Weight gain, fortified milk, and poop!

The 11th was a good day for Noah, he continues to show signs of strength and growth. With weight gain of a whole ounce (total of 2 lb 0.5 oz), breast milk started to get fortified. Milk is now 24 calories fortified per feeding. Breast milk is normally 20 calories per ounce. Noah is receiving a total of 28 additional calories daily. Poop is now yellow not black, and there is volume.

Mommy's chest isn't this hairy!
The day had special significance for me, as it was the first opportunity I had to hold my little boy. It was the best experience of my entire life.
