This morning was a rough one: crying and waking us up every hour or so from 12:00 to 05:00 before we all got about 4 hours of uninterrupted sleep. Our baby pooped a lot during that early morning time, but until the evening, he hadn't peed at all. We paged our midwife who graciously came to assuage our concerns. She weighed him on a spring scale and determined that he was around 8 lbs 1 oz which is approximately 2 ounces heavier than his discharge weight. Mary and I also counted the diapers which reassured us that he was actually voiding enough.
So, at the end of the day, everything's alright with our baby. He just has a different schedule than we're used to!
