2 month check up

Quick details on miss Lorelei. 2 mo check up stats: 20.9in (12th percentile) Liam was 21.5" at 2mo. 9lbs, 5oz (28th percentile) Liam was 10lbs, 12oz at 2mo). Size 1 diapers NB clothes (quickly outgrowing, better get in our new home QUICK so I can unpack her 0-3 clothes, especially pj's) Lorelei got her first cold last week Friday (thanks big brother!). She hasn't let it slow her down, she's been happy as can be and is recovering well, thankfully! Doc weighed her on Friday when she was seen for the cold. Then again yesterday for her checkup. She said they like to see babies gain 20-40g a day and Lorelei is averaging 50g a day. Way to grow! I did her shots at 6 weeks to give time for them to set in before putting her on the plane. She got dtap & rotavirus. She cried one second, I picked her up and she was fine. She slept after & didn't really get cranky anymore than usual. Tough & laid back girl! Lorelei has somewhat of a schedule. Eat around...

1 month old

Lorelei Rose is 1 month old. She wears a size 1 diaper (a bit big but not by much) and finally fits newborn clothes and some small 0-3 mo clothes. She LOVES to sleep, although between 11pm and 1am is a timeframe you can count on for a wake up. But she will sleep from 2am until 10am. She wakes to nurse 2x a night, if you can call it that--she just fusses a bit, I lay her next to me, she eats while I sleep and goes back to sleep! I never even really wake and I don't think she does either. I can't complain about that. Might become a bit more difficult for mommy with daddy moving to Hawaii, since he gets up with Liam at 7:30/8, but we'll figure it out! She lifts her head constantly and is very good about holding it up. She tracks things/people well (especially her DADDY!). Daddy's girl already. She is such a blessing. A real a sweetie pie. Quiet, content and well adjusted. Loves to be WARM, snuggling someone in a blankie! And there's ALWAYS someone willing to cudd...
