So the doctor finally called me back 3/4/09 and said that he was very happy with Lily’s weight gain and when I asked if we should increase the amount of formula he said that wasn’t necessary. Yippie. The less formula we give her the happier I am. He also said to get her weighed again in 2 or 3 weeks to make sure she’s still gaining.
Oh and he told me she’s in the 1 to 2 percentile for her weight, when we were there for the 2 month check up she was in the 3-4 for length and 9-10 for head size.
We just have a very tiny girl. She’s 10 1/2 weeks old and still wearing newborn size clothing. This is all fine with me, I’m in no hurry for her to grow up.

I took Lily to the doctor’s office to get weighed today.  8 lbs 3 oz.  That’s a 5 ounce increase in 11 days.  We have been giving Lily 2 to 3 ounces of formula every day.  We are going to increase that to 3 to 4 ounces a day probably.  I’m still waiting on the doctor’s call to see if we need to do anything else.  Also my favorite nurse is going to check with a couple of people to get suggestions on fattening up my milk.

Last night Lily had her first ever scream-free bath.  (This is a picture from a couple of weeks ago).  It was great.  She and I took the bath together and I made the water a slight bit warmer then I used to use.   I don’t know if these things made the difference or she is just growing up.  Whatever it was I hope it keeps up.
