One Month Checkup

Kylie had her one month checkup this week and she is growing beautifully! She is now 8 pounds 12 ounces and 21.5 inches long. The doctor says she looks wonderful and has great head control. We talked about the feeding issues and she says supplementing with a little bit of formula is nothing to be worried about. She also said that it is pretty normal for babies her age to still be waking up every 2-3 hours and usually when they hit 10 pounds is when they will start to stretch it out to about an 11/3/7 schedule. Then around 13 pounds is when they usually will drop the 3am feeding. She also said it was impressive that mommy was so skinny already, so that made me happy since I've been feeling not so confident about my body right now. I keep meaning to start working out again, it just seems like any time I have a few minutes while Kylie is sleeping I have to pump, or do a load of laundry, or unload the dishwasher, or oh shit I forgot to eat lunch again. Anyways, back to the appointment. Kylie got her second Hepatitis shot and she only screamed for a minute. When we take her back next month she will get the rest of her shots and hopefully get her ears pierced!
