Lily had her regular check-up today. She is doing great! Her pediatrician is very happy with her growth and her weight gain. She has all these cute baby rolls starting to show up. She is getting heavier to hold and definitely feels more solid. She weighed 8 lbs 7 oz today (50th percentile for her age) and was 21.25 inches long (75th percentile for her age). She is eating mostly formula these days but still nurses for comfort and snuggles with Mommy. The pediatrician says that whatever breast milk she gets from me is beneficial for her. So we will keep on nursing and then bottle feeding.
Theresa bought us a book that some of her work contacts swear by- the Baby Sleep Solution. It claims to be able to teach your baby to sleep 12 hours a night by 12 weeks of age. While that seems a bit severe to me, it does have a bunch of good tips/ideas for creating good sleep habits in baby. Brian and I are going to start it this week- wish us luck! If I can just get her to realize that 2-4 AM is not playtime I will be happy. :)
Below are some pictures from this last week.
