Alexis had her first doctors appointment today and it went very well, aside from the fact that she hates to be naked and I had to strip her down to her diaper (she was not pleased at all ... I'm sure everyone in the doctor's office heard her screaming!).
She is a little jaundice, but the doctor isn't too concerned about it because she is eating enough and seems content, they will continue to monitor this throughout her next couple of appointments. She also is back up, and a little over her birth weight. She currently weights 7 lbs. 5.5 oz. (every little bit helps) which we are quite happy over as I wasn't sure if she was getting enough food. I'm now pumping and bottle feeding her for the time being until we can get this whole breastfeeding thing underhand. My mom is going tomorrow to get some things the doctor suggested that would help with this.
Other than that, the doctor was please with her progress so far (she is only 4 days old) and everything looks good!
