Went well. Drew is growing quite nicely. He's up to the 15th percentile for weight (13 lbs 3 oz) and 75th percentile for length (25.75 inches). His head circumference is 44cm (95th percentile). He got a few shots and was more upsets that we took the bottle away than he got stuck.
He is now rolling over both ways on his own. He thinks that it is so much fun to end tummy time within 30 seconds of us starting it. He is getting quite strong with his neck control.
We have now entered the world of teething. He's been chewing on his hands for awhile and fussy at night every so often. I noticed last night a small white tooth poking through his lower gum. The poor little guy is not happy about the teething process. And I don't blame him!
We've been told that we can start solids somewhere around month 5 or 6. We haven't decided when we are going to start.
He's still a lot of fun. It's neat watching him figure things out.

What a year!
A year ago today (the date) I had my IUI which resulted in Drew.
Will have a longer update next week after the little man's 4 month appointment

Latest Update
It's been awhile since the last post. Drew is now 14.5 weeks old and I've gone back to work. Which of course means he started daycare. Both of us are doing well with our new arrangement. I was ready to go back and Drew's making a ton of friends.
Drew is definitely over 12 pounds now. The past few days he has tried to roll over. He can get almost all the way. He has a tendency to get stuck on his left shoulder. He'll get there soon enough. He also tried to fling himself backwards out of my arms this past weekend. He scared himself and me.
We have also had our first (and probably not the last) ER visit. Shortly before he was 3 months, he came down with a bit of a fever. He had caught a virus, nothing major thankfully. He did very well despite having to get an IV put in. Both Mike and I did well and were able to help calm Drew down afterwards.
I have gone ahead and applied to be a milk donor. I'm waiting for the approvals before I can free up some freezer space. It is kinda nutty how much I'm producing. I averaged 50 ounces a day for the month of August.
Our next adventure is to purchase a bigger car for me (and one that has less miles on it!). Hopefully that will be this weekend.
