Milo is in the 90th percentile for both length and weight... but that's no surprise to us. We know he's a big boy! Milo checked out just fine. He's perfectly healthy. He'll get his first vaccination in another month... so today was still a pretty easy appointment. Our pediatrician did say he should be sleeping about 20 hours in a 24 hour period. Nathan and I both laughed at that. This kid does NOT sleep 20 hours a day. Milo sleeps much more like 14-15 hours a day. But that seems to be enough for him. He sleeps when he needs to... and if he isn't tired... I can't make him sleep.

As far as the tongue tie issue, she didn't seem to think he was. But I'm still going to get a second opinion from a doctor who is the doctor if tongue tie is suspected. I don't think it is severe, but I really think it is the source of our breast feeding troubles. If this doctor confirms our pediatricians thoughts, then I'll accept it. There is a reason we are still having breast feeding issues (clamping) and I am going do my best to figure out why and how to fix it.

Aside from that... all is well with our baby boy. Although he is still being called a girl all the time. I swear I dress him in boys clothes and colors. We just tell ourselves its because he's just so pretty. :)
