6 Week Check
Finlay had his 6 week check today at the GP. All was hunkydory, a small query about his left eye but apparently that will resolve. He's now 9lb 1oz, and growing fast! He flirted dreadfully with the doctor, smiling and gurgling and waving his arms and legs around. He even had the courtesy to wait til his nappy was back on to poo everywhere!! Wish he'd do that for us ;) I got the go-ahead to drive, so was able to join the NCT girls yesterday for a cuppa, which was nice.
On Monday, Finlay went to his first music group, which he really enjoyed. We had a visit from H & Anne at the weekend, and Finlay loved being played to by H on the piano. Sometimes the only thing that stops him crying is singing very badly out of tune, in the style of a Moog synthesizer!
Unfortunately Finlay has also suddenly developed a left-boob phobia, and bad colic. We've managed to fool him into still drinking off to the left boob by changing the position, but the colic has caused many sleepless nights. Of course when we took him to the health visitor, he behaved impeccably and drank perfectly.. guh! It's now luck of the draw as to whether he will eat properly or gulp-cry-gulp-cry, which is frustrating for us and him! Hopefully he will settle down soon.
