Amy's Diary Entries

Diary Navigation:

October 11, 2000


During the past week, Sam's appetite for solid foods has increased dramatically. I was with him 11 uninterrupted days, and he nursed all the time, but also wanted more of other foods. He feels heavier, and we're curious how much he weighs now. My guess is that he is a little over 21 pounds -- still tiny according to everyone else. He is so perfectly proportioned, though. He is perfect, period.

He has had cradle cap terribly, though. It really bothers him. Sometimes he scratches it so much he causes it to bleed. The doctor told us to use Head & Shoulders every two or three days for a few weeks and see if that helps. It does seem to help for about one day after we use it, but then it returns as bad as ever.

Last night, Sam had a terrible cough during the night. It sounded like a very productive cough, and sometimes he even choked. It was strange, though, because this morning after he woke up, the cough all but disappeared. He is perfectly healthy today.

One of Sam's favorite words lately is "naked!" It is so funny -- the fewer clothes he has on, the happier he is! I have to run. I've skipped my fitness class at the YMCA for a week now, and I really want to go tonight.
