Today Wendy had an appointment with her pediatrician. They didn't do anything except weigh her and refill her medications. We also scheduled an appointment for her 4 month shots. It's amazing to think she's almost 3 months old already. What's even more amazing is the fact that she weighs 7lbs 4oz. I told you, she's thriving at home! Last Friday she only weighed 6lbs 12oz. I know she doesn't really weigh 7lbs 4oz because we didn't weigh her without clothes because the doctor's office was freezing, but I would say she is at least 7lbs.
She has been awake almost all day! She woke up about 9 or 10 to start getting ready for the doctor and the only time she has slept since then was in the car. Maybe she will sleep good tonight because we have to take a trip to Nashville tomorrow to go to the NICU graduate clinic. I really hope we both get some good rest tonight because it is exhausting taking a baby anywhere with a feeding pump and monitors. Hopefully tomorrow they will tell us she can go down to 26 calories of formula instead of 28. She's having a bit of a hard time adjusting to all formula- she's spitting up more than before and I feel like she has a lot more gas. Now I wish I had've kept pumping. I guess the most important thing is that Wendy is getting the nutrition she needs and growing.
