seemed to have gotten much better. I think we finally are doing some things right. We wake him up during the day every 2-3 hours to eat and then let him tell us at night when he is hungry. Doctor's advice. I guess they know what they are talking about.
We went yesterday to see Dr. Comerci and Hayden gained a whole pound! He started at 7 lbs 8 oz, and was 6 lbs 14 oz at his last visit to the hospital. He now is up to 7 lbs 14 oz! He also grew 1/2 inch in length. He's really hard to measure. We have to help the nurse hold him down. His head grew also. He really hates when she measures his head. They use a thing that looks like a tape measure in a circle, and they slip it over his head. He really screams.
I was glad to hear all the good reports. Its hard to tell how much milk he is getting and I've been reassured that he is getting what he needs.
I think about him every second of every day. I want to make sure I am doing everything right. Probably that will be the case for a long, long time. This isn't the easiest thing I have ever done by far, but it is the best thing I have ever done.

Glad to hear the little man is growing strong!
The swing was our best friend for many, many months. If I could not get P. to sleep , we would just put her in the swing. (up till she out grew the weight and height restrictions. ) I miss it.
I am looking forward to meeting Hayden this week!
