Birth-weight and then some...
So we just did a quick stop in at the pediatricians office for a weigh-in (they let you come in and use the scale without an appointment, whenever you want).
The milestone that newborns are supposed to hit is to regain the weight they lost and be back to their birth-weight by 2 weeks old. Well, Pippa turned two weeks old last night, and this morning weighed in at an even 9 pounds, 0 oz. So she's already 3 ounces over her birth-weight. Doing the math from our last appointment, she's gained 6 ounces since Monday. So when we thought she was feeding often and well, we must have been right.
More photos to come soon.
