how much weight gain?

Just curious- How much weight did your preemie gain in the first month? Ben had his one month appointment today and he is up from his birth weight of 4 lbs 5 oz to a whopping 7lbs even.  I thought that was a pretty awesome gain!

    I first read this and thought...wow, that's alot!  Then I remembered that my LOs basically had the same gain.  DS went from 5,5 at birth to 7,11; DD went from 4,14 at birth to 6,15 at their one month check up.  I go next week for the 2 month check up.  I will be surprised if DS is not nearly 10 pounds and DD is nearly 8, maybe 8 and a half.

    Great gain!  Keep it up baby!
