Is it typical for a mom of two children to forget about a Doctor's Appointment until about an hour before the appointment??? Needless to say I was racing around at the last minute to get ready for it. But the little one is thriving very well.
The doctor was very impressed with how much she is doing already - holding her neck and head very steady, she is SO social - loves to smile, and talk. She almost turned over for him (tummy to back) - he said that she just thinks she is 4 months old doing all these things. She is constantly moving all limbs when awake - never slowing down (watch out Michael Phelps!).
Here are her stats:
weight: 8lbs 15 oz (10th)
length: 22 3/4 inches (75th!!!!!)
Where did this come from????
He is worried about her weight, but due to her amazing reflux ability to spit up every few minutes, he gave me some advice - smaller, more frequent feedings! Just what every mother wants to hear - more time spent feeding! On the flip side, she did just sleep through the whole night last night!! WHOOHOO! She ate around 9 pm and I had to wake her at 6:15 this morning! She just might be a sleeper after all (we won't get exctied just yet though)!
Sidenote: I was just informed that long and lean babies are hypermetabolizers, also known as "Banana Babies". Kayley is a Banana Baby! Hold onto that for as long as you can girly!
