The Girls First Doctor's Visit




We had our first doctor's appointment today. They are 6 days old!!! The visit went well. The girls have not lost any more weight (which is typical) from their hospital discharge weight. Sylvia weighed 5lbs9oz and now weighs 5lbs10oz...almost regaining back to her old fighting weight at birth. Evelyn's hospital discharge weight was 5lbs5oz and now she's 5lbs7oz. The Pediatrician called Evelyn a little Turkey during the exam, it was so cute. She was happy with their overall condition and we are due back in 2 weeks. Attached are a few pics of getting them ready, putting them in the car seats and at the appointment.

We are having fun keeping up with your blog and seeing the pictures. THANK you for taking the time to post -- I know time is precious. Keep up the good work on the nursing/formula/pumping combo. I did the same combo with both of my kids out of necessity and it can get tiring but it's worth it. Just don't feel guilty if it's more formula than nursing ---it's whatever works for you. You are doing great and you will get those days of gentle cooing -- it's coming :)
