Freddie is doing so well, he has put on 6 oz in a few days and now weighs 8 lbs. The health visitor has been over today and has took his length and head circumference measurements as well as weighing him. He is on the 9th centile line on 'boys weight' graph in the 'red book' (this is using his corrected age from his due date). He is almost on the 25th centile line for his length and the same for his head circumference.
Very pleased with his progress.
He is fitting nicely into newborn clothes now instead of early/tiny baby ones.
Freddie is trying to smile more and more and often pulls little faces when he's happy and awake with a full tummy!
To get in the Christmas spirit of giving Heart Link (East Midlands charity for children with congenital heart disease) are selling Christmas Tree tags for £1 with the opportunity to say thank you to a member of staff or a ward. If you want to add a tag to the tree ( Freddie was on the Children's Ward 30) you can send a message and donation to Heart Link, Freepost 24384, Leics, LE3 6ZJ. Please don't feel like you have to, your support to us has been invaluable.
lots of love
xx
