:nice: Congrats!!!!!!!!!!! :beer:

don't spoil him!! let him cry it out, you will be happy that you did!! my kids heard noise, yelling, all kinds of stuff, and slept thur all, no quite the baby sleeping here!!

He's actually been pretty good so far as most everytime he has cried he has either had gas, needed burped, or had a dirty diaper. He does wake up about every 2-3 hours to eat though, but the pediatrician said he should be feeding that often since my wife is breastfeeding him. Just sucks as it takes him almost an hour to empty her out, then another 30 minutes to get him burped, and before you know it it is time to do it all over again.

:beer: :beer: congratulations Therm you and mum must be very proud and relieved

Me too!

I used to wake up that often to pee, but not to eat. I found last night though if I give him just a small bottle after he breastfeeds, he will sleep for 4 hours or so. He is slightly underweight, so he needs the extra anyways.

They always loose some weight after they are born.. It's normal. And although there is a target that doctors like to see, as long as he's healthy I wouldn't worry too much about his weight. So long as he's eating well and crapping and burping like he should he'll be fine. Don't let the crying get you down.. that's pretty much the extent of their vocabulary for right now. Pretty soon he'll learn how to laugh, and then the next thing they learn is "Hey dad, can I have the car keys?" Enjoy him as a baby now, because in an eyeblink he's going to be a father of his own.

Great news! Congratulations and best wishes to Patrick, Mom and yourself.

Good Job Ya'll!!

I find myself agreeing with Destroyer again. At least he is healthy and not collicky or something. All that will pass in a little while.

He was 10 days early which I know also is part of why he is so light, be he isn't really small, and he is one strong baby. He's got stuff going in one end, and flying out the other, so that part is good. And he already has a little laugh every once in awhile. And the chances of him getting the BURB keys are slim to none, the wifes car will be fair game.
