One Week Old Today!!! Check-up #2


Addison is perfect, but we already knew that :) Her weight is up yet again...we are now .5oz from our birth weight at 7 days old. Her jaundice is also pretty much gone...she was supposed to get another blood draw today to check her numbers, but Dr. Rhodes took one look and said "Oh, she looks great. Don't worry about the blood work!" YAY! We go back in a week for our 2 week appointment!

She is such a good baby already. She has settled into somewhat of a routine (those of you who know me, know that I am the opposite of "routine") She is nursing excellently every 2 1/2 to 3 hours and sleeps great. This is the first baby who naps in her own bed during the day! LOL She does sleep with us at night...wouldn't have it any other way :)

My engorgement is much much better. I can nurse without drowning Addison at this point, but i'm still pumping each side 1x at some point in the day. I guess too much milk is a good problem to have!

More pics to come...
