2 Month Check-Up

Aubrey was a happy and alert before her appointment.

 

Poor girl didn't know what she was in store for...SHOTS! 3 shots to be exact and one drinkable vaccine. I didn't take a picture of her after getting her shots like I did Natalie because her scream was super high-pitched and her face turned beet red!  Instead, I gave her a bottle of milk I had pumped this morning and she calmed down quickly.

Aubrey's 2 month stats:

Weight: 10.9 lb (between 25 and 50 percentile)
Length: 23 in (between 50 and 75 percentile)
Head Circumference: 14.5 in (below 5th percentile)

We saw Dr. Lito today instead of his wife. He thought Aubrey should have been gaining more weight than she is, especially considering her length and with her spitting up still and crying a lot he wanted to put her on some medicine to help with acid reflux. However, Natalie was 23 in and 0.8 pounds lighter and she didn't have to be put on medicine, but she also wasn't as gassy or spit up as much as Aubrey does.

So, Aubrey is now on Prilosec 2 times a day, once before morning feeding and once before evening feeding. She doesn't have to go back to the doctor for 2 months, so hopefully this will help her.

I can just hear my grandma saying, "A bird is going to poop on that lip." Haha...pouty face!

Shots take a lot out of a girl!

Yesterday, Aubrey cried ALL.DAY.LONG!  Nothing could make her happy except for if you held her facing out and put pressure on her belly. She also ate a TON yesterday. Just to give a little perspective, she averages eating about 80-90 minutes during the day and yesterday she at for 116 minutes total!

She looks so bald on top in this picture with the way the sun was hitting her...haha!

Poor Natalie, Mommy's time was completely consumed with a very fussy sister! However, Natalie was on excellent behavior. She has been such a good little girl lately! Now I'm going to jinx myself after saying that...haha!

Just chillin' with her baby

Her legs look so long and skinny in this picture.

Our BIG baby :)

 I was SO glad when Bobby got home yesterday and I was able to leave the house and go to Zumba (which kicked my butt)!  I keep telling myself I need to photograph and document my weight loss progress so it will hopefully be of some kind of motivation to me, but with a baby only wanting to be held to sleep or be calm, I'm finding it hard to have motivation to get out of this recliner because the peace and quiet is amazing at the moment!
