Harper visited the Pediatrician today and we all got some great news!
Weight: 7lbs, 2oz
Length: 20 inches
This means she's gained 2 lbs since birth and has grown 2 1/2 inches!!! Her doctor was so pleased!!!! Other than diaper rash, everything else looks great! She's obviously still small compared to other babies her age (she's in the 10th percentile for weight), but the doctor still says that she should be pretty much caught up by 6 months.
And more great news for Jon and I - we can extend her night feedings to 5 hours!! YIPPEEE!!!! We had been on a 3-hour feeding schedule all night and day. We were managing pretty well since we were alternating each night feeding between the two of us, but it got tough this week when Jon went back to work and I took over exclusively so he could sleep. WOW, that really wore me out.
She's our BIG girl, and she's doing SO WELL!!!

That's great - here's my question - do you get to have a snack every 5 hours? Seems fair to me.
