Today, Mark went back to the pediatrician to be re-weighed. They wanted to make sure he was regaining his birth weight. He weighted 7 lbs 9 oz, which is up one ounce from last time. That's good news, but the nurse said they like to see them gaining about an ounce a day, and he's a couple of ounces behind schedule. So they decided to supplement him with a little formula. Joanna was a bit disappointed about that, but we'll do what the doctor says. They just want to supplement him until he regains his birth weight.

Supplementing with formula is extremely disappointing, I know. I have no doubt Mark will prove to be a good eater and will be off the formula in no time! Go Mark!

I know that's a slight disappointment, but very normal. You all are doing great!
