1 month appt

ok adley finally had her 1 month appointment. the dr had been out of town so we had to wait an extra week.

anyways, she was 11lbs and 22.5 inches. in the 75-90 percentile. i just have big kids!!!! she is all around healthy, but does have some cradle cap and acne. he said once we get her head cleared up her face will also clear up and be fine, i hope so. other then that he said we could try some gas drops to see if that helps with her fussiness at night. we will see if that works, i wanted to try them but wasn't sure if she was too young.

nothing else was really discussed, she got one shot and cried..but not too long.

all in all we have a healthy baby!

1 month

ahh our little chunky monkey is 1 month old! boy it has gone fast, i feel like even faster then with kinsley. life is just so much busier now!

adley is doing wonderful. she is beginning to smile and i have a few pictures to post of that...so cute. i think i have decided she has my eyes and that is what makes her look just a little different then kinsley. her cheeks are huge too. just about everyone even strangers comment on her cheeks!

nursing is not going that great. better then with kinsley, because i don;t have all the infections, but still very painful. i am still hoping it will get better but we will make it thru regardless.

so far i have very few worries about adley. altho i do think she has reflux and we will discuss that with the dr next week at her appt.

so far she is handling her big sister pretty good., she rarely cries when attacked!!! kinsley just loves her so much, but is just a bull in a china shop!

not much else to report on. we are doing pretty well and made it thru month 1!!!! now i just hope month two doesn't go so fast. my last baby is growing up to fast! brandon says when i want the next baby we can just get a puppy since i don;t have to birth that!!!!!

Kinsley is one month old!!!!!!!

our photo shot at home, 1 month old...working on that head control!!! Kinsley seems to really like tummy time and has no complaints so far!

WOW!! i can't even believe that Kinsley is already one month. She is starting to smile, and slowly figuring out a schedule. Overall we are so lucky to have such a good little baby girl. Kinsley has been so patient though out my breast feeding issues. she takes a bottle great for us and has also gone back to the breast with minimal trouble. she cries when she is hungry or tired and other then that she just likes to be held and to hang out with mom and dad. i still get so excited that i am finally a mom. brandon is a natural dad and is so wonderful with kinsley. we look forward to watching her grow more and more, i just hope it doesn't all go by as fast as this first month did!

1 month appt

we had Kinsley's 1 month appt. yesterday. the doctor said she looks good and is nice and healthy. she weighed 10 lbs. 6oz. (75 percentile) and was 22 inches long 55 percentile). her head is now 15 inches.

not much else to say about that, we had a non eventful appt.

SMILES
they asked if Kinsley was occasionally smiling yet...it was funny cause i just said the other day that i thought she was smiling on purpose. she does smile sometimes and it is great, they are still very few and far between but they are happening!!!! we have at least one on camera i will post later.


BREASTFEEDING
i have started breastfeeding again, we started the other day with every other feeding and now i am doing every feeding, i am still not healed all the way but i figured if pumping hurt the same as feeding her then i would rather just feed her. i am still on meds ad they still don;t know why i am not responding to them as i should be. hopefully this will all clear up soon. i am using a nipple shield right now and i am pretty sore, i can't seem to get her on deep enough. we are both still learning, and i am lucky to have such a patient little girl.

Tomorrow is officially one month!!! can you believe it?
