Baby Update

We saw the pediatrician on Monday, mostly just to have the wee munchkin weighed. She was a whooping 9 pounds at birth but a week later was down to 8 pounds, 7 ounces. The doctor seemed mildly concerned and suggested we have her "one month appointment" at 3 weeks instead. Some weight loss is to be expected, but that was still quite low a week after. I was far from worried. She did have a grumply couple days waiting for my milk to come in, but now she's happy and full and sleeping well, with chins popping up everywhere, and an obvious increase to her heft. So I wasn't too surprised that she had gained back her birth weight, and then some, weighing in at 10 pounds, 2 ounces!
