Stats:
Just over 12 pounds (above the 95th percentile) and wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes.
Eating:
Clearly his rapid weight gain means he is eating, but he is somewhat blasé about the whole thing. Even if he has been asleep for 5 or 6 hours, he is in no hurry to eat when he wakes up. I often feel that I am coercing him into nursing, and it is only through my waking him and pushing the issue that we are able to squeeze 7 feedings into every 24 hour period.
Sleeping:
This kid likes to sleep - about 19 to 20 hours out of 24. He sleeps three long stretches at night: 9:30pm to 2ish am, 2:30am to 5am (when I wake him to eat), and 5:30am to 8am (when I again wake him to eat). During the morning and afternoon he is mostly just awake to eat (and he even sleeps through a lot of that time) and perhaps play on the floor for a couple minutes. Come evening, though, he gets his panties in a twist and spends a couple hours (from 7 to 9:30) fussing, fussing, fussing.
