Bryson is 2 months today! Where has the time gone?! We went to his 2 month well-child doctors appointment today. Here are the stats:
Head: 15 1/2"
Height: 22" (20th percentile)
Weight: 10 lbs 4 oz. (between 20th and 25th percentile)
Hannah was always in the... negative percentile... so Bryson is HUGE! (ha, ha!) The doctor was so impressed with how well Bryson is holding his head up for his age. He's so strong! And even gave the doctor a little smile. (Do I sound like a proud mom?! He's already showing up the kids his age!...that is a joke... kind of!)
His head is a little flat on one side, so the doctor recommended an infant head bed. So hopefully we've caught that early enough and it will correct itself over the next couple of months.
I've stopped giving Bryson his reflux medication and he is still doing really quite well! We are trying to get him on somewhat of a schedule, at least at night. He's getting to were he won't fall asleep as easily and it often takes a lot of soothing and bouncing. At night we are trying to get him to go down between 8 and 9 pm. It's a toss up between keeping him up and feeding him right before I got to bed versus getting a couple hours to relax or get stuff done while both the kids are in bed! I've chosen the latter. Bryson's first stretch at night will usually be about 5 hours, but sometimes I'm lucky and get an extra hour... and sometimes its shorter.
We sure love our little guy. He's so apart of our family... but still can't believe he's already 2 months.

5 hours!? That's pretty darn good! LUCKY!!!
I am sure Bryson's head will be fine. Carter had a super flat mis-shaped head on one side in the back. We just used rolled up towels under his crib sheet and would help him strech his neck muscles a bit. Amber said she can show you how or tell you if you want.
BTW did you buy the infant bed head? How is it working? It looks nice.
We did buy it... it doesn't seem to work that well. Bryson still turns his head to the side... we'll see.
