Missing Umbilical Cord

This morning we went to the pediatrician for Jonathan's second check-up visit. It's amazing how he is calm in the car and at the doctor's office while he was crying left-and-right just when we left home. I guess a sense of preserving good image is there at early age.

Interesting things I learned from the doctor:

• Baby is producing breast milk because of hormone transferred by breastfeeding. Gratefully, the doctor assured me that it would stop at some point.
• Bottlefeeding: Soy milk gives more gas to baby compared to regular lactose-milk. In contrast, mommy that drinks cow's milk (which is lactose) and breastfeed will give more gas to the baby.
• You can never overdose the baby with Mylicon

The doctor showed baby's umbilical cord was hanging by a thread. Sure enough, the next time we changed baby's diaper, the umbilical cord was gone.

Baby weighs 8lbs 2oz. and he has grown by 1in since his birth to 22in.
