It's Saturday morning. My Mom comes over to watch the boys and we're headed back to Evergreen to see if Eli is still losing weight. We are starting to get concerned at this point. He is way to lethargic and he isn't feeding like he should be.
The net result of our second visit to the Lactation Clinic is Eli has lost more weight and our Pediatrician wants to see Eli this morning as soon as possible. We head straight from Evergreen to Mill Creek to visit our Pediatrician, Dr. Stephen Shlafer, MD. The boys have been going to Dr. Shlafer since we moved back to Washington in 2007. He's absolutely fantastic with kids. We see Dr. Shlafer and he tells us not to worry. All kids lose weight from their birth weight and some are just slower to rebound. Eli is pink with little to no jaundice and Dr. Shlafer says his heart and lungs sound great. Dr. Shlafer tells us to bring Eli back on Monday for a weight check before the clinic opens. We head home somewhat reassured but still a little worried.
