Max's Two Week Checkup
Max had his two week check up today with Dr. Curry, and everything looks great. Max is growing like a weed. He's up to 9 pounds 4 oz (95th percentile for baby boys), is 21 inches long (95th percentile), and his head measurement is off the charts at 15 inches (greater than 97th percentile). Ideally a baby will be back to his or her birth weight at two weeks (since they typically lose a bit of weight after birth). Max not only got up to his birth weight (7 lbs 15 oz), he surpassed it by a pound and 5 ounces (which shouldn't be all that surprising given that he wants to eat ALL the time)! Looks like he might give Scarlett a run for her money after all. He still seems so tiny (and he still has his signature skinny chicken legs), but I think you just forget how little newborns are until you hold one.
