Monday 1st September
Today Hunter has his 2 week appt with the Maternal Health Nurse. He was weighed and is now 3.8kg and put on 200g in the last week which really pleased the nurse as it was right in the middle of the 100-300 range that they like to see. He has also grown 1cm since birth and is now 51cm and his head circumference is now 36.5cm so he's grown 0.5cm there too! After that we went and had lunch at the cafe in town with Paul and Diane and then we went out to their place to show Mum & Dad their kennels and all the greyhounds.
When Hunter cries for no reason at all (ie he's been fed, changed, burped, etc), Rob props him up in his arms and talks to him. He says stuff like "Have we had the calm talk today? We need to be calm. No crying. No bottle yet... so don't know what you're gonna do. Are we calm?" etc and just talks to him non-stop. Usually Hunter stops crying and stares up at Rob with the funniest wide eyed expression and purses his lips and just looks at him so intently. So today when Rob was talking to him, I got pictures of Hunter's expression!
