My baby girls are huge!
Sarah weighed in at 9.1 lbs and is 21 1/4 inches long.
Olivia weighed in at 9.8lbs and is 22 1/4 inches long.
It was a sad doctor's visit though--they both had to get 4 shots!!
Their little faces were so sad, but surprisingly they recovered from it rather well.
Just a few seconds after it was over they both stopped crying.
Also, Sarah has a rather nasty diaper rash and he gave me a prescription for a special diaper rash cream. The rash is like a yeast, which is rather common for babies he said. Sarah's head is not shaped correctly either. It's like she has a dent on one side, as if she only sleeps on that side of her head. It's making her ears uneven too. So we have to make her lay on the other side of her head as much as possible to even it out. Her head can still take a different shape so it's not a huge deal.
I asked about which milestones they should be hitting. Right now just smiling and laughing. They rarely smile and they've never laughed. He said though that since they were preemies they'll be somewhat delayed. Normally by 2 months babies have laughed but he said 3 months would be normal for our girls. In general their milestones will probably be about a month delayed because they were a month early. Sarah was really cute though, as soon as the doc came in and she saw him, she just let on this huge smile at him. It was so cute, that's really the first time that's happened. Neither of them have smiled at me :-(
Well that is all I've got for now!
