Public Health Nurse Visit

On Monday we had a public health nurse come to visit at the house, just to answer any questions we had and she would check Alexis out.

It was a really great meeting, she was super nice to start off with and she was able to answer all my questions (I had a half a sheet of paper of questions).  She weighed Alexis and we found that she is now 7 lbs. 10 oz. which is great.  She said baby's should be gaining an ounce a day, and so Alexis was right on target.  She was really please with everything and gave me some good advice since I am pumping and was feeling kind of guilty about it.  It really put my mind at ease that I knew Alexis was getting enough food and apparently growing like a weed!  By Saturday she could be 8 lbs already!!!!  It's so hard to believe!

I think Alexis is also going through a growth spurt these last couple of days, which they said is normal around the 2 week mark.  She has been wanting to eat more often and closer together compared to when she first came home.  Oh I wish she could stay this small forever!!!
